our NATIONAL FUNNY HOUSE.

OUR NATIONAL FUNNY HOUSE
The biggest fools in America are in
Congress. Abundant proof of the fact
is found in every issue of the Congress
sIonal Record.
A large majority of them are half
wits who failed in everything else and
tried politics as last resort.
In the whole bunch. there isn't one
that had greatness thrust upon him,
who was elected without his ardent
consent. Every one OF them schemed
and scrapped aud fought for the office.
1t is an aggregation of cheap-skates
ant ha,. wits, With few distinguished
exceptiars, aaJ the latter rule the
roost. Of course.
What's Bill Simpkins doing now?"
a neighbor will ask down South, visit
ing in town for the first time in three
or four years.
"Oh. Bill? We got tired of seeing
him hanging around, and he's serving
sentence in the House of Represen-
NdNlNtos IOOi Oiu Dill 4lt . a. bODt
sort of guy. but he hasn't got any
sense. so we thought we'd help him
out little"
That's the way they talk about The
Congressman, and justly so.
There's a man named Roberts. who
halls from Nevada, who is serving a
sentence in the House. If anyone has
a lingering doubt OF his eminent ca
pacity, just read his recent alleged
speech. excerpts from which were
printed locally. II takes the cake
After reading IT in the Congressional
Record. the editor of this paper wad-
ded it up and threw it at q dog That's
all IL was fit for, or to light a fire.
Why doesn't Nevada send repre-
sentative to the House? The State Is
entitled to one. Can't man be found
who will make the sacrifice?
There are several men in the House,
not more than five or six, and they
need help. They are also lonesome.
They are like observers living in a
lunatic asylum, keeping cases on the
nuts for the benefit of science
If the Congressional Record were
generally circulated and read by the
people, they would get busy and
change our form of government. They
would go back to the patriarchal sys
tenn OF Samuel and Moses, hiring three
or four wise old daddies to make the
laws for us.
The House Is an aggregation of con
tempuble little pork pullers. That
their sole thought, by day and b!
night, how to get some pork for them
selves and their constituents. Mlser
