It may bo Interesting to tho readers
of this correspondence to know that tho

own Interest. I believed It was t
their Interest and to the Interest of
ovory democrat In tho country to have
a correct pen picture of Judge Alton
nrooks Parkor my candidate and
their candldato for President of the
United States. I have been writing
and you have been reading these let-
