The claim of any voter still ad-
herring to the Democratic party that
he is Jeffersonian reminds us fore
IDLY of the man who claimed to be
in possession of barrel hundred
years old.
"And be those the same slaves 2"
asked an open-mouthed bystander.
"Why, no; they had to have the
slaves renewed once"
care them the same old heads 2"
inquired the incredulous old gent.
"Why, no; they had to put in
new heads to match the slaves"
"And be them the same old
hoops ?" still persisted the old man.
"Why, no-of course not; we
had to renew the hoops to make FER
tight"
"Well, I'll be dad-gummed !" ex-
claimed the old gent. "What in
thunder is hundred years old about
that ere bar'l 2"

Dollars and sense are the two

Last summer, when Gov. Waite,

IF CHRIST CAME TO CHICAGO.

1T NhhAS1 SAME AO ChACAWV'
If Christ came to Chicago, or any
where on earth to-day,
often wonder at the words that He,
our Lord, would say.
Were He to come and greet the
people of our land,
wonder would they welcome Him,
and take Him by the hand
would picture him lovely man
among his fellow men,
Filled with the same spirit now as
He was then
Without employ, ragged clothed and
hungry in the cold;
Would smile on Him and welcome
Him, the Lovely One of old !?
The time, 'twere Sabbath evening,
the holy day of rest;
The place, 'twere near the churches,
with which our land is blest.
He would hear the sound of music
gently breaking on His ear.
And in calm, majestic wonder, might
draw, unnoticed, near
The doorway of this Christian church
might be built of marble stone,
Up which the Christ, our Master,
would wander all alone
Men of fashion, dressed in broad
cloth, would be sure to meet Him
there.
l wonder would they welcome lin,
or repel Him with stare
/ wonder would they know Him ?
Would they open wide the door ?
Is this religion (?) for the rich, and
never for the poor?
Or would they ask Him out of this
million.dolar church ?
Would they leave our Christ and
Savior so sadly in the lurch
| fear our Lord and Master would be
greatly out of place
Were He to go among the rich, aud
meet no friendly face
Among these wealthy people, among
these, his fellow-men,
And, turning mournfully away,
would wish to die again.
