4 CORRECTION OF
A CORRECTION


In the Mondays issue Of the Tele-
gram there was a comment upon the
sermon preached by Rev. S. X Ar
buthnot at the Golf Chapel on Sun
day night. Any person who was
present at the services and heard
Rev Arbuthnot. and then read the
Mondays article can easily see that
the Telegram did not mistake Rev.
Arbuthnot in any word or sentence
except in the last sentence, hereaf-
ter referred to, for Rev Arbutbnot
laid down the boad principles of
right. Justice and truth, and as the
Telegram stated on Monday, His
main thought was to vote for the
best men," and the Telegram says,
For Congress, Mr.. Hubbard is the
best. man, because he IS clean, cap
able and has brought great relief to
The people in lowering their taxes,
Chat is the conclusion reached by
the telegram. but Rev. Arbuthnot
did not mention the name of Mr..
Hubbard. nor did he mention the
name of a single candidate that was
voted for at the election on Tues
day. and this article Is written eX-
pressly for the purpose of calling
the attention Of the men VINO sign
ed the letter written to the editor OF
tie Telegram on Nov. 9th, and
printed in both the Telegram and
Daily News in which they say, cit
is true he named all of the local
candidates, and after so naming
them he declared it TO be the duty
of every voter 10 make his own Sc
lection from the men presented for
the different positions, " etc
! Now. we ask in justice TO Rev
Arhuthnot and the writer OF the
iiJst article that these men, and all
others who were present at the
church. call to mind so far as they
can the sermon that Rev. Arbuthnot
preached, and we boldly say and be
lievc that it can be proven by al
most every person present that ReU.
.lrbufhnOt dill not name the name OF
II single local cdndidate Gas the let
ter of Nov. 9th declares) but that
he merely mentioned some Of the
local offices TO be filed, for instance,
nc said. that Constable and Justice
of the Peace were 10 he elected, and
that the nearest to rs. perhaps, was
the office of school commissioner,
and then named the other offices to
be filed, but we are positive that he
did not name, as above stated, tho
name of a single candidate. But,
it is true that Rev. Arbuthnot de-
clared as in the said letter of Nov.
9th, that it is the duty of every vot-
er to make his own selections from
the men presented for different posi-
tions for which they are seeking to
be elected.
And I blieve that when the men
who have signed the letter OF the
9th reconsider the matter, that they
will rctract what they Said with ref
erencc to it being trne that Rev.
Arbuthnot named all of the local
and will, with the writer
say that he simply named the Offices
and not the men running for Office
And now. in concluding, Rev. Ar
buthnot did laud and praise the
President of the United States for
his courageous stand in advocating |
the principles which he stands for,
and thanked God that this country |
had such man as he in the Presi-
dental chair. He also landed the |
great era of prosperity which the |
State and Nation are now enjoying, |
but he did not ddUiSc dIiY member of |
his congregation TO continue The
prosperity by polling The Republican
ticket, but he did declare that u WGs
the duty of eUesy Uoter To-. IN all
cases, vote for tho best men, ares
pectiUe of party OF policies, for the
parious offices to be- filed
