COUNTY PRINTING

County Commissioner Zelenka is re-
ported to have said that there is MOTH
ing the matter with the way the county
board is blowing in the taxpayers good
cash for printing, because ito the vic
tors belong the sroils." Let us see. If
this vicious, grating doctrine, that has
ever been the refuge behind which
unfit public officials have hid, is justified
in the matter Of printing, isn't it justi-
fled and as logical in the matter of any
other commodity or supplies the COM
missioners buy for the people? Then
apply this to lumber. Suppose Clear
water county is spending 5000 year
for lumber, and paying at the rate of
SIG per thousand feet. Along comes
responsible dealer who offers to furnish
the same identical goods for IS per
thousand feet, or at saving Of fifty
per cent Would Mr.. Zelenka say:
"That is all very well, but you must
remember that to the victors belong the
spoils. We won aud we are going to
work the people for all we can get out
Of them"
Is it on this theory that Frank
Zelenka, as city councilman has violated
the law and sold lumber to the city,
and as county commissioner has sold,
according to reliable information, more
than $500 worth OF lumber to the
county? 4
With MIR. Zelenka, the private citizen
the Republican has nothing to SAY;
with Mr.. Zelenka, county commissioner
and city councilman, this paper has
much to say, and Mr.. Zelenka has nj
right to object. AS public official;
looking after public business, and
sworn to obey the law and to serve the
people, his conduct is public property,
and it is the right Of any citizen to dis
cuss it. Since an honest newspaper
owes it to the public to serve the pub
lie, the Republican would be remiss in
its duty were it to keep silent when il
knows public official is violating the
law. And whether or not the Repub.
lican is an honest paper, and serving
the people depends entirely on whether
the Republican serves the people OF
exerts its influence to cover up politica
graft, and to whitewash public officials

STARTING INDUSTRY,
TX River Sentinel:

Elk River Sentinel:
All Orofino and particularly its news
papers, is jangling over the tribulations
Of the cement company which has been
trying for two years to build up plant
there and is having the difficulties an
independent concern usually meets in
raising capital.
New industries are founded either by
promoters or by established concerns
that desire to move or extend their OPP
erations. II the former, as at Orofino,
the raising Of capital is expensive and
difficult because investors must be per-
suaded and coaxed. The stock sales
man gets large commissions and the
securities are heavily discounted, while
accruing interest cripples further at
tempts to raise funds. Yet the whole
process is perfectly legitimate and most
Of the industries of the country have
been established in just this way.
Cement cannot, it is understood, be
made profitably in a small plant, SO the
alternative of increasing a small mill
by putting its earnings into extensions
and using them as foundation for
mortgages is impracticable.
II Orofino is to get this plant it must
expect to see all sorts OF devices used
in raising the capital. In any event
that town cannot lose because it will
have put in no money and will have
the benefit OF what is spent in con.

Pat, Blake, according to announce
ment, appeared, having with him his
company Of political acrobats, including
the Punch and Judy side show for the
children. Pat was, according to the
best historical records available, feel
ing particularly fine, and in his most
affable and pleasing manner proceeded
to put on his exhibition. 1t went some
thing like this:
"Now, ladies and gentlemen, l will
put on something to amuse the child
rem. Here is the ever-interesting
Punch and Judy, and while you have
all seen this amusing feature before, l
am sure you have never seen such
clever and obedient little fellows as
these little boys here with me. Espec-
tally let me refer to Judy Hoar, candi-
date for the important office of treas
urer OF Clearwater county. Judy rub
bered at the ladies and Pat slapped
him.
Pat.-''Name the three greatest men

Pat-"Very well, Judy. While you
are modest, and have named only two
of the greatest men alive today, you
must remember that you are out for
office and must tell these (tears and
sobs) dear, oppressed, timber-trodden
taxpayers, these honest farmers, what
you will do if they vote for you. Your
opponent, Marquett, is incompetent,
and if the people elect him he can't dc
the work, and they will have to employ
deputies to help him, Now Judy, tel
these dear taxpayers, more tears,

After some blushing, Judy Hoai
said in substance:

That is a good test.


