For some days Candidate Taylor or his henchmen have been circulating base lies concerning M. R . Denver. So desparate has TayloFs campaign become that all forms of underhanded work will be resorted to. The Herald, hear- lag that Denver was charged as being a Catholic, loafer" in questionable places, etc., a letter was sent to Dr. W . A . Fer­ guson, pastor o f the Presbyterian church in Wilmington, asking him to verify the reports. As we were not aware that he*had moved the letter was forwarded. The reply is certainly interesting. Marseilles!)., Oct. 20 ,1908. Mr. Karlh Bull, My. Bear Sit:— I have just changed residence as Presbyterian pas­ to r from Wilmington, Ohio, to a church at the above ad­ dress. Have been here but ten days. I have understood reports have been in circulation, re garding the reputation o f Hon, M, R . Denver of the Sixth District, that he made his headquarters at a Certain ques­ tionable drugstore next door to a certain bank. I want to; say that such ja without foundation There is not such a store at that point in the fifst place, and Matthew Denver as not a man o f that stamp. H e is straight, honorable and clean. He is a trustee in th* Presbyterian church o f Wilmington where I was pastor fop fon r years and a most useful and honorable man* I very much regret the injustice o f the reports and hereby bear, fny testimony to his moral and upright eharact ter. He BHOTJI j D be re-elected for he is a most worthy tRjUL . I do not favor unworthy men o f my own party (Re­ publican), but being a Republican X favor most decidedly M, R . Denver* a Democrat* Very truly yours, W . A. Ferguson. Ifc Is a most ungracious aci for any man to attack the dead, hut since Sir* Taylorhftft done so, it might not he amiss to relate of the pal riot- Toatmosphere m which hewas rear­ ed, It might also he in place i» say that Taylor-himself was a Demo­ crat unlit he became the.autocrat o f his father-in-law’s hrenkfnet table. In the Jamestown Journal last week we noticed a. Jotter from J, H- Wickersham attacking H. R. Den- vet’ s father. Reeling that Wicker- $ham had not acted wisely two years ago In bringing Buck "a charge into the campaign, the Editor oi the Herald sent the followingJotter: Hr,J.H. Wjckereham, Greenfield, O. Oct. 37- Deaf B l r I notice by the James- towtt-Journal a letter published over ybur signature containing informa­ tion .concerning General Denver,’ father of Congressman Denver. "A sa rule parental- history should not enter into a campaign where sons are,contesting for public office. But as your letter hears the ear marks of contempt I cannot hut feel that you should he given some '.‘ parental history’ ’ on the other Side. In the first place it appeal's rath*, er 'strange that you have waited two years to divulge the secret; Why was it that you did. not send out Such a letter two years 'ago to C. Q. Hildebrant?

He has -been grasping every-$tra>V that has been in the political air smeedastMarch.

To the honor of General Denver, he enlisted and served in defence of hlB country. To datv the only organization known that tho senior Taylor belonged to was the one re­ ferred to above.

C. T. U., but ho has added another name to his list and that is the Rev. Georg© D. Black o fYellow Springs, promi­ nent in temperance work over the county. It Wilt bo remembered that Rev, BffiOk preached a strong temperance sermon some weeks agO during the Sabbath evening open air meetings. Jesse,is dajlyproving. his sincerity in the temperance work- Is it any wonder that he cannot get the support Of the dry elementin blSAWritown? No cause isknOwfi for the unwarranted at­ tack on Rev, Black. .. A FORAKER MOVE/ Some weeks ago the Herald ex­ posed apian of the Board of Elec­ tions to appoint judges and clerks without seriously considering the recommendations ;«f the central committee. Later a letter was sent oritin which nine names ye fo requested. Saturday Mr. J, 0, Townsley ap­ peared beforri the board and urged the appointment of bis names.. He sent in names such men ris G.

Urtale Joe Cannon and Jeeso Tay­ lor ato each aftef certain newspa­ pers In their reaperfiv« districts. Tuesday morrtmg dispatches tell of Uncle Joe cursing the newspaper reporters at the depot in Ht. Louis on Monday. Th* newspapers Inthe West, magaslne# and Ilk# publica­ tions have been making a dete’rmin od effort to defeat the corrupt speaker oi the house. Is it, any wonder that J#*#e Taylor refused to Answer qnestion* and took occasion to “ even up*’ with the Herald at the meeting Monday avening. Both candidates *ht unable theprww. to etihsidifce Would tho Suppression of tiie Sa­ loons leave a grepfc number pf peo­ plenow employed m th© manufac­ ture and sale of intoxicants, out of work? No; for the millions Of dol- lors that are now spent, for drink would be ©pent, for clothing and shoes and house furniture, etc., and to meet the extra demands on the market in these lines new demands for labor would be created. Ifc is foolish to think that if men stopped, putting their millions into the saloon business these .millions would riot be turned intOsomo other kinds of business. ' Do we want the saloons in Greene county? It so, why? Who are they? Think of all you can of that kind and stand them up in a row if they will stand.

This bein'g a church going community where secret orders are not in the best o f favor* the candidate eliminated a part o f his appeal. He had also been informed that certain questions - would be asked him as to local option, W . C, T,.

I t will be remembered that t f e p e r a ld ia the last issue asked Taylor to explain the road ,»out o f part o f their Toadmohey. , ,B, . The only other speaker was H on .. Francis Treadway, Candidate for lieutenant governor. H e made a good Im­ pression on his audience. * Quiettyi conservatively, and can­ didly,'the issues o f the campaign was discussed. Governor Harris was paid a high tribute. I t was to be regretted that the candidate for the second highest office in the state should haveto speak second, thus playing, second fiddle to a subservient tool o f a trust senator, as a .candidate for con­ gress. By the time Taylor had finished, the audience had become thoroughly tired but listening to his tin-pan oratory consequently Mr. Treadway did not have the best of order; The contrast between the two speakers was freely commut­ ed upon by members of both parties. Mr. J. W* Pollock presided over the meeting and intro­ duced the speakers. He stated his views on the campaign and that the ticket suited most every body except Mrs. Flatter, who was a good Christian woman but a Democrat. The remark caused considerable amusement. , » ) I •i. i i i 11 {$’ uI t P a y s to T ra d e In S P R IN G F IE L D .
