when Charles Hunter, then. state Re

ection OF Frank Frantz, aud couldnt
win. Harris doubtless dreamed last
| night that some heartless newspaper
man would spring that sentence today
and he is writhing under the sting,

successful in righteous anse unless
he is PRAYED for by the people n,
+ prayers have been uttered for me
! However, | would take the liberty tt
suggest to you. Mr. President, that al

TO pin any faith to us About all the
| support we have had has been iron
| federal office-holders, and you know
Mr. President that they are concern
ed whether a cause Is righteous oi
bad.
