So far as l can make out, Hoff-

to tell Hoelter what a horrid paper
The Day Book is, and what nice
verdict the jury returned in the Hay
case.
Some one often writes articles Of
this kind" says one part of the let
ter, "and sends them out to poison
the minds of people and to set the
so-caIled masses against the classes. -

I'd had a good sleep the night before,
my digestive organs were working all

was just trying ito poison the minds
of people" or their bodies either, or
that I was writing with the object Of
bringing on French revolution or
something! 1 don't think was doing
that even yet, and I think Hoffman's
mistaken about it.
OF course, 1 don't blame Hoffman
for being sure the verdict In the Hay
case, or in any other case, is nice
verdict. If wanted to get an inter

do not see what the fact that
there were five pastors on the jury
has to do with the case. Very likely
some of them were brought up to be
pastors by their parents so far as that
goes.
Anyway, if The Tribune was so
anxious to tell its readers of the per-
sonnet of the jury, why didn't it also
mention that one member of the jury
was a negro2
The Tribune also records that the
Rev. Edward Hoelter, foreGaan of the
Jury, has six children. THIS is down
right interesting to me- l hope the
six children get along well and never
quarrel, and that the boys grow up
to be ministers like their father.
