FROM THE GLOBE OF JUNE 10, 1910.
THE GLOBES CONVICTION

The Globe CT Saturday had two columns OF
of which il stands, and must forever stand, con-
| victed.
We will not fill our columns with frivolous
private matters, or replies to idle personalities
for such, according 10 our apprehension, is not
the duty Of the political journalist. Therefore
article in full.
The Globe does mol, cannot, deny having per-
pe'rated the forgery charged upon ii. But il
| says that
"The Madsonian Office which prints for the Sc
nate, and the Madisonan Office which prints the Ma
dlsonian newspaper, are under the same roof"
And if this were true, would it remove the
brand of forging the words foreman OF the
Madsonian" to the note Of Mr.. Towers printed
in the Globe of Thursday? But il is not true.
There is no Madsonian Office which prints
for the Senate"-nor is the office where the Sc
nate printing is done, under the 60 same roof or
in the same building where our paper is printed
II is several squares distant.
The following passage from the Globes pre-
varicating article is certainly very amusing:
"Yet, John b. Jones and John T. Toners, who arc
printing in the back end, back side, of little per-
fume shop-a good idea, we think, TO put perfume
shop in front of such in the summer-get to-
gether in their coon box, get up their backs, and
write TO each other very formal letters John Is
Jones issues his from the .Madisonian Office" and
John r. To,oers writes This from Washington. y
This would lead persons at distance TO the conclu-
sion, that these dplom aiique gentlemen were some
distance apart when IT is probable, they were ooth
in little ten-bytwelve room, and writing at little
three feet-square pine table"
We might charge back the sally of the Globe,
that we are at the "backside of perfume shop"
by saying that The Globe mans house IS at the
front side Of a p-y. But " comparisons are
odorous."
Occupying the large three story building a,
the corner of 18th street and the Avenue, and
the whole nj the back building running up 18th
street lin which alone seventy hands can work,
with view TO economy, we rented room
on the Avenue TO very entcrprslng
and thrifty tradesman, the rVom above II
to an industrious book binder, and the one
above that as a lodge for the Nasons.-
| We did this, it is true, TO diminish our own
rents and the sneers Of the rich forgers Of the
Globe do not mortify US. We are still young,
and may be rich ourselves some day. We can
only pray that, if such calamity should befs
Us, we may never have the maIignity TO mock
at more fortunate men.
! SO far from Mr.. Towers being in the same
room with US, his Office is about as distant from
ours as ours is from the Globe Office. And this
the Globe knew very well. We merely allud,
to these things to show what labyrinth Of false
hood 'd folly the man plunges into, after hi.
cupidiry induces him TO make the first step in
crime.
The Globe says we borrowed type f ON it tC
print The Post Office advertisement. Our fore
man mot Mr.. Towcrs) did We had an abun
dance Of our own--but used the Globes old
type, which answered very well, and which hat
been standing ever since il was used on III,
same advertisement under Mr.. Van Buren,,
administration. Perhaps the Globe can remem
Der that its loan Of type but reciprocated a favo
previously bestowed by us. We might refresl
its memory But this is nonsense The forge
ny is the thng.
We reiterate our charge against the Globe
and stand prepared to prove it before any tribu
nal on earth. And yet it might have passed i
this had been the first time The Globe had en-
d avored to make il appear that we were enjoy
ing the profits Of the Senate printing. Its oS
jcct has constantly been, by reiieraiing its many
falsebocds to excite the sympathy and enlist the
support Of the next Congress in its own behalf
But it cannot be elected printer, unless Cougre ,
is willing to sanction all its briberies, forgeries
and SANDERS.
