a great deal of time. Colonel r. T.. Boy
Kin, the prosecuting attorney, is exerting
every effort, and Is bringing out some
very damaging evidence against the ac-

We do not know who Colonel j.
Frank Supplee" is, but he is quoted in
the Baltimore American as making a
very foolish and unjustifiable speech at
recent Grand Army campfire. Among
other things, he is reported 10 have said:
"The debt of gratitude which the nation
owes YOU men is so great that pension

man was right and another wrong.

It has not made any impression upon
Colonel Supplee.
Such raving as is attributed to him
would have been bad enough when the
civil war was at its height. but 1t is
both ridiculous and outrageous after thir-
ty-four years of cooling time. Maryland
ers. especially, should resent his utter

father had one son in the Confederate
army and one in the Federal army Yet

who fought against II was as the dif-
ference between Heaven and He'll

rams had better steer clear of him. III
