= In regard to the statement OF the

KNOW THE TRUTH,

No movement for a clean CITY. a
clean county, or clean state, was ev-
er begun without meeting horde of
hes and calumnies. The present fight
for better Devils Lake is no excep-
don. Since Tuesday morning of last
week, no conceivable lie, no species of
calumny, no sly insinuation and no
half truth, has been overlooked by the
parties who are in sympathy with the
cause of booze and law-breaking in
this city. We expected as much, al
though we hardly looked forward to
che immediate and unscrupulous at
tempt to create a false impression
made last week.
To the public at large we merely
say "Wait and know the truth" When
all the facts are brought to light it will
be found that Devils Lake has been
ruled by the most corrupt and unscru-
pulous combination of public officials
and law breakers North Dakota has
ever known.
Don't credit every rumor manufact-
ured by malice Or invented by the self
interest of parties connected with law
breaking in Devils Lake. They have
the desire and are taking the time to
circulate every false and untrue state
ment which their minds can invent
and their malice sanction. If a hun
dred men were detailed to trace their
Hes they could not hope to run down
all of them.
They have traduced the publisher of
adis7 paper and, by falsehood, insinua-
ton, absolute disregard for truth, and
unbelievable afrrontery, attempted to
discEedft him as well as the cause he
advocates. They have gone 80 far as
TO make 1t unpleasant for a citizen
70 speak up and tell the truth on the
subject; They have made IL 80 that
many citizens are afraid 10 be- seen

is 1T FAIR?

We present the following facts fo
he consideration of the citizens an
axpayers of Devils Lake.
City Attorney F. T. Cuthbert is
paid five hundred dollars per year
by Devils Lake to represent the
city in all actions
There is an ordnance (Page
104, Sections 276-280, Charters and
Ordinances of the city of Devils
Lake, against the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors.
By taking part in the defense of
parties charged with violating the
state law against such law-break-
ing Attorney Cuthbert disqualifies
himself to act as the legal repre-
sentative Of the City in enforcing
the city ordinances on this sub
ject.
We ask if this is fair to the tax
payers of Devils Lake and is At
torney Cuthbert fulfilling his duty
as a public official. Is he not
serving two masters and which
do you believe is getting the worst
Of it?

fame is evidently making things warm
for the people of Judith Gap, Mon
tana, for in his issue of the Journal
Of September c"-1. appears a piece of
boiler plate which goes under the ce y
ton of "Coo!:-:S, ::.,~estions for the
Hot Weather" OF course we do not
know what sort of climate Sam has
got into, but either he is little bit
behind times or else cen see another
summer coming. We could almost bet
dollars to doughnuts that Sam made
up his paper with his overcoat on,
standing next to rcd hot stove and
singing I'm the Good Old Summer
Time" or else this would not have
slipped by. His Judith Gap Journal
however is an Interesting sheet and
had his hot weather suggestions got
under his department of "Some
Thoughts Without Reason" they no
doubt would have been in keeping
with what might be expected from

GOVERNOR QUITS VAUDEVILLE,

1t is indeed funny what rain will do
for fellow. 1t was Governor Burke's
salvation last week while he was max
ing campaign tour He had been
playing to several poor houses, putting
on his one act turn, making one night
stands, when the rain came I'D and
sort of put damper on what promis-
ed to be continuous poor houses. AS
a matinee idol he would no doubt have
been a success as it is understood
that the women and children turned
out to admire him. The rain came
and spoiled the show, however, but the
governor was undaunted and will ap-
pear on the stage again the book and
lyrics to his new turn having been
prepared by Colonies Whitehead and
Bloom, with music by George B. Win
ship. It is thought that the governor
will have more success in his new ven
ture than he did in vaudeville. The
musical play is said to abound in
! comedy, showing Honest" John first
raising the mortgage on the home and
going out in quest OF a bigger fortune,
finally securing that $4,000, that Col
Brewer has been talking about. The
chorus is made up entirely of demo-
Gratis and Is headed by Colonel Hill
dreth. There will be a short vaude-
vile bill between the first and second
acts in which the county candidates
of the various counties visited will be
allowed to do turn. The whole pro-
duction will be under the supervision
OF the Democrats of North Dakota
Battleship Brockhoff handling the cleo
trical effects when Grand Forks is
visited. The Fargo News is said to be
doing the booking and the candy kid
or rather Almond, Of the same sheet
will furnish advance press notices
The Grand Forks Herald will probably
get the job of billing the show as usu.
al, printing the lithos and date lines.
While the cast will be small it is said
TO be made up of capable actors, the
scenery being on an elaborate scale.
Owing to the pyrotechnical display to-
ward the final of the last act some
time will be necessary to change the
scenery and during the interval the
audience will be requested to remain
seated. Ladies will be asked to re-
move their hats. The new musical
play has not been named, thousands Of
titles having been suggested by Col
onel@ Brewer none Of which appealed
to the Democrats as probable house
getters, as a result the production will
be taken on a short transforming
tour through the small towns before
christened. This Is also done An Or

of breaking law, there would be no
necessity for that; law. The very fact
that, the prohibition law is enforced

law, and where the state shares with
him the blood money he takes in

Of both legality and responsibility. And
it puts the seller under terror of law

him lawless and an outlaw and some

The Grand Forks Herald kids the
Minneapolis Journal for referring to
London's "teaming'' population. The
Kenmare Journal gets facetious be-
cause a neighboring paper speaks of

Crazy Public Opinion: The effort
of the law and order element at Devils
Lake Monday night this week to clean
the town resulted in the arrest of sew
eral blind-piggers and keepers of dis
orderly houses. The attempt to as
sassinate D. v. Brennan one of the
leaders of the citizens who favor law
enforcement was a cowardly act on
the part, of the assailant, but shows
the feeling and what the bad element
will do when convenient. Even to the
casual observer, it has been patent
for several months that Devils Lake
Is a wide-open town, where blind pig
gers and gamblers are permitted to
ply their trade without much restraint.
A reckoning, though delayed, was sure
to come, and the better element of
the citizens in time will be victorious.
Devils Lake Is the county seat of Ram
sey county, is growing rapidly and is
one Of the best of the smaller cities
in the state. The Opinion hopes that
lsw and order will be the rule rather
than the exception, that life and pro-
perry will be as safe in Devils Lake
as in the best governed cities Of the
country.

COMMENTS

Bismarck Tribune: The city of Dew
lis Lake seems to need a wholesome
cleaning out. Editor Brennan of the
Devils Lake Inter-Ocean was shot thru
the arm, probably by some one aggriev-
ed at his stand for the abolishing of
blind pigs and the tough element. The
ministers of the city publish an open
letter calling upon public officials to
do. their duty and clean up the town,
and there lie a wholesome public de-
mand for better methods. Devils Lake
is good, healthy growing town with
lot Of splendid people, and an ele-
ment of toughs that is difficult to han
die, but that can be eliminated with
the proper public spirit and determine
ton.
