Excerpt from The Reign of Reason: A Treatise on Political Economy It is a difficult matter for one to talk of himself, for that reason this statement will be short. They say, I was born in Cambridge, Saline County, Mo., September 8, 1862. I do not remember ever seeing my father, for the reason, that very shortly after my advent, he took French leave, to help settle a little matter of unpleasantness that was on at that time. Missouri was a great place then, especially for hard times; some instances of which I very well remember, among them: That from the time I was about four years old, until I was seventeen, I never had a new hat or a new pair of shoes, in fact, was often short on old ones. However, when I was nineteen years old, there came to that little town a man, whose clothes fitted him, and he had a manner and bearing altogether different from what I had been accustomed to see, and I learned that he had been to the Lincoln Institute at Jefferson City. Up to that time, I had always thought I would try to keep away from that town; however, seeing this man, and learning of this new institution, I gathered courage enough to go there. So the fall of 1881 found me there - in the city I mean - I entered Lincoln Institute, and finished a four years course; the ways and means by which I made it, I will not stop to enumerate, suffice it to say, that although they were hard, they are pleasant to remember. In the fall of 1885, I entered the law department of Kansas University and finished in 1887, and came here to Kansas City, Kas., as soon as I could make it down here, and have been here ever since, where most of you who will read these lines, have seen and known me. I have always liked the idea of ascertaining the reason for anything and firmly believed, and still believe, that there is greater power and safety in reason, than there is in any, or all things else combined. It has been that idea that has prompted what I have said in these pages. I can hardly expect any one to think as much of them as I have. And if any one thinks enough of them to criticise them, rest assured I will not at all be displeased; but politely recalling your attention to my birthplace very likely, will want to know Your Reason.
