CASE OF J.

is Doing Some Plain TalUnj
. About Matters and Things. .
The statement in yesteiday's Citizen
.that J. Wiley Shook was to leave the
internal revenue service created a great
deal of interest because everything that
the statesman from Haywood does, at
tracts the attention of the public
"Mr. 'Shook does things in a strenu
ous way and his remarks are invariably
emphatic and vigorous. The Roosevel
tian policy of making "Life, Death, and
that vast forever one Chinese gong,' is
something of Colonel ShookV policy,
but doubtless this coupling of his name
with that of Theodore's is not exactly
) leasing to J. Wiley. In fact from
some casual remarks he made yesterday
he is not in with the administration.
Certainly he is not in with the Internal
Revenue Commissioner Yerkes. "That
tack-headed Kentucky turncoat, ' and
the remarks made ablout the said yarkes
were full of fire.
'Is Yarkes the man
who raised so much
of a row in Kentucky?" was asked ( Mr.
Shook. ; '
"Raised a row?" querried J. Wiley.
"He raised a row? Why.that fellow: ran for
governor on the Republican ticket just "to
let his relative Beckham get elected on
the other side.f A pusilanimous nobody.'
But Mr. Shook is resigned to fate. He
did have an l article written out which

congressional race but would "leave hair1
