HzeBen Butler is the political enigma
of the age. He now takes the trouble
to write to,a man away up IN Minneso-
ia that he voted IN the Charleston Dem
ocratic Convention in 1860 tifty-seven
times for Jefferson Davis for president,
and he still believes that if Davis had
been elected president war would have
been averted, as the North always got
more consideration on questions OF hu-
man liberty from a Southern statesman
as president before the war than it did
from 4 Naskhern .doughface."
