Excerpt from Money in Reds This text, full of truth and consolation, has been a great help to me for several years back, as only those driven by necessity accomplish real work in this world. Blessed and useful is the lash that drives us to better deeds. Sometimes the lash strikes from within, and some times from without. The study of human nature, in every day walks of life, is more interesting to me than most vaudeville performances on the stage. There is a natural tendency in the human race, like sheep to follow the leader, and often I fear there is about as much thought behind it. The number of real men that will stand for what they know to be right against public opinion is very small, and should be appreciated. While I consider nearly every poultry editor in the country is my friend and all fair-minded ones have admitted they never received any complaints from any of their subscribers but what I made good promptly, still, when Grant M. Curtis called them to gether, after I was' pushed over Niagara Falls, and malic iously and falsely stated that he had received a wheel barrow full of complaints against me, there was no one that had independence enough to call his bluff and deny what they must have known to be false. Now that I have heard all the inside particulars about this poultry magnate meeting, and all the poultry papers that I care -to advertise with have asked for my advertise ment, I will state for the information of those interested that I stopped my advertising with Curtis' paper before the A. P. A. Meet was ever held, as it was not paying, so he never had the opportunity to refuse my advertisement; hence his apparent reform loses much of its true ring, and personal grudge appears very strong to any fair minded person, and my daily mail proves the country is full of this class.
