Neither one of ‘em will imperil his chances for the nomination or election by opposing the business | interests. They're both cowards. Morrison made a ittle fun of Ran- dall’s business interests, during the apeakership fight, but he knows as well as anyone that the business in- terests have the money to run the slave for » purpose."’ The Congressman etupped here. and tantalizingly began to puff at a cigar, Very seldom does «a news- paper man lose control ot a serene equanimity when information is be- ing imparted to him, but this much of the Congressman’s story excited my intense anxiety to know the bal- | ance, and I impetuously said: “See here.
