The sensational ntul' vocifcous Vlitty,of til Laidlaw Chronicle cvi Jcntly come into Ccntnil 'Oregon with a chip 011 his idioulder. As iu bne appealed to have any desire In . );uoek it off, he determined to makt soiuroue take notice of his bluster bnd consequently last week devoted Vwo columns to a nucrilc nnd hot pioAituVtl attempt to prove Unit tin Jojtrrccicd Clirotucle, under hi 'most brilliant management,' 'U tin ftnly real paper that Central Qrenn ever sa .v, and that The Ilulle'tln which the poor, benJuhted peoph have tcad and praised for the put Svc' years isn't- vorth a whoop; no ladies, it isn't even fit to put on your pantr shelve The Bulletin liat.tyccti wondering "Why nil this nervous c&clttmcti' j th prt pf the 'red-headed' Chronicle?" , Wc were not awan that wc had qffended.

Oh! tut, tut. my little man! The Bulletin, if so .ngaccd, would have an easy task, -nd then you should know that this ' apcr had a correspondent at Laid iv long before you .trapped into Central Oregon. Wc are thankful for one conces sion from the Chronicle, namely, ,hat The Bulletin "covers" Btnd ietler thari does our esteemed con temporary, It admits that evident tact and then labors valiantly 'to prove that The Bulletin does not cover".. Laidlaw as well as the v'hrouicle. Well, now, perhaps it Iocs cot. At least not qcxtk as . Finally the Chronicle gets down -0 figures; saying that figures never he. Perhaps they don't, but the Chronicle man can . make them do ome awful stunts. He compares The Uullctin and the Chronicle of -jtir issue of May t, and makes sev eral misstatements. Deliberate? iVell, perhaps not. For the good f his soul, we hope not. He cred ,ts the Chronicle with 1014 news lines to The Bulletin's 913, when tUi fact The Bulletin bad 9S0 or -inly 34 lines less than the Chron icle's own figures. Furthermore. :hcse figures for The Bulletin do jot take into consideration 105 ities of what the Chronicle call .'boiler plate" in this instance fhrce articles of interest and value ,0 dairymen and stockmen. Yes, ind we'll wager these three articles .ontained more of iutercst for the armrr than the four Chronicle cd torials which Bro. Scabury niod Stly. calls "live ones." Adding . ese 105 lines, gives The Bulletin toSj lines pf good live stifff com pared to 1014 in the Chronicle, lie Bulletin freely admits that our: ssut o May r was uot one of our C If the Chronicle is so anxious 41 compare Avhy did H not take our ssuc of April 34 when The Italic fin had 1322 lines iu addition to a irge table giving the complete SUictal count ot tue primary, eltc .ipn returns?-. Something like' 1500 liies to the Chronicle's 104. Or rrain, our issue of May 8 wheu we ;ud 1194 lines to the.. Chronicle's 1160. Perhaps figures don t lie. jut they sometimes can be made to tutter badly, aud the Chronicle lau must be uti adept figure ma nipulator. Agaia. He credits The Bulletin' ith cigflt "local news articles." A .-tie count gives uiue. He gives us I BULLETIN six "miscctlaticprts. ttews item:" These were corrcypotuience irom stx different loctdltic's ntul contnincd just nn even, -5 Vepdrdte nnd ills tiuet items 'of ifetvs.l 1llut you bet yei life l)c throjilclc mnn didn't uicution Uh't.

' The Bulletin believes in advertising, nnd hence these ndiqfoiirs colled mention to the value of this paper ,s a NliWSparxr. , The Chronicle iuiiii condemns these as too much lf praise and yet his entire editor ial of nearly Awo columns was given to pr.iisin the Chronicle under his lirilliaut ..juannKcnicnt. "ConsiM- ciiey, than art a jewel. ll tue ChroiiV,'lq doubts our statement that The Bulletin is the best paper tn Crook, county," wc can show it quite a hunch ot tetters from appre ciative subscribers that wc have on lite ninking that and similar state ments. , Hut let's move on. we fnin would withhold our pen from ivhat s to follow aud would save our irother from the inevitable humil iation, but since he has thrown ,the t'.iuntlct down, wc necdajpust press in. It becomes our duty o make 11 evv disclosures. Two .weeks ago the Chronicle had an item, which old of the finding of a flow of wat er at Powell Itattes in the "Hltncr" Xiswougcr well. (It should, have wen "Moses" Ntswongcr 1 The Chronicle got so excited as to call 11 trteslan water Now, what arc the tacts? A small amount of seepage had been found aud one night's iccumulatioii amounted to two bar rels. Oh! My, My! Isn't that n masrnificeut artesian well' But that's the sort of J'double-your-money's worth" news yoy get iu the Chronicle. It remained for The Bulletin to report the news correct ly, as it has been doing ever since drilling started on the well. Then again the Chronicle said the loss from the recent Bend fire .mounted to $5,000. Lordy! The C. O D Co states that the build intr is fully covered by $tsoo insur ance and consequently there is no lovs. A loss of $5,000 on a $t,3oo builutug 1 1 But that's the sort of news you get in the Chronicle. 1 he-Chronicle again says, "48 teams 'are being employed by the u. I, cc r, Co. in creating a new townsite at Powell Buttes, stating that this work was started as soon us that magnificent flow of artesian water was known to be there'. . At a matter of fact the D I. & P. Co hasn't got a single team ct work on a Powell Buttes townsite and hasn't the slightest thing to do with it True, there is a townsite platted there, but it has been laid out for several months. Those 28 team. (not 48) arc at work for the D I & P Coi excavating a canal, and have been working all winter. But, then vou know, tb.-.t s the kind ol news vou get iu the Chronicle. Some more of that "live news" ou get in the Chronicle is to the effect (hat the John Day and Colum bia rivers are risiug, and that a bachelor in Washington has plas tered bis house. Good local news, isn't it? Thus facts easily refute Chronicle figures. We do not know why the Chronicle singled out The Bulletin for its "hot as coke" tirade unless it is that the Chronicle recognizes 111 The Bulletin the competitor that wiH give it the hardtst rub. Thus?! its verbose attack on this paper is 31 tacit aumission 01 the truth of The Bulletins contention that it is the best paper in Crook county. until the fatal ulghloftlic fenstot IMaiio, ulieu.tjli Kpfinns tcikd tho wntU'ttritl Munrl'rd the gftttlnon In ilruuktu tevel.
