I'd rather see Krebs mayor."
Miller Gorse was one of these rulers behind the screen, and Adolf Scherer, of the Boyne Iron Works, another; there was Leonard Dickinson of the Corn National Bank; Frederick Grierson, becoming wealthy in city real estate; Judah B. Tallant, who, though outlawed socially, was deferred to as the owner of the Morning Era; and even Ralph Hambleton, rapidly superseding the elderly and conservative Mr.
Leonard Dickinson was the most moved of the three; but they were all distressed, and showed it even Tallant, whom I had never credited with any feelings; they spoke about the loss to the state.
