But what about INDIA"
They may send them there. but It
is very likely that its Republican
scheme to make people think they
don't know anything

been thinkin' of sending for my brother
Ezra, back in Pennsylvania, 10 come

careful management to keep him the

see Ezra I do wish he would come

Free Silver during the campaign. O.:

brother for some time, and then start
ed for BoonsviIle to get the evening
mail. Cynthia proceeded with the

ed, though humble her surroundings.
If Bryan was elected, Simon had said
everything would be changed, she
wouldn't have to drudge all her life
Nor did she believe that such a CO.
1amity ever could come, as the election
of Mckinley. which Simon had said
would mean that ..al1 but the classes
