The New York Globe describes the author
Mckenzie as follows:
in 1911 he published violent paper in
Ibis city, in which, without rhyme or Ied
SON. lie denounced The Democratic Candidate
for The Presidency, and was Of great service
10 the Federal Party. Since he fled from "a
NADIA he has taken especial rains 10 injure tn'
party which most sympaihsed with the if'o,u

We shall conclude with the following e1'rac
from The New York Courier, Wing, cnaofseu y

After this heavy broadsde from Wing Ncuua
and Democratic papers, we should think 'hal 'h''
grand hIystery OF Inquily" would be blown IN

The only papers which have given currency 10 INT

Inc tomahawk and are now united il ccIdia

SPREAD before them. We have no fears Tor lh'
fate OF The New York Democracy from such lou
weapons. Ilthcy are oh!y 10 be overcome by suci
