THE reply to the charges of Dr. Greene by the four deposed members of the state charities board would do justice to the most hot-headed politi- clan of reconstruction days. The doc ument starts off with an appeal to prejudice and is an insult to the intel ligence of the people of Arkansas. It contains several direct answers to pr. Greene's charges and had these mem- bers confined themselves strictly to the questions at issue the matter would have resolved itself into ques- tion of veracity.-Camden Herald.
