Liljeqvist: In last Saturday evening's papers you saw J'it to attack me in one of the most dastardly and cowardly man ners possible. And, although I believe and know that my character as a citizen of this community is as hon orable and upright as yours is in your community, Mr. Lil.jc(vist, and needs no defense from any cowardly, dirty attack that you might make upon me, human nature can not stand by and refrain from an answer. You insinuate, Mr. Ijiljeqvist, that I. acted as a go-between. This Is a True Statement of What You Distort and Garble Mr. Liljeqvist. I am not live up to liljeqvist.

This, then, is the great wrong that 1 have done, to hear you tell it. This little matter of accommodation, you would stretch and twist into a character assassin attack on me, merely because I have seen fit to support a candidate for office that you are opposing. You insinuate also, Mr. Liljeqvist, that I had done this two or three times, which is a damnable lie. Mr. L. A.
