Dame Nation of red Kansas
BY all her ribbons sworo
That hor bewhiskered ncighbors
Should qucnch their thirst no moro!
She smashed glass and chowcd it,
And spat the pieces out,
And tore out punches of her hair,
And flung them forth upon tho air,
And fiercely danced about.
The bourbon and tho lager
AFRO pouring out amain
From Franks Buffet and Georges Place
TO irrigato the plain;
And many costly mirror
Is cracked in forty ways,
And all her actions arc designed
TO frighten and amaze.
Tho sheriff hurrics forward
And bids her cease space;
She pulls his cars aud twcaks his nose
And roughly slaps his face!
She rips the bar to pieces
And knocks out all the bungs,
And, round about, five hundred mon
Stand with protruding tongues.
She grasps tho tall cops whiskors
Within her goodly clutch,
And pulls them from his system,
And whoops to beat the Dutch!
Her hands are full Of splinters,
She feels thcm not, nor cares,
But keeps right on proceeding
TO regulate affairs.
And when her work is ended
Tho men who stand around,
And, signing, see her cat the hoops
by which the casks were bound,
Speed of in all directions
Aud thank their lucky stars
That they may still got thirsty
And drink ut other bars.
All, may her muscle ever
Bulge till her fight is won,
For, oh, wot she'll need lot
Before the job is done!
Hurrah for Mrs. Nation
Ten thousand times hurrah
For her who in hor good right hand
Can swing the fcarsn me brickbat and
Herself become tho law!

HOG ClIOLERA.

HOG CHOLERA.
DR.. II. j. Dodge, of Hamilton, Hi
nois, writes as follows to the Iowa
Homestead on the subject Of hog
cholera:
| deem it my duty to give to the
public (free) my recipe for the cure
of what is termed hog cholera. |
have used this remedy for thirty five
years, and raised hogs on my ranch
in Nebraska and never lost hog.
l have experimental 10y placing
one well hog with lot of sick ones,
and keeping it well by the use Of
this remedy. You will confer great
favor upon the farmers of our coun-
try by publishing this recipe in full.
| am now engaged in other business,
and have been for sixteen years, and
am willing to let others prosper by
the long years Of experience of mine
with a remedy discovered myself
for the cure of this dreaded disease.
The prescription and directions
are as follows:
Arsenic, one-half pound cape
aloes, one-half pound blue vitriol,
c-fourth pound black anthony,
one ounce. Grind and mix well the
remedy before using. The following
are the directions for using:
|. Sick hogs in all cases to be
separated from the well ones, and
placed in dry pens with only five
large hogs weight in each pen.
Q. Feed nothing but dry food, but
no water, only slop containing the
remedy until cured.
3. When hogs refuse to eat, turn
them on their backs, and then, with
{" long handled spoon, put the dry
medicine down their throats.
4. Dose for large hogs One tea
spoonful three times day for three
days, then miss one day, and repeat,
amount until cured. Shoats and
pigs one. half the amount.
5. AS preventive, one teaspoon
ful once week, will keep your hogs
in healthy condition to take on fat.
can place one well hog in a pen
with one hundred sick ones, and
with this remedy keep him well. |
let no other stock but hogs have ac-
cess to this remedy, as it is TO them
deadly poison.
DIR. Dodge adds that for many
years he sold his recipe for 50, and
treated hogs at the rate OF 81 per
head, paying the owner 10 cents a
pound for all that died after treat
ment began.
raise and fattcn from 300 to 500
hogs every year, and consequently
have had some experience with hog
cholera. separate the well hogs
from the sick ones; give them clean,
healthy quarters, and feed carbolc

full of thin swil, milk or water.

