ANOTHER LIE NAILED.

Some ultra partisan Republican news
paper which are now being furnished
with lot of stuff by the Republican
Literary Bureau, contain the
following:
said candidate Parker two years
ago; II think that dollar day is
enough for any man, provided that
his work is steady Amy man can live
on that: and that is all unskilled la
Dor is worth. am sorry have to
pay more than that, and wouldn't if
we had better supply of labcr.
Does the judge still retain these
views2"
The above lie has also been sent
promiscuously all over the country
on a postal card, over the signatures
of three men. The following is what
these three men say about it:
We and each OF US, the said Emery
Freer. being a Demo. rat, and the
said Samuel Mott, and wis Booth,
Republicans, depose and say as to
the statement in said article.
First; That we are the identical
persons named in the article and III
whose presence Judge Parker was al
legged to have made said statement,
Second: That no such conversation
ever took place, either at the store OF
Emery Freer, or any other place, and
that Judge Parker never made the
statements attributed to him at
Freer's store or any other place. to
the knowledge of either of u.s.
Third: That the statement is false
in substance and in fact.
Fourth: That to our knowledge.
Judge Parker, since he has resided in
Esopus. has paid the usual and going
rate OF wages to all the men employ
ed by him on his place.
In addition the said Emery Freer
for himself says, that he has frequent
ly during the absence OF Judge Park
.er, paid the Judges employees; has
time and time again cashed checks
given to said employees for wages, and
of his knowledge says that Judge
Parker has always paid the going
rate of wages to all men employed as
day farm laborers on his farm to wit:
from one dollar and half to ore dol
lar and seventy FIVE cents day and
that the statement to the contrary
published as aforesaid is untrue and
absolutely without foundation.

THE PRESIDENTS BIOLOGISTS.
H. G. LIGHT, Assistant.

THE PRESIDENTS BIOLOGISTS.
Dear Editor
1t is disgusting to any evel.headed
man to read OF such fawning syco-
phancy as is INDUCED in when they
prais the President, who was not
elected by the people. Roosevelt |
admit, is brave man, and SO much
stress is laid upon that phase of his
Character by his supporters that l am
forced to say that l cannot throw a
stone in the streets without hitting
one. Brave men are very common in
America l am proud to say.
That Roosevelt is patriotic. I ad-
nit; but not as much SO as the quar-
ter of million men who gave up
their precious lives during the
the Civil War, That he is loyal hus-
band and devoted father we all know
is true, yet this broad land is peUpled
with such That he is a successful pro
tessional politician I almost admit,
but success does not canonize man
as saint That he is like the Thane
Of Cawdor bloody, bold and resolute, "
also admit That he is a man of
overwhelming ambition and monu-
mental egotisru both his friends and
enemies agree.
| have read with interest Roose-
velt's works, comprising history, es-
saws and sporting articles, and have
seen nothing i'll them to show that
the author, in his views of men and
things, Is above mediocrity. AS a
histo ian the President is. in the
vernacular, bowling failure; beside
Hume, Macaulav, Theirs, LOSING
b ,ncrott he sas pigmy to a noun
t4in--a mouolith to the Washington
monument. In his sporting articles he
sinks out of sight when compare d
with Cummings, Hrrnaday, Frank
F. roster, Alex Hunter, Casper Whit
ney, Coquina, and others. AS an ora
tor he is as much of failure as he
is writer. AS political speaker he
can vociferate rant and tear a passion
to ta1ters. can we'll recall his career
on the stump four years ago. He
kept the Republican managers on
tenterhooks, and in the campaign in
New York the Democratic rabble,
knowing his uugovernable temper,
used to bait him like a mad bull.
AS professional politician l take
off my hat to him. In the three years
that he has been scheming for a re
nomination and election his course
has been one of running with the
hare and hunting with the hounds.
He never takes ride on railroad
that he does not shake hands with the
engineer and fireman for the purpose
of making himself solid with the
workingmen. He never did this song
and dance business before he was
Pre- sident.
There is not labor organization or
religious sect or secret society that he
has not gotten his fine word in upon
and there is no record that he ever
bothered himself with these bodies
and fraternities before he was on the
make.
The wise and dignifed members OF
the Republican party were bitterly OPP
posed to his nomination, but they
could not help themselves. They
knew that if hey turned their backs
on him and nominated any other man
for President that Roosevelt would
have smashed the machine and
"busted" the Republican party to
pieces; it was "Aut Caesar aut null
lus" with i'm, and they knew it.
