The hired yap of the Tiraes Democrat announces the presence of a new editor on the The Tribune. But it requires no flight of the imagination to see the coarse work of the same old bewhiskered Ana nias in the reeeut issues of that publication. It is difficult to comprehend why Times-Democrat should attempt to malign a contemporai'y whose pol itical integrity is above reproach, unless it is to attract attention to its own recent spurt of party zeal, which is no doubt largely traceable to the fact that one of its owners was a candidate for the best paying office in Bed Willow county. The Tribune is now prepared to state with official confidence that Colonel Peterson is undoubtedly the most puissant and potential individual who smote Colonel TV. H. Patterson the blow behind the right auricle, at which the spheres trembled. He was also in at the death of the bear. The colonel is beyond a reasonable peradventure responsible for many marvelous deeds which have filled the world with wonderment and asylums with patients. But hitherto he has been traveling incog. He may now be readily recognized—he is a holy show, a howling hoodoo from Ohio. Colonel Oh My Peterson, the political renegade and all-around jay of the Times-Democrat who is weekly wasting his broadsides of nonsensical slush on The Tribune, Messrs. Dolas, Lamborn and oth ers who would not make a door mat of him, is doubtless acquiring a bad habit which even the gold cure cant reach. The Caesarian operation is about the only specific for such gall, impudence and ego tism as the oreide colonel dishes up for his disgusted patrons every week. The colonel should be taken out into the back yard and renova ted, or given six months twice a year regularly, until cured of this wearisome spouting through his fez. Even a low sense of fairness,de cency and gratitude ought to close the mud guns of the Times-Demo crat against the publisher of this paper. It is a matter of record that The Tribune gave one of the owners of that paper a support of acknowledged value, during the late election, for the office of treas urer. This assistance was render ed, as to the rest of the republican ticket, without hope of reward. In Mr. Barnes’ case the advantage lay distinctly in another direction. In view of this, what excuse can that paper offer for its contempti ble and churlish course since elec tion? It stands now as a self convicted tngrate, seeking by un der-handed methods to undermine and falsely represent this paper— an unmerited insult that will be resented vigorously. Be as manly as you can. Colonel Peterson pretends that The Tribune is dissatisfied with the way the “Times-Democrat run the late campaign.” In the first instance we deny most em phatically the insulting assumption that the Times-Democrat “run” the campaign. Secondly, we do not make a habit of meddling with the affairs of our contemporaries, as the impudent and irresponsible hired Jolie of the Times-Democrat persists in doing. Hence our com plete non-concern as to the course of that paper in the last campaign. But we will state, in conclusion, that the mendacious, malignant and persistent assault on the inde pendent candidate for treasurer was unmanly, cowardly and un called for, and especially contemp tible and dirty under the circum stances. It is decidedly unbecom ing a gentleman whose lips have been glued to a public teat ever since his advent into Red Willow county, and who will shortly enter upon a two years further lease, to so persistently and scurrilously assault those who have been fact ors in his success.
