tackled the Scraps, a much faster
and stronger ship than his own. II
was almost dark when the two
boats began to fire broadsides ct
each other. They fought for about
an hour when the ships crashed In
to each other, and the brave cap
tain himself helped fasten them to-
gether. Then furiosly ragged the
battle till 1t seemed as II only the
two commanders were fighting
alone, when last shot tore away
the mast of the Scraps and her
commander surrendered to John
Paul Jones.
None too soon did the other boats
come up to take the men away
from the fighting ships, for less
than two hours later the Scraps
and Ben Homme Richard, still fas-
tened together, sank into the sea.
John Paul Jones was called q
great hero, and had great honors
showered on him in Europe and at
his home in America.

JOHN PAUL JONES.

Have you all heard of Captain
John Paul Jones and his good ship
the Bon Homme Richard?
Captain Jones was born In Scot
land, but came to Virginia when he
was but a young boy. At the
breaking out of the revolutionary
war he was made captain and
sent with the ship Ranger to cap
ture English boats. He was SO sue
cessful that the next year he was
sent out with squadron of five
ships. Not such great battleships
as we have nowadays, but mer-
chant ships fitted out with few
guns. His own ship was called the
Bon Homme Richard.
Off Marlborough head on the af-
ternoon of Sept 20, 1879. Captain
Jones spied a fleet of 40 British
merchant ships, guarded by two
frigates. At once he gave the COM

LIEsCH AGAIN FORCED TO
EAT GROW.
Rotund Publisher Sulkily get
Promptly Complies With De-
mand to Retract or Face Court
in Libel Suit.
Einar Hoidale of Minneapolis
Attacked by Yellow Journal.

Philip Liesch publisher of the Brown
Co., Journal, had to retract, take back
swallow his own mean slanderous
statements, uttered in his yellow sheet
against our former townsman, Einar
Hoidale, now of Minneapolis. The
demand to either retract or stand trial
came swift ard emphatic, there was
no parrying or mincing of words, nor
yet chance offered to flibuster. 1t
was simply you make full and fair
retraction, and that at once" That
it was tough crow, any ybody will .ad-
nit, but there was no alternative, the
dish was there, it had been prepared
by himself and served by an authority
| so it had to go down and down it went.
Here are the facts:
| Recently the news item made the
rounds that Mr.. Hoidale had filed for
congress on the Democratic ticket in
the fifth district.
Mr.. Hoidale being PRESIDENT of
Hennepin county the fact of his filing
is of no concern whatever to the voters
! locally except as news item and for
the reason that he is we'll and favor
| ably known here.
The Journal, however, with it's chro-
mic, undertaking tendencies commented
editorially onMr. Hoidale's filing in a
manner that would lead only to two
conclusions: either to crafty perso-
nal hatred against Mr.. Hoidale, or an
avowed purpose to ''stir up" some
thing, to incite or disseminate dissens-
ion. The language employed and
appellations used were at this time ab-
solutely uncalled for and so rancorous
that no honorable man would stand
for them, consequently proceedings
against the publisher we're at once in
stituted with the result of the follow
ing full and complete retraction:
New Ulm review., 1910-08-03
''The above statements and
each Of them are hereby re-
tracted.'
Brown Co. Journal, July 3Oth.

This adds another to the many in
stances where this publisher has al
lowed his venOmous tendencies to
| overstep all bounds Of responsibility
| attaching to the newspaper enterprise
The trouble with publisher Liesch is
that he entertains a perverted idea of
the publishers calling. Insteadgof ad-
herring to the principle that news
paper is a medium of moulding public
opinion for higher ideals and that
therefore it's aim should be to elevate,
to inspire and encourage the reader
to attain to a higher standard of NOR
ality, he rather caters to the sensa-
tional, to the lower proclivities of
man, appealing to instincts which,
when aroused, must disrupt the public
and prove baneful to the community.
Also he entertains an entirely wrong
conception of the community regard
ing the intelligence and taste of the
people among whom he circulates his
popO'' LIZ oOOo uu oOOtu w huOW GHdL
it is obnoxious, indeed, to the intelli-
gent reader to see local paper re-
plete with yellow stuff and to have it's
best citizens from time to time attack
ed, say nothing about the ridiculous
hypocracy of the publisher who at the
same time parades himself as pro-
tector and propagation of public inter-
ests, when in reality he simply graft
fies some personal hatred or seeks his
own personal gain. Nor can any
community approve of having itself
adversely advertised to the outside
world.
When viewed from standpoint of
honorableness, nobleness, highmind-
ness, sterling worth and good citizen
ship generally a comparison between
Liesch and his victims becomes so
ridiculous, so absolutely out of line
that it is nothing short of disparge-
ment to these men.
Publisher Llesch makes very
meager and cowardly attempt to shift
the responsibility of the article in
question. That he did not write it, we
will gladly grant him, but that he in
spired it,there let fair minded public
judge.
1t would seem that with the costly
experience incurred in contempt and
libel court proceedings which already
cost him several hundred dollars that
the past had furnished wholesome
lesson to this publisher. However,
time passes on, while Liesch still keeps
up his old methods. Does he apprec-
late the value of a good name? No
doubt he does for himself but not for
his fellow men. Wonder, if his mea-
tai capacity can grasp the meaning OF
the words of thespoet: He who robs
me of my good name, robs me of that
which not enriches him, but makes me
poor indeed"
