the exaspersting manner in which the

little apparent concern for the industrial

the popular feeling that it has outlived
it's usefulness and needs a radical modi-

a practical or representative legislative

pick its way. For using language no
stronger than that Senator PETER was
denounced by the old party press as an
anarchist, and the New York Sun de.
manded his indictment and trial for
