THE MEANRST MAN.

He said: I'm the meanest man In
the world; know 1 am went home
the other evening and l was feeling
pretty good, you know. My wife didn't
say a word, but about 2:41 a. m. l woke
up and observed a ghostly figure going
through my clothes. I snored gently
In a minute or two the figure drew
something from vest pocket, looked
at it in the faint moonlight, appeared
to ponder for a short time went to a
bureau, secured something, put it in
the vest and came back to bed. l was
still snoring, The next morning ]
found a dollar bill and 40 cents in
change in my vest"
'Well?" demanded the listener.
well, you see she thought l would
suspect something if there wasn't any
thing at all in my pockets, and when
she took the ten-dollar note she put
in the $1.4O."
Don't call that so mean, to let her
do that"
Maybe not. But would have liked
to have seen her expression when some
clerk handed her back that $40 Con-

motive underlies the campaign of de-
famation need not here be discussed,
but for all, friends and foes, it is rel
terated that the Standard Oil Company
is carrying on a widespread business
of great moment to the prosperity of
the American people in absolute ODE
dience to the soundest principles of
business and to the spirit and letter of
the law. Attacks upon it of the kind
described are aimed at the nations in
dustrial and mercantile life.
1T is encouraging, amid the fury of
the hour, which assails so many cor
porations, all organized industry and
all wealth, to know that scores of
editors through the country, on exa-
mination of the facts, have forcibly
and clearly expressed their opinion
that the greatest wrong has been done
to the Standard Oil Company. Fol-
lowing their example, 1t is sincerely
hoped that editors who have passed
hasty judgment on the company will
also examine the facts and reach just
conclusions That our friends may
know more fully how the truly indie
pendent are upholding right and
honesty, few editorial comments are
appended, following Mr.. Moffett's pub
lie statement on the Alton case. Eacn
one of the articles and extracts will
repay reading"

CHIEF JUSTICE FIGURES IN JOKE

They are having a perfectly jolly
time at the national capital these days
over a story in which Chief Justice
Fuller figures, says Law Notes. The
Chief Justice, so the story runs, met
an old-time friend, and after passing
the time of day, remarked "You are
looking exceedingly well. Aren't you
filling out a little?"
No, indeed" replied the wag of a
friend. you probably think so be-
cause I'm looking Fuller in the face"
Every time that one is told there are
hearty bursts Of laughter from the
hearers.
