small an office for a man of such large
mental parts. You had better keep
your eye on Quigley. ! went in the
post office the other day and caught
him observing the manner in which
the mail was received and distributed.
1t seemed TO worry Enoch Moore some,
but he didn't say anything.
Hugh, do you think that Fred Bach
is sincere in his expressions of friend
ship? All the time that / had my
headquarters at Seventh and Market
streets he never called to see me, nor
did he give any other manifestation OF
regard for me. / have mlstrusted hiIa
50 long that it almost amounts 10
monomania. For months | have never
passed dark alley without involun-
tarily dOdging a brick that never came.
When / saw him on Saturday ! says:
Are you a Weldin or a Haughey
MANI" and he says 81 am a Daniel r..
Stewart man. who are you fOr2' The
revulsion of feeling almost made me
faint dead away Hugh, / wish you
would tell him to empty his pockets
and sleeves and let bygones be by
cones.
what do you think of this BOggs af-

Your commission as United States dis
/ trict attorney has not yet arrived. If
we're YOU I'd get Them to hold 1T
back until after the Boggs trial is over,
/ for its going to be a legal fight in
which nobody but old-stagers have any
business to participate. Let District
Attorney Vandegrift and Francis
skunk Brown fight the thing out, and
then YOU can spring your commission
on Them and get none of the blame il
1 they are licked, for when Gray and
Bird and Rodney and Biggs and
| Cooper and all the other members OF
| the bar buck up against two men,
something will have TO give way, as IL
| did in the Murphy trial. No doubt
the cases will be tried in April. 1t will
| be too not i'm June, and too near the
| election in September; so the thing
will probably go to the jury in April.
| However. I'm glad you're all right on
| the commission.
Tell the boys that If they want amy
| legislation all they have to do is tc
send It down, with a couple more Re
publican senators accompanying it.That
| Dickey city charter bugabOO was all
hoax. What in the world do you sup
pose Dickey went to New Orleans for?
hope he won't spring any Mard
Gras floats or Louisiana dodges on us
next Fall.
| IL was "a good thing for us whe1
Ocheltree and Kent joined the Demo
cratic League of Delaware. Mckinle!
lost two votes. it is true. and Bryan
gained two: but, by means OF thos'
two votes. Haughey split the Demo
cratic vote wide open and gained NOR
than a thousand votes. which woua
| otherwise have gone to Weldin. 1t II
always well to have or active mel
I'm the camp Of the enemy. ! have re
ceived letter from Weldin in whicl

] | Mate vdui Anything to beat Hau
| ghey:" and from Haughey. ! have re
ceived missive in which he says: Il
was glorious victory. Anything .
beat Weldin." Quite IA coincidence
wasn't it?
What we need in my senatorial dis
trlct is harmony, and lots of II, I'm

such torrents as to flood the cellar
and burst all the sewers in the dls
