without particle Of evidence to sustain 1t.

Mr., Mccormick observes that he has "as
little confidence in the moral IS In the pollti-
cal principles Of Joseph Holt and his examtn-

We might add that Joseph Holt showed very
little confidence in Mr. McCormick's t9moral
prl1 ciples" when he examined the statement
OF his profits In the reaper business.
