CONCERNING Homon

We Lad almost lost sight of Com
mon Sense Indictmenp Holman, as
an aspirant for the federal judgeshit
ofthe Eastern district, but what are
we here lor?" Flanagan says IIo-
mans prospects are excellent. Ho-
man and Flanagan are both in Wash
ington, and the latter is booming the
former. Ofthe Republicans who want
this office, Homan is IS little open to
objection rs any of the lot, aud much
less so than some of them. He is a
