death dealing appliances concealed
about our persons he fearlessly en-
tered and chatted freely. No we are
not so partizan as all that. We
never did any great bodily harm to

democratic victory There is moth
ing dangerous about us however.
and Mr.. Macarthur has just as good
a right to cheer when his side comes
out ahead
