To the Editor: In your issue of October CSrd, under the title "Fnfair and l'n true," you deny that you made Mrs. flrieve pay for publication of the unanswo. -"' .oiestions which the grand jur sl d Judge Thomas I! to answer. You say "we did not j make .Mrs. firteve pay for this en-! J tire report. We merely charged her for the space exceeding il 0 0 words which she, as well as every other political writer, must ho ehare-ed. according to our publish-! o,l vi..Milj.tlnnn " i We remind yon that Mrs, Grieve is not a. "political writer," but only a plain farmer woman, striving to do her duty ns a grand Juror and public servant. On the same page with you unfortunate editorial statement quoted, you publish free ! an article by pert Anderson, called "A Tammany Leader." which con-f tains -4Kfl words. He seems to be' more favored than was Mrs. flrieve. The people have a right to know' the matters contained in the partial! report and If you are running a ' hewspaper (except for hire) you ! should not require a citizen to pay advertising rates to give to the j public information which It wants. Perhaps ynu may now induce Judge Thoimc to answer the questions asked in this partial report. 1 1 1 :tt i : i i oo i:it. m j : t I.KAGIK. a' Kd Note: The Good Government "political writer" is anv contrib- utor who writes on politics or who TrUK f T lsVAJ0rJ, ANV WAV! 32'. lCt " H e . ...
