II has been the struggle Of the Eng

the first this idea Of popular representa-

welt may be the wisest and justest OF
mankind, but there have been or may be
Presidents OF whom that could not be
said. His Secret Service and his various
inspectors and Investigators may be en-
p'oyed for the best OF purposes. That he
or any PRESIDENTIAL or au0ther-shouId
have unlimited SUES az his secret dis
posal irrespective Of the purpose for
which they were appropriated By Con-
gress, IS a proposition that no American
would undertake seriously to defend.
