! oi inc uiSthruly outrage in the United States
Treasury by the sycophante OF Assistant Score
tary Conant. There was no such language used
by me- neither WIS there any such demonstra-
tons ~ imputed TO me. A bird or n lamb would
resist a Shiny viper when cornered. NV resist
ance was in accordance with the purest and
| most refined wCmanhood. and the statements to
| tho contrary in the Police Court to-day only
snow to how great extent the poor services Of
Mr.. Conant will 20 TO keep in favor with one
who il wcil-known ruler of several previous
| Secretaries. and runners Of their regulations
Poor Mr. Morrill, could not SEQ through his
wilcs. and the present Secretary did not know
OF the Infamous usurpation Of power regarding
my rights rs cti2en of the United States.
until informed of the same the evening of the
| Outrage. and after its occurrence.
| Nv patience and forbearance during the long
! period of Treasury outragcs. have called forth
| advice from largo circle of friends from both
political parties. Z" to take my wrongs to u court
Of justice to be rightcd.' but my own Judgment
has been sustained by the ablest counsel 4" that
there was such Il Ring under ASS istant Sccre-
tary Conant that would swear falsely regarding
small matters and motives that they in their
narrow lives would be guilty Of themselves
and thus attribute to another, that would be
more Disguised and feel myself more outraged
by attempting 10 have my wrongs rghted dur
