,asia! unfortunate Dasher! who is !
most to be pitied this swelterlng
weather? For Dasher's reply, all we
have to say, drive on young one, drive
the rowels into your hobby, keep up
'them same" ticks, and you will soon
be on the wrong side of the red flag.
Our Railroad leaders, like the Courts
law, are plain, read for themselves,
arc aimed at the intelligence of the
people and in their best interests, and
we feel and know that they don't be-
lieve, like you, that we deal in gilt
tering generalities; not at all, they
know better and will put the saddle

The Organ comes to US once
more in sepulchral garments, as re-

and health, both much needed, must
plead excuse for his fayorite being so
barren of usual vim and elGnt But
this Dasher makes bold and feels
clad to announce the return OF notre
Orphclin, somewhat improved in
health, and with the full will, which
finds the way to renewed labor in the
cause he cherishes. Though eau
casia has us evoked together he
will find that the two teams can pull
separately, and in despite of his OBJ
structions we'll make the Railroad
trip. and blow our victorious whistle,
before he carves his Christmas
turkey. s.
