The Telegram certainly was not one
tenth as personal as the News was in
reference to the managing editor of that
sheet. Wonder why they figured him
out as the one meant The Telegram
has certainly not tried to make a martyr
out Of him, nor has the News, Judging
from it's latest effort to defend him,
when the public did not know that he
needed any defense. We are constrained
to ask what it all means any way and
to inquire of the News, if it knows more

Fcvcrishly impatient at the weak
vacilIating and miserably unintelligible
and illogical campaign the News has
made, and frenzied at the ugliness Of the
product of its own handicraft, a eepper-
mead reptile of the Democratic clique,
presumably in human form, hut in
reality bearing the countenanGe Of a
freak of nature. Judging from the ema.

bided his time and crept steathily forth

rs Ehe above what makes the News so
ana1y2 Do those at home intimate that
that IS meant for the managing editor,
and, Il So how do they figure it out that
wayR Are they trying to blame i on
him in his absence DO they aelSnoN-
ledge by saying he has been assaiIed by
this paper, that ne il the party referred
to; and, If 50, why
n the frat article there IS nothing
to lead the public to the bnlief that the
managing editor Of the News was the
party referred to, nothing to even init
mate that he was guilty d any thing,
and, yet If the article is what provoked
the ire Of the News men at home, the
impression left is that they recognize
him as the one meant, and, since they do
not dany the insinuation as they call it
for him, they want to make the impress
sion that he is guilty, Or at least laey
labor That way. They go 80 far as to
say that ne is the one meant but do
not deny it. Instead they attempt to
divert the public mind from 1t after leav-
ing the impression that he is the guilty
one.
In the second editorial on the subject
by the Telegram it win be noticed that
the Democratic clique sheet Is referred
to. Here in taking that upso hurriedly
the News acknowledges again that there
is Democratic clique and that that
clique is its master. Certainly that is
not what raised the hair on their heads,
since that has been thrown up 20 them
time and time again, when the managing
editor was here, and lie did not appear
to especially resent and not to the extent
of paving the air, getting lot. of ugly
grimaees and subverting himself to his
Satanic Majesty with that impish grace
That has characterized his voluntary ac-
cusers on his staff during his absence
Since it is true, what is it that has
aroused the heathenish, barbaric, defiled
blood OF his cohorts Mt home. We gave
him credit for exposing some Things, OF
at least to having disposition to ven
tilate things that he knew to be wrong
or thought were wrong and The question
was merely asked a Democratic clique
sheet, and that term need not merely
be confined to the News since It has not
been successfully denied that there is
onother or so in this county of that
/ sort, why 1t did not expose what maze
a certain fellow lose himself and tell al
about it. That was only suggestion
in line with what sheets of that type
pretend to do. Are we to understand
that because we asked this question
that the managing editor Of the News Is
the one referred tor Do those of his
staff Mt home mean to convey this inn
pression2 Do they mean to treat it like
the manner of the horse,tnief, who
when some one else was being tried fol
the crime, persisted to such an extent in
saying that he was not the thief that
his own evidence convicted him? Does
tine News in the absence of It's managing
editor aim to convict him with something
that has not been directly charged to
him? Does that sheet mean to tell the
public that he was the one That lost
himself? It looks very much that way
from the manner in which the News has
taken the matter unto itself 1t puts
up howl like guilty man, who gives
his crime away before he has even been
accused Of it.
