Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1922-03-02

The Postage Stamp last week init
mated that the Record was behind the
circulation of petitions protesting
against the rehiring the county agent
and the county engineer. While
"them's our sentiments" as the Post
age Stamp would say, we are forced
to deny any credit for the circulation
of these petitions. We. have our hands
full giving the people the information
relative to county affairs each week !.
and it's up TO others to fight with the
county dads, if they. want to. If we
really wanted to get results from that
board, we would Ego before them and
ask that Theses men. be retained. Then,
maybe, they'd be in favor Of dropping
them: $50

Whenever newspaper or individ.
ual takes any definite stand that in
any way criticises public officials, OF
has to do with the manner in which
public affairs are conducted, the par.
ties who do not like it always have
one set comeback. Somebody is try.
ing boss rule. The Postage Stamp
is no exception. Last week it charg.
es the Record with attempting to en-
force boss rule. Such a charge is
without foundation in fact. The truth
is that the Record has in no way
tried to dictate to the county commits.
sioners. At no time have we asked
the present county board for any ia.
vor of any nature whatsoever. There
is no attempt at boss rule in it at all
Rather, there is an effort being made
on our part to show evidences Of
"ring rule" Until the league sheet
and the others who are opposing the
Records position can show one single
instance in which the Record has ask.
ed any one thing for itself and beer
refused, it looks as though their
charge of boss rule will fall flat.
There is one job we. are trying tc
boss, and that is the job of running
a country newspaper in the interests
of the people who pay for it. If that
policy steps on the toes of few
officials or others, or displeases the
Free Press, they will have to make
the best of it.
There is very considerable respon-
sibility attached to any effort to
bring before the public the inne,
workings Of the affairs in which they
are interested. Every person or in
dividual criticised begins looking TO,
a way to get even. Threats of libel
suits are hurled our way, and con.
coctions of personal abuse are dished
lout. Personal enmities develop on
the part of those who may have been
friends and the common retort from
them is, "Wait until the next election
'and we'll show that Record guy"
We are running a newspaper here
for the benefit of the public, and as
long. as: the greater share of that
ipublic appreciates our efforts, we
stand perfectly ready and willing to
take our chances. :.

This weeks issue Of the Psstagl
Scamp ought to be due to carry a big
1oad of personal abuse of the editor
Of the Record. They seem to shoot
their big wads every week, and they
were pretty mild in the last issue.
Editing that sheet is "a sort Of CO.
operative venture-,-a sort of an ONE

those who want to see new school
built will do well to get out and vote
on election day. There is no way of
knowing how much opposition will
develop. However, it is a fact that
opposition is being expressed by one
of the gentlemen who took most &C.
tive part in the school election last
fall in opposition to the present board.
At that time, we were given to un-
derstand that he and his friends were
putting up fight because they fig
ured we would not get new school
if their ticket failed of election. Now,
the same gentleman is expressing OPP
position to the proposed bond issue.
He claims that $4,000 is insufficient
to build a school. Answer: It is the
limit that che district can raise, and
it will build considerable of struc-
ture at that, with proper care in maxi
ing expenditures. The same gentle
man has also said: "Well, I want to
know what the money is going to be
used for before they get my vote. +"
Answer: helmoney is to be used to
build new school, and for no other
purpose. There will probably be
plenty of competition, too, when the
contract is let.
The gentleman to whom this ar
ticle refers is our, esteemed fellow
townsman, Commissioner DuHeaume.
The people of this district who are
familiar with local conditions should
be able to determine whether or not
Mr.. DuHeaume's position presages a
fight against the bond issue.
