SAYS IT WAS NEGLECT
Ben Whitehead Claims That House
Had Been Left Unrepafed, for
Some Time.

Wilhston State: The editor of the
State has been sued, or rather, papers
have. been served upon him for the
attorney for a man who wants $3.50
and a whole lot of damages" He
wants the damages" worse than he
wants the $3.50. The copy of the pa
pers served possess no signature. but
it is stated that Grand Forks at
torney is acting for the man who
wants the money. 1t might be claim
ed that there is really $147 due, but
even when $50 was offered there was
no one who wanted to accept it, and
the letter in which the offer was made
was ignored.
Every man should pay his rent. and
pay it promptly. but when there is
a hunger for something more and a
person will not be satisfied until it
is given over the lawyers must be
called upon to say who is right and
who is wrong. The editor of the
State regrets to be made a defend
ant in such a case but he would pre-
fer to defend suit than to make a
lot of long neglected repairs upon a
house. Better men than the editor
of the State have been sued. Courts
of justice have threshed over the diff
ferences between men who have been
builders of cities, who have been
philanthropic, have been helpful to
make the communities in which they
resided at all times.
