the throat, and rolled on the sand in a
deadly struggle.

''yoo've spilled everything by showing up
too soon, she exclaimed, and then she
cried aloud to the men on the ship
Come and save me! save me. am not

the kentry together! Come, Gomez
observed comoshun on the deck nv
the ship, and ther wuz hurried consul
tashun. Some gentlemen from Massa-
choosits remarkt that they wuz willin
enuff to help to reskoo Dimocrisy, pure

Then the rest nv EN-, holdin ther noses
with CRATE yoOnanimity, remarkt they
wuznt accustomed to that sort Nv thing,
and it was rather late in life to COM

clappin on all the sale she Good bear sailed
away back to whence she came.

Anyhow they disappeared from mortal

And democracy wept, and walled, and
tore her hair, and when l awoke the

unforchinitly, they are loaded down.
The name is A 1, but them witch hez
taken it stinks. Theirs memories hangin
around it witch kill it. Watts the yocse

Watts the yoose NV howlin reform and
putin the work in the hands NV the
trustid assoshiates NV Boss Tweed? Ef
we could only keep them fellers out nv

to the hands Nv a half hundred NV Moo
York ward politishns, nor the flag NV the
kentry to the solid South. The problem
for Dmocrisy to solve is how to git rid
NV itself. Eff we Good only hev a breef
season NV oblivion!
