OF The Intelligencer should he called

caucus did not come. first. from the
editor OF The Intelligencer or from
The 1ntelligencer itself. They were

OF the House OF Delegates. and those
Democrats. who knew whereof they
spoke. offered TO produce the evidence
and demanded an investigation. In.
stead OF having an investigation. the
Democratic leaders in the legislature
exerted all their influence TO prevent
any publication or revelation of the
facts in the case.
