TRICKY politicians are found
out sooner or later. The PUBLIC
Press believes they should be.
Any man, whether he fills a
judicial, administrative, or legis-
lative Office, or who may wait
any such Office, who will pur-
posely deceive those who have
been his friens, simply to gain a
a temporary political advantage
should be shown up in a glazing
light and given a trial run for
his money when he next asks
for office. The fellows who
occupy the highest places make
the plainest and best marks.

said, ''what you wanted was to leave

Hugh, 81 We got right to do that,

ship S sail is whipped from its gaskets
in a white squall. Before the words
could be uttered, his fingers were at
Hugh s throat.
At that instant there was the sound
of running feet outside, hurried knock
at the door and an agitated voice that
chilled Harry's blood to ice.
His hands relaxed their hold; he
dragged Hugh TO the door of the inner
room, thrust him inside, shut and bolted
It upon him.
Then he went and opened the door
