Judge Murphy then paid high compli-
ments to the other candidates on the
ticket and referred to the attack made
on him by the Examiner. Personal
abuse" said he, has always the ten
dency to bring out a mans friends.
That has been my experience. The
attack made on me Sunday served to
bring out my friends to-day, and,
thank God, l have hundreds of them.
If there is anything that appeals to

records will show that he swore in the
County Clerks office that his fathers
