But these clerks. who, whatever they
might have suspected, had no authority

formation, manipulate papers, cook ac-

that all the avenues of corruption lead to
the White House. Every Ring exposure
has pointed directly AT some person in the
Presidents circle. But what Is most re-
markahle Of all. is that the Investigations
which might have disclosed the truth on
falschood " the public suspicious, uni
formly halted when they approached the
door of the Executive Mansion. The
Black Friday inquiry stopped short after
it was positively known that s2j,OO0 Of
that infamous speculation had crossed the
threshold 90 the White House. Why il
stopl ed, il left to con- lecture.
Last year II was proved before the Joint
Committee investigation that Measurcr
BAncocK had signed vouchers for over
three and u half millions of dollars FOR the
Washington Ring, most Of which were
fraudulent and some of them forged and
yet he was not even summoned rs wit
ness TO explain acts which render HIM
liable TO Indictment and term In the
pcuitenuary. Why was this tenderness
exhibited by both sides of that committee?
similar spirit seems to be manifested
in regard 10 the Whisky Ring, the head
quarters Of which was at Washington and
believed to be in the White House. 1t will
not satisfy the public TO make scapcgoats
of MCDoNAID, JOYCE, AVERY, and their
associates in the West, to raise u great
outcty over vigilance and energy in their
prosecution, aud under cover Of that
camor TO allow the greater criminals to
escape.