Mr.. Zelenka, we believe, denies that
there is anything the matter with his
official conduct. More than this he in
sists that he is serving the taxpayers,
best interests when he uses some
SO, 600 per year OF public printing, with
out competition, to maintain a petty,
party paper that he and his crowd used
and will continue to use to advance
their political interests. In other words
Mr.. Zelenka insists that ii is entirely
proper for a county commissioner to
skin the taxpayers. Either that or he
does not believe what he says. Either
he does believe it is right to rob the
people for the benefit Of the Tribune
or he does not believe that vicious
doctrine of "to the victors belong the
spoils." And he either believes it is
treating the people right to use their
taxes for his and his friends politi-
cal and personal benefit or he cannot
Justify his attitude in the matter Of pub
lie printing
The facts are that Zelenka and Tor
gerson, have refused to permit the
Republican or any other paper to sub
nit bids for printing, and have used
their official positions to the end that
the Orofino Tribune has had no compe-
tition, and has charged whatever it has
seen fit. And the records show that
under this system the people have
been skinned, and the Tribune has
grated, and this skinning, and this
graft has existed because Frank Ze-
lenka and E. o. Torgerson have made
it possible, and by their votes have paid
the bills out of the public funds.
The county board will meet Monday.
At that time they can put stop to any
further graft. They can see that there
is fixed price for printing, instead Of
leaving it open for the Tribune to
charge whatever the Blake gang tool
desires to charge.
Think of it! Giving the Tribune a
printing contract without any limit to
the amount it may charge. And think
of a board of county commissioners
claiming to represent lhe taxpayers and
this board who will knowingly permit
waste of public funds amounting to,
we believe, some 81 900 year.
Isn't it time for the taxpayers to ask
the Blake gang to stop robbing the peo-
pie to maintain their newspaper, and
stop ~obbing the tax payers to pay
campaign expenses? For that IS ex-
actly what the thing amounts to. TO
support their paper they are taxing all
the people, and there is not even one
who does not contribute. How do the
Socialists like to pay taxes to feed the
Tribune that the Tribune may'suppor1
the gang that feeds it? Why not tax
the Blake gang to help support a So
cialist paper, or prohibition paper?

PEACE

If a thousandth part Of what has been
in war and preparing its
mighty engines had been devoted to
the development Of reason and the
diffusion Of Christian principles, moth
ing would have been known for cen
turtles past Of its sufferings, its i'm
poverishment, and its decentralization
but what was learned from history.

claimed to be wrought. One church
claimed to have a skirt of hers, an
other veil, another drop of her
milk, and Charles W., had a whole
museum of such relics.
Likewise the assumption of the
Virgin Mary-that is, that she was
taken up body and soul to heaven,
began to grow in the fourth and fifth
centuries, and became a dogma of
the church in the nineteenth century.
This too started in heresy and
legend.
So also the claim of Mary's I'm
maculate Conception" Now, you
must understand this. 1t does not
refer to Jesus birth of Mary by the
Holy Spirit, but it means that the Ro-
man Catholic church believes that
Mary herself was born sinless in or
der to be the ''Mother of Cod and
"Queen Of Heaven" This dogma,
after "a debate running through all
the centuries from the fifth to 1862,
was decreed by the church. Then, to
end all debate about everything that
had been debated for twelve hundred
years, in 1870 the church declared
that the Pope is infal1ible. There
fore, all things whatsoever he de-
crees have the authority Of God be-
hind them! What boots it if differ
ent Popes have in their infallibility
hurled anathemas at each other?
What difference does it make if one
Vicegerent of God says one thing and
another says another? Though they
differ as widely as the poles, or as
war and peace, or as Mariolatry is
inquitous, and Mariolary is beautiful
sanctity, both are infallibly right!
Truth is-by such history, people
have been told practically to believe
that white is black, and black is
white; that truth is error and error
truth; that the Inquisition of Spain,
France, Italy and throughout the Ro-
man Catholic domain was a blessing
and a mercy of God sent to bless the
world. And the same sort of won
derful reasoning is going on to SUBJ
vert everything American. The Dec
laration Of American independence,
the guarantees of the Constitution
of the United States, and religious
liberty are all gigantic mistakes in
the estimation of the Infallible head
of the Roman Catholic church, the
Vicegerent Of God on earth.
The Bible Doctrine as to Mary.
1t is Christmas, 1913. Protestant
ism will read the word of God and
exalt Christ as the Savior wherever
Protestants worship throughout the
world On the other hand, Roman
Catholics will read and chant in
Latin Ave Maria's and Hail Marys
throughout the world wherever they
celebrate Christmas. To put it at
it's best, Romanism will give to Mary
equal honors with Christ in all these
Christmas services, while Protestants

