Scared After Election.


The fact that the News did not
place stress on the alleged discovery
of "a dirty trick" and did not play
it up under big headlines, as was
the natural thing TO do If others wers
to be charged for the circulation of
the infamous poster, at once caused
suspicion. Instead of 1t treating IL
with signal Importance, it did not
much more than mention it and the
dirty trick" article in question APP
peared In its columns as an ordinary
article under a suspiciously small
head, which fact is taken to mean
that it was even frightened after the
election over. the dastardly work Of
the conspirators, who in the shades
Iof night formulated the attack on
the Catholic church, printed it and
had 1t surreptitiously circulated.
The only refutation of the I'M
founded assertion made quietly and
in an underhanded manner that the
Telegram had amy thing to do with
or was in any way responsible for
the infamous poster, that is at all
necessary is to state that this office
and this paper do not have the styles
of type the poster was printed I'm,
while the headlines frequently used
by the News, as SHOWN ny tue repro
ductions here, that paper does have
those styles of type.
The Telegram has fully refuted
and proved that the poster was not
printed by 1t or in its office, and as
the circumstances point to the News
itself, which modestly announced
that the poster had been printed and
circulated, and just as modestly des-
rignated it "a darty trick since
which time 1t has held its peace AMI
remained painfully silent, 1t appears
to the average mind that, If 1T is not
guilty, 1t Is incumbent upon 1t to es-
tabIish it's innocence.
The evidence as here furnished
must be accepted by the public as
conclusive that the Clarksburg Daily
News was guilty of this outrage.

Iigion in general. until that paper
furnishes proof to the contrary. The

sorted to all methods fair or unfair

Daily News Type.
1t will be observed from. these re-
productions that the display lines
used in the Francis hand-bill and
the headlines of the two issues of
the Daily News reproduced are ex-
lactly the same kind of type. For
those not familiar with styles of
type, attention is called to the fact
that the letters trrvthe headlines OF
the Daily News in the two issues re-
produced are of the same series and
style as that used in the Francis

the RS Note the. little notch just

Compare the Ms. the VS., the F''s, in
fact compare all letters which appear
in both. At once one must conclude
that they are all of the same style
of type. The average printer will
Immediately recognize that the type
used In the haud-ball and the Daily
News headings is of the same style
and series without the necessity of
going into such minute detail or
comparison. Printers are familiar
with all the different series of type
used in printing and none have seen
these but to pronouncS them the

1t will be further observed from
the reproductions of the Daily News
as herein given, which are true cop
les, that the Gothic type employed
for the smaller headlines of that

fdentically the same style of type as
that used for the two lower lines of

convincing evidence of the source or
origin of the Francis poster.

As has already been explained in these

made no other demands. Mrs. Pear
son declares that many of the land
owners who have received large sums
from the smelters were not entitled to
the money. There is a farmer near

ceived from the United States smelter

II Was Easy Money.
THE United States smelter would
never have been compelled to close had
il not been for the company's eagerness
to deal fairly with the farmers" said
Mrs. Pearson. THE smelter has paid
out large sums of money to land owners
without investigating the business of
their claims. In this way, widespread
cupidity was aroused. 1t was so easy
to get money from the company that
many persons who were not in the
least injured by fumes from the smelt-
er made demands for money.
Il have lived in Sandy nineteen years
and own land near this place. In all

But | was constantly hearing per-
sons who came to my restaurant dis
cussing the manner in which money

Many of these persons had no right to
demand damages, and their claims
would have been rejected had investi-
