There's suthin pecoolyerly fitten in the cheef-

That's the dodge for yoo. We haint got the
academic grove to walk pensively in at the
twilite hour, musin onto the evenly past,
but we kin easily move that corner stun into
one. That corner stun is ez easily shifted
ez Democracy.
There's another reason why yoo shood do

Look at wat miscellaneous educashen hez
done for the North. Moo England is cloud

swept over the North, and all over that
country its drops hev fell in the shape NV
schools, academies and colleges and sich.
Consistently there's no Democracy ther, and
the heavier the shower a locality received
the less Democracy their is. In yoor hands
itwood be safe. Niggers woodent get it nor
poor whites, but the sous NV the chivalIy, uv
the dominent race, they alone wood tread
the fowery path with yoo. ll4
We haven't the society at the Cross Roads
in which yoo hev bin accustomed to move;
but wat NV that? Let it be known that yoo
are here, and the Democrisy NV the North
will make this place NV summer resort and
Nv winter recreashen. This will be tner
