was to he written down mn ass He will close
his NOT yerv h;,liant nnlitical career ;hit,har
up upon Doll than any other clown ever ever
climbed before in the American circus.

:sThe investigation by the Potter COM
mittee has just commenced, but it has gone
far enough to bring anew to the cheek of
every honest man the blush of shame that
the fate of the country should have been
held in the balance bv such fraud and cor
ruption as existed in the taking of the last
ballot for President,
(st. Lous Times
When the true inwardness If this Potter
investigation ID arrived 81. & will he found
that there ID . GOOD daa1 more in Il than
some Of the most ardent friends of Mr..
Hayes imagined. Alas that men who are
truly great in their own estimation should
condesccnd to things SO small to secure their
position.

thus formulated is the problem that the pro-
gress of the investigation must solve. It Is
an easier task, perhaps, than Sherman's own
personal share OF that of Stanley Matthews;
but it is herculean at best. III any event it
