Big Bill obtained Kinsley's article and last week, with the mayoralty campaign at its hottest and dirtiest, he produced it for Chicagoans to read in a counterblasting pamphlet on "The Tribune Shadow" (see p. 15). It was entitled: A COLORFUL CAREER. It said: "In his three decades of political activity, he has put his unmistakable stamp upon men and affairs.
