while Tom drove home from the depot
in hig, 'oned landau, rushed over to the
companys Office and poured the story
INFO the ears of the select coterie OF bon
rirants who repose daily in easy chairs in
front Of the bank. and awaited develop
ments.
Soon as Tom h ID changed his collar he
sailed forth to relate his precious cam
paign joke. His first visit was, of course
to the bank. Soon as salutations mad
passed and Tom was congratulated on his
safe return, he began with:
Il say, the best story of the campaign
is related of Jewish firm in Indianapolis,
by the name of Abraham
Chestnut :" came from the deep bass
voice OF Major Hayden.
Not bit of it, retorted Tom. this
is entirely new. Abraham, in 1881. was a
firm supporter Of Cleve-"
Give us something new" broke i'll a
voice from the curbstone.
Tom stopped in dismay. Hold on,
! eentlemen; let me tell my story, and if il
. isn't true I'll treat"
! "Newr' responded dozen voices, why
that story appeared three weeks ago in the
Snohomish Eye"
well, let's hear the story" demanded
Tom. while drops of perspiration stood
upon his manly brow.
The Major then related the story with
all of Toms embellishments, to his inf
mite dismay.
Well" he faltercd. "that is the story
but it was told to me as entirely new way
back in Indiana, and how in the world i
got out here ahead of me beats all III,

OLYMPIA. FRIDAY EVENING, JULY u. 1883.
The Republicans "Jnbilate."

The Republicans had what they
called Jubilee meeting, Wednesday
evening, under the auspices of the
Lincoln Club, to afford Mr.. John B.
Allen, Judge Turner. Col. Evans and
others, AN opportunity to display their
qualifications and submit their claims
for the Congressional nomination in
September. Judge Root president,
and about hundred ex-office holders
and would-be partakers Of the loaves
and fishes arrayed themselves, with
open mouths, to drink in what little
hope WAS to be derived from the
forced enthusiasm and sophistry Of
the speakers.
Judge Turner led of. He did not
make speech. but recited poem,
The time was not ripe for him to deal
with details. The reserved decision OF
the Supreme Court on Woman Suf-
frage, doubtless handicaps the Judge,
and until that is decided he can hardly
see an inch before his nose. So it il
not surprising that instead of tellin g
. story he should adopt the usual al
Tentative and sing song.
Mr.. Allen followed in bombastic
eulogy Of the Republican party and
bitter denunciation of everything
Democratic. Notwithstanding We have
always regarded the gentleman as an
honest man, his plea was that of a
pettifogging lawyer. 1t was neither
fair nor honest, and totally unworthy
Of . man of Mr.. Aliens character. A
few notes taken may he made the sub
ject of comment at another time.
Col. Evans made characteristic
speech. 1t was boiling over with
Evans. Anybody who has heard him
At jubilee meetings knows that it il as
easy to make him bubble with good
humor as it is boiler of soap-suds by
application Of brisk fire.
Capt. Haines was not at his best.
He seems to have lost heart since he
wbooped 'er up 90 confidently for
Bradshaw in the last campaign.
The jubilee closed with few min
utes Of Tom Cavanaugh, who came
homo - full ~ . dogs hide with feas,
Of Harrison plans and precepts. His
clothes are ~ we'll decorated with
medals - his brain is plastered with
points To be used to retrieve the for
lorn hope. That AL might see the
decorations Tom peraisted...in turning
his back upon the audience, but NO
body took any oAense. He, like the
elown in the ring u privileged char
acter.
Tom suggested cheers for Harrison,
and this brought the meeting to an
abrupt close.

50 much by way Of Introduction to =
good story on himself. Everybody knows
that Tom went to Chicago. It matters but
little how he went suffice it to say he
went, carrying = diminutive Gresham
boom in his natty little. grip-sack. For.
tune was not propitious; the boom col
apsed; Harrison was nominated, and Tom
after hearty repast OF ''boiled crow"
started for Indiana to cast few s.snchurs
to the windward." While there he caught
on to the latest campaign joke which runs
somewhat in this strain:
A Jewish firm in one OF the Eastern
cities in 1884 contributed largely to the
Cleveland campaign fund. When APP
preached lately by the local Democratic
committee for the usual supply of tho
sinews Of war, Abraham. is head, said,
'Oh. no; I gifs yen noting dis year."
"Wby. Uncle Abraham. you haye not
gone back on your party,'' "Oh no. mine
trend. goes lack on noting, but I
sthands BY mine own family, you see, der
lost tribes of Israel" "How is that, Uncle
Abraham" IVY. you see. der tribes Of
Ben and Levi are now searching for
passage through the Dead Sea, and l
must BE- der Moses to dell when der light
goes oudt."
Soon rs this exquisite shred caught
the evef-expanded ears OF Tom, he start.
cd for home, and at every station and on
every train his mellow voice was heard
relating the best story of the campaign.
He came by the lightning express. and
travelled night and day. to be the first TO
relate it to admiring friends. The story
was Of course told in the valley O! the
Yakima. ont the summit Of the Cascades, 1t
