DO THEY NOT LOOK ' I , . . MORE LIKE THE ARGUMENT THE DEVIL USES TO CONTROVERT TRUTH, THAN ARGUMENTS OF HONORABLE MEN? H I! THE REPUBLICANS, ON THE OTHER HAND, HAVE BEEN SPECIFIC AND To THE POINT. IT IS TRUE THEY HAVE BEEN SEVERE, BECAUSE H I! TOE TRUTH IS ALWAYS SEVERE. THEY HAVE PRESENTED FACTS AND M&tillCi, WHICH THE DEMOCRATS HAVE ANSWERED IN SLANDERING 'H m GENERALITIES, FOR THE LACK OF SOMETHING BETTER. ANYBODY AN CALL NAMES, BUT IN THIS CAMPAIGN THE DEMOCRATS CANNOT. CON- H I TROVERT' THE FIGURES. .
