poll?
It Lieutenant John won't back up
the statement that this is no ChaEe?
Il some OF the Dem. papers that talk
so glibly about s'a return to JeTer-
sonian principles can shut their eyes
and explain what they re driving at?
Whether most OF them wouldn's be
stumped to tell a Jeffersonian from
any other old Democratic principle
unless it had a label on it or the sig
nature blown in the bottle?
# the good old Jacksonian prin-
eiple, "To the victors belong the
spoils, +" isn't the article of faith they
all really believe in above allothers-
except when the Republicans win?
Ii the Democratic harmony lying
around loose isn't something beautiful
to contemplate?
Whether the present uation in the
opposition camp can be said TO illus
trate sshow sweet it is TO see brethren
dwelling together in unity?

long while back to tell about his eyes
having been in the same fix "since
Hannah crossed the BRIDGE?

to him and his friends to know that
his eyes aren It weak because of being
in a weak place?

tion in Office machine is about to do
big stunts in Iberville?

the PIaquemine bar enjoyed?
and Calvin is going to schWing
out of the parish superintendeney and
into the iudgeship?

smallest kind of worm left for any
little fish in the Iberyille pond TO
nibble on?
If Assumption John is going to be
frozen out also by the Plaquemine Of
feeholding trust?
Whether it isn't an edifying sight TO
witness the welding OF the Iberville
factions into the harmonious whole?

operation exenplifes the cohesive
power of public plunder?
If you heard of Caleb's hunt?

anything but his dogs

disguise?

he forgets to take along parp?
