An interesting and important question
that commands the attention of the American
people to-day, is whether great individual and
corporate wealth is inimical and hostile to
their welfare, and menace to our institutions.
This question is the more interesting because
it is now the leading theme of argument and
agitation by the socialists and has been made
the subject of much discussion by the press
and prominent men, not only in this country
but in Europe In this way public interest

Corn in Georgia

FUDGE JOHN NJ. DOOLY of Georgia was
j noted for his wit and the ability of always
having better story ready than any "whop
per" he might be told by friend. The year
1913 was an exceptionally dry season in Geor
ga and corn did not mature at all in many
portions of the State
Il have got the corn, Judge Dolly, that will
stand this drought any other one" said
Austin Edwards one day while they were dis
cussing the poor crops. I" | got it from
Tennessee cattleman, and planted a piece of
it in my garden. 1t came up in about week,
and every stalk had six large ears, and hanging
to the tassel was a nice little gourd full of
shelled corn 1t beats the Dutch Judge. Did
you ever hear of anything like that
The Judge listened with great gravity and
that isn't shade to the corn made by Tom
HAYNES of Hancock County. | was at court
there last week. and stayed with Tom. He
had just finished gathering in piece of low
swamp land which he cleared last year. Do
you know it never rained on that piece of land
at all and Tom didn't expect there was going
to be any corn. SO he turned his hogs in to eat
up the dry stalks. The hogs did not come
back usual the next morning, so he went to
look after them What his surprise to
find one of them with large ear of corn in
her mouth. He could not imagine where it
came from, but on examination found that
she had rooted it up from the foot of dried
corn stalk. He looked at other stalks.
and found that on the roots of all of them
there were from five to ten large ears of corn.
Then he had his field dug up and gathered the
best crop he ever had"
We'll, WE'LL" said Austin. That beats
my corn. l must have some of that seed"

Office

And are you the fellow that helped Jack

The Senator. thinking his time had come

We'll" said the man with the guns and

I'm a man of honor. Anybody in town you

Lincoln's Rebuke

THE saying that there are few honest lawyers
L did not hold true in the case of Lincoln. A
man once called to retain him on a suit
State your case" said Honest Abe
The man did. and then Lincoln said:
81 cannot represent you. for you are wrong,
and the other party is right"
That is none of your business if | employ
you" said the client.
Pardon me-" said the man who afterward
became President; my business is never to
defend wrong | never take a case that is
manifestly wrong"
We'll. but you can make trouble for the
other fellow
Yes" said Lincoln, Il can set whole
community at loggerheads. can make trouble
for this widow and her fatherless children. and

The Extreme Penalty

T ORD RUSSELL, famous jurist, once went
II to Scotland to help the Liberals in a
campaign. He purposely began his speech
with few sentences of bad Scotch, and then
when the confusion caused by the blunder
had subsidized, he said:
Gentlemen, l do not speak Scotch, but I
vote Scotch, and | often drink Scotch" He
was greeted with tremendous applause.
When Russell was young man he was Sit
ting in court listening to trial for bgamy. A
friend leaned across to him and asked, " Rus
sell, what is the extreme penalty for bigamy?"
Two mothers in law" was the reply

Practising by Ear

V/HEN Grover Cleveland was practising
w law at Buffalo. among his associates
was young lawyer who. though a bright
fellow, was rather inclined to laziness. He
was forever bothering Cleveland about points
of law rather than look them up himself.
At last Cleveland became tired of it. and the
next time the young man sauntered in. Cleve-
land knew what he wanted and. getting up.
pointed to his bookcase and said. There are
my books. You are welcome to them; you
can read up your own case"
The fellow was caught, but he rose to the
occasion. See here, Grover Cleveland" he
said g | want you to understand | don't read
law. | practise entirely by ear. and you and
your books can go to thunder"

All He Asked

CTEPHEN A. DOUGLAS, who will be re-
~ membered in connection with Lincoln at
Springfield, was very demonstratve in his pro-
fessions of friendship. One day he sat down
on Beverly fuckers knee, and throwing his
arm around the Virginian's shoulder, said,
"Bev. old boy. l love you"
Douglas" said Tucker, will you always
love mel"
YES. Beverly, surely will
But" persisted Tucker, will you love me
when you get to be PRESIDENT"
Indeed l will. What do you want me to
do for you,"
Well said Tucker "al l want you to do
then is to pick out some public place, and put
your arm around my neck just as you are do
ing now, and call me Bev."

Talking to the Wrong Man

WHILE Dooly was holding court in Wash
w ington County. Georgia, certain
General Hanson who was famed a blowhard
came in and sat down at the side of the
Judge and began to tell him about the vast
amounts of property he owned.
Stop just moment. General" said Dolly.
"Mr Sheriff, call in Jones, the receiver of tax
returns"
In few moments that worthy appeared.
Mr.. Receiver" said the Judge come up
here and make an inventory of General Han
sons property. He had mistaken me for you"

An Effective Riddle

IN one occasion when he was busy President
~ Lincoln received delegation of men who
were endeavoring to hurry the passing of some
petty bill When they entered Lincoln looked
up gravey, and said:
IF you call the tail of a sheep leg, how
many legs will the sheep have?"
Five" said the spokesman.
No" replied Lincoln, L" it would only have
four. Calling the tail leg wouldn't make it
one"
The delegation departed in discontinue.

Would Take His Word for 1t

nOOLY, despite his good humor, had biting
II strain of satire. On one occasion young
lawyer named Jacks was delivering a speech
against Calhoun. He ought not to be elected
constable of this district. He hasn't either
character or principle" he said.
Dooly heard HIM through, and then IN l., a
Calhoun well, and l am certain that he has
great respect for public opinion, and is, more
over, very modest, and if you will write to him
he will take down his name and not run for
Congress at all"

was noted an angler, but he had poor
memory as to the weight of the fish he had
taken. On one occasion a friend, trying to en-

Chicago, Aug. 9.-COrnelius P. Shea
will rule the international Brother
hood of Teamsters for another year.
He was practically unanimously re
elected this afternoon to succeed
himself as president at an election
from which the delegates who bolted
yesterday continued to absent them
selves. The vote for president stood
15S for Shea and Is for John White of
New York.
The rest of the Shea ticket went
through without any opposition. The
bulk of the other Offices go to Chicago

Canada since 1903 is absolute mon
arch so far as concerns the union re-
naming loyal to the brotherhood
The only drawback to his power is
the dissensiOn which led to the with
drawal of about fifty delegates from
the convention yesterday and the
launching OF movement to organize
a rival international union. The move

AN EFFORT TO RECOVER
ALTHOUGH ESTATE OF DECEAS-
ED HAS LONG BEEN DIVIDED
GOVERNOR WILL TRY TO GET
BACK THE MONEY.

indianapolis, Ind, Aug .. (SpD-
The committee Of experts who have
been examining the record in the
state officers for several months has
completed its inquiry for the four
years incumbcncy of State Auditor
James H. Rice. from 1883 to 1887,
and today filed a report with the Gov
ernor.
The committee reports that Rice re
ceived during his term the sum Of
$4,000 which is duly credited up on
the books, but there is no record
showing what was done with the
money. The books of the treasurer Of
state do not show that it was ever
paid over as should have been done
under the law nor is there any re-
Ceipt on file in the Office of the audit
or showing that Rice paid it out
Rice died in 1892 and his estate
which amounted to about 100000 has
long since been distributed among his
heirs. The Governor holds that the
missing $4,000 was embezzlcd and
that it can be recovered. 1t is under
to recover the money, but neither he
nor Attorney General Miller will say
in what the steps consist.
