Dear editor:

I am disgusted with the criticism levied at Sheriff Barlow in the recent articles in your paper in regard to the Edwards case.

If the city officials have nothing to cover up, why have they spent one solid week, thus far, justifying their stand. Sheriff Barlow also has a job to do and is justified in bringing before the public information in regard to this matter.

I personally feel that the city officials should be of such moral and reputable standards that they would not want a city policeman who would not have the courtesy to his public to clear himself of this matter.

After your articles in support of city officials how about giving a supporter of Mr. Barlow a chance. Thank you.
