Prohibition Triumphant,

Yankee Doodle comes to town,

Sticks feather In his crown
And votes for Prohibition.
Politicians look aghast
AT this little dandy,
Ihlnk the youth Is rather fast

And they look at him with scorn
For his manly action:
As he brayely breasts the storm
or each Slavish faction,
And deposits without fear
His determination
That saloons must disappear
From this christian nation.
When gentleman acknowledges question is
logically possible " to he answered, and then
eVadeS the same by trumpeting his own weak
