itor of the Argus-Joauai, by Miss Alice

Potter made mean and cOwardly attack
on Miss Lane as teacher In his paper,
and, upon his refusing to retracl, she
drew rawhide and proceeded to make

served him right"
The above, heading and all, we clip
from the st. Louis Globe Democrat OF the

paper has made no attack on Miss Lane.
II most emphatically found fault with
the school directors for employing o wO-
man whose certificate as teacher had
been cancelled, and who, according 10
the county superintendent. was in ,Ompe-
tent to NIL the place she had. That was all
mere was OF anything that could
be construed into an attack

retract. What had been said related to
official action that could not be contra.

what the county superintendent lad
done. and the reasons he gave for doing

retraction, none was asked. Miss Lane

Insignificant by leading Republican
jo,,innls--wc mean those independent at

only discrcditcd but denounced rs I'M
manly and likely to cause a campaign of
personalities unworthy the American
people. And their uttcrances proved
true--ior those charges brought to light
the records ot the Fremont court, and
soon every Republican paper in The land
became buAy defending the character OF
Rutherford b. Hayes. While Iildrn
stands clear OF the Bliss imputations.
Hayes good name is ualer II cloud,

no Sinnott, no good man who can pro-
ducc sufficient law to rub the record out
or divert the stare of the dead man. The
energetic Bliss, the faithful office holder,
the tool, did not seem 10 be aware that he
was throwing Il boomerang that might
prove fatal TO those he wished 10 serve.
Tie was too good servant, too ardent,
entirely too Shiny.
The majority of office holders are, like
the Infamous Bliss, not only enemies to
the Democratic party, but Tor paltry
pittancc would st"op To the bascst. acts

tinue in favor with the head of Disgrace

few and far between.
