men in oil countries and in all
ages who have had TO deal
with The masses know better. In our own
country the statesmen who nave been
closest TO the people, who communed with
them, took them into their confidence and
always kept them in view in the advocacy

been amongst the most successful and
safest Of public guides. There is an
instinct in some men that enables
them 10 recognize this shrewdness

people. Daniel oConnell was one
Of these. The best speeches Of his
life were made at mass meetings OF his

the poor, hardworking farmer and farm
laboring class who had faith in the man
who mover deceived them and who could
stand before Kings in the simple dignity
OF his manhood as he stood before them.
