we all wear the same clothes, even

guage and have the same ideas and as

one going around the country is the ex-
actly similar attitude the people all occu-
by toward the questions that affect them
in the same way-nOt towards the same
question, but toward those issues to-

"In the Indignation of gentlemen of

President spoke with great mock gravity

way; affected not only by pecuniary and
mercantile considerations, but also by
higher sentiments and by looking at the
country at large and her interests in the
same way
