TO THE DOW CAST RAIDS
How Us Democrats are Going to
Steer the Ship Of State.

Corresp ndencv OF the Gazette.
THoRp SPRINGS, Tex, Nov. ls.-
80 generation OF rascals, who hath
warned you To flee from the wrath to
come?n Thus spoke ST. John man,
with his eye on late political events.
He ought not to have said it. 1t is
not scriptural for a man to take snap
judgment, nor to whet sword Of ven
geance
THE GAZETTE talks right, we like
ats benevolent spirit. We must avoid
unsavory language and words that
sting. Us Democrats are now
going to run a Demucrstical form
of government In Democratic style for
about six presidential terms. We want
all parties 20 love us, and in so doing,
AS THE GAZETTE says, to love the gov
eminent aud be truly loyal. We want
our president to be very kind and
obliging. He ought to be gallant to
Belva, who came out like strong wo-
man rejoicing to run race, and ran IL.
Some iue morning he ought To APP
point her To keep some of the bureaus
tidy, the Indian bureau, for instance,
where triukets have to be fixed up for
little indian boys and girls 1t is said
that Belva ran TO "show of, ~ but sine
didn't. No ladies' man will repeat
such charge. One party holds that
the women take more than they have
a right 10 take; the other party h Ids
that they don't get nearly enough
of their rights. aud she
was bound as the regular nominee u
carry her psrty's banner, just like
| Mulhattan aud Ben. We don't know
down here whether we are a little
ahead OF or q little behind the news,
but we understand that Blaine had his
grip sack and was on tine eve of start
ing for New York state to adjust the
| vote, when Grover sent him the follow
ing dispatch
| Come on, will duck don't be afeard,
Lend me your llt-Oag 10 grease my beard.
| As sOon as tine teAtheIed knight got
| IT,, he halted, read around aud be-
/ tween tue lines, and then made what
/ Is familiarity called "a straight shirt
tail' for the timbered lands Of Maine
wnere he prays 10 be left unmolested
We hope Grover will be more par
tlcular in his vernacular, and no
| hereafter excite undue approximations
A. the knight has such pitiful yearn
Ing Tor protection, he ought TO be pro
Lectsd; also, IL he needs more paper IN
order TO write some more let eIs To hi
dear friends he ought 10 be supplied
IL seems hard To make him Deliev
anything, and therefore some resDon
slble man like Roscoe ought to writ
and tell MIN ali about how it is in New
York, Texas, etc. or course he feel
lonesome, and he aud all his party ne
doubt feel worse than the Indian bO,
dld when his daddy died. The bol
said he didn't feel sorry much
but felt sOrter shamed. Us Demo
Gratis ought TO have some consideration
