"gEwAR' Of DE P0LLYTIsHUN.'

Brother Gardner blew his nose with
a report which sounded like the explo
sion OF and Ohio River excursion stea-
mer, gave his shirt collar a lift which
made the stitches crack, and began
with:
"Bewar' of dc pollytishun! II he am
black. 90 outer yer way to shun him.
II he am white, lock yer doahs an load
yer shotguns. F"
The old man paused here to look in
to his desk for piece of slippery-elm,
and Waydown Bebee took advantage Of
the opportunity to rise and inquiries:
Does the chair refer to a white man
named Seeker Jackson:"
''Yes, de char refers to dat VERY

an mouth organs for Guild babies IN

At that moment the sounds OF a
wrangle were heard IN the ante room,
struggle took place, and the voice OF
Seeker jackson was heard crying oat;
Let 20 Of my hair or III call the po'
lice! My platform is; Three dollars
a barrel for -four, six hoops on a barrel,
and horse and carriage to take the
laboring man to his daily tolls. p"
At a signal from Brother Gardner.
Samuel shin and Giveadam Jones
passed out, aud in two or three seconds
after there we're sounds Of breaking
glass, bump. bump, on the stairs, and
then voice floated up from the dark
alley, saying;
"Ion can throw me down stairs ev-
cry night in the week if you want to-
All ask is that you vote solid for
Seeker Jackson on election day"
"Polyties, softly observed the Presi-
