The Closing Night.

The Kemptons played their
last nights engagement on Satur-
day the 11th and contrary to the
usual rule the play was generally
considered the best of the series.
They presented Brown from
Missouri" and delighted a large
audience. In this production Miss
Adele Bradford appears to the
best possible advantage. The role
seems to fit her in every way and
this too may be said of Clare
Hatton and ]. J. Craig, the stage
william of the play. These people
are all clever in their respective
parts and did good work in the
previous presentations but they
simply excel in the play above
mentioned. This week they play
Delta and next they will entertain
the Gunnison tunnel visitors at
Montrose.

Why This AnImus?

In last weeks issue of the Journal il
makes a most brutal and objectionable
attack upon the good people of Tunnel
ton. The columns OF the Journal have
apparently been thrown open to the scan
dal-mongers and irresponsible who desire
to vent their spleen on the good private
citizens. 1t does not alone attack the
men, but it attacks the unofensive women.
The Journals attacks on the private citi-
zens of our neighboring town is unparal-
leled in the history Of Preston newspa-
perdom.
There must be motive for it. What
is it? The casual observer can readily de.
sign the reason. A goodly number Of the
male population have never subscribed TO
ring rule and machine politics in Preston.
This has placed them under the ban Of
the Journal and it seems to take a fend-
ish delight in throwing wide open its
columns 10 irresponsible parties 10 villify
and abuse the good people Of that town
II reached it, limit in its last attack and
from the expressions heard it will not be
surprising il the outraged people do not
visit their indignation upon the guilty
parties.
We take IL that Mr. Whetsell himself
would BE- the last one TO remain silent
and calm II such unjust and uncalled for
attacks were visited upon those whom he
held dear.
To is passing strange that Mr. Whctsell
treats politics as q personal afront. No
one objects 20 him indulging himself to
his hearts content in a political way.
Those who play the game may expect the
postmaster-editor 90 give an exhibition in
his choice yernacular when be is reminded
that the average voter OF Preston no
longer accepts the Journals political sor-
mons as strictly orthodox a legion Of
the stalwat Republican sons Of Preston
believe that the Journal is too closely al
lied with those who make a profession Of
machine pol.tics
% Mr. Whet5ell has been innocenuy
imposed upon by those parties who have
been sending in the Wllainous attacks.
upon the good people Of Tunnelton bel
owes it b. himself 20 ferret them out and
piiIJry them az an evidence that such
damnable attacks upon innocent PEOPLE
do not meet Die appreciation. n Doe does

COURTHOUSE CONTROVERSY.
Why County Seat Should Be Reloeat-
ed as Seen by Unbiased(7) Paper.

Editor Argus:
And so Terra Alta wants thecounty seat.
and her leading newspaper last week de-
voted nearly full page to advancing rea-
sons why the county would be benefited
by the proposed change.
Mind you, the county, the people OF the
whole county, for of course no town big
or small can have any claims for its own
sake alone Except Terra Alta).
A whole page of reasons, / say, were
advanced by the Terra Alta paper, and
we are all now thoroughly convinced that
the change should be made-so saws the
paper. Why we never saw it this way be-
fore is a mystery, but the Terra Alta board
OF trade and its newspaper have now
taken the scales from our eyes. Let there
be great rejoicing, for Preston is saved
and Terra Alta is the Mecca Let all eyes
be turned in holy approval to Terra Alta