the first amongst the kings, princes
walk before her, let angels, proph-
cts, apostles, martyrs and all the
saints, kiss the hem of her garment
and rejoice under the shadow of her
wing. So, in our Morning Offering
we offer all through the immaculate
heart Of Mary
Here she is prayed to as full of
Grace" but the Scriptures speak of
Christ alone as "full of Grace and
Truth
Christ alone is spoken of as en-
bodying the "Godhead bodily
Christ alone is called the Morning
STAR Christ alone is pictured in
the Scriptures as wearing the "dia-
dem" Of redemption. The Bible no.
where speaks of Mary, or any one
else, as the Queen of Heaven" In
the Bible Eve is called ''The Mother
of all living"
In the Bible Jesus Christ is called
the sinners refuge" and "hope." In
the New Testament it is written, by
the Apostle John-the man who
knew both Christ and Christ's moth
er better than any of the apostles,
that The Holy Spirit is our com
forter.' In the New Testament it is
written that Christ is to be crowned
as King of Kings, and Lord of
Lords" Likewise that we are to
rest under the shadow of the AL
mighty's wings.
There is not line of Scripture to
warrant such claims for Mary-yet
these extravagant claims for Mary by
the Roman Catholic Editor are such
that neither Protestants, Jews nor
Pagans can extricate the Romanists
from the fact of the worship of Mary.
Catholicism disclaims such worship.
But when you pray to anyone, or
anything, you worship that one, or
that thing-Whether it be to God.
Mary, the Sun, the Moon, BaaI, or to
images carved by human bonds.
This is Enthusiastically the teaching
of the Bible as to idolatry and false
worship.
I myself have often seen devotees
in Europe bow before paintings and
statues of Mary and pray to her In
such cases, I pity those who thus,
misguided, worship. If Mary's spirit
in heaven knows anything about it
all, she must be very sad over their
misplaced faith. And Christ, I know,
is grieved over it, because He has
put Himself on record in the New
Testament as against all phases of
worship except that to God Which so
often He SO clearly taught. "He
ever liveth to intercede for us" That
honor is not divided with Mary or
any OF the Saints in heaven.
Whence, then, did all this system
of MariOlatry arise? 1t did not come
from the Bible.
1t came about by natural, but un-
scriptural, processes. Christ being
born of Mary, and being the founder
Of the great Christian religion, natu-
rally reverential respect grew for
His mother.
Again, the power of Motherhood
over the human mind and heart has
always been great. 1t has in it and
about it much of the worlds best
sentiment, and rightly so.
Through the first four or five cen
turtles a great number Of myths and
legends grew up about Mary the
Mother of Jesus. Some of those Ie-
gends were beautiful and some of
them grotesQue. These beautiful le-
gends had an increasing power over
many minds. People began to say
that, maybe, these legends are so.
Then, some came to say: ''I believe
they are true" Then, some said
''Of course, they are true"
