Of how they play and play and play,
And the teacher don't happen to see.
Now my advice to you boys is this,
To never an opportunity miss
Now mind this well!
And pay attention to what l have to
tell;
For nod, wink, and before you think
Here comes the teacher with that big
stick,
That awful, awful, awful stick!
And you get whipping most awful
quick.
So mind the rule when you're in School,
And never be noisy or rude
For small boys should always be good,
Or here comes the teacher with that
big stick,
That awful, awful, awful stick!
And you get whipping most awful
Quick.

JUDAS ISCARIOT LILLARD.

The penalty which the Repre-
sentative from Boyle county is
now paying should be a lesson
to never be forgotten by any
who in the future might be
tempted to betray a trust re-
posed in them by their fellow
men. E. w. Lillard was given
the high honor of representing
the county of Boyle in the Leg
islature. He bore the Democratic
banner from that grand old
county. He was instructed i'm
plicitly with it's care. The Dem
ocrats of that county, also as
sisted by Gov. Beckham and
others, worked diligently for his
election. He was pledged to
support Gov. Beckham, the Dem
ocrat nominee, for the United
States Senate. The stewardship
of Boyle county was placed in
his hands. And how did he
guard the trust? Instead of
keeping the banner high aloft
and floating to the breeze as the
day it was handed to him. he
trailed it in the slime and hand
ed it over to the enemy. He
cast the decisive vote which
elected Bradley to the United
States Senate. Is it any wonder
then that on his return to his
native heath, where he had been
honored and respected he found
himself dangling in effigy from
the limbs of a tree in the court
house yard, after which a mock
corners inquest was held over
the dummy; large banners float
ing across Main street with the
word ''Lillard and Traitors" on
It and other words such as How
much did you get and etc."
Spurned and despised among
he people who once honored
md respected him, and thus is

Oyster Bay, n. Y, Sept 21.-Late
today Secretary Loeb gave to the
press a formal statement by the pres
ident. which was called forth by the
recent exchanges between William R.
Hearst and Senator Foraker, of Ohio
Hearst, in public utterances had accu1-
ed the senator of relations with the
Standard II Company, inconsistent
with his duties as senator ana his
attitude as a representative of republi-
can policies and professions.
In .today's statement President
Roosevelt makes another appeal for
the support of Taft and declares his
defeat would bring Lasting satisfac-
Jion to but one set of men, namely
those men who. as shown in the cor
respondence published by Heart,
were behind Foraker, the opponent
of Taft within his own party, and who
are behind Governor Haskell and ais
associates, the opponents of Taft in
the opposite party"
The statement embodieS. a letter
written by Taft to a friend in Ohio
in July, 1907, in which the repubii-
can candidate refused to acquiesee in
the plan Of the Ohio central commit
tee to endorse Taft for the presidency
and Foraker for reelection 10 the SEN
ate in single FesclHtion frzREest

-has always been directly opposed to
that charged against Senator Foraker
