win out, too. De town needs a change.
1t aire too dry here Sundays. an de peo-

Say, read dis love letter from st.

Did yuse see our turnout for protec-
tion an de red metal? 1t was kinder
cold on Saturday night. Say, recollects
de day IL year ago when we heared dat
a feller by de name of Garfield had just
landed right. We didn't know Garfield
from de angel Gabriel. All of us in dis
country was for Blaine in dem days.
Soon as de news come. jes de same, Wal
ter Moore an some of de boys got a toy
cannon, an we all shouted and marched
till our shoes wore out an de heat made
us hunt cover. Now, when Moore is
wanted to ratify he is aturnin' in fire
alarm or inspectin' de hose over on de
East Side.
whats de ISOLATION goin' to do wild
Mckinley? Oh. l spose as how We'll
have to throw him. He hain't 16 to l.
When Governor Sheldon gets home me
an him II caucus, like Tom McCaffery
an de fire alarm done up to Sacrament
to. Den we'll line up program on de
deal. Go chase yourself. I've got to
see John Muir bout de fruit crop, as we
aire to harvest up to Ventura in August.
1t won't be Harry Patton. We kinder
think dat good lookin' chap hain't no
longer our friend. L. j. Rose maybe
can't be forced. / guess may be we'll
have to bullseye on JayMary Hen Brooks
after all. It's a mighty tough game,
but what's feller to do? So long. I'll
see yuse again"
