rage—Clubbing of the Members of
Parliament—Participants in the Af
fray to be Prosecuted for Inciting
Riot.
London, Sept. 29.—John Morley spoke at
Rt. Hele .’s to-night to a large audience. He
gave a graphic account of his experiences
during his recent tour of Irelaud, referring
particularly to the condition of affairs in
Tipperary, and to the scenes in which he
himself took a personal part He introduced
his speech with a political argument, and
then said that he went to Tipperary be
cause he felt that the proceedings there
marked the turning point in the great bat
tle ar.d because he felt that the government
was going to drive a good, strong
nail into its own coffin, and
he wanted to see the first blow
of the hammer. When be arrived at Tip
perary with his political friends he walked
peaceably to a cross road without having
any fear of disorder, when suddenly he
was hustled, pushed and meuaoed by
constables in a state of great fury. The
gathering people were very few in number
and no kind of obstruction was offered, the
nearest approach to a riot being a shrill
Tipperary cheer raised on his account.
AN ACT OF FOLLT.
He never 6aw such an act 'if folly as the
attitude of the authorities. Two members
of the House of Commons under arrest were
in charge of a squad of constables who had
the right of guarding the prisoners from
rescue, but throughout the day govern
ment officers put the constables in
an attitude that was calculated to
provoke a breach of the peace. Col. Cad
dell stated in the court room that this was
one of the most disorderly gatherings that
he bad ever wituessod.. Three or four
English ladies who occupied front seats in
the court room laughed at the absurdity of
of Caddell’s statement, and soon after
this the colonel withdrew his men.
CONSTABLES OUTNUMBERED THK CROWD.
These proceedings would have been
ridiculous if they had not been so dangerous.
But they were nothing to what followed.
The court house was in a small inclosure
provided with strong gates. It had been
asserted that he aud his companions
were followed to this entrance at
noon by an immense multitude. This he
absolutely denied. He believed that at no
time did the armed men defending the court
bouse numlier less than three to oue against
the civilians. It was as insignificant and as
harmless a crowd as he ever saw in his life.
Mr. Dillon, the speaker, llr. Harrison,
member of parliament, and others were ad
mitted at the gates, but the police refused
admission to the townsmen.
lie next saw Mr. Townsman, a solicitor,
flung violently from the gates and as
saulted. Mr. O’Brien went out and pro
tested against the exclusion of the public.
Messrs. Dillon and Harrison joined Mr.
O’Brien and their voices grew loud. With
or without orders, the police drew their
batons without a shadow of provocation,
and blood began to flow freely. He eaw no
stones thrown. Ho would undertake to say
that a couple of English constables would
have done everything necessary to guard
aeoess to court.
MEMBERS OK PARLIAMENT.
Mr. Harrison went out to the constables
and expostulated, but the only reply was an
attempt to strike him on the head while he
was trying to approach the constable who
was batoning the people’s heads. Another
officer then batoned Mr. Harrison ou the
head, after which Mr. Harrison, his
head dripping with blood, was ad
mitted to the gate. He (Mr. Morley)
saw a constable strike Reporter Keating a
murderous blow on the mouth, knocking
him off the wall on which he was sitting,
and causing the blood to flow freely.
Outside the gates there was another scene
of violence, the police using their batons
ferociously upon the heads and
bodies of the defenseless townsmen,
several of whom wore brought in the gates
dripping with blood.
He (Mr. Morley) went to Col. Caddell and
toll! him that be ought to open the gates
and admit the people. Then he went into
the court room, but found nobody there
except two resident magistrates and a few
reporters
QUIET AND ORDERLY.
After the gates had been opened, and
everybody who wished to enter had been
admitted, the court room was not filled,
while the “tumultuous” throng
of which Col. Caddell had spoken
was as quiet and as orderly as if
in church. These facts proved that the
original closing of the gates was umieces
sary ; that the statement that it was nieces
sary to reserve for witnesses the space
usually allotted to spectators was a mere
pretext and afterthought, and that the riot
ing was wholly on one side. If Col. Caddell
had acted in the first place as he afterward
acted in deference to his (Mr. Morley’s)
wishes, there would not have been a tittle
of disorder. The whole thing was a clumsy
blunder. But to commit a blunder when
deeding with armed men was crime.
A COWARDLY OUTRAGE.
