Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 45, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 19 February 1909 — A Musty Petnut. [ARTICLE]

A Musty Petnut.

The double-jointed peanut editor of the “peanut stand” had better buy a little carbolized mouth wash and cleanse bis mouth, or tbe city health officer should require him to put a sewer in that organ to drain the filth Into channels into which It belongs, and not allow him to spont It over a public that tries to keep Itself clean and wants logical argument, rather than foul language which always comes from a tough boy when he Is caught In tbe wrong It requires brains to argue la a logical manner; but It la characteristic of the ignorant to resort to vindictive language. However, in a spirit of charity, we would rather not think this editor’s vulgar language was due to ignorance or to acrimony, but are inclined to believe be had taken an overdose of the “medicine” Which was oossigned to him a few days ago by express with Instructions to be delivered “at the house.”
