now FOR THE DEFENSE.

The prosecution in the Sulzer i'm
parchment case has rested, and the
tide Of the defense will now be present
ed. If the views which have been
widely expressed that in connection
with this case the first and most i'm
pprtant thing is to beat Tammany. the
taking Of testimony thus far has been
q farce, and the presentation Of testi-
mony on behalf of the governor will
be equally absurd. II Tammany and
anti-Tammany views are to govern,
the vote to convict or acquit might
rs we'll have been cast. without the
presentation Of any evidence whatever.
we must make a distinction between
o judicial investigation Of facts under
the law ana the association Of persons
or or%ganisations for political purposes.
Politics makes strange bedfellows. and
most naturally 50. because men who
differ widely on every other subject
may. possibly for entirely different
the same laws. It is not to the dis
credit Of a man, nor a reflection on
his public spirit or sincerity, that he
will work in q political campaign for
the same men and the same measures
that are supported by another person
Of a very dsirable type. The other
man may be desirable in many ways.
He may be guilty of various ~offenses,
but 80 long as these are not issues in
the campaign they need not be taken
into account
In the trial Of a man for SPECIFIC
of1enses under the law the situation is
very different. When the governor of
New York is charged with the misap-
preparation of funds 1t is not a SUM-
Client defense for him to say that his
accusers Are corrupt politicians who
have done as bad or WORSE things
Thus far Mr.. sulzer appears to be OF
ence what he has done II he can show
that Tammany is a bad organization.
Tho quality Of Tamnany will be very
readily granted by most people, but
they still have a right to insist that
Mr.. sulser clear himself Of the
charges made against him. And.
while It 10 admitted that it is innpor.
tant that Tammany be beaten. little
gecd will ever cone Of beating Tam.

Mr.. Local Dealer. these words

them-have faith to sell them.
II the manufacturer supple
ments his sale to you by Great

1t is time to push those
goods to the front. to show

know you have them.
There is no sentiment about
it. It IL plain. every day, good

OF death lined chambers and entries
and then. just at the beginning of the
day which had been fraught with pos.

ever watching the manway, came the
news that two OF the life-saving crew
were dead. Instantly that which
might have been WAS changed. With
but few exceptions the remaining hel.
met men wavered and refused to re.

who failed to escape from the mine
at the time OF the explosion is now
alive, In the opinion Of the rescuers.
