The secret service is a hard game

that Of special agent for a railroad.
The agent is supposed TO trace those
who steal or destroy railroad property.
When he is notified that trunk or
other article of baggage is missing he
finds out by its number from where II
was sent and follows 1t on the books
to the last station where 1t has been
checked. Then he notifies the police
in the vicinity between the station
where the baggage was last checked
and the station where it should have
been checked. The police get busy.
and probably the property Is soon re-
covered and the thieves put in Jail
The baggage is then turned over to
the special agent, who notifies the rail-
road official that he has recovered the
stolen goods.
If a freight car is robbed the spe-
cial agent pursues the same tactics.

seventy of the eighty-three precinct

paper in that city, had nailed the
Progressive banner to its editorial

A WEAK DEFENSE.

There are a good many men who
are taking II for granted that the
Chicago convention was really charac-
terized by the degree of fraud that
is megaphoned from Oyster Bay. and
a good many of this number VIII al
ways think this, chiefly for the reason
that they won't investigate the ques-
tion.-Marion Chronicle.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1912-08-13

The weakest feature OF the defense
is the assumption that all the public
knows about the Chicago convention
frauds is what Mr., Roosevelt may
have said. Fayette county voters did
not need any hints from Oyster Bay
to convince them that fraud was at
tempted in the Sixth district and
headed off just in time by strong and
decisive effort and that crooked work
was ACCOMPLISHED the night before the
state convention which deprived the
district of its rights on an important
committee. Things might have been
done squarely and above board up
around Marion but when Sixth district
papers quote the Chronicle to prove
that black is white they are only in
