THE BLACKMAILER ‘A Blackmailer, or any one who would hint at blackmail, is'a worm of the earth, a coward at heart, and fit only for the scorn and contempt of all honorable men. ‘A Blackmailer preys upon the innocent and the guilty: alike. He invents schemes to intimidate the virtuous, and preys ‘upon the misfortunes and frailities of the weak—for gold. Like the hyena, he slinks forth in the night, in search of vic- tims, but scurries to cover at the first ray of light. . He visits the tombs of the dead. of the lowly. Like the sewer rat he is bold and cunning, fattens ‘upon filth of the earth, but is blinded by the rays of the noonday sun. He may wax rich; he may even reach a:place of affluence; but.in the end he will craw] upon his belly before men and be- come an outcast to society. These are the sentiments of the people of Casper..
