with reference to the opposition made to him among
his fellow Democrats, Gays:
"The very appearance of dissensiOn in our ranks
only strepgthers the common enemy, and no one can
do this without bringing upon himself strong suspicious
and doubts of his honesty and when it springs from
personal feelings or motives, il naturally throws one
without the pale Of the party.
"John {. Mather is an old and well-known Demo-

advances they also extended the time for taking
