THIRD BUTT.

article devoted to me on the first
page. 1t ought to have been trans
lated. How Mr.. Bailey can expect
anybody to know what he Is talking
about without furnishing a key is be-
yond me- | give 1t up. Mr.. Bailey
denies that the Democratic county
central committee edits the News and
then goes on to say. LAS to ourselves,
we, us, l." and etc. Well, l will pass
1t ND to the readers of the News. Per-
haps they understand by a sort OF
intuition. They use their brains to
grease a gimlet; don't.
But, laying all this aside, will
take up another matter Mr.. Bailey
says-I know Mr.. Bailey says this
from the way the thing Is put to-
! gether, and would not for the world !
| lay the blame on the Democratic |
county central committee. Mr.. Bad
ley says,"If you were not too coward
iy to come out in the open and be
known as | am known, instead of
hiding behind a goat skin to misrep-
resent" ETC. | am modest, Mr.. Bad
ley. There Is something to me be-
sides merely egotism. Again, ]
shouldn't for all the world like to
be known as you are known" am
not Republican to Republicans,
Democrat to Democrats, a Socialist
to Socialists, an Independent to In
dependents, bribe-taker and a
spokesman. And should have to be
all these to be known as you are
known. You say that you know me,
Mr.. Bailey, and, IL you do. you know
tell the truth. You have got all
the affidavits, Mr.. Bailey, so why
don't you open up the batteries. Now
2 let us consider that part of the SEN
tence, hiding behind a goat skin
4 where you can misrepresent." Isn't
: that just the evidence person
8 would need to use Ibis brains to
y grease a gimlet." You are public
y character, Mr. Bailey, and how can
y poor l misrepresent SO great man
d as you are, Mr.. Bailey? The truth
e or falsehood of any statement does
d not depend upon anyone's personal
ity. A truth is a truth, no matter
h who utters it, and so with false
re hood. l said you were given thu
3 nomination for clerk on the Demo
D. cratic ticket in exchange for the sup
a port of the Caldwell News. cal
n that bribery. You may call it wha
to you please, Mr.. Bailey. Before yo
n were nominated on the Democrat
ticket you were pledged to vot
&c another ticket, were you not, MI
b. Bailey? You made sudden chang'
ey Mr.. Bailey, and whyfor? Squirl
ne out of 1t the best way you can. You
ell friend Mr.. Hawks did nearly as ba,
an He wanted a soft birth on the R,
to publican ticket, failing in that /
took the Democratic nomination
nd Are these evidences of good moral
'ut Mr.. Bailey? Did Mr.. Hagelin
wn Mr.. Tucker these things? You m,
sci pull the wool over the eyes of son
ION simple church men and women, al
emit a few old soldiers, but your doub
M dealing hypocrisy will not work +,
Wy along the line. You talk about m,
airs singing, Mr.. Bailey. What do "
My call those stories you are circulate
Ilso over here on the Payette about 20

true, appear in the News? Or wo
the Democratic county central CO
une pittee which has bought your boo
lion breeches and all, permit you to
evil them in. Mr.. Bailey?
so You say, Mr.. Bailey, "AnyG

etary ,rything that you hold, or that
