. THE OTHER FELLOW.
Charles Magoon , late of Ii n-
coIn , has been made thc 'attornc ?
for thc government in thc Panama -
ma canal mattcr. \Vc used to
. know 1\Iagoon when he lived in
. .Lincoln" , . and wc didn't think a
: great deal of him. vVc thought
him an ordinary lawyer and an
ordinary fellow , and right here
is.whcrc : wc were w"ong. Hon.
.
. George Mickcljohn , when he be-
came assistant secretary of war ,
secured an appointment for Ma-
goon in a minor position in thc
legal department of thc war officc.
Tile next thing wc heard of him
hc had written a brief on thc le-
gal status of our insular possession -
sion ( Phiilipinc Islands ) which
attracted thc attention of thc legal -
gal fraternity of America , and
was the foundation of every
speech made on thc subject in the
senate of thc United Statcs. And
now he has been promoted to thc
' 1-t. . high position above stated.
\V were wrong about Iagoon ,
and are very sorry our judgment
was so poor.
. tt < 1'oesr.'t pay to be so vastly
superior anyway. There is embryonic -
I bryonic greatness all about us.
I f Many a peanut vendor has nar-
i row1y missed being a great man.

If you and I had stood at thc
"
street corner in thc city of Bethlehem -
1chcm some two thousand years
ago , wc mifiglit have seen a brown
haired boy following \ a carpenter
to his work and thought Nothing
of it. Yet thc boy with thc
brown hair was to become thc
one figure in all' history and thc
Saviour of thc world.
If you and I had been lost in
thc wi1ds. of a Kentucky forest
about cighty-cight years ago , wc
would have seen an angular , for-
10m , sallow . ugly face little
waif , clothed in thc garments of
poverty and adorned with a coon
skin cap. If wc had given
such a child any thought would
have been prompted by pity , yet
thc ugly boy with thc coon skin
cap one day became thc loftiest
figure in American history and
thc patron saint of a freed
pcop1c.
Had you and I stood on thc
streets of hc city of St. Louis
but a few years prior to thc war
of thc rebellion , wc might have
seen a stern , morosc man of
stocky build , clothed in jumper
and overalls , with his trousers
tucked in his boots , trying to sell
his load of wood for a good price ,
and wc would have devoted about
as much attention to him as wc
do to similar figures seen on our
streets every day. Yet thc wood
hauler became the greatest military . -
tary chieftain of the world , and
lived to receive thc undying grat-
itudc of a rc-unitcd people , and
thc persoda1 homage of every
civilized : ruler of carth.
It docsn't pay to be so vastly
supcrior. The fact that you may
sec little or nothing in a man ,
may not prove his lack of ability
so much as it proves a defective
cycsight. Give thc other fellow
his opportunity and hc may beat
you , who atc more fortunately sit-
uatcd , a city block.
\Vc rejoice , not in l\lagoons
good fortune , but rather in thc
fact that his chance came to him
to do a man's work and to live up
to thc possibilities of his.abilitics.

makc. Folk , Dcnccn and Jerome
arc young mcn and never before
have three such prosecutors been
pestering crime and criminals as
these three youngsters arc doing.
Dcncen has been rewarded by a
nomination for governor of thc ,
state of Illinois , and a like honor
is about to bc conferred on Folk
in thc state of Missouri.
It is an encouraging sign to
sec thc people indorsing men who
have dared oppose crimc in high
p1aces. It speaks well for thc
future of this government to see
the great mass 01 voters demanct-
ing thc promotion of young men
and that responsibility shall be
entrusted only to those who in-
sist on purity , honesty and jus-
ticc in public as well as in private
lifc. America will not go far
wrong , ncithcr will its mission ! he
thwarted under the leadership of
thc young mien who arc now in
control of its governmental func-
tions.
