you of course will welcome frank, honest criticism. After reading and rereading your said article, I am, against my desire, forced to the following conclusions:

  1. You are either one of the "System" or are hired by it.
  1. This article of yours was prepared for the purposes of making two points: (a) Working on the sentiment and passions of the weak, and the women; and (b) diverting public attention and opinion from the real facts at issue, by attacking Mr. Lawson's personal character, which is not up for discussion.
  1. Your article is full of high-sounding declarations, and void of either logic or common sense.
  1. In your endeavor to express the wishes of the prejudiced and biassed, you are undoubtedly dishonest with yourself without deceiving the public.
  1. Your article lacks the ring that carries conviction, either as to your sincerity or the truthfulness of the statements you make.
  1. The article indicates that you are vainly trying to ape Mr. Lawson's style.

Yours respectfully,

E.
