County might find something better to du thin spreading lies about th?* Kepublican candidate for the Assembly. When e. party begins to Introduce a lying department into Its campaign bureau Its case Is hopeless and It acknowledges defeat. The paefjsg who are run? ning the enanpalgn for J. Arthur I'olhemus, tha Democratic candidate for the Assembly, have re? cently been misrepresenting Otis II. ?Jut 1er, the Re? publican candidate, to the firemen of Rockland County. The spreaders of lies have circulated a report that Mr. Cutler had at the last session of the Legislature engaged in legislation Inimical to the interests of volunteer liremen. Mr. Cutler did nut do this, on the eo.nrai-y, h?? served the firemen on every occasion, and his course was heartily In? dorsed by the president of the State Firemen's Aa rociatlon. Such misrepresentations will only act to the detriment of his opponent. The firemen will stick to M*-? Cutler and irate for him. The interesta of Uoekland County will be best served by sending Mr. Cutler to the Assembly. This I? no reflection upon Mr. I'olhemus. Mr. I'olhemus has many friends, and his only failing Is hi.? weakness In al? lowing the Democratic party to nominate him for the Assembly. Friends of Mr. I'olht-mus should not be swayed by their personal liking for Mr. Pol? hemus and his family to vote for hitn out of friend? ship. It is not J. Arthur Polhemus that the tight is against. It Is against a foul Democratic machine. Republicans ami Democrats ? ho are friends of Mr. i'olhemus will ?how their friendship for him by voting against him.
