(ompunion story to the Recent Paint
Rock Dog Tnle.

Companion story to the Recent Paint
Rock Dog 1nle.
]. NJ. Gudger, jr., whose aequ .intanrc
with everything Madisonian is as vice
as the county itself, gives THE CITIZEN
two companion stories to the Paint
Rock dog narrative recently printed,
which 20 to show further the eccentricity
OF the old German gentleman named
Click, who figured in the first story.
Once upon time, the people say. one
of Mr.. Clicks cattle incensed him i'll some
wav and was promptly sentenced to
two years Imprisonment. The sentence
was carried out, too, but through 1t all
the brute received its regular allowance
OF food-sverythine but its liberty.
1t is thr second story, however. that is
the most unusual and will require the
most time in telling. In wears agone.
Mr.. Click went up to Marshall, which
was the Madisonites' Mecca on that dav,
there bting a circus in the town. While
taking in every thing about the show,
red lemonade. tbimbleriggiug games
peanuts, and the other accompaniment:
of a circus, Mr.. Clicks attention was
drawn to an oilv tongucd takir who was
selling soap. The price was two dollars
cake rather steep consideration. but
whenever the iakir unwrappcd cake
there was to be seen beautiful hve-dol-
lar bill. Mr.. Click could not resist-who
would not want five for two and went
into his inside pocket Tor "a wheels, v
taking I . cakes. Then he went home,
jubiant over what surely was his very
best days work. When he reached hone
he told the story OF his trade and then
proceeded to unwrap his purchase. He
had the soap-and that was ALL lie was
out $2+, less the trtlirg value OF the
soap.
Mr.. Click was chagrined. Mrs. Click
was more. She took her husbands hat
from his head and set it uponthe blazing
logs in the fireplace. When it had been
consumed, the good dame announced
that Mr.. Click was sentenced to bare
keadcdness for q term OF one year. What
is more, the sentence was served to thc

Nearly all of the early presidents
were farmers, George Washington
having been educated as land sur
veyor and having inherited a large
tract of land in Virginia Madison,
Jefferson and Honroe had stronghold
veloped rural tastes, and it was not, in
fact, until the large cities of the coun-
try, and more especially the large
cities in the nor thern states, absorbed
so large a share of political influence
that the lawyers became as prominent
as they now are.
In the present congress lawyers ore
ponderate, there being fifty-eight law
yers to one farmer in the senate, and
two hundred and twenty-nine LAWYERS
to thirty-four farmers in the house of
representatives. President Cleveland
was admitted to the bar
in Buffalo in 1859. Vice-Presi-
dent Adlai Stevenson was ad-
mitted to the bar in Metamora, Ill, in
1853. Secretary Of State Gresham was
admitted to the bar in Corydon, Ind,
in 1858. Secretary of the Treasury
Carlisle was admitted to the bar in
Covington, KY, in 1855. Postmaster
General Bssell was admitted to the
bar in Buffalo in 1858 Secretary of
the Navy Herbert was admitted to the
bar in Montgomery, the Alabama capt.
tai. shortly before the war. Hoke
Smith, secretary of the interior, was
admitted to the bar at Atlanta, Ga, in
1872.
The only two members of the cabinet
who are not lawyers are Secretary of
War Lamont and Commissioner of
Agriculture Morton. But Mr.. Lamont,
if not qualified by parchment to
practice law in the courts of this state,
is much better skilled in many of the
intricacies of Jurisprudence than a
great number of lawyers are, and his
advice and counsel have been repeated
~ sought both by large corporate in
terests and by legislators.
It is a somewhat peculiar fact that
presidential candidates have, with
scarcely an exception, been chosen by
both politi cal parties from the ranks of
lawyers and soldiers.
The republicans had soldier candi-
dates in 1856, 1868 and in 1872; they had
lawyer candidates in 1860, 1864, 1876,
1850, 1883 and 1892. Their one excep-
ton was 1884, when Mr.. Blaine, who
was neither a lawyer nor a soldier,
was nominated, but running on the
same ticket with him was Gen. Logan.
The democrats had soldier-lawyer
candidates for president in 1856, 1860,
1865, 1876, 1880, 1883 and 1892; they had
soldier candidates in 1864 and 1850.
Their one exception was 1872, when
Horace Greeley was the democratic
nominee.
Though farmers constitute the largest
class of American voting citizens they
are usually represented in congress or
the legislature by lawyers, and few
practical benefits have been derived by
farming communities represented in
congress or elsewhere by actual agri-
culturists. The present tendency is
for lawyers to become more prominent
in legislation than before, and for
farmers TO become less, so.
