It is hardly to be expected that the

ate their, mighty dream of a country

IS far behind the Bolsheviki, and will
aot catch up with them for long time.
1t may be their lot, at least, that OF their

may have to give way to government

Editor Review
"A GRIEVOUS MISTAKE.

Under the above leading, Mr.. Liesch
in his last issue of TIE Brown County
Journal, last Saturday gave vent to some
Of his spleen, of which his rotund cor
porosity seems to contain quite little,
and some of which it appears necessary
for him to spit out once in a while. He
doesn't mention any names, but it is
easy to be seen that the main object
of this yitriolic attack is DR., T.. A.
Fritscke.
Inthe first place, would it not be better,
from the standpoint of what is good for
the city, to quit talking about that
meeting, and to encourage and appreciate
the good work which DR.. Fritsche has
done since the meeting referred to, even
| if that had been mistake?
Let Mr.. Liesch ratl er rem ember some
of the grievous mistakes he himself
has made. Let him think back not any
longer than two years ago when he, with
out any foundation except TIE say-so
of a stranger, Mr.. Hebron, whose glar-
Ling incompetency was later revealed in
court, besmirched tie name OF local
citizen, Ernst Wicherski, and was hailed
into court for it. Let MIR. Liesch re-
member how, the day before his trial in
dis trict court, he saw from TIE utter
collapse of Mr.. Eeilbron's case against
Itle city, his own coming defeat. Then,
wien he saw that lie had made "a grew
ous mistake, and wanted to5craWl out
Eof his position as gracefully and with
as little loss of morey as possible, at
that time Dr.. FritscEe, then Mayor, was
Igood enough for Mr.. Liezch to- look to,
Ito Eelp him out of his predicament;
tEen DR.. Fritscke was good enough for
Liesch to get out Of his much needed
rest in the early hours of the morning,
and for Liesch to plead with him to
set Mr.. WicEerski to accept a settle
ment and not to insist on trial OF his
case. Then DR.. Fritsche was good enough
to spend an entire day away from his
Ipractice for tie purpose of making this
ISSCClcllcuI Will 1AcSCI, III VIZ SAM
of harmony in tie city. ,55 S z=
Now this self-appointed guardian Of
the harmony and director of tie policy
of this city comes to tie conclusion that
DR.. FritscLe has mace "a grievous
mistake Common decency would say
to him that, knowing that if Dr. Fritsche
made mistake it was one of judgment
and not Of intention, he should remember
the act Of friendship performed for him
VIXEN he was in trouble, and also re-
member that it is not to the best interests
Of the city to have old sores opened.
But Mr.. Liesch seems only to consider
the interests of the city when they are
at tie same time to his own interest.
If Mr.. Liesch is not careful, he may get
another dose of Mr.. WicEerski's medi-
cine, but let him remember that DR..
Fritscke may rot tken be in position
to be appealed to as on tie former
occasion, to get the cEestnuts out OF TIE
fire for him.