If Mr. Balfour produced in the House of
Commons what had been published as the
official version of the affair, he (Mr. Morley)
would riddle it to pieces in ten minutes.
The resort to batons was a deplorable,
lawless and cowardly outrage. Mr.
Balfour's system was responsible for
these scenes. Through three and
a half yearsMr. Balfour had defended every
act of the executive, through thick and
thin, right or wrong. From the odious
and wicked slaughter at Mitchellstowu on
ward Mr. Balfour had always refused to
institute an effective public inquiry. He
had always denied the charges made
against the police. He had always refused
to beileve the word of an Irish member of
parliament, and thus the Irish people had
been left wholly at the mercy of the author
ities, without any supervision, without help
and without hope. No wonder the Irish
people did not respect the law. No wonder
they hated the government which inspired
such an abuse of executive force.
TO BE PROSECUTED FOR INCITING RIOT.
Dublin, Sept. 29.— 1 t is likely that the
last has not been heard of the collision be
tween the police and the people in front of
the court house at Tipperary last Thursday.
It is reported this morning that the govern
ment intends to prosecute many of the per
sons who were present in the crowd for
inciting riot. Mr. Harrison, member of
parliament for the middle division of Tip
perary, who received a severe blow over the
head from a policeman’s club, is mentioned
among those likely to be prosecuted. Col.
Caddell, presiding magistrate at the Tip
perary hearing, asserts that John Morley
unpealed to him to exclude the crowd from
the court house.
OBJECTION TO SHANNON.
The defendants and their friends were in
consultation again yesterday in regard to
the composition of court. AU grounds of
objection to Magistrate Shannon were
again discuss'd, auc the opinion was
reached that his sitting in the case was too
serious a matter to be tolerated if it could
possibly be prevented. It was decided,
therefore, to make one more effort to get
Justice Shannon out of the case, and a
plan of procedure was t< rmulated.
At the resumption of the trial this morn
ing limothy finely arose and addressed the
crowd on behalf of the defendants. He
referred to the refusal of the magistrates to
consider the propriety of Justice Shannon’s
wunarawing from the case, and announced
that 1 i view of this the defendants felt
themselves constrained to refer th- question
to the high court of jus: ice at Dublin. The
> defendants, be said, would apply to that
court to-morrow for a writ to prohibit the
present magistrate from proceeding with
the conspiracy cases, on the ground of bias
I against the defendants. Counsel for the
; crown, Mr. Heaiy continued, ought now to
j decide as to the wisdom and propriety of
going on with the hearing pending this ap
plication to the high c >urt.
WOULD NOT COXSENT TO SUSPENSION.
Mr. Ronau, crown prosecutor, said tb it he
could not consent to a suspensi >n of hearing
pending the proposed application. Tbere
up n the introduction of testimony for the
pros cutnon was begun, and the rest of the
day was taken up with the reading of
speeches by defendants on various occasions,
which, the crown contended, were of an
incendiary character.
TALK 3D ABOUT FIGHTING.
The Atlanta Senatorial Campaign Get
ting Red-Hot.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 29.—The state sen
atorial campaign is getting red-hot as the
day of election draws near. There was a
sensational meeting of the supporters of
Todd, the Clayto i county nominee, in the
court house to-night. When Frank Arnold
called the meeting to order a large milk can
and a number of glasses occupied a very
conspicuous place on the speaker’s stand.
Mr. Todd, the candidate, spoke first, set
ting forth the claims of Clayton county for
the senatorship. H - said it had been circu
lated that he was a buttermilk farmer, and
did not have sense enough to go to the legis
lature. He replied that he had always
given the people pure buttermilk, and be
proposed to give them laws as pure if he
was elected. He said he had brought a can
of bis buttermilk to the meeting, to let the
people try it and judge for themselves
whether it was pure.
A. A. Murphy, a great prohibitionist and
a temperance man, followed Mr. Todd,
charging Mr. Venable with having used bis
position as a legislator to advauce his per
sonal business. Mr. Murphy frequently
stopped while speaking to fill up on Todd’s
buttermilk.
THEY GREW PERSONAL.
While the speaker was throwing red-hot
shot into the Venable camp Bill Mic
kleberry, a saloon keeper, yelled out: “Oh,
this is no Todd meeting, it is a third party
prohibitionist meeting.”
