The New Age continues to harp upon
the subject of Morton's candidacy for
postmaster. One would think to look at
its columns that this was the great ques-
ton in American politics. The editor
fights over the campaign of last year In a
slashing manner, mingles more falsehood
than truth in his assertions, as usual and
contends that Morton's affidavit stamping
himself with intamy was a highly proper
and laudable act. We presume the APP
pointing powers will not be governed by
the political ethics of Morton's partner
in the New Age, for if they do the public
will be given to understand that the vilest
partizan will be most certain of office I'M
der this administration. Even Higgins is
not cemetery desecrater. nor has he yet
certified on oath to his own baseness as
Morton has.
