siuou 10 found chairs for the advance ment
of the gentle art Of prevarication'
Nj Dupre's outburst was Occasiuncd by
the recollection that San Francisco when
ii got the exposition had promised that II
would not ask the Federal Government to
contribute "A penny I'm furthcring the en-
terprise. II was brought out in debate
that rhe exposition authorities had OBJ
tanned ALREADY more than 100000 from
tho Government In addition To the $500
600 appropriation carried by the sundry

man for the Job Mr. BACON was for some
years Assistant Secretary OF State-Mr

he became Secretary Of state. lie also
represented this country abroad as Am
bassador to France. and in all these posi-
tons he proved himself "A diplomat OF no
mean calibre
Here, then. we have a man of undouhted
ability and unquestiOned integrity. The
only question IL whether he would be will
ing to accept the post II offered. Judging

hazard the guess that he would be willing
