Out to Wreck Plans.
THE word has a so gone around
that certain districts have their own
little political machines here in
Washington to run the affairs Of that
district. l want TO warn those men
who may have such an idea that I'm
going to wreck all political ma
chimes. and before I'm through with
this exposition this bureau is going
to be operated on sound modern
business principles and every phase
of it is going to be clean and above
board"

Forbes for some of the difficulties
