Judgment,

Sometimes you judge men by their
wealth,
Sometimes by their attire,
Sometimes by energy and health,
Which most of us admire.
But as election day draws nigh
And banners bravely float,
You judge a fellow mortal by
The way he's going to vote.

real fight kept thousands away.

present congress have been asked why
they are so vigorous in their dealings

power" said one today If the Re
publicans we're in power we would

power to grant what we want, and
