ness Of the incumber and the
condition of his office; or are
you SO prejudiced that you can
not give credit where credit is
due. We read in our local paper
that States Attorney Maennel had
secured: a bunch Of money from
Burleigh county, fees in the
Bickford case, ard if this is SO
he should have credit for the
same as an officer, but right on
the same subject we read it in
the Leader an article clipped
from the Bismarck Palladium
giving the credit all to States At
torney Berndt Of Burleigh coun-
ty. You make comment on this
and never mention Maennel's
name. The question is, who is
correct the Palladium and your
comment or our local paper.
Give the facts and let the people
judge. There is too much accursa-
ton and not enough Of facts
stated in newspapers. Our neigh
Dor the Benedict Banner gave us
a nice sample of this last week,
when he opened up a two column
with flaring headlines, throwing
out some sweeping assertions
made by someone who wished to
stir him up, but he must have
gone to sleep Immediately after
writing the headline as he told
us nothing. What we want is
the official report on the Off
cials, and now is the time to
give us this report when there is
no election Immediately in sight.
A full report for the past four
years on all the county official
and the people will be able
from this report to separate the
goats from the sheep.
Come out with the facts, as
the people demand them, and
spare no one, as Mclean county
is stirred us as never before in
it's history and will keep up this
sentiment until justice is done

to turn in and make it interest

clans and secure representation at
the county seat. The Banner is
outspoken and invites the use Of
its columns by people who will
assist in discussing the question
of county government. The Ban
ner draws a line including Garri-
son and Turtle Lake and says
that part Of the county has
never been able to secure recog-
milton at the county seat. Of
course this is not literally true as
Garrison has had the sheriff's
office and the office of senator
and Turtle Lake has had the Of
flee of county superintendent and
senator and DOgden has had the
office of superintendent and
representative all within the last
few years. It is true, though
that thee north part Of the coun-
ty has always been mighty
stingy with it's candidates on
election day and many a good man
has suffered defeat for the lack
of support from his home and
neighboring precincts. The tax
payers up that way should be
