That embarrassing little incident at
Laurel was due to the sweet and inno-
cent "credulity" Of Senator Higgins.
This is an explanation made by the
largest and most recent editorial invest
ment Of the shrewd and far-seeing
speculator.
Some persons say that Hollis, being
inspired from personal contact, sug
gested the sperry purchase. Some say
that Bach pleaded for his exile. Some
say that the Persian minister's far-away
look, and his general and comprehensive
ignorance Of local affairs. induced Sena-
tor Higgins to recommend a change Of
scene and air. Others, mean people Of
course, incline TO the belief that Sperry

lately become popular in certain circles.

if put under oath, each could swear that
he had not, Gross my heart said a

But, however, that may be. the senator
closed the bargain at once and is now re-
ceiving dividends. Whether the pur-
chase was wise one OF not, there are
conflicting opinions. Since it did not
cost the senator much trouble, he
is not particular about receiving large
dividends Really, he doesn't care
whether the investment realizes any
thing or not since he made It chiefly TO
please his friends, including Bach, and
to tickle Sperry But, Of course, when
breaks like that Of the credulity apology

Ir is strange that the EVENING JOUR
NAL which published those contradictory
interviews with Senator Higgins, one or
other Of which was bald, bold lie, has not
been brought to justice Either Senator
Higgins said those things or he did not.
Either he saw Wootten and wrote that
Parsons letter, saying destroy this"
or he did not. We quoted him both
ways. How shall the contradictions be
reconciled We must attend Thompson's
funeral and get our lunch hence we
cannot spare the time to adjust them
with truth Then there is Major
Wootten; has he sworn TO several lies
accompanied by many intricate details
Mr. Ward likewise. These conspiracies
are seriously affecting the moral stand
ing Of Higgins and Willis. OF course
the Smiths don't count They, like the
Persian minister, have accepted Office
and must render service TO pay for it. But
the principals ought to have Wootten
and Ward arrested and tried for slander
and perjury The stories they have told
against these pure. chaste, holy
men cannot be true Still, If no
active measures are taken 20 contra
dict and stop them. the people will by and
by begin TO believe them. More than
that. the EVENING JOURNAL. which has a
long memory and an inconyenient sort Of
fearless brightness, will not allow the
regulations OF any Of the parties or Of
their apologists TO grow dim. II occurs
TO us that something ought to be done.
When a silly old newspaper hack, who is
generally harmless bnt not always re-
sponsible, ventured 70 make untruthful
statements against Mr. Dickey he was
jerked into court. Do not Senator Hig-
gins and Reverend Willis care enough
for their regulations TO bring suits
They could drop the suits Immediately
after the election, as "Bloeks-of Five
