shame to tn innicent cheeks av tn gr-
reat all-night Imporiums av our fair
city
"What right, ask, seq he, have these
disreputable pa-apers to print wan
wurrd agin tn brave, onselfish Off
shuls who are devotin' all their ATTN
ton to ruunin' tn city in tn INTERESTS
av their frinds? If tn saloons are run
min day an night an Sunday an ilic-
ton day, seq he, that's tn binness av
tn jaynial attorney av Dodge County.
He knows tn La-aw. If sthrong dhrink
is sold to school byes, what harum?
Why shud it be mintioned in tn week
ly pa apers, kept to imbarraSS tn adj
minis thration, an bring disgrace on
our city, an make tn offindin' saloon
saloon keepers more cautious. TIL Off
shul pa-aper av tn City Council an tn
Liquor Dealers Associashun don't print
thin things. If tn sthalls an wine
rooms are frequinted be byes and CUR
rls, an if whiskey an doped drinks is
sold to gur-rls an wimin; an if the chill
dher, they call tn Komical Kids, war
seen crawlin' along West Main sthreet,
bastely dhrunk, an if heads be split an
Inns broken in saloons, don't the City
Council see that tn offindin' pa-arties
get gintle slap on tn wrist.
Be hivens, SEE he, do tn the ititors
av these internal pa-apers want tn Blue
La-aws av tn Purithans FIR our dimmy-
cratic city? They've whit so fa-ar as
to advocate tn closin' av tn saloons at
ilivin o'clock ivry night; they want to
keep loafers off tn corners; they want
to close tn ice-crame parlors in tn
back rooms av tn saloons; they want
to sthop tn little innicent filtration
that's carried on be powdered lassies
on tn public sthreets; they want to pri-
vint tn angels that line tn curb, from
maxim rima- arks an salutin' iviry little
gurrl that passes by. They want to
kill personal liberty, they do. But, be
Cripes, me an me frinds, SEE he, get
tin mad, we'll run this town as we
Place; we'll run it to hell, SEE he, if we
want to. An amy wan or any pa-aper
that seq wurrd aginst us is liar, an
a thraitor an blackmailer an floa-
Their, an plug-ugly, an an Anerkist.
We II sthand FIR no cretycism av our ac-
tons, SEE he. Wild tn help av the at
thorney FIR Dodge County, an tn Off
shul pa-aper au' tn polls, We'll run tn
tn city to our own likin' an don't give
a rap FIR eny wan. To hell wild tn petit

published tomorrow night in tn Times.
An | want the iditor to make it as
sthrong as he can, an to insirt amy

to make a few rima-arks about that pc
tition."
An thin trimbling like June bug in
hurrycane, his Hanor sat down.
'Did Misther Kadin' make speech
too," said Hogan"
'Not much av wan," said Mr.. Doc
ley.
"'Twas tame afther tn MAYORS.
Byes, SEE he, this pitition war signed be
wan thousand an twinty nine vothers.
But tn majority av thin is floathers,

awful dhry work., they say. Besides
it's agin tn principles av free guver-
mint to have tn taxpayers ilict amy Of
