deeds than any other man ever sent
by them to Washington. He not only
has the will, but the energy and the
ability to perform good service, and
his efforts for his people are unceas-

with all classes than at any time in
his career. He has won over many
of his former foes, the conservatives,
who see now they did him great in
justice when they branded him as a
