THE LOWE CARD
Some Facts Regarding a Weak Effect
to Make Capital out Of
Typographical Error.


ring, EDITED BY ONE OFFICIAL OF
THE COUNTY, the tool of the poll
ticians and the laughing stock OF
Brunswick, showed its hand yesterday
afternoon and fine Italian hand it
is-one as keen as ever cut 4 throat
or scuttled a ship.
Monday afternoon Mr.. J. NJ Lowe
the well known painter, than whom
there is not a better citizen in Bruins
wick, called at The News office ana
rendered card for publication. The
card protested against the effort pf
the managers OF the ring circular
to foster the sheet upon him against
his will and claimed that the same
circular had charged him for the
notice of the funeral of his little
child The linotype wrote the name
" ]. A. Lowe" instead of ~ NJ Lowe
as it was signed in the original card,
which is of record in this office
The editor of The News realizing
that the mistake might put one, j.
A. Lowe, In false position, called
at the Office of the afternoon circu
lar and requested the peculiar freak
that presides there to make the state,
ment. He stated that he would do
SO and, in fact, wrote the nQtieq,
HqWevsn. instead Of printing it, he in.
serted in his politically bought sheet
a dirty diatribe trying to mislead the
Public into the belief that The News
had manufactured the card III ques.
tion. "The Boomerang Butts Back"
does it? 1t butts back into the face
of the cowardly puppet who wrote
the line, the tool Vt q few, q nroh.
ably of ONE POLITICIAN AND OF
FICH HOLDER, of about the same
calibre as the freak: The affidavit
OF J. A. Lawe was not necessary as
the editor Of The News advised the
freak that an error had been made
on it's linotype and showed him the
original copy signed by Mr.. /. NJ
I4oge. Instead of keeping faith with
his promise he takes occasion to use
the following words in connection
With the affidavit Of ], A, L9we. @Here
is all the answer needed to show to
what desperate straits some may ba
driven The desperate straits ap-
pear to be displayed by the freak, who
probably wanted to make good before
his ''boss'' and chief emergency edi-
torialists. The name of the editor
of the News is at its masthead and
he gets his inspirations from n9 Of:
officehglding crew Of peanut Politicians
The statement that the editor of
this paper was driven to straits is
a lie and the man who wrote it is
liar. 1t cannot be stated positively
who wrote it but whoever the can
fits '.look good to u.s.
In the meantime the facts remain
that the political circular was thrust
into the home of Mr.. Lowe and that
the sheet did charge him for the
funeral notice of his little child.
The card is here on record. How
does this strike the freak aud the
bunch of political tricksters he has
at his back2
