A Radical's Explanation 1 of th? Dif
ference Betwixt Tweeele-dum and
Tweedle-dee. . I .
: A'vitness Who is a first-cUss Rad
ical and a prominent member of the
no kitchen party, having! been swoni
before the Shipp Fraud Commission,
testifies as follows (see page 534) :
" The Secretary of State (wiio is also
one of the chief men in that party)
came into my store and sked tire
price of carpet. I replied 2.25 a
yard. - He said he wanted 500 yards
for the State. I offered to' take 1.93
or $965 for the 500 yards. He -went
off, but returned the next day and
bought two sets of. vidua for $r30,
which I sent to his house. He came
back next day and took 500 yards of
carpet at $1.93. He then asked me
if . I knew the difference between
Tweedle-dum and Tweedle-dee, I
said; no." , lie then made4 some
figures on a piece of paper thus, 2.19
multiplied by 500 $1,095 ; $905 &
1 3 01 095, which I understood to be
a proposition on iliis part to pay me
$2.19 a . yard for the carpet that I had
offered at $E93' a ;y ad. The difler
ence in the amount being $130, what
he owed me for his cl ina. This h(j
said rwas ; the dilferenee between
Tweedle-dunr and Tweedle-dee. . I
said all I wanted was my ny ' and
Tie could pay it as he pleased, either
in State warrants' or out of his own
.pocket.' Ile 'gnv me the warrant on
the State ! Treasui er for 500 yards
carpeting at $2:1911,095:1)0, and 1

Tweedle-dee. I The way to manage it

Tlieiy assail our candidate in "the

endeavor to blacken the good fame

why don't Caldwell uike them on

Instead of this, neither Ji nor Brog-
