Silt (Political Advertisement) Of course, as every one knows, if there was anything wrong with my administration as county commissioner the state examiners would have found it out long ago. I have been out of office four years, and when I left office the state examiner checked everything up and put his o. k. on everything. i "To show the animus back of Levand’s propaganda, I only wish to detail one conversation with him, and the people can draw their own conclusions: A few days after I filed for the office of County Commissioner one of my friends came to me and said that Mr. Levand of The Herald, wanted to see me. I dropped into The Herald office on business late one night. Mr. Levand and I engaged in conversation on general topics until the fact that I was a candidate for office came up. Mr. Levand said that he had not decided whether he would oppose or support me until he found out where I stood on certain questions. The question of county printing came up, and I very frankly told Mr. Levand that I would not promise him anything. I told him that that there would be two other members of the Board, and that I might be a minority member if elected. I told him that I did not think that either paper should have ALL the printing, and that I thought the arrangement now of award- ing it for six months to each paper was working satisfactorily, and it would be my judgment, if the other members of the Board concurred, to continue such an arrangement. “Well, you know the legal printing ain’t all there is to give out,” said Mr. Levand. I told him that he would probably get his share of the job printing from the other county officers no matter who was elected. « “You don’t seem to grab what I am talking about,” said Levand... “There are other things beside the printing. There’s some real money in sight. You know Casper is the most over-rated town in the country and you can’t make anything running a newspaper off of advertising and there’s nothing in job printing. I don’t care so much what you do about the printing if I am let in on the other stuff. I told Mr. Levand that I didn’t know what “other stuff” he was talking about. “Well, if you don’t know you ain’t got no business bein: reply. At this point in our conversation Mr. Byron Huie and Mr. Joseph C. O’Mahoney came in and interrupted us. “Come in again and we will finish that,” said Levand as I went up the stairs. He phoned me once or twice to come over, but I did not care to talk to him further. J. B.
