GEORGETOWN March 5.-The bomb
that some excited Republicans claim to
have exploded in the session of the levy
court here yesterday bids fair to prove
boomerang. At the utmost it can but
turn out to be o defalcation to the OK
tent of few hundred dollars by Rufus
e. Wheatley, who was deputy under
Clerk of the Peace Ebe Tunnell, and
even this is doubtful. According to the
most extravaganza claims now made, the
bogus road orders issued by whestley only
mounted to $425 and investigation is
more likely to reduce than increase this
amount, There is no charge Of fraud in
the issuance of road orders, only OF ex-
trayagance. On this point Democrats
claim that the road orders issued by the
Republican levy court last year were in
excess of those Issued in any one year by
the Democratic court. CLERK of the
Peace Tunnel demanded thorough in.
vestigstion at this mornings session Of
the court and had resolu-
ton ofersd for committee to
proceed ut cnne with power to employ On
attorney and an expert if necessary. The
Republicans laid this over for an hour
and theu substituted il with one pre-
pared by Frank Bacon providing for
committee to make u general investiga-
tion with no provision as to when the in.
vestigstion shall be made or finished.
This resolution WAS adopted.
The evident intention of the Republi-
can managers now is to spread the affair
as far into the compaign as possible. Mr..
Tunnel, however, will insist upon q
prompt and thorough Investigation. They
claim that Wheatley committed suicide
is also open to doubt, although II looks
very much as though he took his own
life. DR.. O. 4. Layton, who is charged
with having advanced the suicide theory,
told me this morning that he could not
at present make any deduction. Death
was undoubtedly due to a narcotic and
he and DR.. Robinson, who was also called
in, agreed in the opinion that death was
caused by mixture of morphia and
choral.
DR.. Layton said he could not give a
certificate OF death under the circum-
stances so that Gn inquest will have to be
held. DR.. Layton also denied emphatic-
ally the statement telsgraphed from here
that Whsatley had intimated to him that
others were implicated in his frauds.
They had not aeen Whestley for several
months prior TO yesterday. Wheatley
left Clerk Tunnels office in July last and
went 10 Philadelphia. II he is guilty
there seems to DO no probability that
any one else is concerned with him in
the frauds. There is great indignation
here at the attempt to cast reflection upon
the integrity of Mr.. Tunnel, aud he and
his friends will resist this By demanding
the speediest aud fullest investigation.
As political weapon the affair has
already collapsed, and many Republicans
are sorry that the alleged exposure waa
put forth in such sensational manner,
now that it has dwindled to such ordi-
nary proportions.

The deputy United States marshal who
made the arrest bought drink of whisky
and paid Mo9innss for 1t, and then
asked to see his license. Neither the

Purify Your Blood

sslo far exceeding that of any other sarsapa-
rilla or blood purifier.
But the explanation is simple enough.
When the tide of popularity began to set in
in favor of Hoods Sarsnparilla a few years
ago, competitors were frantic in their en-
deavors to stay it, but their efforts came to
naught because they utterly failed to offer a
remedy which could stand a moments COM
parison Of Hoods sarsaparilla in the clear
sunlight Of honest investigation and the keen
judgment of the people. The superlative
slnartness to which the success Of Hoods Sar-
saparilla is credited really rests solely in TIT
fact that the medicine is Of superior merit
the production Of thoroughly trained pharma-
cists-who have used in Its preparation pc
oulinr combination, proportion and prccess,by
which the tull medicinal value Of each ingre-
dtent used is secured. Every claim, too, re-
Earding this medicine, is honestly made, every
testimonial is genuine and the entire business
of Hoods Sarsaparilla is conducted with firm
adherence 10 the truthful saying that" Honesty
Is the best policy.
