.'COl. LumpkIn's Campaign

[John McAuley Palmer in McClure'sl
Colonel Timothy Lumpkin, OF
Westport, is a reformed Captain
OF Industry" He is running for
Mayor of Wes,port on a reform
fusion ticket, and copious extracts
from his speeches to the voters Of
his town form the basis of John
McAuley Palmer's account Of
"Colonel Lumpkin's Campaign"
in the August McClure's. The
Colonel's story Of how the City
Electric Railroad Company OF
Westport was recognized into the
City Electric Railway Company,
and from that into the Westport
Consolidated Traction Company
is surely one Of the wittiest and
most trenchant satires on modern
methods Of high finance ever print
ed. The Colonel is not only "wise''
but a good deal Of a wag. "If |
wanted" says he, ito sell a gold
brick, | would avoid farmers as
too sophisticated; 1 would look
for a railroad commissioner;
would expect him not only to buy
the brick but to pay two or three
times the market price OF gold.'
In the light of which comment il
seems fortunate for WestpoTt thai

he did.

as reflected IN the couftrecorde. You
will find che trail Of the canine there
Is pleiE a. = bear track in tho snow,

interesting than the average lawsuit
In which only men are involved. The
truth Il that no special line Of cases

our country. Even supreme courts
| have seriously weighed principles Of
Law as related to the life andafairs Of

hours Of sleepless study have been
spent in determining law and facts Of
a more or less personal interest in the
dog in the case. He has appeared in
almost tragic roles many times.
Again, and more frequently. in fact,
he is cast in a humorous part, but It
is not always funny TO the court or to

culiar case in our courts not many
months ago in which one man sued
another, not for the possession Of the
dog, but 10 get rid Of him. Theusual
order Eas absolutely reversed. The
plaintiff had been given a full blood
ed bulldog by the defendant He
priced the gift highly until he had be-
come acquainted with it. The dog
was so vicious that the new owner
could not feed him. No person was
ever known to be on friendly terms
with him. His food hadt be thrown
to him. The plaintiff tried to get the
original owner 10 take the dog back
He refused. He had experienced the
same trouble with the dog and did not
want any more Of his society. 1t was
then that the court was asked to com
pei the original owner 10 relieve the
plaintiff Of the dog on the ground
that he had misrepresented the dis
position and characteristics Of the
animal. The court was confronted by
a new question, or AneW aspect Of an
old question. OF course, the donor
Of the dog could not be compelled to
revoke the act Of gift, even though
the question Of malice figured, be-
cause the recipient had not refused
the gift. That some Of the most pc
