We made our advent here With the view of building np a business and making an honest living. In the ac complishment of this we reoogniie the ne cessity of working for the up-building of the county and the advancement of her cause in every 'way possible, and how well we have acted our part daring the time we have been here our readers must Judge. The prosperity of McLean ooonty means the prosperity of the IIMPM, and to bring about the best results both the people and the LUDU must work together. "Truth and Justice" should be our watchword, and when conspiracies and treason against the good of the commonwealth spring up in our midst, the people should prove true to themselves* by stamping them down with a firm and iron heel, and forever put ting thear,'seal of condemnation upon the instigators. We have now fairly entered upon a political campaign in which you may expect political spoils-seekers and their henchmen will use every devise pos sible to carry their points. Falsehoods and deception are their main tools. Watch them. Don't allow their oily tongues to beguile you, nor stand in fear of their threats. The LXADBB will endeavor to you posted. Refer to its oolumns for the truth and for "pointers." Read the Truth* We copy from the MoLean County Mail of Saturday, October 4th, the following paragraph printed in that paper under the caption, "An Honest Convention:^ A convention assembled at the oourt house last Saturday afternoon and elected Chas. Huston chairman and Anton Peter son secretary. They then placed in nomi nation the following delegates: August Wahl, Herman Hanson, Anton Peterson and Laurenee Casaelman.

We have ,inclination to engage in a controversy with out neighbor, but we oannot refrain from characterising the above paragraph as an absolute falsehood, and pointing toit as an index to the base which the handful of driveling soreheads propose to adopt in conducting groundless and nefarious opposition to Mr. Satterlund. please read the paragraph carefallytasd remember it was copied from the Mail of October 4th. It says, "a convention as sembled at the oourt house ljlbt Saturday afternoon and elected Chas. Huston chair man."

Ask him if he was in Washburn at any time on that "last Saturday." They have started the first lie of the. campaign and it is nailed to the wall. Let the voters of this district keep their eyes open and watoh these desperate carion eaters with a vigilanoe equal to the emer gency. Men who will turn traitors to the best interests of the people, for the sake of spoils or office, would betray any trust reposed in them, and are unworthy the slightest confidence. Now, let us go further and explain the •jjipift si^tj^a»jd-giv» abrie* history#!, the primaries and conventions which cul minated in the nomination of Messrs. Sat terlund and Johnson: In McLean oounty the eall for the pri maries and legislative county and district conventions was In Ward oounty two candidates were up for the state senate, via: James Johnson and T. 8. Reishus. Their oounty conven tion was very nearly evenly divided, with the odds in favor of Mr. Johnson. But the Reishus faction, backed by the Bank of Mi not, bought up two of Johnson's delegate* who had two votes each—and offered $20 for a third one—and thus suooeeded in sc ouring three out of the four delegates from that oounty. When the MoLean oounty delegates ar rived at Minot they found things in a pret ty rotten shape, with the very worst ele ment in the city headed by P. A. Havre void, one of the most disreputable charac ters that ever infested a respectable com munity, aided and backed by H. F. Sal yards, cashier of the Bank of Minot, work ing like rats for Reishus. They also found the rag-tag and bob-tail element of Wash burn and McLean county there working on the same principle against Mr. Satter lund. When the convention met it was found that five out of the eight delegates were solid for Johnson and Satterlund, and that the other three were for Reishus, and the devil, or somebody else, to down Sat terlund. The convention was called to order by R. W. Davidson, chairman of the distriot oentral committee, and after an attempt on the part of Havrevold and a nondescript from Washburn known as Anton Peterson to bulldoze the temporary organisation, and being frustrated- by the sterling in tegrity and good judgment of Chairman Davidson, the three disgruntled delegates bolted the convention and joined hands with Larry Casselman, August H. Wahl, Herman Hanson and. Anton Peterson from MoLean county. This little gang of "what-do-you-call-'ems" sneaked into a eorner and had a little side stow of their own, going through the farce of nominat ing T. 8. Reishus for the Senate against Johnson and J. C. Staley for the house gainst Mr. Satterlund. The regular convention performed its work in a satisfactory and commendable manner as irill be seen by the prooeedings published in this paper. The above is a full expose of the true situation, and any