"You are a liar, sir,” yelled Murphy,
beating bis fist on the desk. “I repeat it,
sir, you are a liar, and I live at 65>4 East
Alabama street, and I’ll be at home at 9:30
o’clock to-morrow morning.”
The crowd yelled, and then, seeing who
had made the remark, Murphy, with a
waive of his hand, cried out, “Oh; It’s old
Bill Mickle erry.” “It’s old Murphy,” re
plied Mickleberry. “Gentlemen,” con
tinued Murphy, “its old Bill Mickleberry.
Nobody is going to pay any attention to
such cattle as he is.”
A policeman stopped Mickleberry from
making further remarks and Murphy con
cluded his speech, The meeting was ad
journed and the crowd finished the butter
milk. The Venable crowd wiil meet to
morrow night.

THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1890.
PRINCE BISMARCK'S FORTUNE.
Be Has Many Other Tblngß Beside a
Peppery Temper.
From the London Globe.
Prince Bismarck is one of the largest
land-owners in Prussia, and is a descendant
of a noble family of Braudeburg, who
owned large hereditary estates. The grants
which have been made to him from time to
time constitute the bulk of his fortune. His
estate of Varziu was purchased by him in
1866 with the £60,000 allotted to him after
the Austro-Prussian war. Adjacent to it
be owns a distillery, where spirit is
manufactured entirely from potatoes
grown on his land. The profits
from this industry are sstimated
at £3.000 per annum. At Bcboenhausen,
another of his estates, he has a
large cattle breeding farm aud numerous
flocks of goese, producing together a yearly
income of not less than from £3,500 to
£4,0u0. Was there ever, may we ask, in
Prince Bismarck’s mind any hidden
satire beneath the surface of the fact, that
he is the muster of so many geese? After
the Franco-Prussian war in 1871 the Em
peror William allotted to him from the in
demnity paid to France the sum of if 160,-
000, with a portion of which he purchased
the domain of Freidrichsruhe. Here he has
established extensive saw-mills, where the
wood—all grown in Sa'-hen-Wald, and ex
tensive forest given to him by Emperor
William—is cut up and forwarded to Ham
burg for shipbuilding purposes. The profit
derived from this industry is another im
portant item in the ex-chanoellor’s income,
and is probably not less than £7,000 a year.
He has also a yeast factory at or near Stadt-
Hanover, which yields him an annual
income of £4,000. In addition to
these sources of revenue, Prince
Bismarck is credited with having a finan
cial interest in a breery, a paper fac
tory and other industrial concerns. His
jewels, pictures, plate, etc., are said to rep
resent a value not far short of £IOO,OOO. The
jewels are deposited at the Keichsba-.k, and
his available cash at Bleichroder’s. Now, if
we take the items specified, and add to the
amount they represent other items of in
come derived from his smaller trading op
erations, Prince Bismarck’s average net
income cannot fall far short of £35,0u0 per
annum, by no means a small revenue when
we take into consideration the average run
for fortunes in Prussia.
While residing at Vnrzln or Freidrichs
rube. Prince Bismarck invariably gives his
instructions personally to his teuant farm
ers, managers and foremen. He is not
above examining closely into the accounts
of bis stewards ad others in his service.
He minutely stndies all projected plans of
improvement in the management of his
property, and has always felt a pride in
declaring there was nothing consumed in
his household which was not produced on
his estates. Up to 1845 he was compelled by
circumstances to live in modest style. He
himself has admitted that, in tho hope of
adding to his income, he could not resist
the temptation to gamble, trusting
that iuck would favor him. The in
heritance which camo to him after the
death of his father somewhat improved his
financial position, by putting him in posses
sion of the domain of Schoenhausen. This
estate, which ho was compelled by fores of
circumstance to dispose of, was subse
quently repurchased by the nation and
given back to him. At one time frequent
appeals were made to Prince Bismarck by
the needy for assistance: but the ex-cuan
cellor is known to be most economical. He
does not often answer appeals to his charita
ble feelings. Some years ago he published
in the Berlin newspapers a singular an
nouncement to the effect that it was useless
to apply to him for help. To say the least
of it, the notice was singularly unceremo
nious and outspoken.
