Layton-That's a lle never
Moore-Oh. yes, you did. / know the
man you said it to- And not only that,
but your own brOther-in-law. State
Senator George ID. Harrington, says
you were down at his home in Farm
ington that day, and came lup On that
particular train. AS l started to say
such talk as that isn't calculated to
elect Mr.. Addicks.
Layton-Do you mean to say that
] Moore mean to say that you have
made thousands Of dollars by keeping
him out of the Senate. Didn't You tell
that Democrat that II Mr. Addicks was
elected he would quit pouring
out money. and only give about
5000 for campaign purposes. Isl
such talk as that calculated
to help along his election when he's
surrounded by gang Of men who are
just waiting for their turn to bleed him
/ Allee-Your language is insulting.
Moore-What are you kicking about
I'm bet you that if it came to a show
down in this business your pile would
/ be three times as big as any of tnem.
l guess that's the reason you wanted
the Adams tax law repealed because
4 of its inquisitOrial features. You d1dn
want the assessor to know all about
your stock holdings. l repeat that Mr.
Addicks is the victim of a lim-nam
game, and it's a dirty shame to be
playing in this manner on his cTedu-
lty and pocket.

you could get out of the Regulars and
then came over to the Union Republi-
cans to see what you could get out OF
them. They made you deputy coroner
as an act OF charity, and then you
wanted a life job and tried to get it
at Jim Chambers expense. l don't
want a man like you to presume to in
my remarks. Rake down the
stove there. and keep quiet In answer

Moore-That's right. You're entitled

is self-evident fact that Mr.. Addicks
has been buncOed. You fellows know
how much money he has given you to
EJECT him. II was enough to elect him
two or three times If it had been ap-
piled properly. But it never reached
where it was intended to go. The
bulk Of it stuck somewhere.
Giles-Search me; ! hain't got a.
Moore-Will you shut up, Ferris. No
body suspected you. You're not a fac

Moore know that, Frank. You've

bring this matter formally before you.
l offer this resolution:
Whereas, Mr.. j. Edward Addicks
the lamb with the golden fleece. has
stood patiently and permitted his wool
to be sheared for the last six years
and
Whereas. The aforesaid lamb with
the golden fleece has received 1othing
in return but bucketful of promises;
and
Whereas. 1t is me opinion OF this
'Amalgamated Association of Lamb
Shearers that the election of the lamb
with the golden fleece 10 the
United States Senate would be
. inimical to the wool Industry of the
State of Delaware; and
Whereas. Wool is essential to the
welfare and happiness Of the Amalga-

therefore. be it
Resolved, That a committee of three
be appointed to put the lamb with
the golden fleece on the back and in
duce him to stand patiently and permit
+ himself to be sheared two years longer
to the end that trade conditions shall
not De upset by a sudden influx Of lamb
shearers into other channels Of busi-
