ton TO Investigate the Pan Electric
matter alluded to Joseph Pulitzer,
OF the New York World, and his pa
per in these terms:
"There has never yet been made q
charge against any person occupying
an official position such as would
justify the trial of any man in this
country. But yet member uf this
House, refer to the gentleman from
New York Mr.. Pulitzer) himself
an editor of a paper, did not see fit in
his official capacity to attack these
gentlemen in an open, honest and
manly way which Representative
should have done, but undertook to
retreat behind the irresponsible col
ums of his newspaper for the pur-
pose of creating scandal, for what
motives am not here 10 state"
There is more truth than poetry
in this sideuipe. Pulitzer is crank
who cares vastly more to make a
reputation than for any mans char

ers, but thinking laboring men OF
this country.
From the terms of your contract,
it seems that the Economist was
burdened with debt OF $454.05,
and to save themselves they had to
borrow money, and that they had to
covenant and agree with you that il
you would loan them the amount
necessary to free themselves from
debt, they would not only secure you
and pay you we'll for the use Of yeur
money, but in addition try to control
public sentiment to the end that you
should be endorsed By the order OF
the Agricultural Wheel as the demo
cratic candidate for congress. In
other words, as money -,oaning cap
italist. you have taken advantage Of
the distress OF the poor Wheel organ,
not only TO put more money In your
pocket, but to force it TO try to infiu
ence Wheelers to put you in the pub
lie crib.
j pity your credulity If you ex-
pect Wheel support upon the ayari-
cious business OF the terms OF your
contract. Political party candidates
generally try to keep their ayari-
ciousness hid from public view until
they get iato office; but you, with
unblushing cffrontery parade yours
rs basis for your claim for W heel
ers' support. Wheelers throughout
this country regret very much the
necessity that prompted the proprie-
tors Of the Economist TO subscribe
70 such terms as that Infamous con
tract requires. You may rest as
surei, sir, that Wbeelers in this
