Barnum must have turned over in
his grave with horror and disgust
from such a profane burlesque and
abominable perversion of his
memory.
But resigning from IA spirit of
levity. the real purpose of the
meeting was naught but an attempt
to divide the forces of the opposi-

be reformers and politicians for
revenue only, and afford them a
meager chance to get into office.
AS to their personal attacks upon
Judge Holbrook, Sheriff Garcia,

Owing to the failure of the Only

Braiden and Mollette were COM
PEELED to assume the role of the

streets. crying the wonders of their

heroic acts of their acrobats. the

beauty of their moving pictures

of their clowns and divers other
attractions. In the meanwhile they
had outlined their program, select

man to call upon. slated their COM

worked smoothly until the chair
man inadvertently called upon "A
couple of gentlemen of sufficient
intelligence to see through the
game and possessed of the honesty
of purpose which forced them to
condemn the cut-and-dried pro-
ceedings of the ring leaders, and
to ask few burning questions
which we noticed We're never an

with fusion" was their slogan they
were exeiting their every effort to
perfect such an alliance as was
