paw like tiger HOW maybe it was like
lion; yes, now | come to think of II, It
was like a lion and we thought for
time he had great love for the audience,
and was gojugtO announce the following:
Expand thy wings. celestial dove
As broodiug o er our natures night.
But he didn't, and sang the song above
alluded to. "Cap'n Goge" gave his
hearers to understand he wished they
were all under the protecting 9gis of the
Bull Moose. Mr.. Eastburn is a fine
speaker, Oratorically, his language is best
described by a citizen wha heard him
speak. Said he, Il listened to Mr.. East
burn while he belabored Taft, but when
he commenced on Woodrow Wilson and
called him iackass, left and went
home After Mr.. Eastburn was done
speaking, "Cap'n Goge' made a few
other remarks, i'll which Ire did not say
that few months ago he was asking
President Taft for the appointment as
Custom House officer at Wilmington, nor
hat he was a candidate for the nomina-
ion for County Treasurer at the Bull
Moose convention few weeks ago; nor
hat he has hopes, should the unexpected
happen and Col. Roosevelt be elected to
he presidency, of getting an appoint
nent as Captain of the Atlantic Ocean. " 4
lie would have few competitors for the
asst mentioned place.
