Mr. Har rison having failed in all his efiorts to "placate" Boss Tom Piatt, called on Secreta r.v Foster for help, and he quickly evolved a scheme to bring Boss PI itt to time. He knew that the inost vulnera ble point of the New York b6fs was in his pocket, and it was through his pocket that the Secretary put his first shot by refusing to pay the f 00,000 charged by the express companies for trans porting $20,000,000 in gold from San Francisco to New York, and, by transporting it as registered mail matter, at the risk of the Treasury department, anil at a cost of nbout?2i00. .

The campaign text book will be ready in about two weeks. Mr. Gardner was a s k e d what he thought about the outlook, and he replied: "On the whole good.

Now, the question ari ses, is it possibly justifiable for a preacher to dabble in politics? Well, if he can en gage in politics without low ering the dignities of tin? min istry, it can be justifiable. What isthegie.it need ofnol it ics to-day ? Renovation and cleansing.
