The publisher of The HERALD IL cor-
tainly unaware Of any such contem-
plated purchase. Az regards THE
HERALD's hostility TO democratic
usage" II has only TO refer TO liz record
of over quarter of century to refutc
any inslnuatlon In regard TO itspolltical
faith or honesty. While true TO its party
and friends, II has never yet been sub
servient TO the behests OF any man or
clique, or 80 lost to self.respect and In
dependence rs TO fear TO crlticlse cor
ruptlon, dishonesty or error among
members Of It's own political faith, or
render just praise and credit to an oppo-
nent when merited. The HERALD Is
content TO rest It's reputation with the
people of Texas. No charge of bribery,
corruption or false dealing taints its
skirts In either national, state or mu-
nlcipal matters. Can the Gazette say
as much?
