BANTER first shook the foundation stone
of the Nashville papers, when he exposed
their frauds on the State treasury in the
public printing. They have of course pur-
sued him with malice and vituperation
ever since. The country weel1lies are now
knocking another stone from under them
by some ugly facts plainly told. Ever
since Baxter's public printing swindle
exposures took from them the nice job of
two prices for printing, they have been
hard pressed for money. They have lately
been making huge efforts to make raise.
They flood Middle Tennessee with their
weekiies sent on credit to thousands, and
then boast of their circulation to get adj
vertisements. Then they advanced the
price of their paper from ten to twelve
dollars, and cut off sending their daily for
country weeklies. The latter class of pa
pers have been letting fly some singing
articles in return.

cit may not be amiss to all lovers
of freedom. and particularly to my

action of Horace Greeley in 1913.

sought to free their country. At a
meeting in New York Mr.. Greeley
came forward with a contribution of
81 900, and also gave the Tribune
free to every Irish Club from Name

listed in the cause of freedom. Hor-
ace Greeley can surely count upon
500. 900 Irish-American voters of the
