have been in favor Of Dupuy and his
demand for the discharge of Wheeler
Brand. And the lawyer, like McHenry,
knew nothing OF the new owner that

McHenry s weakness. The lawyer lob

man who dared not stand for the

he know 1.-The power Of the press
throughout all America, for he had
learned at bitter cost that it was the
foe of all the Ed Dupuys andsall those
that employed them to serve their
ends
