Manley Made a Mistake.
"The speaker could not believe that
Mr.. Manley had spoken as quoted. until
we received confederation of the inter-

We did not question his motives at all.
Probably he was laboring under the
discouragements caused by the adverse
decisions in the Alabama contests,
which we had expected to gain, as the
seats undoubtedly belonged to Us. Per.

number of Mckinley shouters who have
arrived early on the Gene. We know
that no one can regret the inter
