matter Is Of the greatest Importance. This
creature OF the machine. who has done the most
disreputable service for it, not stopping even at
theft of public documents the machine Is trying to
e.vate to one Of the highest judiciary places in the
State as a reward for his shameful acts. With
his nomination a moral element entered into this
otherwise uninteresting campaign-a question OF the
gravest significance. which conce rms not only the
political understanding of the people, but their con-

.The movement against Maynard Is well under

also have their effect. In the early part OF the
