Polk WaWs the Victim.

In 1914 James X. Polk was nonli-
mated by the Democrats for president
After the nomination the Albany Jour
nal published what purported to be
an extract from Roorback's Journal,
OF trip through the South, repre-
sented to have been made some few
years before, in which he told of see
fng "a gang of colored men being driv-
en- to the southern market, all branded
y. X. p" as the property of James x.
Polk. The object was to stigmatize
Polk as a heartless slave owner. TIE
publication was resented by the Demo
Gratis as forgery and libel on their
candidate, and so it proved to be, for
1t turned out that there was no such
person as ROorback and that the pre-
tended letter was written by disrep-
utable politician of New York who
posed as an abolitiOnist. The incident
caused much hard feeling and the
word roorback became synonym for
a campaign lie.

Washington, Nov. 3O.-Chaotic con-

year now seem unavoidable, according
to a treasury statement which has
been prepared commenting on the de-
lay of congress in enacting the pending
revenue bill. The only way to avoid
resorting to collections under the old
law, the treasury now believes, is for
congress to rush the bill to completion
within two weeks. Most house and
senate leaders do not believe this pos
sible.
