"Those fellows out in the State

either recant Or suffer being dis.

The above language is reported
to have been uttered by Hon.
Harry b. Halves of st. Louis
while in Jefferson City on Mon
day Of last week, in an interview
for publication. This piece of
gall and egotism caps the climax,
and is taken US a notice to the
country that political bosses feel
that the people Of the state have
no right TO think, to exercise
their will, or to have q heart or
conscience. but that they are
simply dupcs to be used at the
sweet will of a few ring politi-
clans.
