always go together.
The kick of the political mud-gun
is sometimes more effective than it's
aim.
Mr.. Roosevelt is A years of age.
His policy Of the 4-11-44.
Tom Johnson is hiring men to ask
prearranged questions at his circus
meetings.
One way to assume an air OF dis
tinction is to spell your name with
a freak twist. This is almost as eff
fective as the hyphen.
A cave full of fossil remains Of the
great cave bear has been discovered
near Baird, Cal. When the anti
quarians of the future dig into the
grave Of the democratic party, they
will find lot Of dried homes of ex-
tinct political theories.
The democrats are chasing rain
bows as usual, but there is more
red in them this year.
IT am a democrat" has been
amended by Mr. Hill and now the
the legend is, II am weathervane. :"
There are clouds on the political
horizon, but they will bring refresh
ing showers of votes to the republi
can soil.
If there are democratic gains on
Nov. 4th, it will be the fault of
those republicans who have not
patriotism enough to go to the polls
and vote.
IF you want to utterly incapaci-
tate Congress for the enactment of
necessary laws, cast your vote to
elect a democratic House of Repre-
sentatives- stay from the polls.
Obi Fatty Tom johnson is stump
ing the West,
In all of Ohio his autos the best;
He lags not in politics, he spares not
to spend,
But the devil can't tell where Tom
Johnson will end.
Don't forget to vote. If you are
not interested in local or national
issues you at least owe q vote of
confidence to the president who
settled the cogl strike, who COM
pleted the pacifcation of the Philip
pines and who is SO ably administer
ing the affairs of the nation.
Birdie Coer with ten thousand men,
Marched up to Hill and then marched back
again;
The Hill was full of coal-pits beneath some
rotten plankS,
And Birdie gets his troubles from Ccler's
speech of thanks.
Democratic hopes for success this
year are more preposterous than
they usually are. The success of a
few democrats here and there will
mean nothing for that party, only a
little pie for the particular candi-
date. The country at large will be
better off if the republicans return
a large majority to congress, as in
that case something can be done
besides flibustering
The democr attic emblems, as men all know
Are the jaCkaSS with his bray and the
rooster with mis- crow:
But the meaning of these ornaments
Is known to but few.
The bray stands for their arguments
And the crow is used for stew.
Don't forget that Mr.. J. Pierpont
Morgan has refused to contribute to
the republican campaign fund and
it is believed is contributing to the
democratic House of Representa-
tives there will be no possibility of
anti trust legislation. And too, he
wishes to rebuke Theodore Roose-
welt for standing by the people.
When wordy Bryan stoops to folly
And finds too late that words betray; ,
What art can Soothe his melancholy,
What charm can take his loss away?
The only art his loss to cover,
To help himself and hurt his way,
Is printing cheStnuts ever, ever,
And growing Commoner every day.
There is a gentleman who re-
joices in the anthracite name of
Kohl who is running for Congress
out in the wilds of Ohio. His sole
claim to notoriety is that if he is
elected he will attend the receptions
at the White House without a dress
