factor of kir. Lavey.' But the story Is
best told In "Pat's" own words, com
ing as they did this morning, from a
full heart, while he read and reread
the letter from hi old-time friend,
"Just IK year ago," said Mr.
Lavey, "I arrived direct from Ireland.
II was born In a suburb of the city
of Dublin) and Joined relative of
mine In the little town of Burllngame,
Kan., where my parent yet reside.
This country was Indeed a revelation
lo me at that time, and no doubt I
was also a revelation to the people of
that small town, because I wore the
native garb of an Irish lad and' was
anxious to see everything there was
to be seen. In one day, :: ,

became acquainted was . Orln P.
Spauldlng, who was one of the fore
most business men of the town,, and
noted for his generosity. He started
me in business selling the old Kansas
City Time. fixed me up a uniform
and cap with the name of the paper
across the front, and I waa the proud
est 'kid' In the world. I could alng
some good Irish songs tn those days,
and a I used to throw in a song and
dance with every paper, business was
always good. Mr. Spauldlng was al
ways like a father to me and I felt
that 'the American people were the
best on earth, and have never changed
my mind.
'Finally Mr. Spauldlng went away
to Texas. I kept track of him for a
year and then lost him, but last Sun
day, while looking over the Oregonlan
I ran across his advertisement, and
Immediately wrote to learn If It was
my old friend and benefactor. I -re-Jcelved
his answer this morning, and
, I am going to visit him as aoon as pos
sible. "I believe that every boy In the
world remembers gratefully the men
who are kind to him during his youth.
I have never In the intervening 11
year forgotten a single one of the
many favors Mr. Spauldlng conferred
upon mo as a boy, the good advice
gavo me. and the fatherly sympathy
he so freely showered upon mo when
I told him my troubles. Tills letter
tells me that he Is the same big
hearted fellow of 20 years ago, and
I know that he must have hundred

After a moment's pause, Mr. Lavey
continued: . - .
'. "It there 1 any satisfaction to a
man In the knowledge' that"" through
hlg kindness to a boy, that boy'wa?
started In life straight and square and
(hat In after life that boy always re
membered him with true gratitude,
then O. P. SpauldinK should be hapiy
In the thought; for to him and his big
heart I owe k debt I can never repay.
And," concluded Lavey, "there Is an
other lesson Taught by this Incident.
It was an advertisement that reunited
us after 21 years separation. I still
maintain that advertising always pays
and always will pay; If not in one
way. It will In another."' The reporter
left Lavey reading again ' the lettei
from his friend and benefactor, a
smile . of happiness and ' gratitude
spread from ear to ear. ' ' "

LANDIS FINE WAS WRONG
(Continued from page 1.)
the Standard pf Indiana, was owned
principally by the new eJraey corpora
tion. That corporation waa not be
fore the court for trial.
"No monarch, no parliament, no
tribunal of western Europe for cen
turies ha pretended to have the right
to punish except after due trial. Can
that rightfully be done here' on the
basis of the Judge' personal belief
that the party deserved marked pun
ishment? If that If so, it Is because
the man who happen to be Judge is
above the law."
The ducNIon handed down was
unanimous.
The opinion declares that Landl?
erred In excluding the testimony ,of
Holland, a government witness, who
wished to change his former testimony
In which he stated he did not remem
ber tilling anyone that the six cent
commodity rate sheet had been filed
with the InterKtate commls.'ilon. The
decision says the finding of the loner
court is reversed bi-causu "the' evidence
thus proffered was excluded by the
court for the sole rcaxon that, as a
matter of fact, the court not the Jury
found that the sheet containing this
six cent commodity rate had not been
filed with the Interstate commission.
The Jury should have decided this,
nt the Judge. The opinion states
that Landts erred In ruling that Ig
norance of the legal tariff rate on the
part of the shipper accepting rebate
may not be pleaded as a defense.'
