Wayne News refers to the “abject Mr. Kern,” and declares' that when Mr. Kern, “in the hope of placating men he formerly denounced proceeds from anathema to eulogy, he inspires only the contempt of his fellow citizens.” Some of Mr. Kern’s friends may say these are hard words. But thoughtful citizens will admit they are true. “Kern’s tribute to Shively at Freneh Lick, considered in relation to his charges concerning the manner of Shively’s election, brands Kern as a man to whom no form of stultification is too mean, too abject or too servile, if only it holdß out the hope of material reward.” And yet with all his praise for Shively, Kern did not re tract those bribery charges. He merely promised to be “temperate" in his language in the future. Think of “temperate” language in discussing the purchase of votes!
