Jim Budd of California, when FIRST they called

ened to proclaim
That you really were no trotter, and you were
not in the race,
And the best the people give you it would be

And even once suggested that perhaps you'd
distanced be-
With my pessimistic prophecies was almighty
free;
But I've heard the voters verdict, and want
to tell you fat
Jim Budd of California, was talking through
my hat.
Jim Budd of California, when first heard you
say
That you would be governor, I piped
thoughtless Nay;
And was among the scornful, and said that
you were "off;''
l proved my double density by many jeer
and scoff
But l noticed that you trotted in a style to
cause amaze
And you gathered in the voters by your own
Buddistic ways.
And regarding all my prophecies, 1 am free to
menti on that
Jim Budd OF California l was talking through
my hat.
Jim Budd of California, if you'll permit me
now
While your hand is near the scepter and the
laurels on your brow,
would say & odspeed unto you, and I'd add
unto it this:
You were chosen by the masses; let their trust
be not amissl
Weary burdened, heavy-laden, they have
turned in faith to you;
Lift the burden from their shoulders; fight
their battl stalwart, true;
Help the toilers from their labor to reap an
equal part,
jim Budd OF California, you will own the
peoples heart.

IN THE PoTrEBs FIELD,
Son Of a Rich Rochester Family
Dies Poor and Alone.


JEFFERSON, Iowa, Jan. ia
few weeks ago a newspaper of
Rochester, N. Y, contained story
OF the search of relatives for lost
son and brother named John H.
Push. BY accident a copy OF one
Of the papers found its way to this
city and fell under the eye OF one
who had known a young man Of
that name in this city about the
time referred to, the summer of
1892. He worked for q farmer in
this county and at the time he was
plainly unused to such employ
ment, having the appearance Of a
city bred young man. Later he
went to work for a railroad bridge
construction company here and
then taken sick and died Of ty-
phoid fever, October 2, 1892, and
was buried in the potters field
here. To a friend he confided the
secret that his name was John H.
Push, and not Knight, his assumed
name. The attending physician
recalls the case says the man ap-
pesred to be we'll educated and not
accustomed to the life he was lead
ing. From various sources it is
learned that his age and discrip.
ton tally exactly with that Of the
John FL. Push whom the sick rela-
tives at Rochester are seeking.
