Skinner Tarbox, therefore, being at least whole

of availability his cause has been enthusiastically

the Sucking Grampus Club Its confidently as

But, OH the other hand, the Skipper has not been
regularly nominated and therefore, according to
some high authorities in these matters he cannot

OF the Squid the Pickerel party
Nobody is hardy enough to answer this query
and both the Squds and the Pickeres flap a very
awkward fin about the matter when it is brought
home to them. The Pickeres say that the Skip

Squid. Contrawlse, the Sqnids affirm that the
Skipper is not lobstersmasheI, and therefore can
not be a Pickerel! You may conceive OF the puz-

Skipper Tarkox is a candidate for Mayor or not,
nor whose candidate he is likely to be
Some of our knowing-ones propose general
