with you as to candidates not being
brought out by their friends. When
a mans friends bring him out it
looks more like the Office hunting
the man than the man hunting the
o@ce. Its duty that we not only
owe to ourselves, but we owe it to
our children and our country, to
see that our Offices are filled with tho
very best material. | scorn the idea
that a man is fit for nothing else but
for office.
Mr.. Editor, as write am somo.
what troubled SEQ that my old
friend Kay has exploded, and fear
that part of him has blown away
over into Cuba. Well, Kay, l un-
derstand your game worry nicely.
You knew that old man Chips was
on the sick list; for on Wednesday,
when we were out at your town, we
told you so. In fact, you measured
us out dose Of medicine SO you
thought that you would fly into us
and feather us while wo woro not
able to help ourselves. But thanks
unto our Maker, we have somewhat
improved, and We will not wait n
month or two to find out when you
arc sick, to reply.
Well, Kay, when l made that
proposition of selling and buying to
you, you knew very we'll that l had
no thoughts, desires or inclinations
of rejecting upon any one because
OF poverty, and you needn't grasp at
such an opportunity to palm off a
little glory to the public upon me,
by saying that am down to. zero,
and let them know that } on arc away
up yonder about blood heat. In tho
first place l um not discussing any
ones financial standing. l simply
had reference to those high, minded,
small-headed, stiff. necked class, and
if there is anything on Gods earth
which | have moro nbhorence for,
l don't want to know it. Sometime
in the future will write an article
along this line which will give you
better reason to know what I think
Of this class.
You are perfectly excusable, f0
not complimenting thoae candidates
which I mentioned. l we'll under,
stand your tricks, for you told me
that 1 must put out better men be-
fore you could do so. OF course, you
will eschew politics when politics is
not in accord with your way of think,
ing. Oh yes, you've got somo follow
in tho wood pile, have you, which
you intond, after while, to pull of
your coat and roll up your sleeves
forF So bring him out and lot tho
public know who ho is. We arc able
to carry our own skillet and after
the ballots arc counted wo will show
you that wo have somo forethought
as to how tho minds Of the public
run.
But say, reader, isn't it strikingly
strange to 500 ono of the very old
mud stills of tho church call upon one
whom he claims to be on Rip Van
Winkle snooze, and also ono whom he
has placed away down to zero, to
show him tho 7 wonders of the
world?
Hero they are, old Bud, and they
are all contained in the Bible, but |
don't propose to point them out &C
you. | want you to road your Bible
a little more carefully, and while you
are hunting up those wonders you
are very apt to find something else
that will be of much value to YOU,
You must read, mark, learn and in.
