No one sees any thing in the papers
these days about the craftsmanship Of
Henry G. Davis. The fact is he never
had any. What he did, when he was in
the senate was in a very crude way and
never amounted to any thing any way,
It is recorded OF him that he quit his
job because he felt he was not equal to
to the task, or in other words, he found
himself SO badly outelas-ed that he left
the senate in disgust and to prevent the
general public from finding out any
more about his ignorance.
