"The only wonder is that anyone will read it.' ""What's the matter now?' asked the foreman.

CITIZENS' PARTY TO HAVE ITS PRIM

ARIES

Precints primaries of the Citizens" party, a fusion of the Republicans, null

Moosers and anti-Tom Knotts' Democrats, will convene in their respective

precincts to-night to name ' delegates

for to-morrow's convention at the Orpheum, when a full city ticket will ha named. Only the Republicans and Moosers will participate In to-night's primaries, the independent Democracy having alredv named delegates.

The city convention at the Orpheum

wll convene at 9 a. m., when a mayor,

clerk, treasurer, judge and councilmen-at-large will be named.

This is the way the official call

states that the Republican and Progressive delegation will be chosen.

"The Republican and Progressive pre-

cint committeemen of each of the several precincts, together with a third man whom they must choose, shall nominate as delegates at least twice the number of Republicans and twice the number of Progressive as r.he num-

and brainest men who ever lived, men who would scorn to attack Gentiles as Mr. Roberts has attacked the Jewish people. Present generations are not to be blamed for the mistakes of th.ir u

cestohs and it is very unjust and en

tirely uncalled for to criticise the Jewish people of to-day for what happened

i:inunti ago, ana no thinking man will do so. Mr. Roherts ha

VXJVST CRITICIB.M. East Chicago, July I. Eldltor Times: The letter published In your columns signed by John Roberts, of Bast Chicago, in which he criticises the Jewish people shows a narrowness of Christian spirit that he ought to feel ashamed of. The letter contains a number of statements that are not at all true, and he can find no historical substantiation of them whatever. The Jewish race for charity, for benevolence, for honesty, will stand comparison with any nation in the wide world, and It would not be very hard to demonstrate the fact either. From ages past, down to the present, the Jewish race has presented some of the greatest
