obliged to buy new uniforms and 10 put
in considerable extra time so he believed
they were entitled to the money. He
moved to substitute the resolve for the
report

Boynton as right and that the extra
money had not Deen paid two years ago,

the Democrats TO the Republicans? Had
the Democrats paid the little extras
they doubtless would have kept control
