Does paper have ulterior motives?
The Standard seems to take great pleasure in announcing on the front page that there were enough signatures to put the liquor issue on the ballot.
Before the Standard gets too congratulatory, many of us see through this veiled attempt at greed. The Standard clearly knows the anti-liquor forces will spend thousands of dollars in advertising with them. Does the paper’s pushing of this issue seem so genuine now?
What other issue recently has received such recognition by four front page notices in just a few weeks? And this only by a relatively small number of citizens? Now, we will see how honest the Standard is in printing the FACTS regarding the negative impact of liquor on the FRONT PAGE. We shall see.
