The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1903-08-27

The raciest piece of campaign
literature that we have seen so
far is the arraignment of Abe
Steinberger by Editor Brame
Dalton of the West Point Times
Herald. Referring to Steinber
gers animosity to Judge Critz,
and as Il reason therefor, Mr..
Dalton says;
ain February he made Judge
Critz's compaign managers
proposition to work for Critz at
500 per week, which infamous
proposition was spurned.'
Are we to infer from this that
Steinberger is now inventing lies
about Judge Critz merely 'to
keep his hand in,' or that some
body is paying him 500 a week
to do that kind of dirty work
for Vardaman?
Referring to Steinberger's re-
sponsibility and character, Mr..
Dalton says;
"He says he has $4,000 invest
ed in business and is good for
either civil or criminal libel. He
lies when he says he is worth
$4,000. Parties in Okolona paid
off mortgage on his chattels in
Kansas before he could move
here"
And again:
"Imnediateiy after he came
to Mississippi he was sent as a
delegate to the Populito Presi
Dental Convention in Cincinnati
and sold the Populite secrets to
the X p b cans tor $4,000.
| With this amount of money he
got hold OF the Okolona Messen
ger, a dwelling and a storehouse,
making partial payments for the
property. [ have it from a reli-
able source that he is hopelessly
involved and his own relatives
/ are threatening to foreclose the
mortgages"
And this is Steinberger. This
is the fellow whose foul pen at
tempts to besmirch the charac.
ter of a Mississippian whose fel
low-citizens have always delight
ed to honor. Ugh. the stencil
of his offending arises even unto
, the heavens.

They tried one bottle, giving two tea.
