Last week the Teller reporter, pencil
in hand and copy of the Herald in
his pocket, slidinto my office agood deal
like the Crusaders who infested Lam
caster four years ago, slid off the plat
form amongst the audience when they
spied sinner who ought to be saved.
[ knew his object and waited for his
opening. We entered into general
conversation and finally came to the
late caucuses. He severely criticised
Mr.. Thomas Mcdonald for suddenly
changing front and openly working
for Babcock and then Burne disclosed
to me that he knew that Mcdonald
would not have changed front if there
had not been something in it for him.
I scoffed at the idea that such was the

said: "Let me make forecast, that
Mcdonald will be postmaster and that
the postofice will be moved to the
Mcdonald block" This I could not
believe, but he replied that James
Webb had not been as active in the
Babcock campaign as it was expected
he should have been and therefore
was doomed. | told him that it was
about what his father had done when
Mr.. Bushnell ran for Congress; that
then he opposed Mr.. LaFollette as
strongly as he did Mr.. Babcock, but

Burne thought that was different.
All this time he thought he was inter
viewing me. He finally pulled out the
copy Of the Herald and questioned
me in regard to the article. He gave
me but little chance to answer his
questions, as he seemed to have them
prepared in his mind. He tried hard
to make me say that was sorry that L
had caused the article to be published
and that II went to the Herald office
to recall the manuscript and that |
should have told Mr.. johnson not to
publish anything against his father"
This he put to me in many ways, but
as it was not fact, could not admit
it. What he wanted me to say was the
last thing I would have done. His
statements need considerable re-
vison to make them conform to my reel.
