“ROTTEN PAMPHLET”
LABOUR WANTS “CLEAN FIGHT” Denying that he had ajfy thing to do with a “rotten” pamphlet issued against the Reform candidate, Mr. W T. Anderton, Labour candidate for Eden, was warm on clean fighting last evening. He said that Labour dissociated itself with any such base propaganda and wanted to fight on political grounds only. This statement without even the name of the printer on it defiled not only the Reform candidate, but led one to believe that it had come from the Labour Party by its quotation from “Hansard.” “It tries to convey that Mr. Potter is not a gentleman, and is most scurrilous and personal,” said Mr. Anderton. “The Labour Party detests such means. It is unmanly and ungainly, and should never have come into the fight.”
