THE "STEPPERS ASIDE"

By the way: Sullivan, as soon as
Mr.. Northway was dead, saw in Dick
the illogical candidate" for his place.
He stepped aside for the illogical
candidate" and verify he has his
reward.
Judge Tibbals of Akron also recog-
nized Mr.. Dick as the logical candi-
date" and he too stood to one side,
although he inwardly sort of thought
he had some claim to the place..
Since Dick was admitted on all
hands to be the logical candidate, ,,
the transaction, put in logical form,
would stand thus:
Sullivan thought Dick was the
illogical candidate"
So did Judge Tibbals.
Sullivan cheerfully stepped aside.
So did the Judge.
Sullivan gets fat job.

The Judge said he was too; tina

Now that the party has throw

of which, and for the profit of which,
the government is to abdicate its
functions of finance and go out of the
business by thus furnishing
the capital for private enterprise to
go into the banking business; in
other words, it goes out by forever
keeping in.

operation with the work of the

First build up the Chamber of

IMpUGNING THE METHODS.

IEiT U0NiN0 tHE mCtFUOos
The Leader of Thursday, in it
fulsome praise of Mr.. Sullivan, MARI
Hanna's new District Attorney
says:
HE represented Mr.. Hanna a:
attorney during the life of the con
spiracy which had been formed fol
the purpose of impugning the Senator
method of obtaining his election"
AS Mr.. Wackford Squeers re.
marked when he presented the mug
of watered milk to the bound-out
boy,-"here's richness!"
''Impugning" is especially good
and ought to be copyrighted.
Any man who has read the repori
of the committee which did tn,
''impugning," with an honest desir,
to learn the truth, knows just whai
''the Senator's method" was, ano
that nothing more disreptuable evei
smirched the election Henry of B.
Payne or Calvin S. Brice-disrepu-
table as these were.
We, however, call attention to tht
fact that the services of Mr.. Hanna
attorney in the ''impugning" bust
ness, were limited to instructins
witnesses, who had been sworn t,
tell the whole truth, not to answer
questions.
AS prosecuting officer, charged
with exposing and Furnishing crime
Mr.. Sullivan will, no doubt, prof
by this valuable experience. o
course he will be satisfied when
criminal, ON the advice of his lawyer
refuses TO answer, and will pursu,
the inquiry no further, but will agre,
that the whole thing is nothing bu
conspiracy" gotten up for tn
purpose of ''impugning" Mr.. Bill
Smiths peculiar method" of burg
ling or tapping tills.
Later on this same experience will
perhaps fit him for the duties of hi,
office in enforcing the federal anti
trust laws. Declining to answe
questions is right in the trust line:
and as Senator Hanna says he nevei
has seen a trust, Mr.. Sullivan's mod
of getting the truth out of witnesse
by advising them not to speak ii
may keep Mr.. Hanna from eve
getting sight of a trust, thing
greatly to be wished, as the spectacle
might frighten him.
If some poor devil of striker i:
caught talking with his neighbor OIL
tEC stICcU COlutl, anu Is ldlSG
before the Judge" for it, and his
attorney tells him to keep mute, OF
course Sullivan will agree that
silence is not contempt and all at
tempts to get the truth out of him ere
only so many conspiracies formed
for the purpose of impugning" his
methods" of striking.
Seriously, considering Sullivan's
known connection with Hanna's
election and the ''impugning" of the
method" of it, the appointment is
one of the most grisly sarcasms
upon the administrations of public
Justice.
