ASHCRAFT HANDS
ANTAGONIST ONE

Referring to a paragraph in the
Coldwater paper two weeks ago (the
Iateness of our answer is due to the
fact that we were unable to secure
a copy of the paper in our neighbor-
hood,) we cite the paragraph as a
sample of the slush that the Coldwa-
ter paper has been dishing out to its
readers ever since the controversy be-
tween certain lawless citizens OF
Coldwater, and the better element of
soriety, started few weeks ago. If
there are any more or bigger liars
than Phillips in Mercer County they
havelA' gone into training yet.
The Chronicles defiant attitude to-
ward the organized Grange of the
county indicates that the business
people uphold the editor. And this
Is the regard that the farfers who
have been spending thousands of dol
lars with Coldwater business men.
God help town that considers man
like Phillips a representative citi-
zen.
The petition signed by nearly all
of the business men of Coldwater
asking the Prosecutor to not do his
duty and that Codwater wanted 20 60
on ding the things prescribed, that
says they shall not do, is about time
for law abiding citizens to take a
hand and see that the law is enrorc-
ed. if Coldwater wants to put up a
wall around itsef and hold high-jinks
thertin, in defiance of law and public
opinion, citizens outside are unwill-
ing to see them disgrace themselves
and SURROUNDING country. All that
any criminal wants is to be let alone.
All Phillips hants is to be left alone,
and Sabbath discretion go on unmo-
Tested.
Coldwater has always been about
the last town in the County to heed
the Sunday closing laws and only a
few years ago the saloons were run
wide open on Sunday until public
opinion got so strong an dthe laws So
stringent that they were forced to
yield, but they made an awful howl
about being prosecuted. This busi-
ness will be seen through and the
sooner you get the facts under the
skin of your ivory dome the better
it will be for your constituents.
If Coldwater don't want the busi-
ness OF hundreds of farmers in their
trade territory as voiced by their ed
itor Phillips, why we can do only
odr best to accommodate them. Cold
water needs an editor who has some
claim on merit.
Some of Coldwaters business men
are anxious for the growth of the |
town. Get an editor that is a pro-
gressive man and watch results |
Your paper is a weak spot in your
development.

people of the United States and our
allies supplies Of wheat and flour at
fair prices.
The grain corporation will handle
