The frantic appeals of the Cody
Cow Boy and its ridiculous expla
nations of why and wherefore the
county failed to divide itself at the
last election , is amusing. As a
basis of its argument and logic ,
in a recent issue it claimed that
Valentine was responsible for the
county remaining as it is. The'
Cow Boy obviously forgets that
the Valen ine papers took no
part in the conflict , that no word
was written in their editorial col
umns regarding county division
either for or against , and that the
only word given to the people
through the Valentine papers
were two communications sent in
by a resident of the proposed Lake
county and published over his own
signature. This paper in common
with the others took the position
that it was the people ? who must
decide , that the residents of the
county would know their own af
fairs much better than the editor
of a newspaper and would accord
ingly vote for their own interests
no matter what mud was slung or
what was said. Likewise the Cow
Boy forgot that his neighbors , the
people living in all of the precincts
in and around the two storm cen
ters of agitation took this same
view of the situation and almost.
to a man voted for their own in
terests and their ballots were cast
against count.v division. The Cow
Boy had everything its own way
this fall and unchallenged went
' about its great and noble work of
! ! moulding public opinion in order
i that it might get all the count.v
' printing in and for "Lake coun-
ty. "
We believe that in such matters
it is the people and the tax payers
who must mould public opinion
according to ilie.ir own welfare
and not a nrvvsj.aper which would
hugely profit bj the location of a
county seat ivuluu its jurisdiction.
We will maintain the attitude we
took this fall knowing that the people
ple and the tux payers of this
county will let well enough alone
and that they do not heed a
country newspaper to attend
to all their business. If we had
cast our first vote in Cherry coun
ty last fall as did Editor Hitchcock
of the Cody Cow Boy we would
feel so unaquainted with the wel
fare , the conditions , and the da-
sires of the p ' < pli * of i he
that ' * ( . - \ < ffl ; t tl.rii.i Mich

Cody Wants It.
Why not establish this poor
farm some where in the westerner
or central part of the count.v ?
Valentine now has nearly all the
county improvements and besides
if we fellows up this way have to
continue to pa.y the limit of taxe
to pay milnoe and build § 2,300
roads out of Valentine most of us
will have need of a poor house be
fore long. CoHy Cow Boy.
We honor the suggestion ,
though we do not , think that a ma
jority of the residents of the wes
tern part of the. county will have
need of an institution of this char
acter on account of excessive taxes
or road building out of Valentine.

Which all the little Seniors
Could not help but spy.
It was of black and gold ,
And thirteen in the top ;
And when the old class saw it ,
Well things began to pop.
They threatened to the Juniors.
That they would take it down ;
But all the noble Juniors said ,
k''Tis easier said than done. "
They threatened with the shot

Because their sights are twisted ;
And we'll be there double fisted.
