that he has entered into the picnic ham
business, and is prepared to furnish that
brand of hams for IL cents per pound for
small lots and 10 cents per pound for
large lots. We do not remember that he
specified in his editorial charging the
County Commissioners with graft that he
was discussing the price of picnic hams,
or that he alluded to the fact that he was
engaged in the picnic ham business. We
are sure, however, that he is very closely
allied politically with the defendants of
ham, and no doubt expects to reap rich
harvest in the future from the partnership,
but we are inclined to believe that as a
dealer in picnic hams he will prove con
spicuous failure. His proposition shows
a plentiful lack of wit, and is cheap at
tempt to extricate himself from an en-
barrassing position.
