The whiskey faced jackass who
was heard cursing the democrats for
joining in with the repu blicans, or
some of them, Ito increase the old
soldiers pensions, doubtless has not
read enough in all his life to know
that tens Of thousands Of democrats
fought on the Federal side, and had
they not, it would have been fire
politics.

year for staying in the rear and
advieing;a congressman $500 for

legal side Of country washed clean
of its filth by loyal human blood =,
why not give the poor old patriots
most all Of whom have bayonet or
bullet wounds-men who did tho

Something out of the ordinary is
always occurring in this big couutry

Negro boy saw fool do foolish
thing. and laughed, and the fool
because be is called white, sho. and
killed the little boy. Following that
q Negro Was charged with commit
ting grave crime, and was Jailed
when the cracker army marched and
asked for the keys, The sheriff
refused to give them up,and declared
he would shoot the first man who
attempted to take his prisoner out OF
jail. At it they went and off went
the sheriff's gun and down to death
went a cracker, The sheriff was
shot, but not killed. 1t is 60 all over
the World-one day brute kills az
innocent Negro. and the next day q
white man gives his life for a Negro.
How glorious it would be il the Ne
