The producers news. [volume] (Plentywood, Mont.) 1918-1937, 1924-07-18
STATE EXAMINERS FAKIRY

What if any, credence may be given the Exam
neS reports just filed with the County Commissioners dealing
with the Producers News claims be easily determined by
few analysis
This report dealing with The Producers News claims
against Sheridan county probably the example official
olackmall ever recorded public document
In this pupOrted report the examiner decides that he will
not examine the claims of heaoce Storkan but did on second
ough lay that small matter to the regular examination
he puts it. The claims insignificant he indicates that
they are not entitled to official recognition.
According to his very learned unbiased" document
e PRODUCERS News received 5000 than should
about eight months county printing this amount S21 90
alleged to be excessive charge delinquent tax cards
which of the learned pigeon Dxon camp knows
noung about With his Interpretation the of
the contract which The Producers News criticized
was entered INTO between the county commissioners
m he is able to inject overcharge on one item of 2 co. but
ne ala not take the pains to investigate the jour
nal which would show that commissioners made special
agreement with the Producers to the tax cards and
agreed to the price shown claim after LOOKING over the
work TO be done and agreeing that work could
not De done for $500 No sir the unbiased rah
U lax IN MS Investigations when it involved the Producers
ana more than gladly overlooked the commissioners journal and
reported IN his political document the gigantic bareaced burglar
zng hlevey OF the Of 5000 eight months of
county printed which represented real work received
Dr. Storkan and Sells received more than 81 800 in two
IN 1872 Tor doing nothing except posing skilled psters
ana avarsen experts The not recognize that
amount because they only in items of hundred dollars
he could however, the Producers News claims which Pom
bottle Jack brought before him interpreted the contract to
MS own liking 1t showed he that 5000 of that amount
was graft
VI course the examiner will himself agree that sol 90 of
mat amount an the part of the examiner as he failed
70 look up the special with the of county COM
ssoners Deductng the $2 90 from 20 will leave only
S482O which he is able Producers News of over
charging In order to the $780, he interpreted the
contract to himself which obviously favorable to The
Producers News.
During the time the Producers News performed the coun
y printing there overcharge The vague
and Joker contract interpreted according to most logical pro-
Visions No prove there overcharge To ILLUSTRATED
the confusion in the ranks of the the Producers News
IS well to remember that three prior to the time the
pubic examiner made the socaed investigation of the Producers
News Claims Pster Stokan imported socaed printer from
Scobey IN the of Buey Bowler check UP the Producers
News printing and at that time this sestyed epe1 published
big headlines pupog to that was an overcharge of
something like 3200 Then after the had done the print
ing Tor three additional months the soaed EXPERT from the
public examiners office makes investigation of all claims to the
latest date and he finds Ovecharge only of
Which IS glazing his part leaving only S482O to
be disputed with the absurd Interpretation of the con-
tract
When the taxpayers note this sum- it is well to remember
the S8OOOO medcs bill and $4,000 embossed letter heads
which Stoan ordered from Don when he first became
health officer and also bark back to the first three years that Joe
Oon had the county printing when Sheridan county over
SOOOOO and when in the of 1918 overcharge of
was made on one lone cawhch was saved to the tax
payers by court action induced by the Producers News
We wonder, how DixOns gang the Sheridan County
thieves convince the taxpayers of this county that thew are
oelng robbed by anyone but the gangsters themselves
