AID nos. with regard to the mean and
very foolish story tina. Newton Booth
wrote jones speech. n the first place,
no Iiin with an eye and Car for literary
style, and at all familiar with Booths
,ibured and Inmas cuiine manneris,ns
woall ever think of fastening the au-

anybody bat Jones dii write It, j: was
somebody Ike Jones,-hearty, candid.
b-awny and careless Of the petty nicetics
of competition. 1t is t;crid, deelama-
tory. neaty and somewhat crude from
beginning to end, and is just like Jones
in style and ideas. The reasons why
Jones Iotractors charged that speech to
Booth are, first, they knew that Booth
and Jones were intimate friends, and.
second, they knew Jones 50 little as to
think iiEl incapable of writing such
an address. We tell them that Jones
has ten political Ideas to Booths
one: and tina. while We believe, sincerely
lani from good evidence, as we will
show, that Jones speech was OF MS own
it was not by any means such a
speech as Booth, with his fnicai IDEAS

rriter OF this article saw hiIa st il, and
rendered at the comparative fauitless-
less of his diction and the easy flow Of
is rhetoric. But anybody who will sit
own and tall, with Mr.. Jones, (uho is
ne Of the best takers we know Of, J need
eel no surprise over this famous speech:
for he talks ever SO much better than
o writes. or than his speech reads. The
peech WAS first printed in the ArrEAL
flee, and is, every line aE.l word Of it,

Is to Jones not being in Washington
