subjected TO more abuse than any
president ever was, and he has de-
served it as little as anyone ever did.
In the most difficult period of our
history he has proved himself equal
to all demands upon him. He has
acted with an eye single to the good

was not the Presidents seeking. but
he met the issue with exalted courage.
In diplomacy he displayed qualities OF
the highest order, and in military al
fairs he was remarkably successful.
He eminently deserves reelection.

did arrange with II that the car might
be entered and the pony cared for. She
then sent man all the way from New

not before Master Gabriel had received
a telegram stating that the pony was
well and being fed regularly. that he
consented TO leave his room and re-
