JEROME,

The Richmond Newsletter is
loud in its praise Of District Attor-
ney Jerome of New York, and boil
ly asserts that it has always believe !
in him, and admires him especially
because he has dared to do what he
thought to be right and sensible In
defiance of excited and MISGUIDED
public sentiment. What paper
would admire a man who would do
otherwise? Is any man deserving of
admiration who would not do what
his conscience dictates?
The News-Leader says in part:
AT large meeting in Cooper
Union few nights ago he appeared
suddenly on the speakers stand and
i1nouncei that he will call gen
eral meeting in one Of the largest