Freidrichsruhe, Prince Bismarck’s favor
ite residence, was originally a shooting-box,
built by Count Lippeslimberg in 1763. The
old building had completely disappeared,
but on the spot whore it stood a retired valet
had built a tavern, which for a long time
bore the name of “Frascati.” When Em
peror (then king) William made a present
to his minister of the domain surrounding
Frascati, Prince Bismarck turned tho house
into a kind of Swiss chalet residence, an and
called it by its original name. It is at an
hour’s ride from Homburg. At a short dis
tance from the seat stands tho inn of the
village, whoso inhabitants are principally
gamekeepers, railway servants, postofllce
employes, laborers employed at the saw
mills and their familios, with the addition
of a blacksmith, a tailor and a miller. The
most important personage in this com
munity, after Prince Bismarck himself, is
the headkeeper of Sachen-Wald, who is
also mayor of Freidrichsruhe.
ON THE SOUTHERN FRONTIER
An Unmarked Boundary Between
Mexico and the United States.
From the New York Star.
“One of the most important questions
pending between the governments of the
United States and Mexico just now, is the
proper marking of the boundary line be
tween the two countries." This remark
was made in tho course of a chat I had with
Senor .Tose M. Garcia of Janos, Mexico, at
the Fifth Avenue hoti 4 astevening. “You
must know,” he continued, iu explanation,
“that the boundary line between the two
republins is. for some 1,200 miles, purely
artificial. Down as far westward as El
Pasco, Tex., a line in the center of the Rio
Graude gives the water of the river eaually
to the two nations, hut from El Paso, Tex.,
to Tie Junia, San Diego county, California,
the line is an imaginary one, marked out
by monuments of iron and stone erected by
Commissioner Larrigui for Mexico aud by
Maj. Emory of the corps of the United
States engineers, for your country. When
this survey was completed, somewhere
between the years 1850-’56, the whole
country was an arid waste. Now it has a
large population, growing denser day by
day.
In view of the absence of a population,
the commission oontented itself by making
the line by erecting monuments—in many
cases ninety miles apart. Tho result now
is, that a man living close to the frontier
line either in Arizona or New Mexico, ex
cept he is in the neighborhood of a monu
ment, cannot tell whether he is in the
United States or Mexico, and, of course,
the same thing holds good on our side of
the border. So great has this trouble grown
of late that a Mexican custom house, until
a few years ago, was collecting duties m the
United States, while at the present time
miners from the United States are taking
up claims, undar your mining laws, upon
our territory.”
“Has anything been done to remedy tho
evili”
“Yes, but only by the military authori
ties. As early as 1883 a bill passed the
congress of tho United States, and that of
Mexico, providing for a resurvey of the
boundary, to be made by the military en
gineer officers of' the two governments.
The object of the survey was to determine
how many monuments would be required
to si mark the line that each monumeut
would be in sight of another, to the end
that a man could truce the line for himself
at any point. This work was so admira
bly done by Capt. Thomas IV. Symons of
tho United States corps of engineers, that
his field notes were nocepted by our gov
ernment, and his report to your govern
ment approved. That is all the good,
however, that came of Symons’ work. Tho
American congress has not appropriated
any money to remark the line, though our
government is ready to pay one-half the
expense. During Mr. Cleveland’s admin
istration our minister to Washington was
most earnest in his efforts to have the
matter attended to, and in one of President
Cleveland’s messages ho drew attention to
its importance, but that is all that has come
of it. Since the Republican party has gone
into power the outlook has become more
thau gloomy, and, effeuse me, but it seems
to us Mexicans that there is a desire on the
pnrt of your government to leave, for some
occult reason, a question unsettled which,
m the very near future, may give rise to the
most serious complications."
▲N INSOLENT HOTEL CLERK.
■
j He was Forced to Apologia to All of
1 hCB to Whom Be Had Been Rude.
Cablegram to the .Yew Fork Sun.
