IT seems strange that the accounts Of
j. Eldridge Pierce were not examined
eighteen months ago when the EVENING
JOURNAL published an account OF that
real estate transaction. by which Cotton
was made eligible to sit in Council. The
exposure of a mortgage for 5000 on prop
erty already sufficiently mortgaged, should
have prompted the directors and the at
torneys to examine the accounts OF the
Loan Association of which Pierce was
the treasurer, but they seem to have
been afraid Of hurting the good mans
feelings. II a mans accounts and trans
actions are honest he is not afraid OF
exposure and examination An honest
