safed to it by tbe federal constitution! 1 I
The only way to prevent tbe consumma
tion of this terrible injustice, threatened
as the result of tbe awful work of tbat

man, who bas kindly oome to tbe front
and csst himself into tbe breaob to save
the state be loves so well from tbe
threatened interregnum, offering him
self, pure and nncontamlnated as a ves
tal virgin, and bis services to keep tbe
sacred fires of liberty burning on the
altars of bis oommoo wealth. This un
selfish patriotism, this devotion to tbe
cause ot the people, of this great and
good man, is enough to recall to earthly
scenes the shades of tbe heroes of old
It is, in fact, enough to turn tbs heart
of a grindstone, or to s'art tears, large

many politioal leaders. J.ie Simon is
seriously crippled and must give in tc
Senator Mitchell. Soott has played bis
