LAWRENCE, KANSAS, DECEMBER 18, 1885.
WEEK past the COURIER HEARD.
For a week past the Herald Tribune has been nauseating its readers with what "it heard about the COURIER."
WHAT THE COURIER "HEARD."
On the same basis we beg our readers to pardon us for putting in a print few things "we heard."
"We heard," That the business men said;
WHEREAS, The boycott of newspaper property is perfectly legitimate they be only necessary evils.
That they were tired of supporting two daily papers of the same politics, same idea on all local and national questions editorially: containing about the same persons and local nothings, and one of them must stop.
That they were willing to support one of them but two was too much of a tax on them and that they were,and would henceforward discriminate against one of them in advertising patronage.
That if this did not kill one of them off they would shut off on both of them until one of them did give up the ghost.
That the *little* one should die first.
That if it didn't a committee of businessmen would decide the matter.
That it had no business to live anyhow.
That The COURTER with its circulation of eight hundred in the city, for its Social Department read by everybody, would well fill its place.
That every business man on the street that they might be relieved will endorse anything the COURIER would do to bring about this desirable end.
That they have "no use" for the little fellow who is writing locals on H—T. "for experience," and that he had best stop mis-representing them or they will cremate him and use the ashes as a "sure death" on maple worms.
That the COURIE with its select social city circulation is the best advertising medium in the city.
That Mr. Chalfant the editor of the Herald Tribune has been away for the week past or the silly twaddle above referred to would never have found way in its columns. The young man who is working "for experience" is a member of the college fraternity Phi Gamma Delta, which is running the "Little Bogus Courrier" seeks to give his brethren an excuse for quitting their expensive journalistic luxury in this way. But that they see through the game.
It IS RUMORED>—That at last Sulliwan's heart has succumbed. Amen! Amen!...That Curry will hang up his hose...That Grover will hang up his boots...That the boys have all sent home orders for fattied calf
...That the sleighing is immense
...But that the two dollars per hour
is nifarious. ...That the K. S. U.
students had a game of "stink base"
on the ice last Friday. ...That Snider lost his overcoat and tickets, too
...That a certain law student has changed the name of steak to compressed vegetables. ...That the Phi Delts have a quartette. ...That Jap Davis has a bogus lip. ...That Hall made an apology to the Webster club
...That Jacobs wants to see him in private. ...That the girls would enjoy coasting more if Yearsley would fix a place for their feet on his sled
...That Fritz froze his fingers while sleighing Saturday. ...That two prominent Kappa Gamma girls have withdrawn. ...That Fred. Bowersock is "laying for" the Rumor man. ...That Prof. Carruth's classes are breathing hard today.
...That Prof. Bailey told one of his students: "If you should put a single drop of that acid on your tongue, it would kill a dog". ...That Campbell Watson is a chip of the old block. ...That The Hillside club had a battle with crackers. ...That Orochilian still wants money. ...That Higgins lost a black dollar in the Chemistry class.
Society in Oread Hall last Friday was somewhat limited in numbers, but the program though short, was good. Josie Cooke responded to the call of a declamation, and also provided music. The executive committee were instructed to perform their duty of looking over financial secretary's books. After a request an interesting debate was given on the question. Resolved, that the negro population of the United States should be colonized, by S. T. Gilmore and C. L. Smith on the affirmative, W. S. Jenks and G. W. Harrington on the negative. The judges decided in favor of the negative. Quite an interesting general discussion on the subject was then had. Adjourned
THE BOGUS COURIER AND J. D. McLAREN.
Truly the lots of the unrightrons in whatever walk of life they be found, are severe. Ne'er does man sin but he suffers therefor. Everybody will remember the part J. D. McLaren took last September in the attempt to break up the COURER. His soul relieving declaration (on ten minutes notice.)
"We are afraid of you, and I have for a month every day tied to you; we have dealt double with you; have perjured myself, all our boys have been a dishonourable hypocrite with you. We are ashamed of ourselves."
This followed by an affidavit that he had been by the Couchier company elected a business manager of the paper. For nearly three months he has devoted nearly all his time and expended necessarily a great deal of cash in attempting to sustain his nafarious undertaking. But few of the sins of the category but he has in the matter smirched his fingers with. Through age in school, made "Captain" of his fraternity he led his bretheren into actions which individually they could not have been forced into. A heavy weekly tax through his actions was imposed upon them until this week, from well substantiated reports they rebelled. Report spread Friday in K.S.U. halls that McLaren's connection with the Couchier was severed, through trouble in the fraternity itself and that the fraternity which was the only support the paper, were in open rebellion and ready to be on their own paparoon, a few of the leaders only advocating further publication. Saturday the little fellow who is writing locals and persons on the Herald Tribune "for experience," and who is a member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity through vested authority offered the "management and control" of the paper to one of the other fraternities of the University, if they would put a business manager on. Reports say the so favored (?) fraternity in its consideration Saturday night took action upon it as an insult. The idea of attempting to "Saddle a carcass off on us" was too much for the boys good nature. Thus pricked the boys held another meeting and evidently raised money enough to get out this week's issue putting another brother on for McLaren's work.
McLaren seen by a COURTER reporter said he was no longer manager of the paper, that II. A. Smith by the new arrangement had his place, but that until things were fixed up they were going to use his name.
PERSONAL
To this strait has this young man who knew naught of the virtues of truth or honor brought his friends and reaps his own reward.
For these young men excepting four or five the Courier has now no cause for feeling other than sympathy. They have placed themselves in a ridiculous and expensive position. Though they may and have cut the number of their papers per issue down to a minimum the setting up of the amount of type they are compelled to, makes their journalistic luxury very expensive.
