When you sound the long roll and
start eastward to demonetize the money
of the people and hand them over to the
masters, when you get your column in
motion you will find a few followers
struggling across the Long Bridge, and
some few will come from the west and
stand upon the top of the Alleghanies
doubling whether to come down or go
back. but when they see what your
contention is and your objects, they will
say: Israel is Joined to his idols, let

better ethics than subserviency to Eng

pie from the lakes to the gulf. We will
wind the bugle blast from the Rocky
mountains to the Alleghanies, and from
the Golden Gate rounding the Sierras
to the Atlantic shores, and with the
votes from 100000 people, nearly all
Democrats, we will come across here

Very well. you will have to pay me
one lire for every pigeon you counted
IF that is the law, here are forty lire"
responded the baron. counting out the
money.
The brigand looked over it carefully
and took his departure. Then the baron
became convulsed with merriment and
shook his fists boisterously after the re-
treating figure.

you forty lire and counted 100 pigeons"
