per article Of the year, one in

followed the fortunes of the dead
Senator through good and evil
times, except on two occasions
when his judgment regarding
MS duty to his party led HIM to
oppose his chief.
In his tale of great events Mr..
Leach has reserved nothing. He
has written his story from the
viewpoint of an intimate friend

behind the scenes the manipuIa-
