herein of the News Is complaint might
very, we'll have been copied from The
Tribune III the campaign Of 1908, be
cause those were precisely the things
which The Tribune trutbfullY charged
upon the church administration which
was then in power, The charge was
one which could not even be denied,
the truth was so open and notorious.
The Tribune has never wavercd in the
slightest degree from its position IN
all these matters, and ii occupies pre-
cisely that same position today, The
only difference between what We
charged then against the church ad'
ministration of this city and what the
church organ charges now. is that what
We then charged was true, open, and
notorious. whereas what is charged now
by the church organ is untrue, vindic'
tive, and malicious
But we are glad TO have the church
organ come forward in this style. be
cause it gives us the text and oppor'
tnnity to point out the fact that, in re-
turning TO reactionary or church rule IN
this city, provided such q thing were
possible, there would he no possible
hope of change for the better, but
every reason to expect and dread o
change very much for the worse.

IL is Il frequent complaint repeated
constantly in the reports of our consuls
and consular agents in foreign coun-
tries, but more particularly IN South
America and IN the Orient, that Amcrl-
can shippers do not furnish goods ae'
cording to the demand in those foreign
countries; that they do not pack AS de-
convenience; that the credits and pay
mcnts arc not according to the customs
of the countries to which the shipments
arc made; and IN general that the
American manufacturers and shippers
do not cater to the foreign demands nor
endeavor to meet its requirements AS
English and German shippers habitually
do, All these complaints have been
frequently reported. vet the Ameri-
can shippers keep right along in their

scrNauce of dcccncN, of cleanliness in

ever, that the Dcscrct News is Just
waking up To this fact, and concludes
that the attitude of The Tribune with
respect TO these matters is something
new, and put on for the present cam

prctensc, because the News has had full
evidence and perfect knowledge of The

all the time.

tends TO see hypocrisy in The Tribune S
position, and it says that tho American

changed the system little during As
