allegation OF some time ago that Hon.
Fuller c. Smith, member OF the state

at once publicly denied the charge,
showing that the time included in the

The witness In court is sworn to tell

about the state, making savage attacks
on the state auditor, and specifying, As
his trump charge, that Auditor Graham
had not, up TO a few days ago, made
a scratch on the auditors books to
show the expense OF the state institu-
lions for the past year" Now that is
strictly tue. Mr.. Clement is right.
But in making this statement and stop
ping there he has misled his hearers in
a way that one cannot believe to be
without purpose. Mr.. Clement knows
the rest Of the story, but be doesn't tell
it. If he did, it wouldn't serve his
case. The thing he doesn't tell is this:

V. A. Bullard, fusion candidate for

the way, how does this man Bullard, a
lawyer of no special repute in his pro-
