gl0riouser than ever we had antioipatsu.
Eighty thousand majority is q big thing,
and we knowd IL, but we felt that the eye
OF the Dimocrisy wuz onto as, aud we 90

Dimocrisy NV the North to set em e1-

Smilin benignantly onto EN-, ez Scymore

The elecshun went off magnificently
Never did | see in all my experience, wich

for him, in wich he wuz assisted by the
entire balance NV the Corners. The
wretched man paid heavy penalty for
his insolence He wps carried off by some

A little later the "Yoonyun men, ez

r reasoned with EN-. Kernel McPelter's re-
marks wuz pertikelerly impressive. They
asserted that ez Amerikin citizens they he'd
rite to vote, and shood do so at all haz-
ards. The Kernel in reply statid to EN-
that the Corners wuz fitin for her liber-
ties-that no matter wat their abstrack
rites mite be the Corners coed not permit
herself to be contaminated with Ablishn
votes. "Shood yoo attempt it." sed he
impressively, "the blood Of the Corners
will be up, and won't be answerable for
