as an oyster is Of Intelligence
He seems to DO impervious-to the con.
tempt which is expressed for him on
all sides, and regards his last piece Of
dishonesty aud triokery Is 'good joke"
and as wholly 'defsnsible on tho ground
that che had not agreed that no person
else should bid fol him" 1t Is just
such joke a. it would be 70 steal one
hundred dollars from one mans safe,
and one hundred dollars from another
mans !; and theft Of this kind Lamb
would consider all right if he had not
stipulated, in writing, that he would
not steal this particular money. State
Prisons are full Of chaps whs grew up
with the Tines publishers idea as to
what constitutes "good joke" and
there are some chaps still outside who
are making the best use Of their op.
portunities in exemplifyingi it.
The whole case, in a aut.shell, ID
just here: Lamb, in a written agree.
ment, offered and pledged himself to
pay to the publishers of The JOURNAL
and Press one hundred dollars each il
they would not bid against him for the
tax Gsts-a very common, Legitimate,
business transaction they did not bid;
and Lamb, getting the contract, refuses
to redeem his pledge. His excuse is that
his bid Was not successful. Bat hil
bid was successful; for tho bid put in
in his fathers name was .or;tten B,
him and was his bid just ~ much
as was the Que to which his own name
was signed. The fraud is a. thin % i
is despicable. ' i
The one hundred dollars out O.
which Lamb has swindled, or thinks b
has swindled Gor the end il MOI ut,

tieular concern !; snd had it bean t.
