But at the same time it is a matter of supreme indifference to me whether Mr. Levand insists upon holding me responsible for the utterances of the Tom, Cat or not. His own intelligence and conscience, if he has either, must be his guide. If Mr. Levand chooses to unearth an incident: of twenty-eight years ago and publish the, particulars, I haven’t the slightest objection so long as he tells the truth and the facts. The incident referred to is a perfectly innocent one as was established in the courts at the time, and if I for a moment thought the particulars would be of interest to the public, I would here and now give the Tribune readers the complete details. . .Mr.-Levand threatens to do this for me. If he will do it with accuracy I am In this there is one thing I: desire to sub- mit fo the public and that i the dearabity of heving vadhty to oi as eile nad enae the com- munity to prey its public and private citizens, its business and interests, by blackmailing threats of exposure of <a or imaginary sins or indiscretions. The constant threat of a man of this particular low moral viewpoint, to parade the skclotess closets of the community to public view for his own financial aggran- dizement, political or business advantage, produces a situation which no guilty or innocent person can uphold, much less support. We have no personal fear of Mr. Levand’s lov:fing tactics. We decline to. even ler Proposals that come from him y any subject, public or private. He is at liberty to Pe ha his own a ier and discretion until public opinion rises against him. If the business men of this community, including individuals concerned in corporations, corporations themselves, public men, men’holding responsible Late vate positions and all other successful activities wil stand for this man Levand’s piratical demands "ir tribute, thew may do as they please. So far as I am concerned I will not submit. J. E. HANWAY.
