Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1899-12-01
Brother Taber Writes.

100 per cent in the last year. Last year Their
was one Socialist vote; this year there wer
two. Now let the two old blood stained, hu
manity destroying, detestable frauds, Repub
licanism and Democracy, tremble in their boots
Their time is up. Their doom is sealed. Al
epitaph is in order now.
None will mourn and none regret
The end of this double curse
For whatever comes, it's safe to bet
That nothing can be worse.
Scat Make room for peace.
Now, l ask, in my very respectful way, why
is it that Mahommedans are not forever, eter
nally and everlastingly cutting each Others
threats, like Christians are? Is it because
Christians are the most savage, cruel, brutal
blood thirsty demons on earth Past history
and present facts condemn you, Mr.. Christian,
and if you don't like TO hear these things, you
must quit doing them, or will go tc Turkey
and get some missionaries to come and try to
civilize you fellows and your Christian presi-
dent. You need it badly. Civilized humanity
cannot endure you much longer.
o yes | am aware that you are trying to
unite your scattered forces for the purpose OF
establishing universal war and universal de-
struction, but you can't do it. Remember that
it was eternal law that scattered you into about
seven hundred different brands, breeds or fac
tons, and that grand law is still at work. You
can't repeal that law, but you can ignore its
blessings and incur its penalties. Natures
grand remedy for great evils is dilution and
diffusion. Dissolve and scatter is the practice.
Now, look around you, my Christian friend,
and see how we'll that grand law has done its
work, and take hint as to future results. Re-
member please, am not that law | am mere
" telling you of it, and l would not need to
tell you if you would only quit believing long
enoung to KNOW something for yourself
Now, honest Injun, don't you think we have
had bloody glory enough Don't you think
we have made widows and orphans enough?
Don't you think we have sold unborn children
enough into bond slavery? Don't you think
we have destroyed wealth enough that was Gre
ated by labor ? And, finally, don't you think
it would be good idea to take our Christian
president by the nape of the neck and seat of
the breeches and toss him into the Atlantic
ocean? 1t might cool his frenzed blood, though
there would not be water enough to wash away
his crimes.
And now comes Governor Shaw, and says,
or said, in pubic speech, at Oelwen, Iowa,
that he was glad tC see so many children that
he wished there were more children; that the
market needs more children that the people
ought to fit their children for the market, the
same as their cattle and horses, wheat and corn.
think that is about cool as liquid air, when
taken in connection with the wellknown, bond
forging slave-sellng propensities of Repub-
icansm.
Now get hustle on you, you great big
American sovereign galoot and raise and
properly fit more children for the Republican
slave market. That is about all you are fit for,
or you would get into better business. But
you admire yourself, and your masters admire
you semi occasionally, when they want your
vote or your children. They know they will
get both, and know it, too; hence this labor
ed effort of mine to show my great respect for
you. VIM. j. IABER.
P S. | send this direct to the 'boss" think
ing it better be stuck in the kitchen stove than
dropped in the waste basket-it might ignite
the other foo!ishness and cause a premature
conhagraton The general s.nashup is not
due until next year.
