Buck Leavell, who was at work on
, his scrap-book, for / am loaded to
the muzzle with speech and don't
want to be battered up by having
to preside again this time.
The members were somewhat slow
in coming in, and there were still a
number of vacant seats when the
| President raped for order.
| Among the late arrivals was Col.
Green Champlin, who had been laid
up with grip for several weeks, and
Col. Dave Wiley, who came in on
the night train from Dawson.
Col. Tom Williams was absent,
as he had left town on reading that
the Hobson craze was still raging
to such an extent that some women
down in Texas had actually sunk
a smack at the entrance to Gen.
Skaters alimentary canal. There
was no telling when the kissing
epidemic might reach Hopkinsvil'e e,
as they say it goes with the grip,
and he sent word that he would
light rag and wait till the clouds
rolled by.
Col. Buck Leavell was unusually
cheerful by reason of the endorse
ment Sam Jones gave his Extra
Dry List. The Colonel said hewa
anxious to get chanc- to exhibit
the workings of his whipping post
while Sam was in town, but failed
to find victim. He made a nice
little speech and said Sam called
on him and he was obliged to apol-
agile for not having somebody on
hand to whip, just to show Sam his
copyrighted method Of making GRIM
inals quit their meanness.
Col. Bob Woodbridge, as soon as
he could get the floor. said he want

sneering at poor but honest men.
He had heard him say Bryan was
unfit to be President because he
paid only SS.35 cents taxes. If Mr..
Jones had mouth-piece present he.
would like to know how rich man
hadto be to be President. Mr.. Jones
evidently had his wires crossed. 1t
is Senators and not Presidents who
have to put up the stuff as rule to
get there. Few of our Presidents
have been rich men. Grant, Gar
field, Harrison and Cleveland were
all men of modest fortunes. Cleye-
land, it is true, came outrIch, but he
went in poor. And Mckinley was
worse than any of them, for he not
only had nothing, butowed $l1S,000|
to those who paid his debts for him
year or two before. Growing
eloquent as he proceeded, Col. Wool
bridge declared: "Who did Sam.
vote for anyway? He says he.
didn't vote for Bryan because he
was a poor man. Then who did he
vote for, as Bryan was the only
man on the track who paid any
taxes at all. Mckinley was insthe
hands of an assignee, and Palmer
is even now begging for a pension
of $4,000 month to keep him from
suffering in his old age. If he was
hunting rich men to vote for, he
surely didn't find them in that as
sortment.
Col. Lem Mckee said Bro. Jones
was not always consistent. One
night he eulogized Abe Lincoln for
being rail-splitter, and the next
night sneered at Bryan for being
poor but honest.
At this point President Bassett
cut off the discussion by ruling it
out of order, as he was afraid some
of the colonies might say something
I.if they continued to talk.
After appointing committee to
investigate a report that the
groundhogs had spoiled the weather,
the club adjourned until smother
night.
