William Henry Smith, of Chicago is claimed
as the person who gave the information upon
which was based the recent publication that
Commissioner LIE Due was to be removed but

which it will never recover

| whisky by who is not in the habit of be-
| coming intoxicated, docs not constitute such
immortality or unftness as would preclude an
