ALMOST anybody with an inclina- tion to be mean enough and dirty! enough can spit tobacco juice on hisj neighbors front door step. We are pleased to think that very few be- long to the dirty class who would do such things but we regret to know that some still live who can sink to such a low level. \Ve had an oc- cular demonstration of this only last week, when we saw evidence of low life in this very matter of spitting on a front porch. and we learn that the occurrance is a fre- quent thing.
