bar of the State before he wa.
rled into politics. He waE
ognized as a very good jury law
r, and the jhdges say they liked
o listen to his arguments because
of his lucid method of presentation
He camte back to Lincoln from
two terms in congress with hi
practice somewhat demoralized, but
in the two years between then and
his notmination for the presidency
he had more than regained the lost
ground. Since 1896 he had done
very little law work, and be definite
ly abandoned it in 1897.
The colonel's ability as a money
maker was demonstrated, after his
first defeat, by the success of his
book. Additional evidence was
given when he began the ptblication
of his newspaper.
With sublime confidenceOin his
own powers, lie disdained the advice
to secure a practical newspaper man
as his business manager. He instal
led his brother in that post, but he
himself has been the man behind
the project. Without the aid or
counsel of men experienced in news
paper circulation departments he
secured a paid up circulation of 25,
000 weekly before the first issue wa
printed. When it came out lie had
almost doubled that number.
Since theii each month has seer
a steady growth. Predictions tc
the effect that his success would I
ephemeral were disregarded ald
time has proved his Wisdon. H<
insisted then that the demand foi
his paper would not abate in year:
to such an extent as to compel it:
abandonment. -le argued that ther<
are enough Democrats interested it
what lie considers the vital prin
ciples of Democracy to preserve t<
him a substantial subscription lis
for years.
His business far-sightedness wa:
demonstrated again in the schem
that he at once put into operatiot
as soon as success was assured. A
editor of the paper he draws a salar:
of $5,ooo a year. The remainde
of the profits of the eiterprise ar
invested, largely in govermnen
securities, in what lie calls a trus
fund for his subscribers.
The purpose of this is to providi
,i-e paper with an income permanen
in its character, so as to insure it:
life for an indefinite number o
years. In other words, lie has pro
vided for the eternal publication o
The Co .unoner without any draii
upon his other resources, eveni
the subscription list dwindles to no
thing.
