His Criticisms

i:
V, Issue,
Philadelphia, Oct 2$. Judge Hor
ace Lorimer, editor oi the Saturday
Evening Post, today gave out the
following rejfly to the statement
1 made public Sunday night by Gover
nor Cox relative to a cartoon to ap-
oear in this week s issue oi tne
Post:
' "There could be no better vindi
Cation of the cartoon and comment
that will appear in this week s num
btr of the Saturday Evening Post
so- Clearer demonstration ot oover
nor Cox's unfitness for hiuh office,
than his misleading remarks on the
idvauce copy .of the weekly that has
."ome into bis possessien. .
' ' Scores Confidence Violation.'
. "Governor Cox is a millionaire
newsoaDer editor and publisher o
long experience. He -Bust therefore
understand that it is a first point of
honor among newspaper men not to
make use of advance copies ot pud
lications that are sent out with the
understanding that they will not oe
released until a fixed date in tne iu
ture. He must kaow. as a publisher,
that at the postal rate now being
:harged periodicals and newspapers
no question ot a subsidy by tne gov
prnment is involved: that the periodi
-al are not onlv Tbavine their way
but under any kind of an efficient ad
ministration in the postomce mere
; a hHome orofit in carrying them.
, "Though the editor of the Satur
day Evening Post has had something
to say editorially on other sections
&f the revenue bill, he has accepted
and consistently retrained from at
tacking the raise in postal rates, even
thoueh he believes jt unjust. If
Governor Cox has studied the ad-
vertising columns of the Saturday
Evening Post with the intelligence
and knowledge that a man in his
position should have, he must know
' !ha it has been the policy of that
magazine to refuse casual advertis
ing grow.ng out ot the excess proms
tax and has insisted on well-con
sidered, -well formulated campaigns
behind commodities that can use ad
vertising profitably and economic
illy.
Formulate! Own Policy.
. .."The policy of the Saturday Even
ing Post is now and always has been
formulated by its editor. Neither
any politician or group of politi
cians, nor any interests of any kind
or description, have suggested what
stand it should take in this election
or had anything to do with inf.uenc-
mg rt policy . . t , . given the
same record, and the republican
party Jn power, he would not hesi
tate to take as strong a position
p.gainst a continuance of republican
rule.
"Prooasranda has . come." in the
minds of shallow thinkers like Gov
ernor Cox, to mean any view' that
does not square with theirs. Neither
Governor Cox nor. any tther dem
ocrat found anything savoring of
disloyal proaganda m the Satur
day Evening Post's consistent and
unwavering stand behind the nrrsi
dent during the years of the great
war.

"Brother, don't you know you're in
a prohibition town in a non-tipplinv;

"Now I'll say something," ejacu

and praising the crippled son who
had killed him, the. only requiem. .
"The jury recommends the re
lease of Emilio Nicoletti, as ha
slew his father In defense of the
entire family," laid the foreman.
The dead man was forgotten, as
excited neighbors, mostly shrill
voiced Italian women carrying ba
bies, rushed forward to clasp the
hands of the crippled youth who
haM ridded the community of a
terror of all of them, particularly
his own family.
The mother cf Emilio had bared
her knees to show gnat scars
caused by her husband's beating.

by my hair and beat me and all of
us all the time." She turned a
glance of hatred at the casket
