Peckham, the notorious corporation attor.
ney, who was appointed Justice of the Uni
ted States Supreme Court, and some fellow
here, with a dead beat reputation, felt war
ranted by that record to open negotiations
for kyles vote against the tariff bill. No
proposition was submitted, but he fellow
talked with Kyles private secretary some
time in March about the Senator's position
on the bill. No consequence was given to
the incident until the sugar trust scandal
started. 1t got it importance and signiti-
canoe from that. The identification and as
sociation Of the two was for the purpose of
belittling the sugar trust charges, and divert
ing attention from thorough and honest
investigation of the most sudacious iobbery.
Senator Hunton, of Virginia, was also ap-
preached some time in April, but it never
occurred to him that it was an attempt to
bride him until the expose of the sugar trust
scheme was made. Since his retirement

very valuable lesson, by noting the
very strange and inconsistent things
that politicians are capable of doing
when it is necessary to fool the peo-
pie to save the machine.
In the first place Gas it has already
been announced in The CAUCASIAN
in the fight for Governor between
Congressman Oates and Capt. John

yer and goldbug Democrats was
squarely drawn. The goldbugs con

the elimination of the income tax provision
