The Courier-Tribune ( Callaway )
Doc. 1 , Is still fighting county di
vision , very busy trying to contra
dict the "verdict" of the voters of
the county , suggesting mean things
that only tend to make selfish mo
tives a mere prominent feature In
the matter of establishing county
seats. Reference Is made to the
fact that the Chief Is the only bub
ble on the county think tank , and
that the Republican and LJoacon
are dead , so to speak , well we'll see
old sport , If the Republican is dead.
Wo don't make a practice of going
around with a chip on our shoulder

per \\lth statements that the read
ers will doubt. We dimply wish It
