pinqIey's libeIous Method.

"Our letters from all parts of the
State confirm the attitude of the Pro-
gressive rank and file touching the
United States senatorship. Even
many of the Old Guard reluctantly
support Burleigh for the Senate and
regard him as a serious handicap.
while Progressive Democrats declare
that if the Progressive party is to
receive Progressives of all party af-
filiations supporters of the Progress
sive Presidency must beware selling
out to a receiver of stolen goods. We
need moral courage to do right and to
challenge Burleigh's carrying of slop-
by water on both shoulders. Lewis
ton Journal.
The above is a specimen of several
columns of daily attack upon Cover
nor Burleigh by Editor Dingley. He
makes no tangible charges against
Governor Burleigh but leaves the av-
erage reader and the uninitiated with
the understanding that the man who
represented the Bird Congressional dis
trict of Maine for IA years, has been
not only charged but convicted of
every crime on the calendar except
murder and selling rum. Now it is
with the obvious purpose of convince
ing his readers that Governor Bur
leigh is the criminal associate and
pal of thieves, that he publishes such
an item as the above-quoted. Not
a day passes that this man, through
the vile sources of his editorial priv
ilege on large newspaper, does not
insult and assail Governor Burleigh,
and insnuate that the few friends he
grants that gentleman are fools or
scoundrels, or both. He seems to have
ings with the thousands of people of
Maine, who have known Governor
BurIeigh as long and as well as has
Editor Dingley himself, and whose
sources of information concerning that
gentlemans career are just as many
and as reliable as those available to
Editor Dingley.
The persistent abuse and bitter,
continuous and studied libel by car
rying false impressions to non-legal
minds. has become a subject of COM
ment throughout Maine. The pur-
pose of this daily TRADE must be APP
parent TO even the most partisan of
Lewiston Journal readers, for like
many other would-be assassins OF
character, Editor Dingley overreaches
himself and defeats his very purpose
by his constant exhibition of venom
Gus malice. 1t is eowardly method;
il is a libelous method; IT is Ding
ley method.
The people Of Maine will under
stand that any demand for explana-
ton of the exact meaning of any
phrase used by Editor Dingley, or
that he put his implied charges into
direct language, is met only by other
columns of invective and insinuatiou
-pretense of calculation that is more
involved and incoherent than before.

A BalIade of Greatness.

In England in the Long-ago
A bard was born and lived his day.
OF him but little do we know,
And that vague little who shall weigh?
But straight or bent or grave or gay,
our Shakespeare stood, towering mast
Above his fellows in the fray:
All other singers he surpassed.
If lesser bards to greatness grow,
Their splendor has a touch OF gray.
His light is a perpetual glow
1t has no flicker of decay.
Immortal memories with nm stay,
Our reverence for him is vast.
And we concede without delay,
All other singers he surpassed.
In sweep of unimpeded flow,
In billow-toss of flashing spray,
In murmuringS of wall and Woe
In minors that caress and play,
In symphonies that soar and stray
And to the stars their echoes cast,
His voice is free-none speak him nay:
All other singers he surpassed.
L'ENFOT
UnchaIlenged is his mighty sway,
His empire shall forever last;
Unhesitatingly we say,
All other singers he surpassed.
