Senator Isham G.. Harris visited his
home, at Memphis, last week, and was
interviewed by an Avalanche reporter
in regard to the Investigation of the
Presidential fraud, DC. Daring the
interview the reporter asked the Srna-
tor what he thought about Mr.. KEYS
letter To the people OF the South. The
Senator smiled u pitilul sort Of II smil
aud SAID:
Key had killed himself before, and
| think this was II graceless act to mu-
lllale his corpse. Key knew when he
wrote that letter that there was 10 Con
gress 40 sentiment OF any strength
looking to any re-openlng of the
Presidential title, though he is not
without u certain old-fashioned sort OF
integrity. This is my impression about
Key, that when an offer of u Cabinet
position came upon him all like u
thunderbolt, he argued about the mat
ter in this way: III | take the position
| kill myself with the Democratic party,
for the honors it has % give it will
give to men who have no: deserted it.
The Republicans. on the other hand,
will not wish to give what they have
to bestow to Il late Democrat Mr.
Key thought of these things and then
cauie to the conclusion that a Cabinet
position was better than he was likely
10 get from any party anyhow, 81 be
accepted it. Or course it was mis- po-
itical death unless the vagaries OF the
Avalanche-which are as absurd and
is wild rs any, dream Key can now
lave-should be realized. Now. tor

Vrite II letter asking the South not to
