The Monticellonian., 1906-03-29

The managers and heads of depart ments held meeting to devise some way to get both classes interested, and everybody was asked to state their views After they all got through talking pa asked me what I thought would be the best way to get the peo- pie excited about the show, and I told him there was no Way except to inject 2 little politics into it. l said if they would give me $50 or so, to buy Chi nese lanterns, and about a hundred complimentary tickets to give away, pa and I could go 70 Atlanta a couple of days ahead of the show and we could organize a Roosevelt club among the negroes, and a Bryan club among the white fellows, and at the evening performance we could have the two clubs march into the main tent. one from the main entrance, and one from the dressing room, with Chinese Ian terms, and one could veil for Roosevelt
The Monticellonian., 1906-03-29

and the other for Bryan, and advertise that great sensation would be sprung at the evening performance l said the tent wouldn't begin to hold the peo Ile.
 Every one of the managers and heads of departments said it would be great stuff. Pa was the only one that kicked. He said th2 two processi9ns might get into a fight, but said what if they did we wouldn't be to blame Let 'em fight if they want to, and we can see fair play.
 So they all agreed that pa and should go to Atlanta ahead, and or sanize the political nIocessions, and. say, we had such q ;ime that the cir Gus came near never getting out of the town alive. We overdid the thing so they wanted to lynch me, and pa want e1 to help.
 The way it was was this way: Pa was to organize the white men for Bryan, and l was to organize the ne- groes for Roosevelt and we went to work and bought 600 Chinese lanterns. and pa stored his half of the lanterns in a barn on the circus lot and stored mine in another barn owned by a ne- ZIG that I gave five dollars to be my axsistent, with promise that he

need to do was to yell for Teddy when did, and so we mar3aed to the main tent about the time the performance got to going. 1 saw pa with his gang Ct white men go Into the dressing room at about the same time. The manager had timed 1t for us to come in about S:30. into the main tent when the elephants were in their pyramid act, so my crowd of negroes stopped in the menagerie tenl half an hour waiting to be called.
 1 wish 1 wasn't so confounded curi- GUS, but I suppose I was born that way I took one of the Chinese lan- teIns that was not lighted and just thought I would like to see what the hyenas and the big lion. who were in the same cage, with an iron partition between them, would do if a Chinese lantern was put in the cage, so l got the fellow that watches the cage to open up the top trap door and l dropped a Chinese lantern with hor- nets nest in it right between the two hyenas. Gee, but you ought to have seen them bounce on l., and bite it and tear it up, and then the hornets woke up, and they didn't do a thing to that mess of hyenas. The hyenas set up a grand bailing sign Of distress, and

to appoint my negro assistant to po- sition in my cabinet, cause he is the greatest political organizer I ever saw. He rounded up over 200 cotton pickers and negro men who work in the freight depots once ia while and started them out after hornets nests. He gave them some change to get d drink. and promised them free passes into the show the next night, and the aeXt morning they showed up with hornets nests enough to scare you. They put them in dark place in the barn. so the hornets wouldn't get curi- GUS and want to come out of the nests before they got their cue.
 That afternoon we fitted them into the Chinese lanterns, and tied sticks on the lanterns and fixed the candies. and when night came there were more negroes than I could use But told them to follow along, and the door tender would let them in. and all they

should have job travelling with the show, to milk the sacred COW 1 told this negro what the program was, and that I wanted 200 negroes who had an ambition to be politicians, and hold office, and I would not only pass them into the show free, bat see that they got a permanent office What we had got to do said, was to stampede the white procession, that would be led b.. pa, and the way to do it was for every negro in my party to skirmish around in the woods and find a hor nets nest and bring ir to our barn, and fit it into one ol the Chinese Ian terms, and fix a candle on top of the nest, while the hornets were asleep.
