Names Voice.

Don't you do it, Mr.. Reed,
IT'S play by selfish greed
or those Workers to translate
You from out this fond old state.
We've no doubt that you'll succ eed--
That's your nature, Mr.. Reed.
But we trust that just for gain
You'll not jump the state of Maine,
Yet that halt of fifty thou
That's an awful coaxer-wowl
Don't believe that I'd resist.
Yet. alas, I'd not be missed.
But it's different far with you.
What, oh, what would Portland dor
You're landmark-you're a sight;
Rank the same as Portland light.
When stranger comes to town
People take and show him down
Round the islands, round the docks,
Wear his shoe taps to the socks
Walking of him to and fro
Pointing out the Portland show.
Last of all, with swelling pride,
Visitor is pulled aside
So towering shape may stalk,
Lurching down the quivering walk.
Feel the earth beneath him throb!
Plain enough that he's mob.
How the people part and stare,
Shivering meath his icy glare,
Turning as he losses by
TO follow him with goggling eye.
Hats come off and passers lout,
Sidewalk strollers all turn out;
And he-he rolls serenely through
With here and there "Harr dye do 2"
And all the folks along the prom.
Gasp rapturously, "That is Tom"
Oh, Mr.. Reed, pray do not go,
For Portland's bound to miss you so.
Come back this summer to Grand Beach,
Where you can be in easy reach;
Where folks who have an ennuied guest
And want to add to life zest
Can show him something he will like
Tom Reed straddle of his bike.
Oh, spurn that base financial worm,
That fifty thousand legal tlrm.
Come back to Portland. Let us gaze -
Upon your halo's mellow rays.
It may be that 'mongst those afar
You wear the scepter of car,
And that for all the common crew
You simply have "Harr dye do :"
You're just as dear to Portland still
AS Portland Head or Munjoy Hill,
Aud underneath your war-trail paint
Your loving district sees saint.
