Wilson had secret but powerful reasons
for making the appointment. and they
generously overlooked the methods by
which Mr.. r. Il. Smith was deprived OF
the office which he was entitled to,

Thus one more instance Is furnished

claims through its public utterances and

be multiplied ad infinitum. But what
