II cases was present and not voting.
Recently Nj. Aiken Aas been busy
and nas been trying to :.elp the hail
sufferers, but about year ag there
were many hail sufferers, but nothing
was heard from Mr.. Aiken then. Mr..
Aiken mas a paper ever here in Alb
beviilc that sneezes every time he
.&kes snuff. 1t nas been talking
about what he did about putting mail
Oh some gas cars on the Blue Ridge
road He had nothing to do with
it. Mr.. Aiken introduced a two cent
rate bill and yet Tor the nineteen years
n was stenograpIer he had his
rockets full Of railroad passes.
In concluding Mr.. Horton said you
Will always find me standing by the
interests Of the people. He said it

or Fred Dominick would be the next
congressman 1Ir. Aiken has the ad
vantage of the patronage, and Mr..
Bradley, his elk, Or whatever he
calls himself. has been going over the
district trying to mend the fences, but
the breaks are too great. He cant
mend them
Mr.. Aiken asked for brief reply,
Which was granted. He said he did
not take the Craftsmanship of the Dis
trict of Columbia committee because
his then friend Mr.. Johnson, of Ken
lucky, asked him to let him have it
as it would help him at home in his
race for governor, but afterwards Mr..
Johnson did not run for governor. Be-
sides he did not care for it as it en-
tailed a lot of work He said he knew
that Mr.. Dominick got his imSorma-
ton from one James NJ. Baker, the
grandest rascal in Abbeville, and
man whom no one in his neghbor
no d would believe. AS to the pure
food bill, Mr.. Horton was partly right
and partly wrong. He did vote against
it because it contained certain pro-
VISIONS he could not endorse, but
when it came back from TIE senate
with these cut out he voted for it.
Mr.. Dominick in reply said that he
did net get the information from Mr..
Baker but from newspaper clipping
from The State, written by P. H Nc
G0wan That he held no brie; for Mr.
Baker, but he would say that for 20
years ne mad been an assistant libra
rian in Washington, and had been
elected to the highest position in the
that Of clerk, which he thought
was sufficient answer for anything
Mr. Aiken might say.

digging bitches to working in iron
mills and offices, and have through
my own resources and hard work
