MILLER. An injustice was inadvertently done John F. Miller by The Star yesterday in the story in which it was stated that Mr. Mil ler made no mention in his statement of personal campaign expenses of the sums expended for him by others in hiring halls, employing bands and putting out circulars announcing his public meetings Strictly speaking, the matters were not mentioned in Mr. Miller's statement, but that statement was acconipanted by an explanation that these sums were collected and expend od by the John F. Miller club of which Frank H. Baker is pres ident, and expended by that organization under the direction of James A. Wood, its campaign manager While The Star, in this campaign, is opposing Mr. Mille eandidacy and giving its support to Mayor Moore, It has no desire to do Mr. Miller such an injustice as may have been done by this story It desires to be perfectly fair in its treatment of Mr. Miller, as ft end vors to be fair in its treat ment of every other man in public life. Mr. Miller, it should be said in this connection, has not asked that this wrong impression be corrected. Neither has any of his friends or supporters. The Star makes this correc tion of its own voluntary act, having found that it was in error in the impression conveyed by yesterday's article. eee ee eee eee eee eee eee eee eeee RARE EA EAA HAA AAEAAA EAR EAAE REE i ee ee ee