statement, to the con trary is false and calculated to deeeive. Ward County Reporter: Every vote given in favor of C. E. Gregory, for states attorney wiU be a just rebuke to "Immor tal" P. A. Havrevold, for the impertinent reckless aiiil false manner in. which h» dared leftist himself upon the people as a candidate for tatee attorney. Butjpank "boodle" and "packed" oonvention^donH go withttie inteUigent 'voters of this glori v" J. C. Btaley may be a good prohibition ist, bnt eanhe explain something about an elm tree at E. Grand Forks*—end why he treated the boysf i~* *7 &K n* duly published in the Mc Lean County Mail and the Washburn LIADXX for two successive weeks. At the primaries the delegates to the oounty con vention were elected by ballo^ the voting being, conducted upon the principle of an election. In four of the largest precinots there was not a dissenting vote against the men voted for. It was well known through out the county that John Satterlund was a candidate for nomination for the legisla ture, and the delegates to the oounty con vention were elected with that understand ing. The oounty convention was held at Washburn in acoordanoe with the call on Monday, Sept. 29th, with a full representa tion from every precinct in the county— including our bolting friend, Chas. Huston, from the Turtle Lake precinct—and a resolution was adopted by that body allow ing Mr. Satterlund to name his own dele gates to the legislative district convention. Out of the nineteen delegates present only two dissented from the adoption of the resolution—they were Chas. Huston of Turtle Lake precinct, and James Bartron, sr, of Coal Harbor, who held John O. Ben son's proxy. The delegates selected by Mr. Satterlund were Rev. Geo. E. Brownell, Hans Holtan, Oeo. L. Robinson and John Allen. These four delegates, except Mr. Robinson, who gave his proxy to Prof. John 6. 'Benson, who is a staunch personal friend of Mr. Satterlund, attended the dis trict danvention at Minot. ,«* Volume L^fA Washburn, McLean County, North Dakota, Saturday, October 11, 1890. Number 16. The tax-payers of McLean county should turn out en masse and attend the primaries next Tuesday afternoon. Don't wait until the last minute. Be at the voting place early, and see that none but true men are sent as delegates. Remember, "eternal vigilanoe is the price of liberty.^:-- The tax-payers of MoLean county ari interested in the approaching political contest. McLean county is deeply in debt and property owners are over-burdened with enormous taxes. The bonded in-i debtedness of McLean is $19,000. The floating debt, whioh haatbeen created since May 21,1887, a fractional over three yetfef, according to .tbse auditor's statement ~?ub ltshbd Sept. 1st, 1890, is $12,101.62, making a total indebtedness of $81,101.52. Can any satisfactory explanation be given for this? The LEADER does not charge our county officials with incompetency nor dis honesty, bnt don't you think, farmers, that it will be well enough to have a change? Let every tax-payer turn out next Tues day afternoon and attend the primaries. Don't let the rag-tag and bob-tail element run your precincts. J. C. Staley, chairman of the republican county committee, is the man nominated for representative by the three bolters and a trumped-up contesting delegation from McLean county. A nice specimen of a good republican and temperanoe man. To Bro. Copeland, of the LEADEB, greet ing: Don't hesitate to poniard the politi cal jay-hawk skulkers of this oounty (with whose careers you are well acquainted) when they undertake to prostitute the in terests of this legislative distriot in order to attain their own nefarious, ends. We are going to see them get it, too—Mao.— Ward County Reporter. We will say to Bro. MoLeod. that the LSADXB will roast every political "jay hawk," not only in Ward oounty, but Mc Lean too, whom we find skulking in our neighborhood, and we'll roast them to a finish over a clean, but red-hot fire. Well cremate them, in a political sense, so effect ually that not even the stenoh from their foul carcasses will be left to offend the pub lic nostril. Go thou, Mac, and do like wise. 1 Mr. Peter Funk, one of the whitest boys in Ward oounty, was renominated by ac clamation for auditor at the republican oounty convention held at Minot on Mbn day Sept. 29. Among the many necessities that young counties in North Dakota are in want of is a good county auditor, or in other words, a capable mathematician, and Ward oounty can boast, without being ego tistioal, that she has in Mr. Funk a gentle man who possesses all the qualifications ne cessary for that office. WeH bet a horse that Pete will be elected. In the Ward oounty legislative conven tion held at Minot on Sept. 29, money was freely offered to buy .delegates in the in terest of T. 8. Reishus against James Johnson. Two men, holding two proxies each, were bought up, and Mr. L. A. Larsen, the delegate from the Lone Tree precinct, who is an old