fortunate. Profits, should say, would
probably be lessened all around. In
all such matters it is well to look to
the future"
BLAST the future!" responded Mr..
Emery. Il don't believe in playing too
long game. Grab what you can and
get away with 1t. is the motto of BUSH
ness in these days"
AT the same time" said Mr. Bowers,
thoughtfully, when large capital IS
invested, prudence is required to"
BLAST prudence! What fellow
needs is imagination When one fake
is played out, get up another. It can
be done in the same line as well as in
another if man has a head on his
shoulders, and there's your capital
sound as nut"
The younger men present strongly
approved of Emery's sentiments, but
the older ones were silent. They re-
garded such controversies as distinctly
immature, indicating an unfamiliarity
with the world
When you fellows get older" said
one of them, You won't bother your
heads discussing the value of fakes;
you'll have all you can do inventing
them for your own business"
1T seems TO me-" said |, that the
gross immortality of these proceedings
is the paramount consideration. In
these days we are much too lax in our
estimate of the wrong of cheating the
government"
went on eloquently in this strain
for nearly five minutes, and then, as
nobody remained in the room, stopped.
Later, however, / succeeded in discover
ing Bill Emery, who was hiding in the
corner of the billiard-room. was
about TO continue nv remarks when he
interrupted me by saying:
Now, look here, Howdy, IL you
think there ought to be more fuss made
about this matter, just gather all the
business men in New York who
wouldn't cheat the government il they
got chance, and take them with you
10 Washington to urge the authorities
TO prosecute. III drive the party over
there in two-seated wagon, and we'll
get little dog to sit on the rear seat
SO that it won't be entirely unoccupied.-
That closed my efforts as a modern
Dlogenes looking through my club for
an honest man.
But perhaps the reader thinks that il
is unfair to take the average of honesty
in such circles as frequent, where the
moral debility resulting from grea.
wealth and the perpetual desire for
more is naturally great. II may be
generally admitted that the rich are
not honest. Let Us, then. consider the
others II Is necessary 10 live In very
large city in order TO appreciate how
honesty fans wien the basis or SELF
interest is removed In a town or a
city Of moderate size the man who buys
