ARP GOES TO FULFILL HIS PROM
Uses TO THE PEOPLE.
lie Likes the Lone Star State Folks, and Says
Texas is Great State, and Her People
Among the Best in the World.

BY the time this reaches your readers
/ will be in the Lone Star State again
1t is no fun for me to leave home for q
month, but l like Texas and am going
back to perform my promises and see the
bright side of her country and her peo-
pie. We always see the bright side when
we go visiting. When people come visit
ing us at our house we are on our best
behavior and everything is sweet and
lovely and when they go home they tell
everybody what a delightful time they
had and what a charming family and
what good cooking and what good beds
to sleep on and somebody tells us what
they said and that plcaSeS us and COM
forts us and makes us all as loving as u
mutual admiration society.
But it won't do for folks to stay too
long anywhere, for it is impossible TO
keep the bright side i'll view more than q
few days at a time. There is q dark
side occasionally III every family and it
will come to the front every now and
then for man is born to trouble rs the
sparks fly upward and woman is, too. 1t
is q good thing to visit and be visited,
for it breaks up the monotony of domes-
tic affairs and improves our behavior and
sharpens our wits and lOosens the old
more shifty in providing something to eat
or to wear.
l like TeXas-I reckon for the same rea-
son that Mr.. stephens liked his little
snarly, unfriendly dog. When asked
what was the secret OF his attachment
to the brute, he said: "Well, | like the
little dog just because he likes me and
that is reason enough" | an going 10
Texas this time in search of the end of
a rainbow that is over there. 1t stretches
from TcXarkana to San Antonio. and [
shall peruSc the country all along the
line and of course will see the bright and
beautiful side AMI write about it; and
your readers must take it with some al
lOWance for | am an invited guest, and it
would be very bad manners for me to
find fault with her country or her people.
l am sorry that | won't be here to vote for
pure unterrified democracy, but will try
to do like Mr.. Blaine did in the Maine
election will pair off with some third
party friend-if | can find one! Mr..
Blaine had TO publish a card and explain
why he didn't vote and he said he was
200 miles away from home on election
day but he paired off with Il democratic
friend | liked that. | like Mr.. Blaine
because he liked Ben Hill and was the
first man to send q check for $50 for his
monument. | like him because he is OBJ
