we announced in the beginning

were it in our power, we would
freely award him political pre-.

him to be both "honest and ca.

to select good public servants,
and to instruct them to pursue
a policy calculated to secure a
stable, eguabIe and economical

of public affairs. But these
duties can be discharged with
out such waste of time and
money-without such exhaus-

sources of the people-without
such a confession of weakness
and ignorance as the following
of political mountebanks and
shouting to their beating of

wolves. Let us do Il little So
