The rough riders went out to West
phalia, Monday evening, and they and
a lot of Bryan boys had a mud-ball
battle. The Westphala boys say the
rough riders tried to take the town."
and that didn't suit theWestphalia boys
The rough riders shouted for Mckinley,
and the Westphalia boys cheered for
Bryan. Both sides yelled till they were
hoarse, but the Bryanites had the best
lungs, and finally won in the yelling con-
test. Then both sides got 'riled," and
the Westphalia boys threw mud balls
at the rough riders. Both sides were
mad, but no gore was spilled.
