that he would like to assist
him and support him actively,
but that he deemed it improper
for a United States Senator to
take part in any contest for a
nomination in the State. Yet
today he is working tooth and
nail for Mr.. Craig, and, it is
said, keeps his private secretary
in the State to help round up.
Have the rules of propriety or
the Senator changed? Has the
difference between the Senator
and Mr.. Kitchin on the subsidy
question any connection with
the change?'
