A Serious Threat,

From all l can hear, the Democratic
party is now seriously threatened with
julie Majors. julie Is giving it out
through the settlement that he is goin
to quit the Third party and como on
back homo to the old lick log.
II have been gallopin with the Third
party from the first jump" said julie in
tellin the boys about it over at the
Cross Roads the other day. "Accordin
to what the leaders tell me, we have
whipped the fight In every election by
tremendous big majorities, but the other
fellows do the countin aud beat US out
Of the offices. So l have come to the
conclusion that any party which can't
take a big majority and beat a measly
little minority never will stack up any
thingsto speak of. Whereas at the
present writin l think I will take out
and quit"
So much for American politics.
