ing generalities rather than precise facts,

we could put TO the test of proof. Wheth-
er its conclusions were Just or unjust is

question is about the animus OF the inves-
LEGATION and its methods. We have no
hesitation in saying that both these APP

rid of Commissioner Smith and Chief
Clerk Galpin for an unworthy purpose and
