JOURNAL-PRESS vs.. TRANSCRIPT
ST. Cloud journal Press: The Little
Falls Transcript does not always ap-
prove of the course of the Journal
Press, for which this paper is devoutly
thankful. The Transcript accused one
G. B. Buckman of about every crime
IN both the catalogue and decalogue-
and then for the price of postofiice
supported him so unblushingly that it
had to retract its attacks on Buck
man s opponent, Mr.. Llndbergh. Now
the Transcript is giving both Buokman
and Lindergh certificates of character,
because 1t wants to keep the posto&ce.
This matter is SO thoroughly under
stood in the Sixth district that when
ever the Transcript takes any posi-
tion, the natural conclusion is that
there is something in it for Wheatje. -
