Herbert S. Hadley, the eminent ex-
Governor of Missouri, has a grew

standing looking at nothing for an
hour and half" and then when the
portrait was painted and the necktie
was green he couldn't have one with
blue polka-dot effect painted in it's
place to resemble the tie that was
sported in the jaunty likeness of the
Colonel made by Sargent in 1908. "She
said she could not paint in the blue
tie" reposes the man from Missouri
Il said, Didn't Sargent paint Colonel
Roosevelt wearing a blue polka-dot
tie?' and she replied, You understand

Of Them resulted in Lormer's expul-
sion That degradation was accom-
plishcd in spite of the fact that many
OF the members had not heard or read
the testimony in either proceeding.
Senator Johnston of Alabama said that
not more than 20 senators had done
so. Senator Dillingham; of Vermont,
after the most painstaking study, gave
judgment for Lorimer. The impress
sion produced at the time was that
Lorimer was convicted outside the
senate chamber, condemned by the
public, and court uniformed as to
the evidence pronounced judgment in
accordance with the popular will
Under the circum stances Lorimer
plan to seek vindication at the polls
is easily to be understood. His long
experience has taught him that the
more violent popular denunciation of
politician is the quicker it subsidies.
THE personal charities, the early strug-
giles he recited in vain before the SEN
ste make powerful appeal to the cleo
torate; the payment OF his debts will
build reputation for him in many quar-
tiers: and a martyr can easily count on
a following.
Moreover, if Lorimer cannot get
back into the senate, he may at least
be able to thwart the ambitions of his
enemies, and in that he would find
balm for lis wounds.

not forget the conditions that existed
in this country under the new tariff
prior to the war. Production had de-
creased; business was languishing:
new enterprises were not undertaken:
instead of expansion there was cur

His counselor was Clifton T. A. French,
young attorney of our race whose
ability as practitioner is attracting the
attention Of the legal profession here
in way that is causing old timers In
the profession to look well to their lau-
rels.
Upon the completion of the testimO-
ny Of the complaining witness at the
trial in question novel point Of law
was being argued by the counsel for
the people and the defense when the
latter created much CONSERVATION in
the court by the production Of evidence
Of great weight and at the same time
made motion to dismiss the complaint.
The court Immediately granted the mo.
ton with full vindication, and the pre-
siding Judge paid Attorney French a
fine personal compliment.
1t is high tribute to the legal ability
Of this young sprig Of the law to be
called to the bench by presiding Judge
Rosalsky (who is austerity personified
and complimented and praised in full
some phrase on his sound knowledge Of
legal procedure in a case Of such vital
Importance to the defendant and his
counsel. His course clearly indicated
that he had read the law to some pur.
pose and that he saw In this particu-
lar case an opportunity to put 1t to the
test.
As soon as he made the motion to
dismiss and produced certain evidence
, to Justify his action in defense Of his
client the learned Judge at once saw
that he could do no other than to dis
miss the complaint. Counselor French
had scored. The Judge realized it and
the prosecuting attorney reluctantly
admitted that he was defeated-out-
pointed, licked Ito a frazzle" by Ne
gro attorney who understood what he
wanted and got 1t. The judge and
the Negro's ability and then extended
their congratulations to the young dis
ciple Of Blackstone who had won a le-
gal victory of which many an old vet
eran practitioner at the bar would have
been proud to have to his credit. But
this is not the only legal skirmish In
which Mr.. French has engaged. An
other case in which he secured an ac-
quittal for his client was that Of The
People versus William Andersons
which was bitterly contested at every
point by this brilliant young man. and
ended In the freeing Of his client. Mr.
French's practice covers both the civil
and criminal courts. ana thus far he
has been successful In all the cases In
which his firm has appeared.
Mr.. French received the degree Of
B. A. from New York university and
from Columbia the degrees Of NJ. A..
LII B. and IL. NJ. In addition, he has
completed all the resident work for the
degree Of Ph. d. and has only to write
