Show Our Own Perry. The New York Times tells what a struggle eastern officers have been through trying to find the Hon. Perry Heath, under a suspicion that he would be a valuable witness in the trial of ex-State ex-State Senator George A. Greene of New York, on trial in Washington for bribery and conspiracy in connection with the postoffice scandal uncovered In 1903. It adds that it has been alleged that Heath "knew something about the deal by which the Doremus canceling machines were installed in the postoffice department. It' is In connectfon with this that Greene and Willard D. Doremus are being tried." If the Times knew how such a statement as the above, implicating by inuendo at least our own Perry Heath with a close connection with men who might be called grafters, we are sure It would never have given the words publicity, because be-cause has not Perry all his life been working almost al-most for nothing? Has not his chiefest business seemed to be to toll for others unmindful of selfish rewards? |
