Begun Where He Should Have Left OF.
Mr.. Mills should have begun where he
proposes to leave Off. He should have
turned his attention first to the internal
revenue system. By abolishing that in
stitution altogether, or removing in
greater part its odious impositions, he
would have secured a fixed, certain and
determinate reduction in the government
revenues. If anything remained to be

Thomas j. Potter's Career.

Thomas j. Potter, the Vice President
and General Manager of the Union Pacific
system, whose death was recently an
nounced, rose to his prominent railroad
position literally from the bottom of the
ladder, and step by step entirely through
his native ability aud unwearied exertions.
Beginning as a lineman in the engineer
corps of the Burlington and Missouri River
Railroad, lie rose TO the Vice Presidency
and General Managers Office in the Chi
cago, Burlington and Quincy Road through
the successive steps of station agent,
fuel and claim agent, general agent, As
sistant Superintendent of the Iowa
Division, Superintendent of the division,
General Superintendent of the road, Gen.
eral Manager, Third Vice President, and
First Vice President. At this point in his
career his abilities were SO fully recognized
and his reputation as a manager was SO
we'll established that any road in the coun-
try would have been glad to have secured
his services. Numerous tempting offers
we're made TO him, but the Union Pacific
system obtained the prize, and as its Vice
President and General Manager he has
passed away, literally dying in harness.
The career of Mr.. Potter shows what can
be accomplished by a man who 10 his na-
tive ability joins the qualities of economy,
industry, capacity for exertion and appli-
cation. The rewards Of such career
rarely fail. in Mr.. Potters case he re-
ceived them early, for he was in the prime
and heyday OF life-only 48 years OF age
when he reached his exalted position.

human progress is marked by the tomb Of the
dead opinions of the majority. No one will
be poorer II it shall be proved that there is
no foundation for the claims OF the Shaks-
leareans
Shakespeare used a coat arms and claimed
gentle blood, but Hallowell Phillips, the high
est authority on the subject, shows that he did
both fraudulently, having no right to either.
His father was a wool-picker in Stratford, and
he was the only one Of his race that could read
or write, his father and mother and their faith
ers and mothers making crosses for their sigma
lures not because they were religious, but for
the reason that that was as near as they could
come to writing their names. Even Richard
Grant White, who said that the man who claimed
that Shakespeare did not write the plays should
be in madhouse, conceded that the plays
could not have been written without n great IL
brary, and could not be read without great IL
brary. The plays bore evidence OF thefnct that
their author was familiar with the literature Of
books have been written by lawyers to prove
that this author must have been q profound
lawyer. Lord Justice Campbell says that
whenever layman brings law into his writ
ings he is apt to fall into error, but that from
Shakspeare's law there is no appeal
There wasn't an English grammar in exist
sS gRRs aR EhsR @as not
The first record Of Shakespeare shows him hRur
ing in n beer-drinking bout. Then he became
a poacher, was frequently arrested. and finally
fled TO London, after marrying under discredtt-
able circumstances woman several years his
senior, whom he had compromised. There
wasn't a book in his house and in Shakspoare's 8
will. while there are bequests OF a bed, sword,
u goblet, and other things. there is not a be-
queet of n book or anything else OF a
literary character. The family OF Shak-
speare held the original property until tho
beginning of the present century, but not
a scrap Of bis writing has come down to
the world except four sgnatures-three
on mis- will and one on deed to some property.
There isn't letter from him, and but one to
him, and that was written by fellow who
wanted to borrow some money. There are
manuscripts OF plays in the British museum
from period 20O years before his time, bus not
one from him.
In contra to Shakspearo's plebeian origin
and alleged illteracy, he argued that Bacon
was patrician and scholar of gifts commen-
surate to the task of producing the plays, and
in conclusion assured the audience that his
position was not q matter Of belief, but one
which he had proved. and which his book would
prove to the world, he was right in assuming.

About three years ago the watch-case manu-

did likewise. Then the jobbers in
American watches combined, their associ-
