he rose to speak Mr.. Hearst said:
tor the past two days L have been
telling the citizens how proud am of
inc nights we made together against the
coal, gas and ice trusts. / have said

al the ice and gas which l used in my
own home, but to save the cost in your
home, and in all the homes in the city.
Gas Trust Matter.
But I woke up this morning to find
that Mr.. Hughes says that L did not
make the fight against the gas trust
Iut that Edward b. Whitney made that
light. ] am going to tell you about him.
Mr.. Hughes began by saying he himself
won the gas cases. but when we diSproved

don't care for the support Of any man of
