politics that the leaders who fought call

then opposed ratification of the new Con-

after it has gone into effect. There is
neither patriotism nor sense in this
course. Those who are pursuing it have

a large portion of the Democracy of the

to the new Constitution is nothing else

Paratus, inserted above the traehea, is
of vulcanized rubber, having a rubber

According 10 cable dispatches, Great
