ILLUSTRATORS SHADE.

Say, George, illustrious shade. Of better dust than modern mada. What do you think? Are we gezink2 Have the special interests got us Where the hair is short. And on the necks of the People. Proudly now cavort?
 Has the rank micrObe of Mammon Affected conscience till The Nation as q bOoy Will lie and steal and kill? In your days. George, you had 4 copious wad
 And miles Of sod, And still were not so bad: And is the curse Any worse This very minute Than when yOu were in it9 Perhaps if you came back-but, nay, You stay
 Right where you are, Thou undinmed star. F. gosh,
 You're the clean Wash, NO matter what we are. But do you really think
 We are so darn gezink To-day? aay2 ". J LANIPTOS
