case on It's merits. but they are beginning
| to lose faith N hrs professions, as there Is
| too much of A Malone flavor In everything
| that has been done hteiy. INC
| ants propose TO put the President 10 test
when the interual-revenue collectors are
| appointed. The ants think that II the
| President fs going N for fitness and iutTi
| Colonel Frazier ought - be- preferable io
! Colonel Pat. McCaull. ard they viii there
| fore pres the Rockhridse man against the
man from Shleol.
