The Latest of the Races


You all have heard of Make Cobb
And Dan the record breaker.
Many laurels they have won
And neither was a faker
But | will tell you of a race
That skinned them half mile,
From short grass plains to Wash.
ington-
Be careful lest you smile.
Judge Martin started in the race,
With Jumbos black and white,
And the way some fellows whooped
and yelled
You'd tho't he'd win alright
For Neeley drove single mule,
Not fourteen hands his size,
And men were betting two to one !
The Judge would cap the prize.
Nod0ubt the Judge would get there:
None other was his dream.
The only reason he didn't
Was the fault found in his team.
The white one always took the lead
Was progressive, don't you see?f
The black one always stood his
ground
A standpatter sure was he.
AS George went plodding down the
lane
With his wonderful one mule shay
Every time he gained an inch
He held it to this dag.
But when the trials were thickest,
And hardest to surmount,
Was on the eighth ut
When the ballots were to count.
Somehow, as strange things happen
When least we th;nk they will,
A mighty great big snowbank,
AS big as any hill,
Had drifted by the roadside
Right where they had to go;
And George, by starting early,
Had passed the heap of snow.
The Judge came dashing onward,
In haste he sped along,
Nobody would'ye suspected
That anything was wrong.

When all at once Old BIacksy
Concluded to stand pat,
And White thought HE wouldn't,
So on he went like scat!
Just at this tragic moment
The snow came sliding down
And buried Judge and Blackie
Clean out of signt and SCUM
But White made his git-away,
by his progressive graces;
And seeing the progressive mule,
Close by his side he PAGES.
George you know S progressive, too,
And seeing how we'll they mated,
Rightt0 his cart he hitched the two
And drove off, much elated.
Soon they reached the Capital,
This trio most progressive.
Alas for Judge and Blackie
Whose friends were so transgressiye
They left them in the snowbank,
Where they started to stand pat,
And all who read this poem
Will know where they are at.
For / am one who watched the race,
From on the pile of snow;
And when | saw that it would slide,
To Blackie | said, whoa"
Now all you boys, who stake your
Cash
On chargers for the races,
If the stead is not progressive,
Don't gamble on his graces.
The hare and tortoise ran race
And the tortoise won the day;
Because he was progressive
And plodded on bis way.
But Master Hareie wasn't,
And stopped to take a rest,
While Mr. Tortoise was advancing,
Coming along his best.
And when he passed the standpat
hare
A'sleeping by the roadside;
He just kept ON progressing
Until the goal he spied.
This story is fable,
BY others called fake, Sir
But the one about George Neeley
Should surely take the cake, Sir.
