Thus sings Burlington Hdpkeye
writer: ':The editor sat in his office
whence all but him had fled, and he
wished that every last dead beat was
in his grave-stOne dead. His mind
then wandered far away to the time
when he should die and his royal edi-
torial soul go scooting to the sky; when
he'd roam the fields of paradise and
sail DER jasper seas, and all things
glorious would combine his every sense
to please. He thought how then he'd
look across the great gulf dark and
drear, that'll yawn between ms happy
soul and those who swindle here; and
when for water they would call and in
agony they would caper, he'd shout to
them: Just quench your thirst with
the due that's on your paper"
