1t was eloquently stated in behalf
of Mr.. Michel early in the campaign
that he was too high-minded and gen
erous to make use of the Dear
Henry" letter against Judge Hall.
Recently the friends and campaign
managers of the city candidate, with
out any expression of disapprovad
from him, have gone to the length
of offering to buy evidence calculated
to tarnish the character and reputa-
ton OF his Ouachita competitor. The
defense advanced in justification OF
the abandonment of clean methods
and a resort to mudslinging is that
the other side began it, but this
excuse is inadequate to palllate the
nasty kind of mud that is being dug
up or the still nastier means adopted
in the digging. The stuff soils the
people who handle it more than It
does the man they throw it at.
