Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some of Our People He came in when there was a lull in the work, as he usually did, for he knew opportunity. Taking his seat in the chair that tilted back, he soon had his cigar lighted and he was one of us again. "It´s no use, boys, I can´t stay away. When a man touches printer´s ink he is charmed for life - he may wander off but he is bound to return, like Colonel Jones who goes down in his private car once a year just to get a drink of hard cider from the old barrel in the barn." The Major had been a great editor in the glorious days when the editor wrote one epoch-making editorial early in the week and then wandered among the meeting places of men to hear it talked about. Thus had come a wide circle of acquaintances and the call of his party and his election to Congress, where he served with enough success to perpetuate himself as an officeholder for many years afterwards.
