Editor Coos Hay Times: The real doutK of Road District No. 2 have boon bothered considerably of Into by a post who signs himself "Tax payer." The county court linn refused to listen to his wnlllug, mid pronounced him a harmless joke. He hns now taken refuge. In an nj sumed name. 1 do not pretend to say what lie gulns by crawling under the house to attack someone. Maybe tho ?(i..r.O 11 day for lying or perhaps it Is $l.fiu a day for accusing a poor widow woman who Is trying to inako a living by cook ing for a road crow, of going Joy riding when sho goes back and forth from one camp to another, lie also speaks of using hay for construction work on tlio road. Now ovory ono in District No. 2 knows that this would-bo taxpayer has iw or used anything but hay to build up his brain slnco lie dlseurdod tho bottle. When a man callH himself a taxpayer ho should pay hU taxes ami not brag about not paying thoiu. In ou'i place In his flowery lnn guagu ho states that the pay she got was I2.no a day, and also drew a pension of $10 a month which is absolutely untrue. If this wise meddling dispenser of llliio Jay would center his thoughts on hit own business he would probably go around with a smile Instead of a cramp. TARGET.
