He Is Loyal, but He Is Greatly
Troubled.

Ny Dear Mr.. President: Three
years ago, when the skies were SO
dark for me that I was about to take
contract for splitting fence rails for
and couldn't raise a dollar for poker
or my pew rent, You appointed me
postmaster of this town of Jericho.

had my aspirations, but they did
not soar higher than being elected
constable and wearing a nickel star
on my conspicuous breast.
The claims of IA different citizens
were being urged for the appointment.
with Deacon Valley in the lead He
had forwarded documents proving
that an uncle of his had fallen at
Bunker Hill. Bets of three to one
were being made that the deacon
would get the job.
Did Bunker Hill count with you
Not a blamed count
You figured it out that Bunker Hill
was a back number-that il WASH I
much of a scrap anyhow-that the
Valley who fell there might have been
running away when he keeied over,
and that it wasn't my fault that all
the Pinkhams in the country at the
time were not on the spot to pour
out their gore
The appointment was mine I went
over to the office and took the post
master by the neck and bounced him
out, and 20 minutes later was giving
out pIum-coIored trading stamps with
every letter mailed
You know the rest, Mr.. President
how I reached the head by leaps and
bounds until I had the very front pew
in my church. and no one dared start
a horse trade without consulting me.
It is that way today.
I am the It of Jericho
