AN OPEN LETTER

TO the Editor of the Daily Republican.
Yesterday, in Ignorance Of the ethics
of journalism, and in defiance Of its
decencics, you printed smart" edi-
toriol which was intended as a per-
sonal offense to me. AS your attack is
not upon the Evening Journal but
upon me, shall answer you over my
signature. You are evidently stin
writhing under the lash that has been
applied by the Evening Journal be-
cause OF your remarkable conduct as
a politician and a public Official
The structures on DR.. Frantz which
you read in the Evening Journal wero
called forth by an insulting remark
which showed that he was not a man
Of the character we want for Mayor Of
this city. You must not strive to earn
the same epithet; it is yo6rs without
further effort on your part.
Permit me to say that you inter-
meddled needlessly: it is not your
fight, and even DR.. Frantz can take no
comfort from defense by you. If you
are eager to employ your pen, there is
"a political contest of great moment
now on that offers sufficient scope for
your talents.
II this discussion leads to the con-
sideration OF moral question we shall
regard you as ineligible. You are too
vulnerable to be worth a dart. II you
descend to personalities. a page or two
of your. interesting biography may
prove instructive and illuminating. If
you wish to attack the editorial ut
terances of the Evening Journal, do so.
and you win probably be ignored. But
If you seek to befoul the editor. he
may answer you over his own sigma
ture But you must expect to be
hayed;; it is so easy. You will be
taken into the woodshed while an arr
gument is applied that will cause you
to confess repentance. Now remem-

Daniel =. Stewart announces that IN
the event OF failure TO have common
primaries he will head ticket COM
posed from both factions and go be-
fore the people. Mr. Stewart has
right TO act in this manner II he sees
1T, but such course appears ill-ad-
vlsed and illogical.
In becoming the Addicks candidate,
Or. Frantz stands on a platform op-
posing common primaries. That was
the position OF the organization which
nominated him.
Mr.. Bowers. as the Regular Republi-
can nominee. stands on a platform de-
manding common primaries and which
opposes outside dictation. There is
nothing equlvocal about the position of
either.
Now where does Nr. Stewart propose
to stand2 There isn't anything left
but a straddle. II ne believes in COM
mon primaries, as he says, then hi,
position is identical with that Of the
Regular Republicans, and there he
should be found. To take a middle
course means that his platform is fol
common primaries, or not for common
primaries. just 40 Daniel F. Stewart
is the nominee.
We have no wish 10 discourage Mr.
Stewart IN his hght we have no criti
cism OF his personal fitness, but vi
are unable TO see that there IS an is
sue calling for his candidacy w
can't see that he can represent an,
principle or any idea not already rep
resented.

cash influence as are any in the state;
and it'should know whereof It speaks.
There is an exercise in the use Of
pronouns which as class exercise
would prove most entertaining. We
cut from the Chronicle another little
gem on local resort on the bay, which
seems to be defense Of the rights Of
the mosquito.
Like all other resorts on the ocean
shore. the mosquito is a more or less
annoyance at some seasons; but even
at the worst period, the cottagers and
hotel guests are well protected by
screens; and as their season lasts but
ten days, they cut but little figure.
This was doubtless intended to en-
courage the mosquito by the COM
forting statement that the cottagers
cut but little figure as their season
lasts but ten days.

sir Thomas Advertised

From London Answers.
Some fifteen years ago Sir Thomas
Upton, or Mr.. Upton, as he was then,
was a passenger on an East Indian
steamer, bound for Ceylon.
While in the Red Sea the boat was
disabled, and 1t became necessary to
throw overheard a part of her cargo.
Upton was an interested spectator OF
the preparations for tightening the
ship.
Suddenly he fled from the scene, and
after n short but earnest conversation
with the chief engineers, secured "A
stencil, a paint brush, and pot OF
black paint Then, to the astonish-
ment Of the captain and passengers, he
cheerfully labeled each box and bale
thrown overheard with the magic
Upton" which has since become a
household word wherever his commod-
tiles are used.
The cargo, OF course, noated ashore,
and for miles in Arabia and other lands
the natives saw that legend. Suisse
quently. the passengers on the injured
steamer were compelled to abandon II
and take to small boats
on reaching land. Sir Thomas was
the first to get a cable office, and wire
news of the destruction OF the boat and
safety Of the travellers in London. the
message was signed "Lipton.' OF course
his name was I'm every English news
paper the next morning signed to thai
message. and he was the best adVer
tised man i'm the whole of the Kingdom

AS between Grover Cleveland's judg-
ment that the influence and power OF
the newspapers have diminished in re-
cent years, and that of Justice Brewer
that the press is doing q mighty work