COLORADO LOSES THE G. A. k.
NATIONAL ENCAMPMENT

St Louis, Jan. 22.-Cleveland was
yesterday selected by the council of nd
ministratiOn of the Grand Army of the
Republic for the next annual encamp-
inent. to be held the week of Septem-
Der 8, 1901.
AS result of this action representa-
tives of Denver indicated that they in
tended to take up the matter with the
various state departments. and would
also hold an encampment the second
week of September.
The meeting of the council held yes
terday was the result of the failure of
Denver to satisfy the council at its
December meeting of the city's ability
to meet the requirements of one-cent
per mile railroad rate. Cleveland,
PfttsbUrg and Denver sent delegations
to yesterdays meeting to plead for the
sending of the encampment to their
cities. The Cleveland delegation offer
ed the written pledge of the chairman
of the Central Passenger Association
of one cent per mile to the encamp-
ment; promised to raise the necessary
money to meet the expenses of the ell
campment, offered free quarters in 100
school houses for the old soldiers, to
arrange the line of march TO suit and
produced written pledges.
The delegation representing Pitts
burg, too, pledged n onc-cent n mile
rate, hotel accommodations, subscrip-
tions and met the other requirements
of the encampment. Denver's appli-
cants for encampment honors produced
letters from Chairman Mcleod Of the
Western Passenger Association. prom
ising the one-cent fare on six railroads.
In addition they made the necessary
promises as to accommodations and en-
tertainment. The written pledge of
Chairman Mcleod, they claimed met
all the requirements of the resolutions
regarding rates adopted in Chicago nj
the thirty-fourth annual encampment.
Half an hours discussion resulted in
the selection of Cleveland, the vote be
ing five for Cleveland, two for Denver
and one for Pittsburg. The Denver
committee at once held secret meet
ing
That they We're disappointed and
angry over the outcome of their efforts
to secure the encampment for Denver
was plainly expressed. At the end of
a half hours deliberation the following
statement was prepared:
"rhe national encampment of the G..
A. H.. at Chicago last year voted unan-
imously to hold the encninpment in
Denver this year provided the rail-
roads leading thereto granted n rate of
one cent mile The Denver commit.
tee filed to-day with the commanner-in-
chief and the executive committee oiii-
cial notice by Chairman Mcleod of the
Western Passenger Association, pro-
mitigating the one cent per mile rate
on the shortest mileage of all the prin-
cipnl railroads leading TO Denver from
st. Louis, Chicago. st. Paul and all
Missouri river points. This rate has
been promulgated for the Denver G. A.

rate for Denver has been accomplished
much earlier than ever before, and
in territory where The rate has never
before been made. The Denver COM
mittee feel that they have fully COM
piled with the regulations of the ma
tional encampment Mt Chicago, and are
entitled to the meeting this year, and
they are well advised that the sentl-
ment of the grand encampment
throughout the conutry is favorable to
Denver.
"The different state departments will
probably take up this matter and de-
eide whether they will still adhere to
their unanimous action mt Chicago in
favor of Denver for the encnmpment
September next"
The work of endeavoring TO win
over the various departments east Of
the Mississippi river will be COM
menced at once, so the Denver COM
mittee stated last night.
Commander-in-chief Rassicur was
handed Il copy of the statement issued
by the Denver committee. Before
reading 1t he called the committee to-
gcther. explained that the statement
was in existence and then read 1t.
The contents of the document pro-
duced some little feeling of momentary
character. which resulted in the coun-
ell considering the document behind
closed doors. Ten minutes later the
following was given out by Command
er Rnssieur, speaking for and with the
sanction of the council:
II have Just read what You inform
me emanates from the comrades rep
resenting Denver. II is hard to be-
lieve that such a statement cmanates
from n good Grand Army comrade.
Assuming that 1t does, ! desire simp-
ly to state that the executive commit
tee, with the light before II and after
having given Denver two hearings and
weighing everything presented by 1t.
decided that tho next encampment of
the Grand Army should he held at
Cleveland, Ohio, September D, 1901.
AT that encampment this commit
tee will report the facts which led
them 80 the action taken, and every
Grand Army comrade win doubtless
heartily approve of that action. We
have endeavored to do what Is best
for the Grand Army, and in compli-
ance with the action of the thirty
louTlh nauoHil tHcainpHltit. Hol-
withstandlng the statement made
which 1t is said emanates from the
Denver comrades"
1t is said that individual members OF
the council We're unwilling 10 discuss
the manifesto as they termed the
document issued by Denver. They de
clared the Denver people Were mis-
taken when they thought they had
the promise Of the Pennsylvania and
New York departments 10 go TO Den
yer, and Were certain that none OF the
departments would refuse 10 attend
the rncampment at Cleveland.
Its certain that II they do have an
encampment 1t will not he the nation

the manner in which one dismissed
the subject.
