Mr.. Plat summoned me 70 come to see

preliminary statement-there had been
great troubles in the canals during the
preceding six or eight months. The
question of the canals and their man.
agement was one of the great issues OF
the campaign. 1t had been alleged that
they had been very incompetently man
aged, and il had also been alleged that
they had been very corruptly and ex-
travagantly managed. | had my own
way on a number of these things. Now,
Mr.. Platt-ths is the point where

Didn't Attack Boss Rule.

Odd you in the campaign attack
boss rule? A.-Not at all. 1t was not
an issue.
Q.-Why was not it an issue, If there
was a machine and there was boss
rule? A.-Because there was no feeling
against it at that time.
Q.-Then you do not attack anything
unless there is feeling against II, Is
that what you mean 20 say? Al
attack | attack inequities, | attack all
wrongdoing. | try 10 choose the time
for an attack when | can get the peo-
pie to accept the principles for which
| stand. | believe that you can only
accomplish reforms Of q permanent
character when you can educate the
people up TO the point Of standing by
them.
Q.I think you have answered the
question. You stand by righteousness
do you not? Al do.
Q.-With due regard to opportunism
A.-No, sir; not when 1t comes TO
righteousness.
Q.-Does not your last answer state
that? At does not, sir. say be-
lieve emphatically that we must have
a due regard for opportunism in the
choice o. the time and methods OF
making the attack. But you must stand
for righteousness. whether you are go
ing TO be supported or not, just exactly
as | did while | was Governor.
Q.-Now. does that rule apply to
other people in their judgment with
regard TO righteousness and opportu-
mites for its expression as we'll as il
does TO you? A.-Of course it does.
Who Is the Judge!
Q.-Does that apply TO Mr.. arnes
just as much as it does TO you? A
IL does apply to Mr.. Barnes just as
much as it does TO me.
Odd it apply to Mr.. Barnes Just
as much as it did to you in 1912? A
BY his attitude toward righteousness
and mine in 1912, it did not apply to
IL.
o. will come to that later. Blu.
want an answer 10 my question on
this point. Has not every man an
equal right 20 determine his own rule
OF righteousness and his own time of
applying il? Ale has if he has got
the root Of righteousness in him. II
he is a wrongdoer, he has not.
Q.-Who is the judge, you or he?

than this there was no treatment

the seed in plowed furrows 4 inches
