Blind Man Won
BY Child S Kindness.

And then when the blind man left the
hotel Nichols crowned his hospital bic
treatment of the blind man by refusing
to accept pay for his board. thinking at
that time that ne was but a poor old
man, with no money and no friends.
The blind man, however, declined to
accept the hotel mans generosity and
forced him to take pay.
To people in the little town the blind
man commented on the kindness of
Nichols and of his own fondness for
the little girl, remarking that Nichols
was one of the finest and best men with
whom he had ever come in contact.
The old man left the little town and
the incident passed. Nichols thought
no more of 1t and heard no more of his
blind friend until he was informed in
Birmingham of the $500 check and Of

Why Were No
Documents Demanded?

Why was not Mr. Archbold asked to
produce documents to establish the
truth of his testimony where the senate
knows perfectly well that documents
are not lacking to establish whatever is
true in this Standard Oil conspiracy?
Why was Mr. Archbold allowed to
leave the country when he had given
only immaterial, inconsequential and
largely untruthful testimony and when
he should have been held not only as
the main witness, but as the chief cor
ruptionist?
Why were not Senator Penrose and
other culpable United States senators
investigated as to their actual guilt in
