Butterworth did not give a direct answer
but in the course of his reply said TO COX
"You have district so thoroughly rottef
that it votes the democratic ticket by in
stinct." :.
This angered Cox somewhat. He replied
that such remark came with bad grace
from gentleman who had seduced man
who. according to the gentleman was {
democratic prostitute.
In reply Butterworth made an allusioI
! which is not of a nature tit for publication
and which was characterized by COX al
the remark of blackguard
