El Paso daily herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1881-1901, 1897-11-12

he put up considerable money to elect
a city treasurer last A pril year ago.
He and his friends put up the most
popular man they had in the party for
city trea urer, and then Mr.. Stewart
Jumped on behind him and tried to
ride into an aldermansbip and boss
shin. 1t is also we'll understood he put
up the money to elect county treas
urer last fall.
"In this collectorship contest he
started out against Mr.. Dillon as we'll
as Mr.. Campbell, and Mr.. Dillon so
und erstocd it before he let Mr.. Rey-
holds aud Mr.. Stewart have right to
have their private reasons for support
ing Mr.. Mothersill, but they have no
right to drag into and in lure the pri-
vate affairs of their antagonists. We
have it that Mr.. Stewart has written
letters to Mr.. Herrick in opposition to
Mr.. Campbell, and met with a re buff,
and that he was called to Washington
by Mr.. Reynolds as a local man who
could represent local interests, and
make statements as such in the inter-
ests of Mr.. Mothersill.
'Rumor has it be went from there to
Cleveland to see Mr.. Herrick and az ain
failed to turn him against Mr.. Camp
pell, who had stood Oy him and the
cause of MIR. Mckinley in Texas while
Mr.. Stewart and his cOnsOrt were en-
jOyipg an Indifferent ease at home so
far as the president was concerned.
But now when he and his superiors see
a pecuniary advantage in having a
friend in the collectors office they grow
very patriotic for the republican party
and the future welfare of the president
iuTevas."
Now the including of Mr.. Stewart
and leaving out of Mr.. A. G. Foster in
the list of those controlling the HERALD
is too we'll understood locally to call
for any comment. Pardon US for say
ing rig hit here that the HERALD News
company has not been under any Obli-
ga ions to the bank which Mr.. Stewart
manags s,slnce receiving the plant back
from Mr.. H awkius, its joe work even
going to otbe" printing houses. We
ask it the Times can say as much
for its position with the bank Mr..
Morehead manages? We will furnish
proof that MIR. Stewart nor anyone
connected with his bank ever wrote
line of editorial or any other mat err
for the HERALD Will the Times fur
nish proof that "A Little Hit ry'' as
not written by Mr.. Morehead? Will
it even state in its columns that he
has not often contributed 10 it's editor
ial columns, both VIXEN Mr.. Hart
was in the city and out of the city?
Mr. Moreh ad, NJ. Hart or whoever
wrote ga Lit lie History'' knew full
we'll that Mr.. j. M. Hawkins controlled
ton to saddle that mistake upon the
present management is in keeping
with its general purpose to mislead,
but the most flagr ant vic alton of any
rule of decency or honor is when it
stat s that Mr.. Reynolds was Bryan
money man or more enthusiastic Nc
kinney man coul1 not have been found
in the west than Mr.. Reynolds. A
personal friend of MIR. Mckinley be
never tired of spe aking of him in the
hi 2 hest of terms.
