BOTTOMLEY'S FRAUDS.
GOVERNMENT CRITICISED. (By Cable—Press Association—Copyright.) (Au»trilian and N.Z. Cable Association.) (Received June Ist, 9.5 p.m.) LONDON, June 1. Bottomley received £25,000 as compensation from the proprietors for the determination of his editorship of "John Bull" "Truth" states that Bottomley's sentence rids Parliament, public life and journalism of a disgrace which ought never to iiave been tolerated. This plausible, clever cunning rogue duped all kinds and conditions of people. -acountry often has to use dirty instruments in war-time. Bottomley's services as a professional patriot might have been worth the handsome fees he received for such services, but the Government ought to have had the courage to intervene when they saw him after .the war raking in hundreds of thousands by means of bond clubs on the palpable false pretence that investors would enjoy the security of the State.
