It will he remembered Truth long
since prophesied Governor Foster
would succeed himself at the end
Of the present term. Just now it
locks ~ il he would be nominated
On the first ballot cast ut the conven-
ton. This being 80 it might not be
a,niss to give = reason for the faith
that was and Is IN Us. Well, there
was no scanning Of the horizon, no
observation OF the stars, no consult
OF the Zodiac in casting the horo-
scope Of the political life Of Murphy
j. Foster. But what was far more
to be depended upon was the knowl-
edge Of = certain possession Of his
in the shape Of rabbits foot with
. history. aud we would bet more
on the foot OF one cotton tail pap
tured in the right place than We
would ON the predictions Of all the
weather prophets or astrologists in
America. The foot in question was
originally sent to Francis L.
Nichols while engaged in his gu
bernatorial canvass by . small boy
who caught the rabbit in the Mag
uolia Cemetery. The boy assured
bis Excellency that il he would pre-
serve this Mascot he would surely
triumph; and he did. The charm
Was then turned over to Murphy J.
Foster during his struggle against
NcEnely, and the result was that
its owner has been holding down the
Governors chair ever since. Thus
it Will be seen that this rabbits
foot is sdIl bringing political luck
% its owner. For this We prOphes
sled that Governor Foster would
succeed himself, and no: for the
reason that We imagined We possess
any xreat amount q astrological
wisdom. Tie moral Of this Is that
III aspiring politicians should pro-
cure the lefs hind foot Of . rabbit
