shoes Even men wearing heavy
top boots are not exempt from
the invariable rule. Any old
engineer will tell you the same

these interogations must be
given in the affirmative. The
recent exposure Of the 'lively"
business done in this district
has proven that fact and en-
phasizes the viciousness of the
system Of which. let us hope,
the Judiciary Committees bill
