sincere? What consideration has the Democratic
party received at its hands? Has it not studiously
refrained from saying orprinting anything about
that party that it could possibly avoid? Is not the
report of their county convention just about all the
mention the Democrats have received? 1t has. on
two different occasions, printed articles eulogzng
the Hon. j. A. Melville for district judge but
has it said one word about Judge Joshua Green

have twice before honored for the office of Judge?

The facts are the facts Prove the position
of the Observer by referring to its columns! We
invite a comparison Of the Record with it on any
proposition where fairness and impartiality are
involved.
The statement of the associate editor of the
Observer (also the liable" editor of the Great
Campaign) that The Record is or has been pre-
tending to be Republican in policy is such an
absurd falshood as to be nothing less than silly,
It's own statement Immediately preceding this one
giving it the lie. Don't deceive yourselves,
plotters the people not always as foolish as they
appear to be. The statement by Abraham Lin
coin that you can't fool the people all the time. is
moro Yotent TODAY than ever before
If The Record had desired and could have
had the opportunity to cause the publication in
the columns of the Observer OF an article des-
lignated to rebound to its own benefit. 1T could
not have done better than has that paperin the
publication of its iniquitous. though ridiculous,
attack on The Record and its supporters.
Judging from the number OF expressions OF
indignation by the leading businessmen of the city,
the organ of the knockers" will be made to feel
and know that such despicable methods will not
? be tolerated in this community.
And now, word to the authG of the article:
