was appointed chairman of committee
TO make Il report TO a second meeting.
Later the committee made report,
recommending that q committee OF
fifteen be appointed TO form a league
for the dissemination of Republican
doctrine, and-as the public viewed
ito fight the 'machine.' Mr..
Love. being one Of the leaders Of the
movement, at once set about to wreak
vengeance on the machine. - Being
a student of the Bible, Mr.. Love soon
called TO mind the matter of heaping
Goals of fire on the head of an enemy,
for the, purpose of thoroughly and ever
lastingly squelching him, and he at
once began 10 get busy. Mr.. Love S
first wallop at the Smoot machine was
to get up in the church Republican
convention and nominate Joseph
Howell for Congress. OF course Mr..
Love knew that Howell was the ma
chine candidate for the nomination,
and, being against tho machine, of
course, il was naturally expected that
he would oppose the nomination of
Howell. That is exactly what an
ordinary man would have done, but Mr..
Love, being an extraordinary indi
vidual, concluded TO fight Smoot with
his own weapons, and accordingly was
first upon his feet in support of the
machine candidate. His action, Of
course. caused CONSERVATION in the
ranks of the machine men, and Mr..
Love was satisfied with the vengeance
he had wreaked The same is true Of
the candidates for the Supreme court
nomination. Mr.. Love knew that
Judge Frick was the machine candi
date for that honor, and, again, in
order TO sorely smite the Smoot ma
chine, Mr.. Love cast his vote for Frick,
thus assisting in the defeat Of Judge
Morse The vengeance of ME Love,
however, has not been entirely satisfied
It is now his intention, il is under
stood, to assist his associates In the
formation of the so-caled anti-machine
league, and then go into the county
convention and vote for every other
Smoot candidate that is put forward
1t is difficult for those who are init
mately acquainted with Mr., Love to
realize that he would allow his hatred
of machine politics 10 carry him to
such ends, but the facts speak for them
selves.
Next to the make believe candidacy

gressional nomination on the church
Republican ticket, just about the

said, declines TO serve upon the COM
