The blatant crossroads orators viii

To the widowed argument about

the strike Of Carnegie's starved la

ures with one abluuon. than you could
make the people Of Virginia forget that
disgraceful and bad smelling episOdeof
black-and tan rule. If there were good
men concerned in it they never had
any influence, and were forced to pull
with the dog team until the worst that
could yet be said for it was that they
had to kick out of the traces, but with
such contamination Of bad company
that they never got back whence they
came. and the knowledge Of them is a
reproach, and by word and Kissing.

And that is why we have waited till
now to point the popular eye of the

of our gallant candidate for
