The unanimous recommend iation of this committee that Holton's nomination by the President be con firmed and the fall down of those fight ing his confirmation is row a matter of historjC , .. :' ' '' - Holton is a curious, man, While ap pearing iron nerved.it has been well known that he was greatly troubled over the fight made on Jiim," touching as it did, hia real y most sensitive point pride in the conduct of his office and hope for an endorsement of his record is a capable and fearless official. The ighton him began three years ago when he first bearded in their den the strongly entrenched forces of revenue officials and distillers by indictm and prosecuting to conviction and sentence, Young Sprinkle and Angle of Rocking ham and Cii8e.l rounties, revealing a system of "graft," wnich ramified the revenue circle f. seven States, and came so uricomfrta''ly near depart ment officer, that th term "reaching higher u" na first used by this cor refrpondent. In hia speech in defense of the defendants in that case, Judge Bynum did not ht-iate to charge that it was imp: s ible for defendants to be guilty of offens- charged "without the active connivancp or criminal negli gence of officers higher up in the rev enue service." Holton did not stop with that case but went on higher up; until instead of storckvpeers and guag ers and distillers alone being indicted, he went "higher u" and.took in the deputy collectors. And like a snow ball gathering weight by every' turn, the fight on Holton has gathered it tei -sity by every new indictment, until there are at least twenty-five promi nent attorneys alone, now interested in seeing that he be not confirmed, in duty to clients whose fees they had taken to defend them' against indict ments, which only Holton could with experience prosecute. - Having left the distillers, after the Young and Angle case, and taken a step higher up by going for the store-keepers and guag ers, and from them taking a higher step and going for the deputy collec tors, the interest.ng question now is, "1 the man crazy enough to attempt to "go up" still and bag bigger than even a Congressman'" Today this man of iron nerve and heart showed deep feeling as well as ! the delight of a school boy over the re lief from the heavy Btrain. What sivmod to upset him worse, was the ev- li lwe he had had from all over the , St ite from men in every cull'ng of the I h lief that jn the contest it was right, J w nli he was champion'ng. 'I can' Jike it as a personal vi:tory for myself," he continually repeated.
