bank Runs for Sheriff.

"Hello Hank! What's wrong?"
said I one day on meeting that
individual. II amt had chance
to speak to you sfor two weeks.
Every time saw you, you we're
tearing over the landscape like a
coyote with paper bag tied to
it's tail. Let's hear all about it."
"Well, Bub,:I have got bee in
my bonnet. Oh, you needn't get
hostile; this is a political bee and
it doesn't sting
Don't sting!'' said I. why, g
have heard that a bee of that kind
could sting a big hole in a mans
lpocketbook.'
"Maybe it can, lBub, fbut I have
got it; SO there is no use trying to
back out. I'm -on the ticket for
sheriff. Oh, you needn't laugh.
son. I suppose you are thinking
of all the didos you will cook up
and the games you will play on
me, but you won't have time to do
anything but work. Now here is
my proposition. If you will go
among the boys and electioneer
for me, I will appoint you deputy
sheriff in case I'm elected.
Call right, Hank; I'm it. When
and where do I start?''
Commence right now. Go
to the Big F ranch and see the
boys; then make a trip to the 20
and the xxx ranch and see Tom
Blake. If you can get Tom to
support me, you can be pretty sure
of the rest of that outfit. Don't
go near the A-C, because the
Frenchman that is running against
me works there. The chances are
that you would get a black eye
and would have to hike home, too. "
That night.I rode over to the
Big F turned my cayuse into the
corral and then went into the
clubhouse. The boys were swap
ing lies and doing round-u ups all
over again. I listened to the pla-
YER awhile and then preached the
subject of election. Well, sir,
they just went into catniptions
and Topped all over each other
laughing. They thought it was
the best joke that ever happened.
When Bill Blivingsgot SO he could
talk, he got up on the table and
made speech.
Boys" said he, 1--WE don't want
i Hank for sheriff. He is q good
man, but he is too tender-hearted.
The first thing that we would have
to do would be to plant him, and ]

the most of it,

and held meeting; then the mem-

[ went home. One of the boys
went to Shelby to interview the
justice Of the peace. When I got
home I went after Hank good and
strong for sending me out election
eering for him before he had been
or sworn in. There we're
about fifty of the boys at Shelby
when we arrived, and each one
looked as solemn as tho he was at
q funeral. We went in where the
justice was, and Hank looked as
pleased as the pup that tipped the
beehive over.
Hank said the justice, when
we swear man in we usually have
a bigger book, but I reckon this
will do. 1t is Ayers almanac of
four years ago. It's the only book
in the courtroom. Place your
right hand on it. and when you
answer, say lido Do you solemnly
swear to do your duty no matter
what occurs? Would you arrest
Bill Blivings if he lifted any stock,
and would you arrest Bub or any
of the Big F boys if they got on a
tear and started to shoot up the
town."
swell, judge, I reckon I can
swear when I get hostile, whether
it is solemn or not I don't know.
As for Bill, I would arrest him
anyhow as soon as l am elected.
But l wouldn't arrest Bub or any
of the Big F boys if they was only
blowing off steam
"That's all right for that part of
it, but can you figure?''
"Yes, a bit" said Hank.
"Well, answer this: If the divi-
den was so small you couldn't see
it, and the subtrahen was little
smaller, how much would the CON-
phehen be?"
SWELL, judge, if you had put
that example in horses, I might
have figured it; but l can't figure
in hens. 1 have seen everything
from a mudhen to bullfrog, but
|doggone my hide I never seen OF
