York to reserve instrukshens till No
vember l, wich I gladly obeyed. 1
never hesitate to respond to call NV
this kind. l git my transportashen
from here to Moo York, wich is cheap
er than liyen at home, for tie Com
nifty send me money for meels, and
ez L sleep most Nv the time on the
: way, to escape the monotony Nv trav
el, don't really need the ikker wich
is necessary at home, and then when
| am in Moo York, waiten my turn, l
hev the free run NV the saloons in the
Sixth ward. Tho the ikker is unus
ualiy bad, ther is enuif Nv it, Wich is
some consolashen.
| wuz invited up to the Committy
rooms, and wuz met by the Chairman,
the CRATE Barnum himself
"Where shell we send Mr. Nasby?"
sed he to the Sekretury,
The Secretary onfolded a map NV
the United States wich wuz marked
all oAer in seckshuns.
Il shood start him in Western
Pennsylvany," replied the Secretary.
We need much work there"
Very good, sed Mr. Barnum,
700 will commence work in Pitts
burg. Here is the synopsis NV the
speech you will make there. and yoo
will need to study it keerfully so ez
to make no mistak. You will observe
that i'll Pittsburg the cotashuns 700
make are from Randall's speeches on
the tariff, wich to prove that the Di-
mocrisy are pledged to Pertekshun,
solid. Devote yoor time and energies
solely to this pint. Yoo may, howev-
er, in Pittsburg, denounce the tariff
on wool, claimin that it enhances the
cost Nv clothin Nv the workin man,
but insist that the tariff onto iron
must and shell be manetaned. Find
out how the people are prohibish,
aud act accordingly When 700 find
Republican ProEibitionist, urge him
to rename troo to his principles and
vote for st. John, by all means, but
when yOo run agin Democratic
Prohibitionist. show him the folly Nv
THROWN away his voth on man wich
cannot be elected
Il understand, 1 sed- 'This is
cleer sailin." And 1 took the synop-
sis Nv the Pittsburg speech
From Pittsburg 700 will perceed
over into Ohio. l warn yoo that VOC
must keep sober in Ohio, and must |
yoose discreshun and cawshun. In
the iron deestriks the Pittsburg
speech will do. But remember this:
when yoo git into the agricultural
seckshuns, 700 must study this other
speech. (He handed me another man
noscript.) In this one Dimocrisy is
pledged to free trade, with few ex-
cepshuns. Thus, when yoo are in the
grain counties In the interior, VOC |
must insist that the tariff onto wool |
shell de maintained, and also when
and also when 700 are up in the grape
region insist that the tariff on wine
shell not be disturbed When you
cross the wine, and where there amt |
no maDufacturin, yoo must argoo
that free trade is the only safe guard
the people hev agin monopoly
And
kin 700 tell me the counties wher
L must talk tariff on wool and wine,
and the counties wher | mustn't? 1t
would be okkurd to pit mixed on
these things.
Mr.. Barnum perdoosed map with
lides drawn AL over it
"Certinly. We hev maps prepared |
for the yoose Nv all our speakers.
These counties on the line Nv the
lake wich is coloren purple, are wine
counties, and wher ther is white lines
drawd tho there is wool ez well ez
wine. Wher there is a black cross
onto them, ther is manufakters as
ez well ez wine and wool In sich
counties 700 must urge protective
tariff onto everything. In the coun
ties marked wine exclusively the
Pertekshun must be confined to wine
alone, and likewise in the pure wool
counties to wool alone.
Sometimes there is wine in a par
ty Nv county, and somtimes wool
only in part Nv county, and in
sich cases.
Great Scott" 1 exclaimed, ''but
I can't do this | can't hev dozen
speeches prepared, How am / to
proceed with sich mixed up mess?"
1.-The process is simple, though
great care must be observed. On ar
irving at an appointment 700 must
take out the map and see wher 700
are. Then on arrivinat yer hotel Sc
lect from yer valise-the Committy
will furnish yoo valise in wich to
keep yer eileen shirts
1.-The Committy will likewise hev to
furnish the eileen shirts or ther will
be no yoose fur the valise onless it is
to keep the manooscrips, wich, NV it
self, will rekwire a very large one.
I'VE shel, furnish the valise and
the eileen shirts We hev to do this
with all our speakers, cepti sech ez
Carl Shurtz, wich we pay reglar prices
per mite, fur speekin fur Cleveland
and Reform. By the time yoo hev
filed these appointments we willsend
700 another route, and so till No
vember, when we hope victry will hev
crowned Qua efforts, and 700 shel re-
tire to yoor Post offs at the Cross
Roads the fullerin March"
Mr.. Barnum gave me money and
transportation to Pittsburg and 1 de-
parted happy. 1 felt good wunst
more to hev dollar in my pokkit,

dueter. hev bin droppt off the hind
