Everything goes to show him painstaking and honest, and we for one would be the last to want to think of him otherwise.’’ Now what do you think of that. The Iron News is certainly very incon- sistent. It puts up a howl that Itas- ca county should have a new coun- ty auditor and yet says it would be unjust to accuse Auditor Spang of petent manner. It is useless for the Iron News, or any other paper, to state that anyone can hold down the job. The county auditor, like any other business man, must gain insight into the affairs of the office by experience. We do not believe in experiments. They are costly. Mat Spang has conducted the affairs of his office in an able manner and there is no one who can truly state that he has notat all times faith: jfully done his duty.
