parole. thought that BARLEY and his
family had suffered sufficiently, particu-
larly when the politicians who became re-
snnnsihla for his shortage by borrowing
money from him had not been punished at
all II this act OF mine has any bearing
on the senatorial contest. am glad for
every democrat to be reminded Of It before
the primaries. This story. like several 9TH

Burketts headquarters. II Is important,
will let the senator explain to his repub-
llcan friends why his vote was cast with
the BARLEY forces in the republican con-
vention of 1901 on the resolution ordering
Bartley's return TO prison. l will also let
the senator explain to men generally why
he is interesting himself 30 deeply in the
effort TO bring about my defeat in the dem
