ENTERS DENIAL
Editor Journal.—I see Judge A.
J. Craig has classed me as a Re
publican. Now, don’t you think
it the height of monumental in- j
consistency for a man like Judge
Craig, who has been in every po
litical party under the sun except
the Socialists, to raise objections
alxmt another man’s politics?
I was born in Donaphan county,
Kansas, in 1855; have lived in
Missouri and Mississippi, and came
to Arkansas and settled in this
county in 1888. Have voted the
Democratic ticket all my life and
was never called a Republican un
til now. J. C. Lewis.
