While in Chicago on Christmas day Will Rlchmire engaged in conversation with a fine looking, stylishly dressed man on a street car. During the conversation he made himself known. It was Tom McCoy, ex-banker and politician. He looked the picture of health and prosperity and said that he was speculating at the stock yards and doing well. In other words he is one of the multitude who live off the labor of other people. A speculator produces nothing, be lives well at the expense of someone else. The depositors in the McCoy bank have ceased speculating. They know exactly what the genial Tom fixed up for them.—Benton County Review. Butter Wrappers for sale at The Republican Office.
