In charge of the sale estimates that It will take about two weeks to dispose of all Che articles He believes the government will derive a profit of about 3500 from the sale an Increase of about 200

follows that the Record is less and lessji true transcript of what takes place on tr floors of the House and Senate In a debate Senator Flareup says some things which he knows would not meet the approval of his constituents and he aska that he be allowed the privilege of revising before being sent to the printer Of course this request is always granted and he trims and tones to suit himself
