Vbe Memoirs of

ROBERT D d If -1 dot Tne old man would have enjoyed this. But. Van, take my advice and stay out There ain't much In that political business. Stay with 'us and make some money. Right now Is coming the biggest time this country has ever seen, and we are the crowd that's got the combination to the safe. These New York financiers think they are pretty near the whole thing, but I reckon we are going to give even them a surprise." With this final boast he got Into bis cab and drove off. The day was brilliantly sunny, and the street was alive with gay people. What the Irishman said was true I felt It in the snnny air. The greatest period of prosperity this country had ever seen was Just starting. It was the time when two or three good gamblers could pick up any kind of property, give It a fine name, print a lot of pretty stock certificates and sell their gold brick to the first comer. The people were crazy to spend their money. It was a great time! Nevertheless, at the bottom of all this craze was a sore feeling that all was well with us that ours was a mighty people. And that was about right. Well. I loved my country in my own way. and I bad all the money I knew what to do with. Why not take a seat In "the millionaire's club." as the newsiaper called that honorable body, the United States senate? Before I left for the west the family sailed for Europe. Little May and Sister Sarah, as we called the girls, bad persuaded their mother to take them over to Paris for a lark. May. who was thirteen, was running the party. She was a tall, lively girl, with black hair and eyes, and was thought to re semble me. The other was quieter la ner ways, more lute Saran. We nau lost one little boy .the summer before. which was a great sorrow to us all. The older boy. who was at school preparing for college, took after his mother toe. He was a pleasant mannered chap, with a liking for good clothes and other playthings. I did not reckon that he ever would be much of a business man. The merning that the steamer sailed Sarah was nervous over starting, but May settled her in a corner of the deck and got her a wrap. Then the girls went to say good by to some friends. " "Van," Sarah said to me when we were alone. She hesitated a moment, then went on timidly. "If anything should happen to us. Van. there's one thlng""Notblng Is going to happen! Not unless yon lose your letter of credit or the girls ran off with you." I Joked. "There's one thing I want to speak about seriously. Van. Ifs May and WllL" She paused timidly. "Well?" "Can't yen do something to make them feel differently? "I gness not. I've tried my best." "I knew they are poor, and Will's In bad health, too quite sick." "How did you know that?1 "Oh, I saw Msy once before I left They are In Chicago again. After a time I said: "You knew I weald give half of my money not to have it so, but It's no nao talking. They wouldat take a cent from sac Sarah sighed. "But couldn't you get Will a place somewhere without sis knowing about bow it cam?' TH try my best," I said sadly. Then It was tome to leave the steamer. The girls came and kissed mo goodby. hanging a boat my neek atasl making me promise to write and to come over for them later. Sasah raised her veil as I loaaetl down to

The people cholo What the legislator of a great tate represent The Stratus lobby PubUc njfiniott pro and oonAn unflattering mcavrtpUun of myself Co boner' confidence On Vie btUXtoard. Popular oratory 1 dtnover my brother in strange oompawyl do seme talking on my own acenuntLn organ of MA and criticism Turned crank. mANE DROTJND was right about old Senator Parkinson. lie came home to die early a the fall and faded away lm a couple of months afterwaod. The political pot at the capital of the state then began to bum In a lively fashion. It was suspected that the governor himself wsnted to succeed the late senator, and there wore on or two congressmen and a Judge whose friends thought tbey wore of senatorial else. That was the talk en the surface and In the papers, but the situation was vary diffeteat underneath. The legislature might bo said, ha general way, to represent the people of the state of Illinois, but It represented also the railroad to teres, the traction and gas interests and the packers, and when it earns to a matter of Importance st pretty generally did what It was to4d by its real bosses. This time it was told to put mo la the senate la place of the late senator, and it obeyed orders after a thae. Carmtcbael was honest with me and stuck to his agreement to use the Strauss lobby In the legislature In ray behalf. Of course the papers la Chicago howled, all those that badsrt their mouths stopped with the right cake. The three largest papers couldn't ho reached by our friends in any way. but their scoring did little harm. They had up again the story of Judge Garretson and the bonds of the London and Chicago concern. But the story was getting a little hazy in men's mem ories, and that kind et talk Is psssed around so often when a man runs for office in our country that it hasn't much significance. We did not even think it worth while to answer It Be sides, to tell the truth, we bad nothing much to say. Our policy was of nec sity what Slocum sarcastically describ ed as "dignified silence." When my name began to be beard at Springfield more and more Insistently, the Chicago Thunderer came out with a terrific roast editorially: "Who is this follow E. V. Harring ton, who has the presumption to look lustfully on the chair of our late hon orable senator? Eighteen years ago Harrington was driving a delivery wagon for a packing firm, and there are today on the west side retail marketmea who remember his calls at their places. We believe that bis first rise in fortune came when In some tricky way he got hold of a broken down sausage plant which ho sold later to the redoubtable Strauss. But It was not until the year Da. when, the notorious American Meat Products company was launched, that Barring too emerged from the obscurity of the stockyards. That corporation, conceived hi fraud, promoted by bribery, was the chad of his fertile brain. Not co a oat with tbto onto Involved In railroad promotion In the southwest, and he and bis man Friday. Sloevta. were celebrated as the most

bles ever soon to the experienced state of Texas. "What wfl Harrington ttprwt n the senate, assuming that ho will be able to buy his way there? WTO. he represent the great state of Illinois, the state of Lincoln, of Douglas, of Oglesby? He will represent the corrupt VlUer and the traction Interests of Chicago, the Infamous Dosserand and the gas gang aboTe all. he will represent the packers combine Joe Strauss, Jenka, big John CanulchseL. . These citutena. who are secretly preparing to perpetrate the greatest piece of robbery this country has ever witnessed, propose to sest Harrington In the United 8tatea senate as their personal representative. Can the degradation of that once honorable body bo carried to a greater depth? It was not a flattering description of myself, but Tom Stevens, the proprietor of the Thunderer, always hated

Strauss and his crowd, and the papers bad to say something. To offset thst dose, the Vermilion County Herald printed a pleasant eulogy describing me as a type of the energy and ability of our country "the young man of farmer stock who bad entered the great city without a dollar and had fought his way up to leadership in the flnanclal world by bis will and genius for commerce, sucu practical men, who have had training and experience In large affairs, are the suitable representatives of a great commercial people. The nation Is to bo congratulated on securing the services of men of Mr. Harrington'e ability, who could with so much more proa to themselves continue in the career of high flnanco. The only trouble with this puff was that It was composed hi the otnee of my lawyers and paid for at high rates. But so tar as affecting the result the Thunderer and the Yersailkm County Herald wore about on a par. The order had gone out from headquarters that I was to be sent to the senate to take Parkinson's vacant seat and unless a cyclone swept the country members off their feet to the senate I should go. AU that I had to do was to wait the final roll call and pay the bills. My old. tried counselor, Jaffrey Slocum. was managing this campaign for ma We could not use him at Springfield, however, for by this time ho was too well known as one of the shrewdest oorporatton lawyers la the west He lesreMBtsd too United Metals trust; ameag other corpora tlena, and hsd done some lively lobbying for them of late. He was a rich man now and weighed several stone more than he dht when ho and I were living at Ma Piemen's joint Ho was married and had a nice wife, aa ambitious woman, who knew what bar husband was worth. She might push him to New York or Washington before she was done.
