Mr. Knox was a great corporation cor-poration lawyer, but made enough money In hlH practice so that he could afford to quit. And when he quit he quit. He went clear over from the corporation cor-poration side to the side of the people. He has done noble service on that side, too, since President McKinley called him Into his administrative family.
