legislative composition taken from the
State Re0isssr. the writer, (Mr. Gaylord, .
bitter radical from Floyd,) attempted csr-
tain style Of facetiousnsss and irony that
the true friends Of both Mr.. Rohlss and Mr.
Davis will fully appreciate at their true
value:
PEN PoRrnAIrs OF TIM MEN ov Scorr
IN rns HousE.-Editers State Register -
No county in the State was more fortunate
in her choice Of Representatives than the
county Of Scott. Messrs. Rohlfs and Davis
are ever on the alert, and watch the public
interests with vigilant eye.
Rohlfs is an old member, . German by
birth. His language is broken and musical
in the extreme. He 10 not one Of the 'noisy
Members but one who can make . most
speech, and one who Commands the respect
and confidence of the entire House. He 10
not only a wcll-educated man but man OF
great energy, and one who has correct ideas
Of right and wrong. Having once been .
foreigner. he sympathizes with his country
men, and fails in no particular to guard
their interests and their honor. Not only
his German but his American friends have
great reason to BE- proud Of him.
Hon. N. G. Davis 10 in the Legislature for
the first time, and 10 said to be man Of
immense wealth. In mind as we'll as in stet-
ure he is . large man. He has IN honest
and pleasing countsnance, mild, quick and
piercing eye = massive forehead ard ven
erable, commanding appearance. Although
he is rich, he is NOT naughty. He sees
everything, knows everything, end plsas-
e. everybody. When circumstances de-
mand it, he, too, can maks a spsech
and his fiuency Of language-his ear
nest eloqusnoe = hi. power Of oratory
mot only charm but amaxs. When he
tises to speak every noise is hushed, and
every eye 10 rivitsd upon him. He was
elected to his present position BY the 'pso-
pies party and his 10y atty is unqusstion-
ed and unqusstionable. The patriotic
blood Of the Davises stained mot only the
bsttls-islds Of the Revelation but the 6elds
Of carnags in 1912.
In 1919 when the clarion trumpet Of
war was sounded, N. G. Davis, like his
loyal ancestor, rushed to the rescue and
the front, and proud an insolsnt fee Was
forced 10 retire before his svsngine blade.
Mr.. Davis 10 most excellent specimen Of .
self-mads man.
Such . man will shine through the
clouds Of advsrsity, that somssimss sssn "a
lower ever. and hover around him. Al
we'll might man undertake to smoth-
er the ssuptions Of burning volcano with
his hand, - to crush such man Or i'm

nown. Whatever he undertakes he &C
complishes, and we're he to aspire to high.

A Smart Dog.

A shepherd once, to prove the
qnickness Of his dog, who was
lying by the fire in the house
where We were talking. said to
me, in the middle..Jfof a sen.
tence OF something else, 81 am
thinking, sir, the COW is IN the
potatoes - " Though he pur.
poselv laid no stress ON these
words, but said them in quiet,
plconcerned tone. of voice, the
dog, which appeared to be
asleep, immediately jumped
up, and leaping' through the
open window, scrambled up
the turf roof of the house, from
which he could, see the potato
field. He then (not seeing the
COW there ran and looked into
the barn where she was, and,
finding that all was right, came
back to the house, After a
short time the shepherd said
the same words again, and the
dog repeated his look out; but
nthe false alarm being a third
tine given, the dog got up, and
wagging his tale, looked his
in the face with so com.
icar an expression of interoga,
tion that he could not help
laughing loud at him, on which,
with a slight growl, he laid
himself down in his warm cor
ner with an offended air, and
as if determined not to be
made afool Of again. '4
