Brown s Job

brown is gone, and many men
IN the trade are wondering who
is going to get Browns job.
There has been considerable
speculation about this. Brown
job was reputed to be good job.
Browns former employers, wise,
grey-eyed men, have had to sit
still and repress amazement as
they listened to bright, ambi-
tious young men and dignihed
old ones seriously apply for
Browns job.
Brown had a big chair and a
wide, flat-topped desk covered
with sheet of glass. Under the
glass was a map of the United
States. Brown had a salary of
thirty thousand dollars year.
And twice a year Brown made a
"trip to the coast" and called
on every one Of the firms dis
tributors.
He never tried to sell any
thing. Brown wasn't exactly in
the sales department. He visited
with the distributors, called on
a few dealers, once in a while
made a little talk to a bunch of
statesmen. Back at the office he
answered most of the important
complaints, although Brown
job wasn't TO handle complaints.
Brown wasn't in the credit
department either, but vital
questions of credit usually got
to Brown, somehow or other,
and Brown would smoke and
talk and tell a Joke, and untwist
his telephone cord and tell the
credit manager what to do.
Whenever Mr.. Wythe, the
impulsive little president, work
ing like beaver, would pick up
a bunch of papers and peer into
a particularly troublesome and
messy subject, he had a way of
saying, "What does Brown say?
What does Brown say? What
the hell does Brown say?-Well,
why don't you do it, then?''
And that was disposed.
Or when there was difficulty
that required quick action and

would confound his enemies. The sec
ond thought to resist arrest and trial
by calling out the National Guard is
SAID to have stunned the Governor
admirers and many of his Chicago
friends fear that If writ Of habeas
corpus is. resorted to the people down
state will lose their confidence in the
Governor.
Confers With Advisers
The Governor, accompanied by three
men who were supposed to be city de-
tcctives, visited this morning the law
Office of Daniel j. Schuyler and re-
manned there more than an hour. 1t
was said that Corporation Counsel Eft
telson was present during part of this
conference. Later the Governor went
back to the Great Northern Hotel and
was closeted with number Of his law
yers and political advisers.
Governor Small refused to receive
newspaper men. A few close friends
were admitted but otherwise his time
was taken up with lawyers and politi-
clans until he went TO Attorney Fink 8
home.
Politicians around the hotel were not
clear as to what would be the next
step if the Governor does not return

ty Sheriff refuses to bring his wrts to
Chicago, but several men expressed the
belief that such a contingency may in
volve the running of the state gov
ernment from Chicago for long time.
That Governor Small has abandoned
all plans for resistance to arrest is the
belief of the authorities here. They
base this opinion on the failure of the
Governor to bring about the serving of
the warrants in Chicago, where it was
the intention to institute habeas corpus
proceedings. In case Governor Small
is arrested sheriff's bond will be
used, as Judge Smith adjourned court
Yesterday until the September term,
when attorneys for Governor Small will
indicate the course they expect to pur-
sue in his defense.

to fire the superintendent of

Brown knew the business he
was in. He knew the men he
worked with. He had a whole
lot of sense, which he apparently
used without consciously sum-
moning his Judgment to his assis-

Brown is gone, and men are
now applying for Brown S job.
Others are asking who is going

Men who are not the son of
Brown mother, nor the hus-

sorrows nor felt his joys, men
