il untruthful. The Free Lance didn {
say IL was. 1t don't guarantee the
truth Of all the news it publishes, and
its editorial was careful to say that

Of the Democratic party in the State

Democrats has been that high tariff

The short news paragraph published

fed, certainly not condemned. II Mr..

criticisms don't apply.
The Spectator takes exception to the
statement Of The Free Lance that Con =
