have been as fatal to the organ BUSH

might perhaps show many points of re-
semblance between the party organ and
these two varieties of nocturnal marau-
ders. But suffice it that the course OF
events has relegated the organ to rural
environment and designated the county
printer and the fourth-class postmaster
to run the instrument. 1t Is true that
in some of the cities newspapers that
still pose as organs may occasionally
be found. AS Charles Sprague said OF

untamed, untamable progenitors.
