USES BITTER LANGUAGE ’;llf:n M. Atwood, Chairman of the Com- mittee on Speakers, Wrote the An-| swer—Declares the Fair Fame of] One Who in His Lifetime Had Been 2 Great Man Was Sold for an! Amount of Money. Chicago, Sept.- 2—A formal TeDlY! to the ante-mortem article written by former "President Grover Cleveland, udvocating the election of Tatt, came from the headquarters of the Demo-} “cratic national committee. It was| written by John M. Atwood, member of the committee from Kansas and ohairman of the committee on speak- | kers. The reply which Mr. Atwood Igkve out follows: i “Never since Dr. Rufus Griswold | betrayed the ‘trust that was his as | literary eecutor of Edgar Allan Poe | and mutilated the memeory of him | Whose literary representative he was | has there been such a' flagrant be.! traval of trust by one sustaining a | fiduciary _relation toward dead as when Mr. Frederick S. H. Ings sold for money the fair fame of one who in his lifetime. had been a great man, H “The Grover Cleveland article | which has been exploited by the Re- publican national committee was in- | { tended by its publishers to lead the | reading public to believe that if Mr. | Cleveland were living today he would be one of Mr. Taft’s political cham- | pions, “It must be borne in mind that ’lhls article, cenceding its unperverted authenticity, was written before the Republican national convention; be- fore the character of its delegates could have been known; before it was known that these delegates were so far from being untrammeled repre- sentatives of a free people as to be marjonettes moved by the will of an- | other; before the convention had re- | tused to speak for honesty in elec- I tions by refusing to declare for pro- election publication of campaign con- | | tributions; before the convention pro- | mulgated socialism, by declaring that the government should go into the banking business; - should establish postal savings banks. Twice Made Cleveland President. “The worst enemy of the dead pres- ident could not have more perfectly | | misrepresented his mental attitude to- | ward public’ affairs than to proclaim that, if living, he would have advocat- ed the candidacy of one who was ar- rayed as a leader against the party that had twice made him president; one who was standing on a platform that placedthat candidate’s party.-out- side the pale of common honesty; a platform that promulgated a political tenet that had for its central thought A soclalistic seed. For a party today that will not proclaim the source | of its campaign income is for that party to say that it expects income from sources that it dare not proclaim. “Can anyone imagine Grover Cleve- land, whose primal characteristic was | henesty, advocating the election of a candidate who stood for admitted dis- honesty of purpose? “It the postal savings bank is estab- lished, the federal government goes to the banking business, and so- ¢lalism is just that, viz: the introduc. tlen of the government into the field of private enterprise. Can anyone {magine that stern old individualist, Grover Cleveland, advecating the elec- tion of one who stood for even semi- socialism? “To misquote the dead, who have kmown naught but private life, is a shameful thing; to misconstrue the dead, whose life is a part of the coun- try’s history, and to exploit that mis- resentation as a political asset, is both a shameful and a wicked thing.” ELECTION OF SENATOR.

Des Moines, Sept. 2.—Senator Moon of Wapello and Representative Demar of Dayis Democrats, introduced joint- ly in the house and senate a resolu- tion asking that the assembly proceed to the election of a United States sen- ?or for the short term.

In the crash the Corsair's foretop mast was brought down on - deck and crashed through the roof of the deck: house. No one on board the Cofsair was injured. 3 The New Hampshire was anchored while her crew strapped a piete of canvas over the hole in her side and then proceeded to her dock. Fatal Duel on Street.
