for the promotion, they felt that he
was justly entitled to it, and he has
ever since been the leading candidate
in the race Among the people who
could be counted upon TO support La
mar were nearly all the voters who
helped TO make Broward governor.
When Broward offered it handed up
to these people the proposition Of
sticking to their determination of re
Numbering their friends on the one
hand and backing up William b. La
mar. or turning from him and sup
porting Broward, thereby playing one
friend against anOther-a game that
always has and always will spell dis

clared they would not fOrsake Ia.
mar for Broward at this critical stage
of the game, no matter how much they
might be in favor of the latter's ad-
vancement, and it must be conceded
that in this they showed the fidelity
for which the laboring classes are
generally given credit.
Under the circumstances BrOward
was severely criticised for Quitting
into the race" when il looked good
to the people, and his advent only
muddled matters. Had he held of
and torn his shirt" TO elect Bill La
mar from west Florida, as he should
! have done, there is no power in poll
tics which could have prevented him
from succeeding Taliaferro in the next
| election, and be would have been
elected from his own district. II was
the opportunity of his life TO make
ten-strike politically, but il would
appear that he had been either slow to
appreciate the advantage this action
would give him, or that he has been
! ill-advised by some over-zealous pOlit-
ical adherents.
But, whatever may be said about his
entry into the race, and the handicap
it put on both he and Lamar, it is TO
| be deplOred that ne should nave
shown so much near-sightedness as to
fall into this last trap laid for him
Listening to the recommendations OF
officials whom public gossip says has
knives up their sleeves ready to give
him his political death-blow at any
moment-who are VIGOROUSLY at wal
with him, coupled with a hatched-uT
excitement forced upon a few street
car men for the occasion, he has gone

YAP- A-HOO-TEE
- AN INDIAN LEGEND TOLD THE SPIRIT OF MNNEHAWHAw

He's the first, last Hot To-malee,
He's the only pure tin Goblet,
Here's your motto: Trust in Yappy."
See him leaning on his clublet,
On his spear that knows no brother,
At his feet his faithful daschund,
BY his side his thrones successor,
Good old Gadabout the Fat One.
Lo, The war-canoes make ready,
Tho there is no sign of combat,
But the great Yap-a-hOO-tee wills it;
Knowing If you want a rumpus,
You can rile some other Injun,
BY chip upon your shoulder,
By show of bow and arrow,
BY 2 tomahawk and cou-stick,
And a scalping knife held ready.
What is that the thunder roaring?
Nay, It's only Yap-a-hOo-tee,
Just our zap sOlilOQuizing,
In the highways and the hedges,
In the forest and the meadows,
In the wickiups and lodges,
Hearken to his windy mouthings,
About everything and nothing,
Till somebody disagTeeing
With his wild and wOOly statements,
Wakes his wrath and loud he sputters:
Liar, liar, liar, liar,
Ananias, Judas, Jael,
Fral and foul prevariCatOT,
FalsehOOd maker and retailer,
Know that l alone am truthful,
Since that other perfect mortal,
Who was e'enmOst my equal,
Clipped a tree with childish Ratchet,
And cried: Pepper, Franklin done it,"
Hear the song of Yap-ahOO-tee,
Song of BATTLE and of bunCOmbe,
Song of cayuseless cowboy,
Suffering from paranOla.
"Once l was alone in Cuba,
And l fought my way unhindered
Up the blOodless Hill of Kettle,
To imaginary trenches,
And suppOsitiOus foemen,
Facing fierce, fictitious bullets,
Daring nOn-est bursting shrapnel
Thru hazy dream of carnage,
Reached the top, where never Spaniard,
Cooked a cannon or Mauser,
Since this globe first started twirling.
"a
Yet, | seemed to see a dago
And l somehow seemed to shoot him
In the back as he was fleeing
From My dental exhibition
And false, perjured' ghoul-like Clarence
Guessed that he had shot another
Then l wandered in the twilight
To San Juan and howed and hollered,
And sent of some press dispatches.
Next blew my breath out strongly,
While my tongue went wiggle-waggle,
While my goose quill writ roundrobins
Till the foe in Santiago,
Crossed himself and said Hail, Mary,
This is not a common wind-storm,
'Tis more like hot air-rOccO,
Sacramento, Sol-ferino,
Hi, COspettO Dam the GringO
We would better far surrender
Than be talked to death, by Jingo!'"

Handing out his CUFF in punches,
Scares to death most everybody,
Doesn't do a thing TO business,

OF the golden ovum gosling,

Stunned with words and wind and gable

Hide their yellow boys and green-backs
II their moccasins and stockings.
Once upon these shells and wam-pum,
Used by all the tribes for money,
Yap-a-hOo-tee found a motto
Telling of a God to trust in.
Yappy talked that motto silly,
Talked il deaf and dumb and batty,
Till the words, by words affrighted,
Fade into the great SkidOOward,
Where is nothingness forever.
Then he shrieked with war-whOop might

On June 6 the work of the readjustment managers will be so far completed as to permit the calling of a gen. eral meeting of stockholders in the new company for the election of board of directors, and a formal organization will begin the actual operation of the new system on the merger basis. Until then the con- duct of the two roads will continue practically as of old, notwithstand- ing the fact that the merger is an assured thing.
