This typo is nil, too rare in the stato legislature, as anyone who has
made a study of that institution, knows. Hut as Mr. Sheldon declares
;a his statement today, there is no issue between him and Mr. Dunn,
they differ widely in temperament, but not in essential principles or
integrity of character.
Moreover, the progressive type is today suffering a certain
eclipse. There, is a wide-spread feeling iu this 'section and through

with white , agapanthus lilies.
These formed a picturesque back
