DANIELS CO. COMNRS,
GIVE DOLIN COUNTY
PRINTING

Last Tuesday the County Commis-
sloners Of Daniels county met and
let the contract for the county print
ing. 1t has been reported here fo1
some time that deal was on foot
to throw the county printing to Joe
Dolln and that was the reason he had
started the paper in Scobey, but that
was ridiculed on account of the fact
that the Scobey paper was not a legal
paper and therefore it was impossible
for that paper to handle the printing
even though the County Commission
ers waited to give it to that paper ev-
er so bad
Notwithstanding this the bid was
given to Joe Dolin, proprietor of the
Dalels County Leader through the
flip flop of Commrs. Dodds and La
Roche, whose reason for giving the
same to Joe Dolin are easily recog-
nizable.
Burley Bowler, editor of the farm
ers' paper who held the previous con-
tract, was down Wednesday morning
to get a temporary restraining order
from Judge Conner and the case will
come on for hearing next Monday at
Scobey.
The question in dispute is whether
the Daniels County Leader is legal
paper or not. The law specifically
states that the County Printing has
to be done by a legal paper in the
county with certain requirements for
length of time published. The White
tail Courier ceased publication some
two years ago and Dolin claims the
Daniels County Leader is a continua-
ton of that paper. Judge Conner will
sit on the case.
A great deal of interest has been
generated in Daniels county over the
controversy as over 200 farmers in
that county are directly interested in
the Scobey Sentinel who claim that
they should have had the bid on ac-
count Of having the best bid and also
being the only legal paper in the
county.

TRY AGAIN TO
HIDE ACTIONS
FROM PUBLIC VIEW

The County Commissioners met in
session the first of the week and after
passing many bills, made another eff
fort to suppress their actions from
the public. Their efforts to prevent
the public from knowing what they
are doing has reached the ridiculous
stage and goes to show how far
these men will go to pull the deals
they want to put through without the
public knowing about it. If any per-
son in Sheridan county had any idea
that the County Commissioners were
trying to work for the taxpayers in
terest, it must be shattered by this
confession of their own guilt.
At the meeting Immediately pre-
ceding the last meeting a resolution
was passed by the Board of Commis-
sioners that no minutes of the board
should be given to the papers until
after they were approved, which might
be most any length of time, if they
saw fit not to let the public know
of their actions on the Board. The
Producers News claimed that the
Minutes of the Board after being put
in the Journal are public records and
proceedd to copy the same and they
were printed in last weeks paper
This annoyed the County Commission
ers very much and they racked their
brains for another idea which would
prevent the people from knowing
what they are doing so they or
dered the clerk not to put the minutes
in the journal until after they had
been approved. And then they drew
2. long breath of relief confident in
the thought that they were secure
from public that is growing more
and more irate and disgusted with the
wasteful, extravagant and senseless
use of their money. But the County
Commissioners will not keep these
records from the public and the Pro-
ducers News will print them if it is
necessary to send reporter down to
the Commissioners rooms to take
down their actions when they are in
session.
This is but a sample of the old
gang, because Tyler is as much of the
old gang as Matkins is, and we have
an opportunity to improve the Board
100 per cent by electing Charles Lun-
deem, a straight upright farmer and
one who will fight such tactics as
this to the last ditch and viii not be
afraid to let the public know what he
is doing.

Mr.. Mike Pappenfus,
RAYMOND. Montana.

Dear Sir:
It is reported to this office that you
kept your boy, Norbert, home from
school about seven days after the ex-
aninations.
You are fully aware of the fact that
this is entirely illegal and you have
violated the law and subjected your
self to the consequences of the law
by so doing. The boy is not even Ia
wears of age. IL of legal age, he might
be excused. IF this Office should do
something so fragrant as this in VOL
ating the 'aw in not living up to the
reauirenl, ats, you would be one of
{he first who would criticize and it
IS incredulous to believe that man
Of your standing and honesty will de-
IiberateIy violate the law and cause
trouble and unnecessary work for
This office as we'll as other officers.
How do you expect your boy to re-
sDect the law and comply with the
law of our government If you are
teaching him illegally to remain out
of school, thus knowing that his par
ents are violating the law that he is
taught to respect. 1t is the duty of
this Office and it is your duty as a
citizen to help to enforce the laws
and in the first place to obey the
laws. You Justly deserve to have a
warrant sworn out for you and that
vou be taken before the court in this
matter. Do you expect that should
overlook the law and not have this
matter done and thus really become
am accomplice in breaking the law
that YOU are fully responsible for
doing? I feel it my duty to report

CHAUTAUOUA IN
FULL. SWING

Many people are attending the
Chautauqua these days, both in Plen-
tywood and surrounding territory.
The Chautauqua is putting on about
the same class of performance as in
former years, there being one out
standing feature, that of Private
Peat, who gave the people of this
section OF the country a lecture that
was worth going miles to hear and
one which will give a good many
people something to think about. Mr..
Peat is absolutely against war and
he gave his reasons which were very
good ones and he decried the idea of
teaching in the schools and elsewhere
what grand thing war is. His lee
ture was attentively listened to by the
large audience and this paper has only
heard words of praise for Mr.. Peat.
The Chautauqua will close Sunday.
