IBy Wan Ov the Boys.1
Arrah will wees chuse to hear the news,
Bedad It's I'm the purfect cure
To tell of knute-the crate galoot-
Thet's ccmin' out for congress shure.
Yis boys he's in wild ivry ring,
And knows how tits himself"
He darsent squale about thare shtae;l
BY COR he's shared thare pelf.
Ye sees the rage in this ID age
Is rings they call monOpolies,
And tools lOike Knoot, the schaming loot,
Is how they plays thare game on yees.
They makes the laws, fix ivry clause
To save themselves from jails-
Thin rob US poor, increase thare shtore,
In that they niver fails.
This thrue as sed, if the poor man bread
Does shtale to kape from shtarvin,
That the law it saves, those CRATE big knaves
Who chate the poor thare liyin.
IT'S the pine land ring who Knuty bring
From abscoOrness mosht desarvin,
They fears the jails for pine land shtales,
Want him to do thare sarvin.
Yis this is so, and troth III show
That he's in thare employs,
Fur at Datroit thay made roit,
Twas pine ring gin the boys.
Thare mouthy organ "Thunderin Gordon, :"
The laweyer ov thare ring,
Whin the boys did mate Jumped to his fate
And shouted, come and bring
All Nelson, Graves and Gilman knaves
Vid mo in tho hillside tpntsps

The nagur in the fences.
Beger ye know, and throth Its so,
Knutes jist the man to SCOT,
Dug dirt afore, knows lobby lore,
And for them lie will root.
Ye hears them lie and bluff and thry
To rit yees farmers voat,
Thare murtherin cause needs congress laws
And Knoot to hip thin out.
But little Knoot musht dig and root
To git our hip that's shure,
For in Saint Paul the other fall ......
The spalpeen sold as thare.
Ye sees bill, "The Granger Bill"
A just and honest law,
To shtop the frate stale on the whate,
WIS XIII by MIN Degar.
He voted No." yis that is 20,
And thus helped kill the bill,
And now they say he's got his pay
In land frum big Jim. Hill.
That Knutes tool why any fool
Wild half an oy can see,
And all this rant of praise is cant,
To blond both yees and me.
The pine land ring Knute's praises sing.
The millers to-that's funny
Fen elevator men take pen,
All aid his cause wild munney.
So don't he fulcs or stoopid mules,
But vOat Knoot in the shade,
And If yees do. twixt me and you,
Whate will come MP grade.
But mustn't shtop and 'tindme crop,
And write unto yees later,
And tell we then about sum men
Who will support this crater.
