due the Review to them is only a re-
gretabIe infection Of punishments be-
cause of an independence they could
not control.
Being honorable and just they can
do 10 wrong and perhaps they need the
money. The Review has prospered up
until a time when the other two papers
seeing that there was an opportunity
to make capital out of an unfortunate
circumstance, and when the proprietor
was in such position that he could
not defend himself these good Samari-
tans, like some others not only drew
their skirts closer about them and
passed by on the other side but they
went out of their way to lie, and into
the breach that others had made they
forced their poisonous vapors in the
hope that destruction might follow.
They succeeded. 1t is nothing new
for the devil to triumph in this world.

nothing but the kindliest feelings for

to admit that he is out classed by their
methods, and retires from the owner

ing contented that he has had the sat-
isfaction of bringing the Review up to
standard among the papers of the

AS this is the last issue of the Re
view under the present management,
the new prOprietors taking hold OF the
paper on the Goth, word in regard to
the Review and its ownership for the
past four years and more will explain
something that the Journal has had
difficulty in seeing through.
The paper was bought in June, 1908
by W. r. Hodges who sold half in
terest Immediately to A. P. Brooks
who has had the full charge Of the
paper. debating its policy and con-
Quoting its business. In September of
1904, on account of difference in poll
tical views an agreement was made
with Mr.. Hodges that the paper should
become the property of A. P. Brooks
as soon as he could find time to make
the transfer of his holdings.
The matter was delayed and the muir
der and subsequent trials disconnected
affairs so that the transfer was not
made Mr.. Liesch and Mr. Green
having entered into business agree
ment with the Review and being under
financial obligations to it, repudiated
their obligations and refused to stain
their spotless characters by any con-
tamination with the publisher, would
not honor an agreement signed by them
and refused to turn over any money to
A. P. Brooks.
So that the fairs might have the
appearance of being just, they agreed
to settle with Mr.. Hodges. Mr.. Liesch
