Feels Ill-Treated. "I have broken no law of the land, and I feel that I have been most un justly treated for eomethlne; I can not help," said Krantz. "The world, I think, ewes' every man a living:, and I work sixteen hours dally to obtain one. I . think this rather a hieh-handed proceeding: in a land where every man should be accorded the privilege of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness while Injuring- no one.

"That Is a total of 51.032 a year, or over 18 per cent profit on bis Investment, which- could hardly be called unfair.
