THAT .EXPLANATION.-

Whom the gods would destroy they
first make mad
That the great and good reformer
of the esteemed Herald is mad can not
be doubted by anyone who has read
the last two issues OF his paper.
On two or three occasions recently
The Evening Times has reminded the
sanctimonious Mr.. Winship of his
promise 10 explain his connection with
the public printing combine steal and
that he was rather SLOW about so
doing. Yesterday Mr.. Winship APP
peared in print TO admit that he was
a party to the steal and that he did
charge the excessive prices. but he
attempts 10 clear himself by saying
that methods similar 10 this have
been followed of late years in every
line of business, wholesale and retail"
Here We have a man who for years
has been laying down hard and fast
rules for other people to follow. max
ing a confession of guilt that should
cause even his brazen cheeks to burn
with shame. He justifies his course
by explaining that other people have
done the same thing. In other words,
Mr.. Winship engages in a dishonest
transaction, and reluctantly admits it.
He was party to a conspiracy to
rob-and did rob-the taxpayers of the
state. violation not only of the statute
law but the moral law. both of which.
for many years. he has pretended to
uphold.
In this pitiful predicament We leave
him to look. if he can, into the eyes
of the honest people of Grand Forks
whom he has been deceiving for a
quarter of a century. the while pre-
tending to be moral leader, while in.
fact, according to his own account, he
ments so needful in the career of
man successfully engaged in taking
other peoples money by f1agrantly dis
honest processes.
But for The Evening Times the
printing steal would probably never
have been exposed, and the hypocriti-
cal Herald would have gone on in its
successful career of deception and
double-dealing.
For years the Herald. by it's policy
of accusatio and by it's lying insinu-
atoms against those public men who
have accomplished something of en-
during worth for Grand Forks and the
state, has been serious detriment
to local progress. The selfish, jealous
and revengeful course of the Herald
editor has been a serious handicap
upon the growth of city otherwise
destined to outstrip all rivals. This
agreement among disinterested non
residents and frequently admitted by
many of those living and doing bust
ness here.
In revealing this embittered in
dividual to the public gaze in his true
colors. The Evening Times believes
that it has performed a far-reaching
public service.
AS to Senator Hansbrough. he has
withstood the opposition and wicked
falsehoods of Mr.. George B. Winship
for a great many years, meanwhile
growing stronger day by day in the
confidence and esteem of the honest,
unprecedented masses. Nothing that
the Herald may now say and nothing
that it may reproduce in its filthy COL

Incidentally it should be remember

1t takes much more than roasts for the

Chimney Blaze at 7s South Main
Street at Ten o'clock Last

from a chimney on the four-ienement

South Main street. The whole roof
looked as If it were ahre, for the sparks
were being scattered over it and the

only the woodwork about the chimney
which was scorehed.
The FIRE company was called out twice

were seriously injured and q further
considerable humber slightly hurt. The
latter included many police and nremen
who were almost blinded with cayenne

tracted owing to the use BY the "de.

ing chairs as chields. The first two
who got through the doors were knocked

NJ. Louis Pepine, prefect Of Paris, and
other high officials and the newspapers
OF all shades Of opinion deprecate the
violent incidents. 1t Is said that the
clergy have done their best by advice
to their congregations to remain calm,
but without avail the militant catholics
being firmly resolved to resist what they
term the spolation Of the many Paris
churches, containing many millions Of
francs worth of jcwelry, military medals
and decorations given BY devotees as
thank offerings, II is charged that the
blame for the recent conflicts attaches
to the minister Of the interior because Of
his order that the inventory Of The
churches should be carried cut before the
regulations under the separation law are
drawn up definitely. This leaves the
Catholics uncertain regarding the event,
ual fate of church property, and their
doubts on this subject have brought
about their resistance to the order and
its results.
