OloOslIens, ez follows:

he'd to stop and explain 10 en-
that lngersoll wantid 10 destroy
the Bible, wich infooriatid EN-.
"Ain't we to be allowed TO hev
our regler township Bible! Wat'll

boss eases 2" they Indignantly de-
mandid. go on! go on down

WAREAs, The appearance NV
SIGH a man on the stump is Cake
lated to outrage the feelins Nv the
Corners, and tare up the bull
works Nv sosiety, therefore be it
Resolred, That the .eleckshun NV
Tilden and Hendrix is a necessity,
and that after this exhibition NV
infidelity on the part NV lngersoll,
every Republican witch don't i'm
mejitly jinc us and cast his ballot

thy Nv salyaShcn.
Afore We took a vote on the res
olooshens, we adjourned to take
a drink, and while A takin Nv it,

all the twelve yeers them carpit-
baggers hev bin here | never saw
EN- without a%ntissipatin trubble,
and | WIZ never yit diSappintid.
When We came to order agin,
Josef askt permission to make a
fewremarks. He sympathized with
the meetin hartily. He knowd In
gersoll, and knowd him to be an
ldfddle and a unbeleever. Feel
in that he must add his unworthy
testimony agin SIGH a man and
SIGH doctrines he woodruff of the
meetin wanted to heer him they
must git away from the bar.
1t took me some time to git EN-
away, for a Louisville drummer
for a likker house happened to
come in for a drink, and the en-
tire meetin he'd gathered around
him expectin to be askt to take
suthin. 1t wuz a bitter thing for
me to stay away with SIGH an op-
portoonity afore me, but "Dooty
first" is my motto and | stuck it
ont.
The Louisville man hevin trcet-
ed the crowd twice, and there be
in no show hat he wood do it
Rgin, they reassembled.
Josef then remarkt that sympa-
thizin with the objicks w the
meetin, he had prepared some res
olooshens hisSelf, witch he shood
offer, with the remark that eff he
wuz interrupted he wood to-wunst
lick the interrupter out Nv his
boots in less than a mint
WAEEAs, The Republican party

therefore be it
Resolved, That Bob lngersoll in
denyin the divinity Nv our Savior,
milk a mortal stab at the Dino
cratic party, to witch savior is es
pecially, a necessity.
Resolred, That Bob Ingersall in
denyin the divinity Nv our Savior,
hurts our feelins ez Dimocrats, ez
it wuz for us, mostly, that he come

all, and mat when he shakes our
faith in the savin NV the theei
upon the cross, he destroys the
only hope the averidge Dlmocrat
