“You sure you left that paring knife?” said Schmitz. Here I sit in all the peace and stillness of the Cape Cod coast, days filled with only such work as I love, and play aplenty, healthy youngsters frolicky about me, the warmest of friends close by. The larder is stocked with good food, good books are on the shelves, each day starts and ends with a joyous feeling about the heart.
It was, of course, Kelly's fault for leaving so much stuff there when he went at 3. And Kelly was gruff as a bear next day. Evidently the Big Boss spoke to him about sending stuff upstairs after the lunch rush was over. He almost broke the plates hurling things out of the ice box at 2.30. And the names he called Schmitz I dare not repeat. He swore and he swore and he swore!
Only it was congenital with Schmitz that he never really showed approval of anything or anybody. Schmitz would stroll over from where he was trying to keep busy watching everyone at once, enter the very confines of my compartment, and stand over me while I sliced that Swiss cheese.
"Oh, Ruef's too smart for Langdon," said Aleta. "Every Sunday night he, Schmitz and Big Jim Gallagher hold a caucus. Gallagher is Ruef's representative on the Board. They figure out what will occur at Monday's session of the Supervisors. It's all cut and dried." "It can't last long," Frank mused. "They're getting too much money.
It was quite an adventure. Thoughtfully he gazed at the banners flung across Market street: "VOTE FOR EUGENE SCHMITZ, "The Workingman's Friend." That was Abraham Ruef's adventure. He wondered how each of them would end. Ruef swept the field with his handsome fiddler. All "South of Market street" rallied to his support.
Some of the newspapers had changed by almost imperceptible degrees, were veering toward the cause of the defense. Then, like a thunderbolt, in January, 1908, came news that the Appellate Court had set aside the conviction of Ruef and Schmitz. Technical errors were assigned as the cause of this decision. The people gasped. But some of the newspapers defended the Appellate Judges' decree.
Just his luck to come back a conquering hero." But Schmitz fared badly at the Capital, whence Roosevelt dispatched a "big stick" message to the California Legislature.
He pointed a finger straight at Nickie, lurched towards him, crossed the room in a stagger, and drove his inquiring digit against the mysterious visitor. The mysterious visitor was solid. Schmitz was beaten. "Sharlie," he said, "is it true dot you vos, or is it true dot you aind't?" Nickie offered him the bottle in a friendly way, and Schmitz took it and drank.
Yesterday it was reported that General Schmitz had betrayed us; to-day it is an actress who has arrested a spy whose cook was on intimate terms with a cook of the member of the Government. Why these reports? Because the Government has no moral support, and no one feels confidence in it.
Schmitz, being a dutiful wife who has stood Mr. Schmitz at least, we surmise, some seventeen years, replied to such comments of her sixteen-year-old daughter, “Hush, Freda!” At five minutes to five Schmitz graciously told me I might go up to my supper, though the law in the statute books stood five.
