Dirty charges against any candidate,
which are held back until the eve of
election, bear the brand of falsehood on

elected. This is just half the Cresset
says he will spend. Both stories are
false. But if either means to insinuate
that Lands will give one cent toward
corruption, it is not only false, but
! malicious.
