DORSEY, THE REPUBLICAN GUYAS-
CRUTIS, is LOOSE.

CRUTIS, IS LOOSE.
The Republican party is just now under
going succession of commissions, alternated
with chills, rigors and cramps. The cause of
these disturbances and perturbations is Dor
sey, ex-senator ex-Star Route thief ex-Sec-
rotary Of the National Republican Commit
tee, and altogether a most extraordinary
scamp. Dorsey is now loose. A good story,
which aptly illustrates the condition of I'M
easiness which Just now prevails in the Re-
publican camp, owing to the fact that Dorsey
is on the war.path. is told OF the
ferocious and untamable guyascrutis caught
in the wilderness near the source of
the Mississippi River and brought to the city
of st. Paul in early times for show. The
guyascrutis was confined in an immense
cage and wqs heavily chained to prevent
escape. The adventurous showmea who had
captured the gryascrutis had flaming hand
bills printed describing the nondescript
beast, with rude representations giving
imperfect idea of bis hldeousness. His tail
was represented as forty feet long; his body
was 8 combination of beast and reptile, with
claws like a vulture, wings like a
bat, mouth like a crocodile, tusks like
an elephant, teeth like a lion, and
emitting an odor equal in ofensiveness
to a quarter section of poiecats. He could
roar like lion, bite like serpent, and use
his tail fer catching, holding or pounding, as
occasion required. AS usual, the people far
and near focked to see the great American
tf.ot INN fbo
show to begin the guyascrutis was in a most
unenviable mood. He reared ratified his
chains. and used his tail with terrible force
in beating the sides Of his cage. The show
man came to The front with little speech,
saying the guysscrutis was in terrible rage.
had broken several OF hisstrongest chains and
about killed one of his keepers, but, ladies and
gentlemen, said the Snowman, eff possible,
we are going to show him" He then went
inside of the cage. Immediately after an
other great commotion the Snowman, with
hs face all stained with pokeberry juice and
his clothes in tstters exclaimed: "Lsdies
and gentlemen, save yourselves For Gods
sake, save yourselves! The guyascrutis is
LOOSE" 1t is needless to say the people
circumference of the Republican camp can
be heard the cry: "Save yourselves For
Gods sake save yourselves Dorsey is loose
Dorsey has broken his chains He holds aloft
his verdict and shouts to the gang for whom
he committed crimes to save the grand old
Republican party from defeat, II have the
archives; am the custodian OF your fate,
Ill A. e
you to powder" Now then what is the ex-
hibition? Such guilty knaves as Foster, OF
Ohio, are crawling on their BELLIES with
their mouths in the dirt to Dorsey, telling
him he is a good fellow, an honest, upright
man, an ornament to the party, and that he
has been most cruelty outraged, ETC., through
out the entire vocabulary of cowardly, sneak
ing, fawning lickspitalism. AS they come
Dorsey puts his heel on their necks, spits up
on them or kicks them as if they were
hounds. With ole or two exceptions the Re-
publican organs are silent as tombstones and
it is given out that Arthur, who eulogizsd
the Christless whelp at the Delmonico BAN
quet for crimes perpetrated in Indiana to
carry the State for Porter and Garfield, is now
standing that he, Arthur, shall not be passed
through Dorseys threshing machine. Dor
ssy is a production of the Republican party.
1t spawned and nursed him, warmed him in
to life and notorieJy. Dorsey finally became
so odious that the better elements of the Re-
publican party demanded his exposure. But
the virtuous element of the Republican
party met with signal defeat. Dorsey isnow
loose and exasperated. The Republican
guyascrutis is in a rage. Hideous ferocious
and unmanageable, he thirsts for blood, and
ike the giant in the nursery tale, he growls,
'fe, fl, 70, fun, dead or alive, will have
some" In the meantime the Republican
| party is demoralized, and some of the bosses
are debating how they can save themselves
from The jaws and claws of the Star Route
| guyascIuts.
