The Recorp has been censured by some for dubbing the Miner ihe “Corbin rag,” not on account of any regard for Corbin, his claims or the Miner, but because a portion of the public was skeptical about it being a subsidized sheet. The Miner under the present management was conceived in sin and born in iniquity. John R.

But Jerry rushed once too often. Dune had ro time to duck or side-step. There was ao alternative so the lust means had to be resorted to—the lett-hand short-stop. “With a “wallop” square on the n 1 organ that sounded all over the house, Jerry staggered to ner before time called, remarking that it was a bright and starry night.
