In an interview to the public press,

the nation that he will or or about the

lication of a weekly newspaper at Lin

avocation in life "there is no room at
the bottom of the ladder"' higher up the
rounds there is room enough for all.

There seems to be a great deal of spec
ulation by tba republican papers of the
state about the election of the two U. 8.

than any other man in the party toward

lent, for the reason that while tbey may
ap.eir on first reading to be plain, a fur
ther reading, or another law on the same
subject, will introduce technical points
io hinder its operation. If it is more con
venient, to obey the plain letter of the
law than to contort iho matter in .;ourt,
it will be obeyed, but if obedience will
inconvenience a porson more than a law
suit then the law is disobeyed with im
punity and the technical provisions are
rwlied on to avoid punishment. This is
tie exact sit tat ion with regard to oi r
"corrupt practices" act. It clearly for
bids certain tilings and the honest man
obeys the law. The dishonest man lo ks
farther an finds a lot .of technical pro
visions of procedure behind which he can
hide his guilty head (if he has money,)
and he disregards the law and expects to
go scot free. The Nonconformist.

January and February, shortened tbe
