unkel IKE Semore seq it beers like
tney are more polatix in the Republican
party than he ever knowd it to be; and
there Is seven or ten men down to Leon,
ana anuthern at the town Nv Burling.
ton, altogether what Unkel like calls
the auonet Il. fellers, what goes rite on
nomlnatin Guvners and fixin up plat
forms in spite of anybody. Now UnkeI
axe SEE dubbed II, stands for sum kind
NV corpratlon, but he don't no whuther
the pig steal trust owns it or not, or
Whuther IL IS EXACTLY cuntrold by Mark
danna, put he sea he bets if Mark duz
run 1t, that it's iron and steal both mix
ed.
Now they is man by the name NV
Cummlns what most ever body wants
fur Guvner, speshley the yung voters,
what Unkel like calls the A. b. c. fell
!ers. This here Cummins had a good
Dig majority wunst fur the senate, but
the bubble r. men fetcht in some kind
Nv slnch, and worried the Legislators
most powerful, and Unkel Zeke seq they
wooded our representative around till
they snatched him blame ny ball head
ed. but he wouldn't gum up. The dub.
bel Il. fellers SEE they don't want Cum
mns coz the Democrats wants him nom
mated, but the pint is Wifi Cummins
glts the nominashun lots Nv the dubbed
Il fellers are goin to bolt. fur they said
so, and if Cummins gifts beet the A. b. G.
fellers will lay rite down an take their
medison even if it's bittern gall, Jest
like they always do, but Unkel like seq
he cont spoze thayed care bout eatin
crow mourn 2 times in too yeers. This
Teller at Burlington is hlpnotyzer and
when the newspaper men leen out to-
wards the peepel, he calls EN- down to
his office and subsidies EN- with iron
an steal uccle like sez) and when thay
git back and mete any Nv the deer boys
what seam indisposed about korkesses
and SIGH, thay fix it up with fifty.cent
dollars for the boys to be there to hoop
EN- up for anything but Cummins.
Begolla Whopper Garrett cum clean
down frum Dee Moyn to "show EN-"
coz this is clost to Mosoora anyway,
an he did "show en-" that the ralerodes
pade on little over leven pur cent NV
actual property worth, and the farmer
pade on % pnr cent, but Unkel like
seq "Jee Whiz! we hearn SIGH stuff as
that when populizm was risen on her
zenith, an l'lI be gollsquizzled eff | didn't
spose them fellers wuz awl died."
A man what runs metropolitan
paper had bid on space to publish
sumthin frum the other side, but sum
NV the seven or ten fellers wuzent goin
to hav it that. way tall (now maybe
this haint SOY enyhow it wuz published
and Unkel like sez he don't no whuther.
'twuz coz he he'd EN- by the ellis or
whuther the editor wanted to Civ both
sides show, or whuther he wuz afeard
the Hull shootin match at THE REpoR-
TER Office would git after him an rip i'm
up the yertabray. Seems funny like to
see fellers in all townships what wants
office an don't no what side to drap
onto yet, and Uukel like seq the r. fell
lers sent a lawyer by the different
Parishes to offer sum A. b. 9. fellers
sum kind Nv Jim Squirt office in the
comm future if thayle help hxit, (seems
there's sumthin needs fxin sumwhere,)
but Unkel like sez these old fellers hez
run things long time and it's goin to
effal hard to make EN- let go, an thayre
now up to a skeem to freaze out our
present representative an git SUM sly
old Fox more worthy.
The last thing Unkel sod wuz.
IT tease Old :. fel4te efsi IS goin to win out
iur may JON 9h haf to be shode, so cum
916~n to Leon on the Goth an see EN-
fasten the Cats on the A. B. G. fellers
an give eln thayre DOSE" Hip, Hip.
