Both sides are marshaling their forces, and the fight on this bill is evidently going to be the hottest of the session. All Washington is boiling." "It's easy enough for another fellow to talk," said Harry, despondingly, after he had put Philip in possession of his view of the case. "It's easy enough to say 'give her up, if you don't care for her. What am I going to do to give her up?"
