The Tribune's malignant and scurrilous
misrepresentation of DIR. Ames' acceptation
speech has made the doctor hundreds of
votes. People who live in glass houses should
not throw stones. Bewarei

doning the irregularities of the Theater

suited, most hagrantly, every foreigner in
the city by saying they were ignorant and
debased and that they sold themselves at SO
