FIRE IN ORPHEUM BLOCK
LAST MONDAY, MAY q

But for the presence, of mind Of
Miss Beryl Humphrey in an emer.
gency last Monday, the Olpheum
block would have perhaps been de
stroyed by fire.
Miss Humphrey was washing he1
hair when she noticed that the ell
was leaking from a kerosene stove
end just as she glanced toward the
stove the Oil caught fire. In her en-
deavor to put out the fire Miss
Humphreys hair was singed, but
she succeeded in carrying the stove
the whole length of the hall and
throwing the stove out the door
Mr.. Bourassa of the Grand View ho-
tel ti1en came to the rescue with a
hose from his hotel and extinguisheo
the flames. In the meantime the
fire department had been called, but
the fire was out when they arrived
on the scene.

JUDGE Conner Restraints Pay
MENT OF FRAUDULENT WARRANT

Judge Conner, last week, issued a
temporary order, restraining County
Treasurer Movius from paying coun-
to warrant No. 9444 in the sum
of $7,812.00 issued to one Joseph
f. Dolin last November, in payment
for the printing of the primary bal
lots, which ballots cost the taxpay-
ers about $3.50 for every vote cast
at the primary election. !.
County Attorney Gunther started
suit several weeks ago to stop the
payment Of this fraudulent warrant
and filed his papers in the district
court before Judge Conner. Mr.. Do
lin Immediately employed the law
firm of Babcock & Ellery to defend
the warrant secured by fraud and
this firm filed a. demurrer to the
pleadings, contending that the peti-
ton did not contain allegations con-
stituting a cause of action and other
stereotyped objections and the case
was argued two weeks ago last Sat
urday by Attorneys Gunther and
Cudhie for the taxpayers and Bah
cock & Ellery for Mr.. Dolin.
The producers news. [volume] (Plentywood, Mont.) 1918-1937, 1919-05-30

After two hours Of very heated ar
gument the case was taken under ad-
visement by Judge Conner, who few
days after overruled the demurrer and
a week ago last Wednesday issued
the order restraining the payment of
the fraudulent warrant on the part
of Treasurer Movious pending the
trial of the case at the next term
of court, when the chances are that
the fraudulent order will be cancelled
and annulled and thus the fragrant
and criminal attempt to defraud
Sheridan county out of nearly $1,000
will be nipped in the bud, and the
taxpayers money saved for them.
This warrant was issued at the
famous November meeting, when
flushed by the apparent victory of J.
F. Redmond by means of gross cleo
tion frauds, the board of county
commission, led by the experienced
Weinrich, past master in political
skulduggery, ably aided and abbetted
by James F. Redmond, in money
spending debauch and revelry, dis
sipated the taxpayers money in a
manner that is historic in north

Faithful Frank who is doing his best
as usual to look after his own inter-
ests and what does he care for the

However, as Culbertson and Wolf
Point are in favor of the election at
this time, there is no doubt but that
the election will be called in spite of
the antic of Weinrich.
The Board of County Commission

Mr.. Dolin stands indicted and con-
victed by the testimony from his own
mouth, by means of his own bid, of
the fraud and robbery perpetrated
against the taxpayers of this county
OF which he has been charged.
Joe Dolln admits every allegation
And the taxpayers can still believe
that this man is making money-for
ne knows the county printing game
For the past several weeks the
Pioneer Press has been loaded to the
brlm with malicious and knowingly
false articles alleging that there has
been an arrangement made by the
editor of the Producers News and
the board of county commissioners as
result of which the Producers News
was to get the county printing as q
p1ce OF silence concerning the bast
mlsdemeanors of Mr.. Matkin and
MI. T1mmons and as pay for acques-
cence IN a so-called fraudulent bond
issue which was tried in a very sen.
satlonal manner in the columns of
the Pioneer Press.
The Producers News editor denied
the whole charge, alleging that nc
such agreement had ever been made
claiming that he had never men
toned the subject of the county
printing to either of the members OF
the county board and denying that
there was any arrangements of any
klnd whatsoever between the Sheri-
dan County State Bank and the Pro
ducers News in reference to the bond
issue.
The Producers News a few weeks
since asserted that it was it's belief

ing can be done an still bring in a
handsome profit, for no one believes
for a moment that Joe Dolin figures
on losing a cent-he is too good a
business man for that.
The Producers News for the past
year has contended that the contract
given to Joseph Dolin. last May
without competitive bids, at a secret
meeting of the board of county COM
mlsloners, held in such a way as to
prevent the filing of competitive
bids, constituted a deliberate robbery
of the taxpayers of Sheridan county
by Dolin of thousands upon ,thous-
ands of dollars; it has contended that
the contract was meant to be a
swindle and that the idea in mind
was to defraud the taxpayers for the
benefit of Joe Dolin; it has pointed
out that this was done at time
when common decency demanded
that the county should get 100 cents
value for every dollar spent instead
of about 80 cents which Sheridan
county secured. And it seems that
Mr.. Dolin was not even satifed at
the fat graft that he had by con-
tract, but that he had to pad his bills
and accounts in order to make fat
graft doubly greasy.
Last Monday afternoon Joe Dolin
came before the board of county COM
missioners and filed a bid for the
printing contract for the ensuing yeal
which in itself constituted an open
confession before the board of coun.
ty commissioners of the blazen anC
barefaced robbery of the county with
which Mr.. Dolin has been charged by
the Producers News again and
again.

CONFESSES TO CHARGES OF CRAFT
IN LAST YEARS CONTRACT
Forced BY Pltless Exposure of the Farmers Paper Do
Goes Before the Board of County Commissioners and
Files Bldfor the County Printing Which Bid in Itself

prietor of the Plentywood Pioneer

Mr.. Dolin is the county printer by
reason of having submitted the low
est bid of five competitive bidders,
and by reason of having submitted
the cheapest and best bid, received
at the hands of the county commits
sioners, as he was entitled, the con-
tract for the ensuing year.

was let according to law to the low
est and best bidder. The board was
absolutely fair and took every pre-
caution to smoke out any jokers that
might be in any of the bids and af-
ter a careful investigation of the
bids, the contract was awarded to the
lowest bidder who happened to be
Mr. Dolin.
The papers bidding were: The Pro-
ducers News, The Scobey Sentinel,
The Plentywood Herald, The Plenty
wood Pioneer Press and the Antelope
Independent. The Producers News
submitted the next to the lowest bid.
