Sir: Five years ago this evening OF the mose
prominent conservative and intelligent Democrats OF
Brooklyn said to me: Governor I'LL Is not only an
INSCRIPTIONS politician, but a bold bad man, In
reply said: "You had better be careful to what
you say OF David b., the Democratic party may
some day make him their National standard bearer
To-day that conservative and intelligent Democrat Is

but one OF fact the returns the day after always
