An exchange very senslblS remarks
that Mr.. NJ A. Hanna unnecessarily
dignIfes the foolish attack by Senator
Chandler as to the lavish use of money
in MeKinley's behalf by formally deny
Ing the senator's charges That, our
contemporary thinks, Is compensated
for. however, by the suitable emphasis
with which Mr., Hanna makes the de-
NAL.
Senator Chandler ought to know, and
IL he doesn't u great many other peo-
pie do. that any man has right TO
make legitimate expenditures of money
to help friend. Mr.. Hanna's efforts
for Mckinley. 1t is stated. is pure
labor of love. There IS no ofiiee that he
would have. He IS for Mckinley he
cause he likes him. and the money he
is expanding to help the Mckinley cam
paign is being legitlmately used for an
unselhsh purpose. SO far as Mr., Hanna
Is concerned.
