 '2. That he regrets the error, desires to apologize to Senator Lusk and that he will make correction in a signed statement in The Age Herald.

 a restraction in the paper A. That he considers Senator Lusk s method in publicly Haunting a newspaper mans innocent mistake before the mem- bers of the senate at a time when the | newspaper man had no other recourse than to sit unwillingly in his seat and hear this attack, was unjust in it's nature, and that he thinks Senator LuslS's sense of fairness and justice will mpel him to withdraw his unjust criticism"
