pect and we all three adjourned t" the rear o
a big wood pile and We there delivered al
Grafton in which the audience Of two wer
denounced as the very spawn of political cor
ruption, to their entense enjoyment. Dagget
then pulled a newspaper from his pocket Civ
ing the infamous life and career of Texar
desperate named Collins and announced that
| he intended reading it at Elke by sui stituting
our name for that Of Collins and show the
Elkenians just what we were. We cared but
little as We we're we'll satisfied that the senti
ment against us there could not be intensified
| even if we had been identified with all the
ruffians that Texas ever produced. Mighels
threatened to show the public that we were
connected with the Infamous luke family and
50 We shook hands all round and parted.
TRAPPED AT EUREKA.
/ At Eureka there was q council of war held
at the Independent House in which the land
lady took hand. Here the politicians played
us a scurvy trick which nearly cost us our
life, 1t was proposed to send some one up
to Phoebe to speak for Deal. Gen. Kittreli
was ready to go provided anyone would 60
with him for company, but no one was anxious
to suffer Eve hundred miles Of staging over a
barren country and risk freezing to death for
the party. Just then We hove in sight and a
plot was Immediately coacocted to pair US
with KittreIl, and old Kit remarked as we
came in: "Here's Sam let him 20 to Phoebe
with me. want man that can sway an au-
dience and keep them in good humer. He's
the man for Phoebe. His terse sledge- hammer
style of putting things would be worth three
hundred votes in Phoebe" All agreed that
the country WAS lost if we did not speak in
Phoebe, and we tumbled into Kits taffy trap
headlsng. Hank Mitchell loaned US Rus
STA overcoat for the ride but it did as no good
as Kit froze to it all through the trip and we
allowed him to, because he seemed to have
such high opinion of Us. Somebody who
said his name was Thompssa, slipped 500 in
to our hand the night before We boarded the
stage and said ''make that speech ripper"
We thought Phoebe was about twenty miles
away somewhere, but when we came to pay
for our ticket it staggered US, and with meals
s.: 80 apiece all along the route it cleaned Us
out of funds in short order.
BoLT1Na TIE PARTY.
All along the read we stopped at the small
towns and rained abuse on our friends
Mighels and Daggett, but at Phoebe remorse
overlook US and our soul sank in sea of con-
triton We dreamed that these men walked
up and down upon us upbraidipg US for our
perfdity and ingratituds, and We woke up
thinking of the pleasant days and nights We
had spent with them ever the Fredericksburg
beer and ham sandwiches and coming t"
how we had sold our soul and body
70 the Democracy for five hundred miles OF
stage fare we concluded to jump the track |
and pitch bad politics to the winds. So at
Pleche we made speech Of nearly an hour in
ength tearing the Republican ticket all to
pieces but winding up with glowing eulogy
IN Da2gett and Miyhels e1tolling them until
he Democratic audience were Kissing and
1slling and the Republicans in the back part
# the hall cheering vigorously. After the
fair was over they asked old Kit why he
rought "such d jackass to Pleche," eud
Git told them seriously that We were subject
. fits of mental alteration and it couldn't be
elped. During the next few days every Dem.
crat in the camp took occasion to stop US on
he street and give his opinion Of our course
We thought the world had rolled over u.s.
lrriving At Eureka we got into the wrong
ouse and were nearly nobbed by an audience
hich didn't endorse our sentiments, and
'sking back upon eur stumping trip which 4
nothing but failure. Decentralization
I'd disaster, repaired t. the Comsteck to
wait the result. In all tho places where We
AIDE Democratic speeches the towns rolled
? heavy Republican najorities and where
'er We made Republicaa speeches q Dem
ratio victory aston,shed the people. These
. the cold facts of car sagebrush campaign
1873, and if the pnblic but knew the
entail missries We endured it would never
ain be charged Up against us.
