Respectfully,
Mr. Ward is a novice in the print-1
ing business. Yet he presumes too I
much for inserting his bill intorenub
lican political matters. He asserts
that TnE Chief has been attempting to
draw him into matters which is of no
concern to him, al! of which is a di
rect privirication as he well knows.
What we have said in regard to Mr.
Hoover's announcement in the Hel
met is absolutely true. We have not
denied Mr. Hoover the privilege to
announce in whatsoever paper he
p'eases, but we do state that it was
impolitic for him to announce through
a democratic medium to the exclusion
of republican papers, if he wished
the support of republicans. That's
all. The Chief fights for what it
thinks is right, and has no sympathy
for afciiau who perches himself upon
his office chair humped up like a toad
and is afraid to say his . u'i's his own.
As to his assertion that "the Helmet
is a clean high-minded paper", we
arc of the opinion that the old
proverb that '-self praise is half scan
dal" can be fittingly applied to his
assertion. If Mr. Hoover can stand
the support of the Helmet we certain
ly have no objection . but we shall
still have our opinion on the subject

Kihtor Chief: In these curious
cavs one needs to be clear, lucid, de
finite, doting the i's. crossing the t s,
and minding his p's
head lines, tail line?.
iate lines, too. should be ucd to
iruide the irayward citizen. Some,
in our local ig. "see men. as trees,
walking, others "as through a glass
darkly." and others still, wear gog
des of every possible shade of color
and decree of transparency. hy, ;
at this rate we hall soon know, neith
er our political and social parent, nor
children, nor brethren. Mr. Editor,
vju so attached my communication of
yesterday, on -submission," to your
anim-1 with a McKeeby head and the
body of the '-Big 3" that some of
your readers, though -al-bright"
didn't know where the '-submission"
tail began, and thought I was a sort
o' step-father of the whole outfit.
True s ou was quite explicit in the
remark, "read what Mr. Butler says,
which we hereto annex," but in these
troublous times, when, not all, are
"al-bricht" you must be even more
i;explicitor."'
P. 5. You say "Mi. Butler has a
keen memory, etc." Please let me
tell my own story about "clean gov
ernment." both the late one and the
present one, when I get ready. It's
too hot now. M. C Butler.

Its passenger trains were built ex

that they are as perfect and complete
in every detail as the best taste and
most thorough experience can suggest,
and no convenience for the comfort
and service of the traveling public has
been overloosed. In addition to its
regular passenger equipment, there is
in service a line of superb reclining
chair cars; no pains or expense baring
been spared to make these cars the
