all other classes of criminals arc TO be
found In Zion. and despite the fact that
this statement has received tho indorsc
ment OF The Prophets infallble mouth
piece. tho shcriH's nfty great Sherlocks
have been unable to locate one blood :
thirsty holdup, and have found no trace
of tho porch climbers and the long-hn =
gcrcd gentry don't seem to exist IN
Zion as far as the fifty bloodhounds arc
concerned. and the only cause FOR the
supposed stupendous criminal warc that
the fifty political hirelinGs can uncarth

hireling seemed TO take an pnholy DE,

brought before a Justices court: while

and who turned their ouesti9nanie adj
