Mexico weekly ledger. (Mexico, Mo.) 1855-1956, 1908-07-30
Bryan and Taft

In this age OF manicured mentality
much that used to be is changed. The
uncalloused conscience OF the rich
whose Golfers overflow with tainted
lucre have become imbued with the
endowment habit and an education is
easier to get than lighting Jag in o
Kansas town, The accessibility Of
the brain curry-comb and brush makes
the success Of those who sought
knowledge without the customary
weapons bound In cloth and with high
browed scouts with Phi, d. tackled to
their names all the more commend
able.
Dr. d. J, Kanaly, better known as
the Sage Of East Lake, is one-of those
wanderers in the realm OF learning
who entered the jungle Of astrology
and philosophy alone and unaided and
has escaped with but few mental
scratches.
The Doctor contends he has read
nothing concerning the two candidates
for presidential honors and with this
assertion fresh on his lips presents the
Ledger with horoscopes of Bryan and
Taft. Politically the Doctor refuses
to advance any ideas stating he re-
serves that privilege until later when
they will be given to the Associated
Press alone. This will preclude any
publication securing scoop and every
publication Of any note In the country
will have them upon the same day.
Nevertheless the Doctor has conde-
scended to allow the Ledger to pub
lish the following thoughts CLEANED
his speech to delivered at East Lake
pavilion Immediately following the
election this fall.
A poor politician calculates his
opponents abilities by his own limi-
tationS.
1t takes the yellow cur Of the alley
to think he can get the blue ribbon
from the thoroughbred winner.
When a man attempts to convince
the public be usually sprains his own
ideas
The black sheep may become the
leader In the flock IL he can convince
others that his color is fashionable.
You can make more enemies for your
rival by praislng him. Bury the ham
mer.
The proverbial SNOWFALL In hades
bas less chance to melt than poor
man has to wln In politics.
