The truth is, if Mr.. Howard had
at any time been authorized by Mr..
Presley to register there would
never have been any denial on the
part of Mr.. Howard when asked
if he had registration books in his
possession.
Mr.. Howard. states that in a for
mcr issue of local newspaper that
| had alleged that it was due to my
strenuous efforts that Precinct No.
% went Democratic. UnderStan
me. Mr.. Howard, in the language of
the Immortal Shakespear, that is
an odious D-n lie! | have never
asked any newspaper or any per-
Son employed by any newspaper TO
say one word for, or concerning
me, nor has any publication ever
published even a suggestion of mine
think YOU are mistaken Brother
Howard, when YOU say that Mr..
PTcsley's Special Registrar made it
his business to register all the law
NApAt AOA - ~ NOh lCNdll llldl IlG
did not register you? | am not GER
tain that YOU meant for me to ans
wer your inquiry about who the
voters were that so valiantly sup
ported the Democratic Candidates
at the last election, but | take the
greatest pleasure in explaining to
you that there was not one among
them as ! recall. whose record is
not as good as your own. Seems
that YOU should remember that
quite a number of Democrats in
this precinct and out of it for that
matter were hauled in Baby" Hen
delsOn'S automobile which you
have in your possession, and sever
al other cars to the Republican
meetings to cast their votes for
you or for Republican Central Com
mtteemen, and if you have forgot
ter about the incident, probably
NJ. Gabe can inform you, for | am
certain that he must remember
since it was he whom you defea,-
ed for the Republican Central Com
mitteemenShip with the votes OF
some of those whom you would
now denounCe.
My action in the matter Of Mr.
Howard'S fraudulent practices dur
ing the recent registration was
prompted by the fact that it wa,
my duty as the Democratic Central
Committeeman in and for Precinrt
Nc. % to protect the interests OF
the Democratic party. The election
has passed, and | do not see any
need for Mud singing" and Ill
feeling, yet, if that is the proper
ideals in the minds of some of my
good friends CD, keep it up, and
"By Gosh" we will 60 some.
Mr.. Howard seems to be suffer
ing with a convulSive attack of The
brains. and unless something hap
pens a great calamity will occuI
in the seat of his consciousness.
wonder if Mr.. Howard would
like for the public to know tha
he had so little confidence in his
own ability to spell and compose
an article that it was necessary fOI
him to take his original which ap,
peared in a local newspaper dated
MAY 5th, 1920 to the office of Mr.
C. +. Corbett, an attorney at law
, for revision, and since Mr.. Howard
is so much interested in benefitin-
the public for uncovering the shOrt
comings of others, | might resolv,
to publish a copy of the original t,
the article presented by him for
revision to Attorney c. f. Corbett
as was obtained by the scribe from
the handwriting of Mr.. Howard
which was obtained from the or.
iginal copy while in the office OF
Mr.. Corbett, and let the public
