have they been sunk beneath the torrents Of
abuse that they are pouring out upon the
republican leaders So far their campaign
has been one Of slsnder alone. Can't they
find any better ground TO 6ghi on than
charges that have no bsttsr foundation n than
the inaginstions Of a fsnstlcal brain. Is it
possible that out Of 30 many brilliant minds
not topic worth considering can be evolv-

prompt and 'ficient conduct in prevent
ing an sssen'lage Of Anarchist Jews in

IT is fact, all the same. that the Phil

funds. William Uhler Hensel did not
know this when he tried to make point
against Delamster by saying that his
Mesdville Bank held State money. Mr..
Hensei now knows more than he did,
and he wishes that he had put his hand
over his mouth.
