\ Coop POLITICAL JoKE.-A good story is
told of the towns of Lisbon and Lyman, a,
the late election in New Hampshire. Lisbon
is Republican :own, and Lyman has been
Democratic. The Democratic leaders in the
latter town thought they could spare two or
three voters, SO as to carry Lisbon for the
Democrats.and they accordingly moved some
two or three, just long enough before the
election to entitle them to vote. The result
was that Lyman elected Republican Repre-
sentative. and Lisbon two, much to the dis
may OF the astute political managers who
had thus over-reached ,hemselves.-Boston

If we mistake not some of these delegates
figured in the State Democratic Convention
in 1919, which adopted resolutions to the ef-
feet that the Democratic party was the true

except that relating to the abolition of slave
