BY KICKAPOO.
He'll has an advantage over the county
court, in that it has always quorum.
The fellow who would spell his name
with a C has been smelling after court
house pie until he has nearly worn away
his nose.
The county commissioners should never
want for rain, as the people of late are
giving them plenty OF thunder.
The county is run by quintette of
seif-admitted ignoramuses. and the figure
of Justice over the court house blush
es at the sight of them.
Attempting to build half million dol
lar court house with S250,0OO, is like
shouting "Hands up to an armless
man-damphoolishne
Legislation by mental crippes and
official chimpanzees will swamp any
county. Bexar county is nearing the
marshes.
The official that has only jag-juice to
initiate him, is one OF the evils OF the
times. There are several such evils in
Bexar county.
The ignorant seldom appreciate intelli
gence, hence the misfits of the county
court abolished the Office of county super
intendent of public schools. They have
re-created it, however, and instead OF re-
tanning the peoples choice, are now seek
ing some fellow with an alphabet learn
ing and an encyclopedia pretensfon to till
it.
II certain bugs we're poisonous.it would
be dangerous to pick up chips around the
county "nine- hole"
enridge for rock. while the city has al
ready gone to Breckenridge for water. or
course the people will pay the freight.
The commissioners song: I'VE didn't
know twas wrong"
The scalp enumerators seem to be vac
cinated against knowledge. However
much exposed to it they never take IT.
The fire. plugs seem not to have enough
water in them lately to eXtinguish burnt
finger. They should be left open and then
maybe they could catch little rain
water.
One of the commissioners has dug a
hole and stuck his feet into it to maintain
his position. The others can't push, pull
nor lift him out of it, even ON an invita-
tion to take something" It's said that
forty steam rollers could not pull him an
inch on a down grade.
Sir Walter has shut off the gas and the
county court is consequently in the dark
The county commissioners are building
a glass house, and IL is safe to say that
they will never live in IT..
The man who would spell his name
with G. has sand and brick for sale and
. is getting so sweet on the scalp counters
that they do not have to use even sugar in
their coffee 1t is understood, however.
that the bidders have already enough
sand in their craws.
Satan must have smiled on some Of the
fire-plugs. Like aim, they seem to have
little use for water.
If hats were used only to cover brains,
the fellows who could, in an emergency
count one If wolf-scalp was in sight.
The new court house is going up by air
pressure-wind, and the Scottish Chief is
furnishing the most Of it.
The Chief should present that green
fireman with Waterbury watch. After
several years. practice on it he might be
able to wind a tire-plug. Anyhow he
should be watched some way.
The higher some people aspire the lower
they get. The county commissioners
started to build courthouse and are yet
in the hole. and wildly shouting to the
taxpayers TO let them crawl out on their
backs.
Breckenridge is in shaky condition
today. The county commissioners are
down there studying rockolOgy, and when
huge boulder of geology is crushed be-
tween their comprehensioDS their very
hairs curl until they resemble cOrkscrews
One half of the courthouse gang say
that the other half must go.,while the
other moity say that they will remain as
long as there is whisker to cling to.
ITO BE CONTINUED TOMORROW.
