THE NATIONAL BIRD
Fourth Of July OrRti0n by the Hon. G. w
Peck. at Lacrosse.

The bird that should be selected as the en-
blem Of our country, the bird of patience, for
bearance perseverance,, and the bird of terror
when aroused. Is the mule, There is no bird
that combines more virtues to the square
foot than the mule. With the mule emblaz-
oned on our banners we would be terror to
the foe. We are q nation of accomplishing
hard workers We mean to do the fair thing
by everybody. We plod along doing as we
would be done by. SO does the mule We
as nation are slow to anger So is the mule
As nation we occasionally stick our ears
forward and fan the flies off our forehead. Sc
does the mule. We allow parties to get on
and ride as long as they behave themselves.
SO does the mule. But when any nation sticks
spurs into our TANKS and tickles our heel with
q straw, we come down stiff-legped in front
our ears look to the beautiful beyond, oul
voice is cut loose and is still for war, and oul
subsequent end plays the snare drum on any.
thing that gets in reach of us, and strikes ter.
ror to the hearts of all tyrants. So does the
mule When the country gets older, and Con
gress has time to get in its work, the eagle
will be superseded as the national trade mark
and in it's place will rise the mule in all its
glory.
