The editor Of the Public Ledger doesn't
seem to know that his party has nomi-
nee for Congress in this district.

The editor of the Ledger is up to his
old tactics. He is never so happy as
when he is dealing in Misrepresentation.
Yesterday he made great-to-do over an
article on the money question which APP
peared in the BULLETIN few weeks ago,
and which he represented as the cutter
ances" OF this paper. The article in
question was clipped from an exchange,
and was so published, with this intro
duction Here's something we COM
mend to the consideration OF free silver
Democrats" 1t was not the BULLETIN S
utterances," but the utterances of some
other paper, which the BULLETIN simply
placed before free silver Democrats for
their consideration. That's all.
