Ths burden Of his song is Addicks, and
he Aatters himself that he may in time

Of the Dagsboro hundred statesman.
It Is not believed that he has yet
charmed the ear OF Mr. Burton, but his

interesting and clever, even though it's

are hlled with boys and girls, while men
walk the streets
Mr.. Sovereign said he did not intend

to one Of the rich. II they would vote
for good government, not in Washington
alone but everywhere, they could and
would get 1t.

behind all labor troubles Just so long
as one man Is given 1000 homes he can
not occupy, and others have no place to

troubles exist
Mr Sovereign expressed himself as
ayerse to strikes, which he claimed did
not originate in the present labor
societies, but were as old as the world

Mr.. Sovereign then briefly touched on the
