unduly disturb them by telling the
truth about their associates-the
same old gang that has so loEg
made St. Louis politics synon-
ymcus with all that is fraudulent
and indecent. But if we do dis
turb them, we can't help it, and
they must reconcile themselves to
the usual penalty of being judged
by the company they keep.
