Now we beg the patience of every honest reader
while strip the hyPocrtical and canting DISCUS
from this conglomeration of knavish hypocrisy; a
eowardly and sneaking it is base; not even havin

second, about there being Democrats enough in Il
State to support it without trenching upon other
This Is all CANNON and soft sa,cder and no fns
knows it to be so better than A. F. Morrison I
