had one (none) there to vote
and everyone here knows
what he has accomplished,
and everyone is wondering
whether Hartke will come
back Ito town for another
campaign.
A travelling man in town
said that Swist had pig feet
He would be a sight to travel
with Hagenbeck & Wallis
shows.
Basil Fleck brought z pigs
to town and Andy Schuetter
bought them. Basil says he
was satisfied so was Andy
but look out where pork will
go when Andy gets them on
the market.
You often see three horses
to one wagon, but Lawrence
HOchgeSang had two horses
hitched to three wagons.
The empty bottles from
Haysville are in the shed all
o K. They were full when
taken out and empty when
brought back. 50 you can
see the full stopped at the
slaughter house but there
were no full one when they
came home.
When the man about town
goes to Haysviile he will
make it his business to tell
every one of his jokes, if you
do not like it move there
and make your home perma-
manent.
The man that no one knows
that made a reply to the
man about better make him.

Here's to Indiana (Hartke)

she does away with beer and
whisky she Will certainly go
to Halifax.
There were two student
that had not met for fifteen
years, when they met they
spoke of college days. One
says, II like to drink out of
u glass" the other stated 81
rather drink out of a jug,
the people never see how
