be looking in one direction while working
in another, but happily, at the eleventh
hour, they fell in with the tide and all, for
once, walked in harmony We have
known something of the politics of Rut-
land for a quarter of a century, and we are
somewhat informed of its history prior
thereto, ana we can say in truth that there
never has been, save on one occasion such
complete harmony, unanimity..an cnthus-
iasm as there is in Rutland to-day for
Charles II. Joyce. There is not a particle
of policy about it, it is something as far
removed from that as truth is from error.
How can it be otherwise, when, with the
possible exception of enc man, men of
every class and condition, of every trade
calling and profession, of every shade of
opinion are as one man for Charles H.
Joyce.
Such is the greeting that Colonel Joyce
home sends to the rest of the district. \
