Mr.. Shellabarger was one of the
members of the house committee
chosen to represent that body in the
impeachment trial of President
Andrew johnson before the Senate.
General Grant. when President, was
brought constantly into intimate re-
lations with Mr. Shellabarger and
learned to esteem the congressman
highly both for his personal and for
his intellectual qualifications.
Some time in June, 1896. spent an
hour or two with Judge Wilson in
his office at Washington, and he told
me many things of interest about his
old colleague and law partner.
"Shellabarger was very fond Of
General Grant" he said. He be-
lieved that General Grant was not
fully appreciated while serving in
the presidency. He often told me
that in private conversation General
Grant was as interesting a man as
he had ever conversed with.
II remember once hearing Shella-
barger say that he had on one occa-
sion abundant opportunity for learn

circulation that General Grant always
had to depend upon somebody else
than himself to write his messages,
OF. at least. so to revise Grants
rough drafts as to give them good
literary form, were absolutely incor-
rect.
81 do not now recall" said Judge
Wilson, what the precise measure
before Congress was, the considera-
ton of which gave to Shellabarger
the opportunity TO learn that Gen.
eral Grant was abundantly able to
write his own messages. The sub
ject had something to do with the re-
construction troubles in the South.
1 do recall that Congress proposed
to give the President power to sus-
pend the writ of habeas corpus, if in
his Judgment there were occasion for
this action, in some of the Southern
States where disorders were reported.
"Shellabarger told me that he was
one day asked to go and see Gem
eral Grant and to urge him to send

Most of us waste a good deal of
time trying to make others let us
alone that might have been better
devoted to putting ourselves into
straitjackets. If you have many enc
mics and few friends there's reason
for the condition. If it isn't sound
reason, based upon some sort OF
human service, you're a fool. There
something about you that's dead
wrong. You blame your associates
for hating you and wonder why every
mans hand is against you, but you
never guess the answer. Possibly it's
your mean disposition. The human
..briar bush has few friends. If you
sfairlv prickle with thorns you can't
Hexnect to be embraced. Once you get
rid of your thorns, you'll be surprised
sat the rapidity with which your
sunpopularity disappears. Cursing
luck is a particularly comforting pur-
shit of small minds A big mind
never found pleasure in 1t. Your
! luck is reflection. of your own
strength or weakness. Opposition
doesn't count. You were born into
world of struggle and should have
the strength to live in such world.
If your weaknesses cause stronger
men to impose upon you, If your I'm
reliability causes your neighbors to
distrust you, you have no quarrel
with luck. You should have an en-
nifty for yourself And you should
wreak vengeance upon yourself by
course of sprouts that will leave you
stronger and wiser. and in the end
happier.
