The Public Is To Win. u Hfcetffing “ihumler” in abouL the latest charge against the ‘wmg* w&mt ' •u When council fitafc took up the matter of making it a penalty for fanners and others to hitch to a telephone, tele- graph or electric light pole theHeraki gave an account of the meeting and how the differentmembers expressed them- aelves. . The account was as accurate m it was possible, to . j*r-sts*r4-?'r,** .Sffrtrs-WJ* ■ <ctS -v-frAnrW - ^j#&‘eOs-*‘*rfcsfe iffeww j>a^uxi£g v* jnu|/v*y The “gang1* organ told of the meeting in well dressed language to shield the “gang” members that wished the measure passed- The organ seldom ever, if wemust say.it> gives the actual account of the transactions, particularly is this so when some one of the members does something that mighthot be approved by thegeneral public- To substantinate this recall what the Herald said of the meeting when Mayor McFarland rebuked X, IX Andrew for the use of improper language and then try to imagineif you ever read a word of such a thing in the “official organ’s” aecootmt. This is only * i *5 , * - • . _ v \ V . i t 7 “v 1 J * one case of many that nught , be mentioned. How then the “gang” organ found out that after we had %* F 1 $ r*\ ifr i,;. called thepubhc’s attention, to the,brdi»anceproposed by the ?1prince of “gangsters’*, X H, Andrew, and that .the public Was against the, measure to such an extent-that people would not,stand for it, a backdown is made units friends and evcry effort is being put forth to.show that sueha thing is not wanted. This was once that the Morgan" came .over to the people,' We are forced to' recall just . one other time when the “organ* supported a public movement jit opposi- . tioh' to the “gahg” and that was the local bptiori< fight- It is also a fact that the people’s 'committee t o , carry on this work had to purchase its space in ■>'the “official organ^nn suppo^ of the honie against the.saloon-' The “organ” to distort the facts tod try to protect the “gang” -wishes its readers to believe that all this discussion ‘on the part of the Herald is because we have no hitching rack in front of this office. Has anyone y e t read*a line in This paper that wouTd jfndicate that the .Herald wanted a rack? The first ’of the >ack controversy | was when T. Andrew, eut down a portion ofthe .rack Jn front of the Kerr,&Hastings Bros- wareroohi- Later council after much discussion ordered the rack f aken dpwn. Then came the cutting of the electric light pole m front of “Boss’, An­ drews property ip the middle of the night, the. erection of another, the suit in court over the, poIe, the double: He circulated by “Judas"Wright, that the case has been com­ promised in favor of the “Boss”, the promise to correct the fttAtfiltlftlvL firiri i.tlA iftVJlrtflllVfl h v f.Vio TTrmoW. rtf' m lio f Vi. tell All of this was the result of .the .HeraldVatand oh the cutting of the hitching rack oh South Mmn street, and yet the Andrew organ would have the public believe, that it? was all because the Herald had no rack, though if council, wants to put up one we will act with more manners about legring it there than have AndrewBros, about some others. A rack is a necessity and the town must furnish iC The Telephone Company and Electric Light Company do not wafcfc to maintain hitching places for people when it is council's placeto do so. Tim companies however realise the situation^ They know that the farmcrs.must have some place to hitch and under the circumstances would not like to have such an ordinance passed I t is realy amusing to know* that the “gang” organ atTthe Seventh hour, after the Herald had so aroused public sent* ment, wants a hitching place for the fanner. Why didn’t the organ so speak at the' time the Herald did? Public sentiment demanded that council let the Andrew ordinance alone, ___ Aa was told in the first, account of the meeting in. the discussion of the measure,Mr, Weimer was the only mem- , ber that dared to speak out- Mr, Weimer had no hesitancy in opposing what he knew to be wrong, Mr. Weimer in other words had no ring in his nose and he spoke as lie pleased. Did “Judas” even mention Mr, Weimer’s name as bring opposed to the measure? h The “organ” in a very neat manner tried in the last issue to exonerate®-A. Shro&des, in that Mr. Shroades wants racks built by the council. Did the “organ” sayTn the first account that Mr. Shroades,wanted racks? Can anyone Smfsueh a statement? If the “organ”, and Mr. Shroades wanted racks, why have they waited until the present time to say so? But what about the other members of council that were in favor of passing the ordinance? Why did “Judas” not exonerate them? Would they not pay the price aa did the local option committee? Then has the Herald “grossly misrepresented Council”? As proof we quote the following from the official “organ” of August 20:*"It seemed to be the opinion of council that all poles should be painted, THAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE PROHIBITED FROM.HITt'IUNC} THEIR 'IIOKSES TO THEM" f • • - 1 The Herald does not care to claim the honor of winning th e fig& ‘ Our interest was that of the public and we did not fear to speak front the start- The public has about won the fight, the only cause for. congratulation on the part of the Herald is that the PUBLIO IS TO W itt. 19**War Mtsuw Try v* *r»prt»*N tb* ffaniitiw «f F*rt*www Ah la#uw nw jBjwwfifioiit tati Stave 3 b *» j ways by which they #»*> .dt-ivor to propitiate the gosMewi of fortune, or, m they call it, iwdce medirixp, tofiringthemgooda luck t>r U>break» spell of bad luck.
