Whereas, It has pleased the supreme Ruler in His wisdom and puwer to re move from our midst onr friend and brother, Sir Knight St.Coni. A. E. Lew ellen ; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the members of Springwater Tent, No. 89, K. 0. T. M., express our sorrow at losing a true brother, a noble knight, an excellent neighbor, a good citizen and a loving father and husband, and that the char ter of onr tent be draped in mourning for a period of 60 days. C. L. Gray, W. T. Smith, J. H. ROADARMBL, Committee. It, Scan's Answer. Milwaukib, Or., Apr. 16, 1901. You have an article in the Oourier Herald of the 13tli inst., headed "An other of L. L. Porter's Dirty Jobs,"6tat ing that 1 have entered into agreement with him to give him the county print ing for two years, provided, that he, in return, Becurea for nie the nomination for joint representative. It is unnecessary to say anything more in answer to that charge, than that Stipp is a liar when he made that state ment to you. As it came from Ananias' headquarters, I know the people will take it for what it is worth. You, or any other Bane man, know that a contract made with the present board would not bind the members of the new board, as they are a majority and could rescind any contract the pres ent board ipight make. " Now, Mr. Editor, you know me too well to ever think that I would enter in to any kind of deal that would reflect in any way on my private character, for I nave never done anything in public business that I would not have done had it have been my own. The deal charged was never thought of or talked of to me by Porter, or any one else. You ask if Sec tt and Porter want to own the county? It would be better perhaps if they did have a little more to say when you send bills into the court that have to be cut down 300 per cent, and then allowed good profit. In regard to my being a candidate for joint representative, I do not deny it, and did not know it was any crime. I am still a republican and shall always worx lor its principles. R. Scott. The bill mentioned was not cut down 300 per cent but 200 pei cent. The bill was put in for bat 75 per cnt of the price paid by the county before, and according to contract 1 was entitled to it too, but to save the county a lawsuit I submitted to the ar bitrary cut by the board. The charge was not excessive for the quality of work furnished. Editor. Children's bats a specialty at Miss Goldsmith's. - Hurcadi I.tka Wildfire - When things are "the best" thev be. come "the best elliug."
