sludge-a mule with an everlasting grudge,
that had taken an oath it wouldn't bulge.

the office and flung him out doors. His boot
heels, hind buttons, spectacles and tobacco
box few about and alighted on the forms,
and in our excitement we failed to notice
them.
The big hole in our editorial on the tariff
was caused by boot heel. The blurr on the
poem entitled: when Baby Wakes Again
was caused by two hind buttons. Such 50
ciety items rs are unreliable owe their pres
emit state to the judges spectacles. We hope
it won't occur again.

We must beg our friends to hold up
In the first place, we are too honest, sober
and conscientious.
In the second place, we are needed at home.
We propose to run about ten thousand human
coyotes out of this territory during the next
twelve months, and put thousand others

While We feel tickled all over and can
hardly sleep nights, we can't accept the Office
nor leave Arizona. Just pass the place along
to some other man and leave us to do our
