,ere directly blamed with the failure

were directly blamed with the failure
directly blamed. The story is that the
Democrats voted against the bill ard
therefore it was lost and Governor
Burke is charged with allowing the
Democratic members to do as they
did The record shows the following
additional facts which Mr.. Devine
never mentions and which Mr. Hager
never peeps about when he sends out
his dope" from headquarters.
l. The anti-pass bill never came up
for passage in the senate.
2. The senate consisted Of Al mem
bers of which s were Democrats, 38
were Republicans and one was indie
pendent.
And the committee on railroads to
which the anti-pass bill was referred
was made up of II members of which
IL were Republicans. four Democrats
and one Independent. Further they
conceal the evidence of the records
to prove that when a final effort was
made to take the anti-pass bill out of
the Republican committee, the Repub-
lican leader, Mr.. LaMoure, interposed
an objection and blocked the move.
Further yet, in discussing the anti.
pass legis Station, Mr. Devine and Col.
Hager, S. p. b. II. H., pussy-foot 1t
on the matter of C. A. Johnson's rec
ord. House Journal $500 Page 1914
shows that Mr.. Johnson voted against
the anti-pass bill in 1907.
On these matters l plead guilty to
writing a few paragraphs.
Does Colonel Grant Hager, S. p. B.
r., imagine for a moment that because
he talks louder and writes faster than
I, that he can by simple expenditure
of lung power and liberal daub of
printers ink explain these matters?
Does COL Hager suppose that by call
ing Byrne a blank blankety blank
liar, he can settle these little incon-
sistencies to the satisfaction of the
intelligent public? If that is his idea
predict he will be brought to rude
awakening on November s.

sugar were to be made up into long

a plaster of balsam Of Peru, gum mas
