"rOMv JoHNsoN,s BOOM.

Tom" johnson, who was recently
elected mayor of Cleveland by ire
mendous majority, was "born and
bred in Kentucky and Henry Wat
terson says this is lucky. johnson
left the blue grass region barefoot
boy and is now a millionaire. Ken
tuckians are proud of him, and Wat
terson, in the Courier-JournaI, con-
tinues to boom him for the presi-
dency. But the Kentucky colonel
puts some high barriers in the Ohio
ans way, suggesting that eff Tom
johnson is elected governor of Ohio
next fall, and if, two years later, hav-
ing made a good governor, he holds
down his Job, all will be over for 1904
but the shouting. Put that in your
cob pipe and smoke it, you copper
heads"
Meanwhile. adds the prophet,
''Jet the boys in the trenches pray
that it may be so; that this chip of 8
sound old Kentucky block, born in
Dixie, blessed by Indiana and blazed
forth a leader in Ohio-this Cousin
Tom johnson of Ours who went
hence barefoot to come back with a
pocket full of buckeyes and something
to spare besides, may sweep the state
of Ohio as he has swept the city OF
Cleveland; that he may fight and win
the ante-presidential battle of 1908,
and that, repeating the story of Til
den and Cleveland before him, he may
finally come to his kingship, at the
head ola mighty host of democrats.
