There probably has never been a man
who looked upon $4,000 with quite the
same emotions as those which filled the
breast Of Michael ]. Gill of St. Looee
when he saw that amount chalked up to
his credit in the office of the sergeant-at-
arms of the House. Gill. be it known, is
the man who journeyed here from ST.
Looee, and after months of desperate
work succeeded in prying l.. G. Dyer
from his seat in the House. There was
a lot of talk around here whether or not
the House was justified in ousting Dyer,
but that is beside the question In this
utterly truthful tale. All this has to do
with is what Gill thought when he got
that $12.50O. The money is the salary
due him as a congressman from the be-
ginning of this Congress. Dyer received
the same amount in monthly payments,
and the government loses by it.
Gill was poor plumber (Which is the
first time I ever heard of such thing)
and all he had when he came here was
house and $500 in the bank. That doesn
sound SO awful poor. does it? Yet
through with his case, which has con-
siderable to do with the way he felt
when he got that s12, 500 last week.

He has to get witnesses and go over and
over again all the ragtag and bohtail
testimony. stand up under cross-exami-
nations that had their origin in Gehenna,
and pay for the stenographer at the
same time Stenographers collect by the
word. In Gills case. his lawyers knew
that he had nothing but that $500 and
his house, and they asked his witnesses
the main questions. in order to save on
stenographers' fees but the opposition
unbuckled and sailed In with cross
examination which ate up dollars as II
they were shoveling them up with a
steam dredge. One of Oils witnesses
made a statement which resulted in a
cross-examination which cost Gill just
$500 1t was the plainest refutatlon OF
that old lie talk is cheap that you
could find in a days journey. Talk wash t
cheap to Gill. who would sit there and
see his $500 running out like the sand In
an hour glass. He had the thing down
SO fine that he knew the very word
which drained the last cent from his
bank account and made him mortgage
his home.
When that tragic word was spoken. Gill
went out and got a Job. The job was in
a glass works in or near Alexandria.
Also his son, Joe went out and hooked

Joe is a natural musician, yet the best
he could do was to snatch a dollar or
