THAT made me like him after I
cooled down. He gave his honest
opinion, and he stuck to it.
"And Watson?"
"Watson! Stop!" said Mr.. Foulke,
violent laughter is bad for one of
my age. Watson, of course, he has
no serious purpose except the pos
session of few votes to trade for
PERSONAL advantage. AS a Presi-
dent, he's little less than an i'm
possibility, and every one in politics
knows it."
But" he concluded, "at this mo-
ment I'm less concerned about the
presidency than about the honor OF
