In Justice to
Mayor Boyd

The Press made an ugly slip
OF the pom yesterday. IT'S all
our fault. The "his" in one OF
the sentences, in the slum ex-
pose, referred to the realty
men, and not 10 the mayor. The
idea was a. follows:
The mayor did not know the
real motive under the scheme
OF the realty men. The next
move was to get the ministers
to drive the birds into his trap.
A. originally written, the
sentence read that the mayor
was doing the dove-driviug.
The Press never has taken that
ground, ana hereby expressly,
without waiting to hear from
the mayor, or his friends,
makes haste to correct the un-
Intentional error.
