b. So you go for old Rough and Ready and no
body else, in your section Of country.
| Q. Yes sir. He's the only man for the present
crisis The only man whose election will heal past
differences the country from the grasp of the
political gnmblers, who for twenty years. have revel-
led the spells of oficegrown sleek and fat, lazy
and indoentcareiess of all save their own persons
and who, to maintain and perpetuate their sway,
have plunged the country into an unnecessary war
upon weak and bowerless co,lntry-spent millions
of the peoples treasure and caused rivers of blood to
flow. He is the only man who can surely put an
end TO this unnatural state Of things bring about an
honorable peace, and hasten return to the pure,
simple, republican government Of Washington and
n Jefferson. 47, i5d.

Of hungry wolves, they stick their noses in the air
