action for $4,000 for libel have been
filed here. The complainant is John
Niblo, and the defendant is Attorney
Ernest D. EIDE, of this city. Mr.. Niblo

maries, and claims Mr.. EIDE damaged
his character in a letter he wrote a
few days before the election. He
claims the letter was generally circu-
lated.

which was strictly private, to a per-
sonal friend, and that how the letter
became generally circulated he does
not know, though he intimates that it
was reproduced in an effort to make
political capital out of it. The publica-
ton of a reply to the letter, both in
circular form and in a local newspa-
per, over the signature of the majority
republican committee of the county,,
Mr.. EIDE claims damaged his character.
and a strong part of his defense will
be a counter claim against Mr.. Niblo
for damages in the sum of $500 300.
