JUDGE THARP AGAIN.
In reply to ,Incite Tharp’s ar-1
tide published in today’s paper it
is only necessary for The Journal
to say that the facts in regard to
the Arnold case, which seems to i
have brought this acute attack of
bellyache upon the judge, have
been freely and fully published in
this paper, and were publish
ed at the first opportunity. What
more could any fair minded man
ask'{
As to making any “hienous at- j
tack’’ upon him, Judge Tharp]
knows and the public knows that
we have never done anything of
the kind. Never, until last week,
has The Journal said an unkind
word of Squire Tharp, and then
lie was the aggressor. It is true
that in the account of the Arnold j
case published some time ago, we!
unintentionally placed him in aj
false light, but at the first oppor- j
tunity we published a statement i
giving the facts in the case. This i
should and would have satisfied]
any fair minded man. I
• But having contracted a case of
the political itch, the astute judge
no doubt thought it would give
him some desirable notoriety and
raise the public’s estimation of
himself if he should wade into the
Tfttle ‘2x4 editor and do him up
brown. But having gotten the
worst of it, he now plays the baby
act and would mislead the public
by trying to leave the impression
that we have made some “hienous
attack” upon him.
The Journal emphatically denies | *
ever saying anything about ’{Squire i
Tharp signing or not signing a
petition at the mass meeting held
on the 28th of January, or any £
other time. The Journal did say, i
Siowever, in regard to a certain s
petition circulated at that meeting 1
that practically everybody, except 1
some of the town and township t
officers, signed it. We did not say 1
■’.Squire Tharp did not sign it; and
■we are Sure there were other offi
cials present besides ’8 q u i V e
Tharp. If this statement “stabb- e
ed” the judge, as he says it did, i
we have no apologies to otfer— ‘
the judge should not place himself ‘
in such an akward position that
the truth will “stab” him that (
way.
And, by the way, did you notice ■
the judge's profound silince in re
gard to where he kept his office?
In conclusion we want to assure .
the public that we have nothing
whatever against 'Squire Tharp.
He has alway been a friend to The
Journal and The Journal is a friend

to ’Squire Tharp. But his sug
gestion that we “load our big gun
and get in training’’ is useless:
our “big gun’'is always loaded and
any time the judge desires to set
himself up as a target he will find
that she knocks the black out
nearly every pop—at least, every
body knows the old saying about
the hit dog that howls; and if
’Squire Tharp has not been hit,
what’s he howling for*
