The Chronicle, a Hired Hypouite

well knows but carefully refrains from
exposing. These men are all known
In their districts, If not to the public
at large, and they can gather only one
kind OF support around them. That
support is not the majority of the peo-
pie nor the consensus Of good citizen
ship of San Francisco. The Chronicle
knows that, and is deliberately seeking
to encourage what 1t knows to be
wrong, as against what 1t knows to be
right.
This attitude OF pretended impair
tiality in a moral struggle is a dis
tinctly immoral attitude. GO 1t, hus-
band; go it, bear!" means a secret hope
for the bears victory. And to treat the
whole thing as merely q personal
struggle between one set of politicians
and another, with the victory presum-
ably to go to those who know the
game of intrigue best, Is deliberately
to ignore the whole moral issue. The
Chronicle knows. for 1t has said
thousand times. that the railroad polit-
ical bureau controls the politics of CAL
ifornia- 1t knows and has often said
that this control is wrong. 1t knows,
and does not pretend to deny, that the
Lincoln Roosevelt league is the one
practical, sincere and organized effort
to undo that wrong. 1t knows, though
1T carefully conceals, that the chief
forces opposed to the league are those
who stand openly for what the Chron-
icle believes is wrong. 1t knows that
this is a conflict of right and wrong
and Ii does not care which wins. Or
rather, it hopes the wrong will win.

FROM THE FRESNO REPUBLICAN

TYHE most vicious of all the attacks
4 on the Lincoln Roosevelt league
\ are undoubtedly those in the
news columns of the Chronicle.
Open editorial opposition like that of
the Oakland Tribune and the graft
weeklies discounts itself by it's own
indecency, and discredits any colored
news that may accompany it. But the
Chronicle, accrediting itself by tim
idly reputable editorial policy and a
conservative manner of displaying
the news, proceeds in it's news columns
to lie shamelessly and plausibly in re-
gard to the work of the league. To
illustrate, it said only yesterday that
the election of l.. o. Stephens as mayor
of Fresno seven years ago was a re-
cent defeat of the Lincoln Roosevelt
league Presumably, also, the very ex-
cellent administration which Mr.. Ste
phens gave us for four years is one of
the reasons why the league should not
receive the support of good citizens
Also perhaps, the extreme accuracy of
these news reports is one of the rea-
sons why they. are being clipped out
and distributed over the state in plain
envelopes, by the same anonymous
news bureau that distributed Ruefs
affidavit and other graft literature.
The worst of the Chronicles misrep-
resentations are It's exaggerated re-
ports of organized opposition to the
league by sundry San Francisco district
politicians, whose records the Chronicle
