“VULGAR DISCIPLINE."

Whether the Uilman machine
should have carried their victory last

tion into the field of personal rev
venge may well be questioned. In
this particular instance it was a sc-,
rious mistake of judgment to over-
look ill tempercdiy the merits ofl
‘Lioutenant Governor Bingham and,
Senator Bakeweli. and to confine
consideration of them as political
opponents to a personal estimate of
their usefulness to the machine un-
