about by MIR. Kelly's attempted dictation. and the

ernor Robinson many votes which he would not
otherwise have had. lie did not believe that Mr..
Kelly could prevent the election of Governor Rob
inson and he thought that the influence OF Tam

his views on the situation, said he had none. Il
did not come into this Office as a politician, and
