representation am borne out by facts. "Ami y
says the Commissioners were selected from the
Know Nothing organization; corrected him,
and told your readers that they were appointed by
the City Council
When a witness is called upon to testify, he is
required to tell tho truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth. Why viii Ami dodge the
question, and tell only part Of tho truth He
says the Opposition expecting nothing y made no

ceeded in getting majority in the First Ward for
their nominee, Joseph c. Moore, where some Of
that deestd6ie fraternity acted az commissioner?
They not only got majority, but took possession
of the polls, and, by their rude and uncvil conduct
prevented numbers from voting Their conduct
sas 40 bad that the police we're sent for to clear
the polls Of all who dared TO interfere with the free
and legal voters
Another thing Ami" complains and whines
about IL, that some OF the commissioners were
candidates for Office He knows that the wards
made their nominations long after the commission

be known. He harps considerably upon the conf
