come into the Republican party and he

to do it There is a little railroad down
in southern Minnesota, in n district rep
resented by one of my collca CUES, "a few
miles long. with n daily mixed train that
always gets to its destination too late
for u connection.
l. lady who was riding on this train one
day complained to the conductor that tie
train was going too slow, and finally, af-
ter many opportunities, asserted that
she could walk faster than the train was
going. The conductor retorted by asking
her why she did not get off and walk,