CoL James Pepper, of Pepper whisky
fame, who has been on a wedding tour in
Europe, sailed on the Servia to-day for
New York, followed by the blessings of
many American visitors to London, who
have stopped at the Hotel Metropole. The
employes of this establishment have never
been noted for oourtesy to American guests,
and this has been the case during the pres
ent season, particuiariv >.g the great influx
of transatlantic travelers has made the
hotels feel iudependen’. It was reserved for
Col. Pepper, however, to introduce disci
pline. The colonel and his wife came home
from the theater one niglit last week aud
Mrt. Pepper at once got into an elevator
while her husband stepped up to the desk
for his key. The night clerk, a particularly
haughty and pomp us person, was talking
to an Englishman close to a keyboard, but,
though CoL Pepper asked him throe or four
times for the key, the clerk paid not the
slightest attention until he had finished his
conversation. Pepoer took this calmly
enough, hut when ne got in-o the elevator
the Englishman, who had been talking to
the clerk, said: “I beg your pardon, sir,
but I think you really ought to k->ow why
that clerk was so inattentive. He said to
me when you first asked for yonr key ’he’s
only an American; Jet him wait.’ ”
The colonel’s Kentucky blood suddenly
rose to tbe boiling point. He sprang from
the elevator aud whipped a huge pistol
from his pocket.
“Come out from behind that desk,” he
shouted to the clerk. “Come quick, come
a-runnin’.”
The clerk came and he came running
likewise, perspiring with terror. His face
was astien, and though he was trying to
speak his lips moved like the jaws or an ex
piring trout, and no sound came from them.
Fifty people in the great corridors rushed
up to see what was the matter.
“Get down on your knees,” cried Pepper,
in an awful voice, relapsing into the Ken
tucky vernacular. "Get down on your
knees, or I’ll shoot your years off.”
The terrified clerk hesitated but a frac
tion of a second, and came down to his
knees on the marble floor.
“Now,” cried the Kentuckian, “you
apologize to every American that ever
stayed here for your impudence to
the people that keep your hotel going.
Repeat after me what I say: ‘I apologize
to all the Americans in London.’ Say it,
quick.”
“I apologize to all the Americans in Lon
don,” stammered the clerk.
“For all my previous incivility,” con
tinued the colonel sternly.
“For all my previous incivility.” faltered
the victim.
“ ‘And I hereby solemnly promise to treat
all Americans with respect and considera
tion hereafter.’ Quick, say it.”
The menial obeyed and Pepper then
allowed him to rise and retire behind his
desjr, the humblest and mo3t crestfallen
olwk in any hotel anywuere. Then the
colonel showed his pist >1 to the assembled
multitude. “It is oue I picked up in a curi
osity shop in Paris for a friend who has a
collection of ancient firearms,” he said,
“and it has not been loaded for a hundred
years, and the lock is rusted out.”
Up to dato the Metropole clerk has kept
his vow to treat all Americans with respect,
and the reverence he manifested when Col.
Pepper was about during the remainder of
his stay was touching.

WILL WIPE THEM OUT.
Idaho Sotttlers Will Kill off the Nez
Pereas Indians.
From the St. Louis Republic.
Dbnvkr, Col., Sept. 29.—Sensational re
ports were received here to-day from Mul
len, Idaho, to the effect that the settlers
within a radius of fifty miles had organized
for the purpose of wiping out of existence
the revengeful Nez Pereas Indians, who for
months past have amused themselves by
burning up towns, scalping the innocent
and outraging defenseless women.
Those dopi edatious by the rod-skins re
called a portion of history which ciusos the
fierce hatred that burns in the revengeful
heartß of the once great and powerful tribe
of ludians. In 1810 an old Scotch porter
in what was known as the Astor Fur Com
pany. with a few whites, encamped in what
is now the state of Idaho with a large band
of Nez Perces Indians. To stamp upon tho
minds of the Indians his great wealth and
importance he brought with him a solid
silver cup. One of the warriors’ temptation
for the cup became too great and one night
it disappeared. The affair, with the culprit’s
name, was next morning laid before the chief
and the cup recovered. The old Scotchman
determined that the great offense should not
stop short of death to the perpetrator. The
Indian begged and pleaded for mercy, and
his companions remonstrated with tho
Scotchman and asked for a light punish
ment, but the old niau was obdurate. The
thief wai strung up to a poorly constructed
gaPows, where he strangled to death. It
was not long after this t at the Nez Perces,
who had borne their wrongs in silent anger,
avenged the murder by mastering a
second party of Astor’s trappers. During
tho many years that intervened afterwards
hundreds of homes were made desolate. In
1887, under Chief Joseph, another terrible
onslaught was made upon the settlers.
Several days ago over 200 of these Indians
were camped near Mullen. The band was
composed of those who took part in the Nez
Perces massacre of 1877 and were camped
near the scone of the first outrage of that
yeur. They had 400 ponies, many squaws
and papooses and several painted warriors.
