have a president, TO hold Office for term
of fifteen years. Why did the people of
Mr.. Smiths district elect lunatic 10 Con-
gress ? Perhaps the above is an after

OF such bill would be a very good way
for Mr.. Smith to give his fellOw-members
his exact mental calibre. al an early day in
his Congressional life.

New York they used to employ the Rev.
