the Scaggs Greek section, was in
our town Tuesday, Our Brod-
head friend seems to jump the
subject of politics and is silent on
that subject, since the republicans
at Chicago got up to the glass
painted and powdered their faces
and curled their hair, and asked
the Bull Moose to come over and
make love to them. Well, it is all
over with them any way, for they
have called in the pail bearers and
they are now picking at the cover
which is a sure sign of death
Our Brodhead friend wishes to
cross swords with US concerning
our write-up of the road question
and thinks we tried to hand the
/ Fiscal Court lemon. We will
say in the outset that we hold each
i member of the Fiscal Court in the
4 highesf esteem and think they are
\ gentlemen, as some of the mem
bers are old Level Green school
mass and one is a brother in law.
Our County Judge we have ALWAYS
liked. The others we are not per
sonally acquainted with, but we
know that they are gentlemen OF
thew could not have been elected
to the office they now hold. 1t we
have gone beyond our limit we are
willing to make atOnement If the
gentleman thinks we have intended
to hand any one a lemon, he has q
wrong conception OF the English
language. We have no criticism
to offer and no fault to lind with
Brodhead, should the road only
90 to Brodhead. but the thing we
want and the thing this section i:
looking for, is a road from ou
town which will lead us right into
the good town of Brodhead. Worl
start d on this end of the line
Wednesday and We are looking for
ward to that good day when Llv
| ing ston, Mt. Vernon and Brod
head will be joined by spleudit
pike. With the following lines
dedicated to the Brodhead CORES
poudent we close:
We'll. my friend, control your an
ger,
Don't let it carry you away,
For the lives of great men before u!
Have been veXed in their day
Don't get mad at a fellow writer,
Ard get yourself in such fix,
ust because he happens to NEE
On the subject of politics
So, my friend, go cool your anger
And a lesson from this take,
:, And if ever We do meet you,
We will take good hand shake
Go right on and write your letters
Give the Signal all the news,
But in the future do remember,
The Livingston writer not t
abuse.
