From the Illinois lntelligencer.
TO THE PEOPLE OFILLI.VOIS

In the newspaper printed al Shawnee
town, and edited by J. Hall, the partner
OF Mr.. MLean, (my competitor) in the
practice of the law, / find very harsh
and uncandid mvestg alton OF my conduct
is commenced. While the writer talks
loudly about " decency o. demeanor, -
/" behaving like ali honest man" &c. he
forgets their obligation upon himself,
and calls me shailow-pated fool
" designing knave"-weak noddled," &c.
terms which at once betray the iN-bred
fetiogo at least, if not fellow Of the sort
he is attempting to describe.
After preaching up modesty and de-
cency to others, and indu!ging himself
in the grossest vulgarity, the writer, who
calls himself i" Brutus," proceeds to say,
voted against reducing the price OF the
public land from 50 TO 81 25 per acre.
This subject was canvassed at my last
eleciion---the vote was given before that
time, and this charge was then proven TO
be .false-in the. shape in which this de-
cent writer puts it. The journals were
tjCH iClSiiCG why S"' h'N''N"" 49,
mitted on the subject in Congress were
printed, and it was fully understood, and
then met the appreciation of the people,
as was shown by the election. But II is
again brought up at the eve of this cleo
ton, with the cant of hypocrise and
designing knaye."
But Brutus is either ignorant of facts,
or wllfully perverts them. In speaking
of my vote on the bill for the relief OF
the purchasers of the public land, which
passed in 1921, he couples with it my
vote on the bill to reduce the price Of
public land, which passed IN 1890
They were different laws, and passed al
different sessions of Congress. And up
on both Of these bills voted as both o.
our Senators voted-Yes, Judge Tho
mas, who is so highly praised by Brutus
also voted as l did upon both these bills
