OF the people. Sherman is markedly
80. He has the winning drollery. the
dry, keen hnmor and the story telling
habit for which Lincoln was famous.
Sherman's stories. like IAincoln's. are
no spun TO kill time. but to point Il
moral. to enforce an argument or to
reveal some phase Of human nature
That n needs To know in order to
deal rightly with 4 human problem.
sherman is q native of Miami our
tv. Ohio. He was born In 1858. Less
than a year later ha was brought to
Illinois by his parents. Larry" Sher-
mans new home was on Il farm, where
he trampcd barefooted through clover
fields. fought bumblebees with his hat
or a paddle with a hole in it, and at
tended the country school.
When he became 16, this homely
and almost alarmingly smart boy went
to work on his fathers acres, and for
three or four years al the schooling
he had WAS acquired under his own
direction from books. He read every
thlng in sight at home and then for
aged the neighborhood for books. In
1917 he attended Lees Academy in
Cole county for three months.
One summer he gathered together.

him a big sum. He ~disguested some

A little later he was a student of
law in McIIendree college and was
graduated in 1882. The budding
lawyer started from Jasper to Nc
Donough county with n load of apples
gathered from his fathers orchard.
He sold these in Maccmb from n l.
horse wagon. He carried the fruit
downstairs in baskets and poured it
around cellar floors. He set his hand
to other humble tasks. and with q lit
tie change ahead he entered the law
office of Judge Damon G. Tunnicline.
a little later he was elected city at
torney Of Macomb. exactly the kind Of
job with which Shelby NJ. Cullom
started his remarkable career of fifty
eight years in public Office. After two
more Years Sherman was elected coun-
ty judge. In a very few years he be-
came n Of the leading attorneys Of
central Illinois. He was elected to
the Illinois house of representatives
in 1895.
Sherman served two sessions as
speaker of tho Illinois house OF repre-
sentatives. In 1904 he was elected
lieutenant governor. For several years
he has been the executive head OF the
Illinois state board Of charities.

Speaking of Colonel Roosevelt's de-
NAL Of having held up the prosecu-
ton of the harvester trust Senator
Hansbrough said:
LAS usual when Colonel Roosevelt
is brought face to face with certain
facts that make up the record of his
administration. he evades the issue
by giving confusing answer to SPECIFIC
charges. In the house April IL, Mr..
Campbell, whom the colonel has been
condemning in his Kansas speeches,
uses this language referring to the
colonel. Did you or did O not send
a note to h department of Justice
asking that further steps toward the
prosecution of the harvester trust be
supended?'
Roosevelt Docs Not Answer.
I'm a telegram to the colonel, Rep
resentative Gardner of Massachusetts
asked the. same question. In New
York York Wednesday the colonel
replied saying that he never sup
pressed a report on the harvester
trust. But he does not answer spe-
officially Mr.. Gardeners question nor
does he reply to Mr.. Campbell?
The essential point in this impor.
tant controversy is did the colonel out

later sent a note to Mr.. Bonaparte re.

there four or five years.