They claimed that the whites have no right
to that country aud they requested them to
leave, as this was their camping ground,
before they were removed to the reserva
tion at Uapivia, not far from Lewiston.
The settlers iu the Camas prairie, in North
Idaho, where, in 1887, the great depreda
tions were committed, fearing that another
uprising might occur, have now organized,
and the first unfavorable report that reaches
them will put an end to any further depre
dations on the part of the Indians.
Educating the Silkworm.
From the Xew York Evening Telegram.
An industry of great magnitude in Japan
is silk culture. The silk worm is “educated”
to such a degree that it becomes a mere
machine, and its life must be a burden to
it. It lays it eggs iu rows on cards; it
spins its cocoons to order, aud finally dies
when required. Silkworm eggs are white
and about the size of the head of a la-ge
pin. and they are sold on cards like buttons.
These egg cards may be kept all winter
long without harm to them, and hatched
out in the warm months. The young worm
is an exceedingly minute and delicate
animal, and the mulberry leaves adopted
for its food have to be chopped up as fine
as possible. As the worm grows older the
leaves are not chopped up finely, until,
when it is full grown, it is allowed'to enjoy
a whole mulberry leaf intact. This life of
dissipation is too much for it, and with a
little encouragement it seeks tho solitude of
its cocoon. The cocoons are then thrown
into hot water, which kills tho larvae and
dissolves the mucilaginous matter that
keeps the cocoon together. A silk worker
deftly finds the end, and in a fe \ moments
the poor worm’s home is abo it forty yards
of silk filer on a reel. A few of the larvae
are allowed to come to maturity for the
sake of breeding pu -poses aud the eggs. To
got out they break a bole through the
cocoons. Such cocoons are called pierced,
and from them an inferior quality of silk is
made.

KRKUTZ3R ECNATA TO BLAME.
A Breach of Promise Suit for Which
Tolstoi is Responsible.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch,
Ottawa, Sept. 29.—Florence Harrison
claims $5,000 from Roderick Moßae Mac
kenzie for breach of promise. Mackenzie
is a Scotchman, and for many years was in
the employ of the Allen Line Steamship
Company. Afterward he worked in Chi
cago, aud later lived in Walkerville, Ont.
He has been engaged to Miss Harrison for
more than two years. Two weeks ago he
came to Toronto for the purpose of making
arrangements for tbe wedding, which was
to have been on Saturday last. Every
thing went on harmoniously till Mon
day, Sept. 15, when Mackenzie packed a
small grip and left the house. He sent a
telegram from Walkerville telling Miss
Harrison to stop all arrangements for the
marriage. This was followed by a letter, iu
which Mackenzie broke off tbe engagement
and said that he had centered his affections
on another and was going to wei her. He
expressed remorse for his conduct, deplored
Miss Harrison’s forlorn condition and
wound up by laying the blame on Tolstoi’s
“Kreutzar Sonata” for his sudden change
of heart. He was determined to follow his
present course, he said, if ho had to leave
the country.
To-day Mackenzie returned to the city,
and, going to tbe Harrison house,demanded
his trunk. The request was refused, and
Mackenzie had a lawyer’s letter sent to his
fiance saying that if the trunk was not de
livered forth with action would be taken.
The trunk, however, was held till a writ
could be issued against Mackenzie and the
order for his arrest made out. It was
reported that a settlement would be arrived
at, but no advances were made to the plain
tiff’s lawyers to-day.
He Had a Relative Majority.
'•Some years ago,” said Col. Wintersmith to
a Washington Post reporter, “there was a party
of newly elected congressmen on a train bound
for Washington. Senator Blackburn, then in
the House, was in the group. The talk turned
on the majorities given in the recent elections,
and somebody asked the gentleman from Ken
tucky as to the size of his vote. He didn't re
member the exact figures, hut said he could tell
in a minute by referring to his election certifi
cate, which he handed over to the gentleman
inquiring.”
"A look of astonishment crept over the lat
ter’s fa:e as he read tf6 document, which certi
fied that Josepn C. S. Blackbnro had been duly
elected. It was signed by Lulo? Blackburn,
governor, and attested by James Blackburn,
secretary of state. ’Alii want to know is.’ he
whispered, bending near the senator ‘what
chance the other fellow would have in a race
like this?’ The trio was fraternal.”
