Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1906-05-24

LAST WEEK Emmons county was
flooded with a sheet gotten up in news
paper form containing Rex. Beech's
Booklovers' Magazine rigmarole on
''rhe Looting OF Alaska. Ii is be-
lieved that the Emmons county ad-
dresses were sent to Fargo by that
honorable, conscientious gentleman in
Linton who held an appointive office
for eight years under the republican
| organization of this state, and then be-
came violent reformer as soon as he
failed Of reappointment-the same
nice, clean, honorable gentleman Who
sent u boy at night to steal his neigh
boris hay, and who sells corner lots
with a string tied to EN-.
| But the republicans Of this county
need have no fear that the efforts
of Mileage-t;rabber Spalding and
Would BE Governor Winship TO rule
or ruin the republican party Of this
state will bear fruit All over the
thirty-nine counties Of the state, out
side of Trail, Grand Forks. Bottineau,
Steele and Griggs countless the gang
OF demagogues who would rather turn
the state over to the democrats than
TAU of securing office for themselves
are meeting with the frosty reception
that their cold-blooded conspiracy
so richly deserves. The Booklovers'
Magazine TRADE, written by an ex-
saloonkeeper OF Nome. who did not
get To Nome until after Alexander
Mckenzie lett. has disguised and
nallseated magazine readers all over
the state. For its first widely-adver-
tiSed number there was 4 great de-
mand; but the manifest malice of il.
and the many statements as to North
Dakota affairs that were known to be
lies, caused its readers to doubt it's
charges and to drop the cowardly,
backcapping yarn as one would any
other mess OF filth. AS an instance:
The newsdealer here in Linton at
first received and sold thirty-tive
copies of the Booklovers'. But. as the
readers delved deeper into the villain
ously malicious stuff, they quickly
got enough of 1t. The demand dropped
from month tn month. until at the
present time not a single copy OF the
magazine is sold in Linton.

And that. republicans of Emmuns
county, is the magazine containing
the same story that those discredited
and defeated sore-heads Of the Spald-
ing WinShip Good Government
League" have been rushing into the
various counties nf the state n few
weeks before the day set Tor the
primary election. Mind you. not a
word Is said, hls been said or can be
said against the republicans who are
holding the various state offices in
North Dakota, most of whom are
serving their first term. Not a single
reason Is given why these men should