soldier and an old-time res ident of Ward oounty, was approaohed by the "boodle" gang and offered $20 if he would turn against Johnson and vote with the Reishus party. But Mr. Larsen was not on the "sell". The Bank of Minot seemed to be the cesspool from whioh the boodle flowed—that great banking institu tion owned by E. Ashley Mears who is fore closing on the farmers of this country with a $200 attorney's fee attachment. The Bank of Minot in the near future will clash against something that will bury it in the darkest oblivion. Owing to the fact that Loren S. Foot, who acted as chairman of the bolting dele gation, is in the field for register of deeds of Ward oounty, we feel impelled to depart from our usual course and meddle with those matters whioh more nearly concern our neighbors than they do us. .Mr. Foot betrayed the people of Ward county last fall, and he is now being used by a certain few as a cat's-paw to pull the chestnuts out of the fire for them. Mr. Foot has gone into the speculation business, and if elect ed will have no time to attend to the duties of the office. We have always regarded Mr. Foot, as a fair .man, but his action in the late legislative convention, together with the treacherous part he acted last fall, somewhat modifies our opinion, and leads us to believe that the people of Ward oounty will have no time to give him muoh attention. Warid oounty has already had a siege of Mr. Foot's ability as register of deeds, and an inspection of the register's books irill oonvinee the unprejudiced por tion of the people that they need a more oapable m&n in that position. Alvin Lacy, wife and two children, from Saline, Ohio, visited his brother, George Lacy of this city a few days the fore part of this week. They were accompanied by their brother Marion Lacy from Coal Har bor. The entire party including George Lacy and wife departed today for Coal Harbor to partioipatein a family reunion at the residenoe of their father.

By a letter published in this paper, sent to Clerk of Court Brownell. it will be seen ttiat judge Winchester will hold a term of court in Washburn on the 22d inst. Per sons wanting their second papers should come promptly forward. Larry Casselman, J. E. Britton, Anton Peterson, Herman Hanson, August H. Wahl and John J. Robinson were visitors at Minot from McLean county last Satur day.' A man named Btaley was also along with the boys. It is said that J. C. Staley's mission to Minot last week was mainly for the pur pose of conferring with L. S. Foote about purchasing "sheep" for MoLean county farmers. We don't believe the "sheep" racket will work this fall. But little attention has been given to the local department of the LEASES this week. We have been busily engaged in preparing a political cyclone for the anni hilation of sore-heads, kickers and dis gruntled spoils-seekers. Honest people will have no need of fear. Maj. J. 8. Murphy and Dr. Geo. B. Cock came down from Berthold last Monday evening. The major was going to Fargo to attend the trial of White Elk, who com mitted a murder on the reservation last spring, and Dr. Cook was enroute to his home at Canton, Ohio. Dr. F. R. Smyth has closed up his busi ness in this oounty, and last week departed tor Chicago, whibh city he will make his future home. During his five years' resi dence in McLean county Dr. Smyth made many friends, and although they will great ly miss him from their midst and regret his departure, they all with one accord wish him unbounded success. Amos Dresser, representing Marder, Luse Co., of the Chicago type foundry, visitwd Washburn Wednesday afternoon. He oame here in the interest of his firm to look after the MoLean County Mail print ing material, upon which the type foundry had a very heavry mortgage. We under stand he foreclosed on Mr. J. E. Britton's interest in the plant and sold the same to Larry Casselman. Thus, Larry becomes the full-fledged owner of a newspaper. While in Minot last week we met our old friend Billy Manning, one the shrewdest business men in that flourishing bprg. Billy' was formerly engaged in the "wet grocery" trade, and his reputation for keeping first-class goods is well sustained. Whenever you go to Minot inquire for Billy Manning, and some of tlie boys will introduce you. Billy is a prince among mmijuuw r*„ a *i, Brickbats. Pecatonica, **91-# I1L, on Thursday of last week, Oct. 2d. We understand that Mr. J. J. Robinson was over at Minot last week looking up beef cattle for his government contract. For the past three or four days the weather has been quite cloudy and inclined to rain, ancT culminated yesterday in a brisk snow storm. John White, the liveryman, of Bismarck, was at Washburn the fore part of this week with a party of geese-hunter^. They bagged considerable game. Peter Miller came down from Turtle Lake last Tuesday night, enroute to Mis soula, Mont., where his only son, J. W. Miller, is now lying very sick. »lc CASH oic Paid for County Warrants.
