The Knocker.

You may find him most anywhere,
but in our town he is six foot in his
stockings when he has any-long and
lean and lank. Like superannuated
circus animal he has contracted the
habit of sitting down. He sees every
thing through somber glasses. When
the sun shines from cloudless sky it
is just the precursor Of coming storm.
We shall never see such high prices for
fInt again. The old style of letting
the moss grow on the trees suits his
taste. Spraying and cultivating are all
folishness. 1t doesn't pay.
He never contributes cent for The
mental, moral or material advance
ment of his town except what is wrung
out of him by taxation. No trains or
mails miss his scrutiny and yet he has
little direct interest in either. Hard
times comes knocking at the door and
finds ready response from the knock-
er for he seems to revel in the thought
that everything is going to the bow
vows. He is never happy unless he is
miserable. He thinks it is mean
trick for the Governor of Oregon to tie
up the banks so he cant get his money.
And the bankers are all rascally scoun-
dres for not keeping the depositors
money lying up Oh The shelf till called
for.
Josh Billings said the worst thing
about mosquito is that you can't take
gun aud shoot it. And the worst
thing about knocker is that You can't
shoot him, for its against the law in
Oregon. We can only wait in patience
till we can dig hole 3x7 and cover
him up out of sight.-Ex.
