One OF the biggest franchise bills that
came up during the session was engineer
ed by transplanted New England Yam
kee, who hated to see cent slip through
his own fingers, This made "Gunlshoe'
mad and he fixed price on his support
that threw the YANKEES into the cramps.
They dickered and haggled up to the last
minute before the bill was to come up
for third reading; but Gumshoe wouldn't
bulge an inch or discount his price a
dollar.
AT the last ragged minute before roll

he had put on the payroll. and handed
him long envelope containing $4,000
with the remark: Just hustle into the
House and quietly hand this to Mr.
Smith. 1t contains some papers he wants
to use right away"
The young fellow was as green as
June pasture, SO far as his knowledge Of
inside legislation was concerned. and be-
sides that he didn't have any more than
his share of brains anyway. He slipped
into the House and asked the doorkeep-
er where is Mr.. Smith,"

the doorkeeper. pointing. "Standing with
his hand on his own desk"
The young fellow slipped quietly down
the aisle and laid the envelope on the

tually began "Cumsloe' slipped out Of
tho door and began TO look anxlously
about. In a moment he found what he
was looking for and he and the Yankee
held about two minutes OF mighty ami

who had been sent with the envelope
came up. The Yankee grabbed him by
the arm and asked, In an undertone:
