Men with men fight
A hand to hand tight;
Each claiming lie is right.
Sword against sword clash,
Tongue to tongue slash.
Every thing seems going RASH.
Whether for veal or woe
Warfare a continued flow;
But ere long wrong must go.
Each anxious to win
One to crush growing sin.
When did this conflict begin?
" hen the first town was made
Under Atchisons shade;
Houses made with AK and spade.
How long did this conflict last?
think l hear you ask
Well, that puts me to task.
Eighteen fifty-four in May,
" hen all the world was gay;
The national congress did say
This territory is open for settlement.
Now begins this discomfort
Between men of varied bent.
The years of struggle not score
How many? Two times tour?'
Not quite; lose one inure.
The weather now grew cold;
The anti-slave men more bold:
Which sway, the rignl might mold.
I'll January twenty ninth it run,
Eighteen hundred aud sixty one;
When men discarded all fun.
This no longer d territory
No battlefield sad and CORY
But state of freeeom and glory.
1t constantly improved
With the van it has moved.
Good women and great men
Schools and churches recommend
And all good firmly defend.
Kansas Is aged forty-four
No less and no more
Next Sunday and not before.
January the twenty-ninth day
Nineteen hundred and FIVE we say,
Whether the sky be blue or gray.
SNOW FLAKE
