By Mr.. Hook and his friends that had
inserted in the tax law, passed last winter,
a clause provicing for fee to the Treasurer
for collecting penalty, and that you had it
stricken out. Now, | rever even thought
of such thing. Will you do me the
kindness TO contradict the statement. /

a CONTRADICTION.

BY letter published in another column.
lir. Blaekmsn denies The story circulated
ill over the county that Mr.. Shepherd
tried to hsve al obnoxious clause in
serted in the tax law last winter, and Mr..
j acknan struck it out. The persons who
started the story must have known, if they
Lnsw anything about it, that there was no
truth in it. This plain statement by Mr..
Blackmsn, showing the whole thing to be a
lie, will make it react IN favor of Shep-
herd among men who are opposed to resort
ing TO falsehoOd and dishonesty in a polit,
ical contest.
