WILLIE WANTS. O-KNOW

Referring to the matter Of the Uni
type note, in which the Fidelity
Bank, without presenting the note
for payment, wrote on the back, mo
attention paid. Send to j. L. Fitz-
gerald for collection, the Orofino
Tribune, official mouthpiece for Jim
Blake, explains that such action is
usual. If one is to give credance to
street rumor the Tribune does the
Fidelity no wrong in this statement.
Personally this is the third time the
Fidelity has played this kind of a
dirty trick. on the Clearwater Repub-
lican, and we are assured by /. r..
Grow, who ought to know, that it is
customary and usual for the Fidelity
Bank of Orofino to do this kind of a
banking business. We had our
suspicious all along that this was the
kind of hairpin old Jim Blake is; a
treacherous old tarantula, that lays in
wait for its victims, striking behind
the back from ambush. And Jim
recommends one Fitzgerald as the
proper person to get the money. We
have seen something of this gentle
man S mode of procedure. He is the
fellow who hangs around the Fidelity
Bank, perhaps looking for flies for the
old tarantula on the inside of the hole.

Harlan, Who Is This Man Grow!

The Orofino Tribune is very much
exercised about the identity of one
Hall, appointed road overseer. A
reader of the Clearwater Republican
propounds the following questions to
County Commissioner Harlan;
Before you answer Mr.. Grow s
question as to who Mr.. Hall is, |
would like to have you answer me the
following questions so | can be in
position to judge the motive behind
such foolish questions:
/. lis Mr.. Grow the editor of the
Orofino Tribune, the paper that pub
lished the gang dope during the last
campaign in the interest of the "dear
peepul?
2. Is this the same Crow who
charged the deer peepul 10 cents a
line for county printing, land got it
from the gang) when the Clearwater
Republican offered to do the same
work for three cents line?

" 1t would be almost amusing to
know just how the gang would have
managed to run Clearwater county
two years longer, had they been re-
elected. Even the most outrageous
stretching of credit and evasion of
law would not have enabled these fell
lows to have fooled the people much
longer. But how would they have
run the county?

Once upon time there was nice,
fat calf that had snap. 1t was kept
in warm barn, fed all the milk it's
many gave, and given little juicy
bran mash on the side. And the
calf waxed fat and was happy, and
the world was bright. But one day a
cruel man came along and kicked the
calf out of the warm barn. The calf
was put in pasture, where the grass
was short and the picking slim, and
the calf missed the warm bran mash
and the barn. If you'll apply this
story to the calf that is now bawling
its head off in the Orofino Tribune you
can understand why the calf is bawl-
ing. The Tribune is missing its warn
bran mash.

3. Is this the same Crow who for
two years has been secretary of the
county fair association; who as secre-
tary paid his own printing bills, while
the farmers premiums were not paid?
a. Is he the same Crow that got
the retiring board to saddle on the
deer peepul some more of his print
ing snaps, and thereby Illustrate the
will of the people he pretends to
lover?
S. Is he the same Crow who, while
holding the office of probate judge,
loaded up his office with blanks
enough to last two generations, vio-
lating the law to do so?
6. Is he the same Crow that
pulled down almost 1000 for print
ing from Clearwater county since the
last county election, much of which
could have been purchased for thirty
cents on the dollar, or at a saving of
$40 on every 500 paid 1. R. Crow?
Z. Is he the same Crow who tried
to re-elect the gang that run the
county in debt over $l26, 600, the re-
suit of exhorbitant prices for print
ing, cruising deals, ad infinitum, and
all the while trying to make the
people think he was working for the
interests of the people? Is he the

CURIOUS FACTS
Are Coming to Light in Connec.

ton in the Suez.

CAIRO. March . . s 80 .-- Some curious
facts are coming 10 light regarding
the Turkish expedition on suez,
through the reports OF reconnaissance
parties which have been securing the
sands In the rear OF the retreaters.
On the bodies or some dead Turks
we're found cartridge clips containing
dummy cartridges which held nc
powder Probably corrupt contractors
were responsible
All reports. however. agree that
the Turkish artillery vas OF excel
lent quality. Moreover. they took the
utmost pains to gel their guns away
safely on their retreat Not the
slightest sign has been discovered to
indicate that any of the artillery was
buried or hidden before they turned
back from the shores OF the canal
In preparing the way for their big
guns TO descend finally from the last
range of hills, seven miles from the
British front. It is stated that the
Turks with great care and Infinite
method, trod and retrod and smooth
ed q path IN the sand The
result presented fairly hard, smooth
surface. admirable for the purpose
Presumably the tramping down OF
this road was the series of movements
which aviators and outposts reported
as .aimless walking backward and
