A short time ago some men were
engaged in putting up telegraph poles
on some land belonging to an old
farmer who disliked seeing his wheat
trampled down. The men produced
paper by which they said they had
leave to put holes where they
pleased. The old farmer went back
and turned a large bull into the field.
The savage beast made after the
men, and the old farmer, on seeing
them running from the field, shouted
at the top of his voice: Show him
the paper Elk City (Kan.) Sun.
