This is another of Senator McMlllan's well
meant though repreheusible efforts to make
the republican party a sort of political poor
house, in which all manner of old fossils may

party that he really believes that it owes him q
living, and his pertinacity is only exceeded by
his general uselessness, political or otherwise
