To this end the senator undertook to
show that the support of Browne and his
thirty democratic followers had been pro-
cured through Speaker Shurtleff, the room
mate and warm friend of Lorimer and that

Browne did for him. and whatever Browne
did and whatever difficulties Browne en-
countered in his canvass for support among
his followers for Mr.. Lorlmer must have
been made known to him at these confer
