tors had been the right kind of men-an adjournment
is TO be had over 10 next year. probably to go through
the inefficient routine for another three months

branches they came in pledged to great reforms in
all the departments, but have accomplished nothing
thus far, and likely will not. We think the ghost Of
their violated and dead pledges will haunt the black
republican party next fall"
