Not many years ago there wa a celebrated murder trial in New York. At
nan wa. shot, and four gunner who actually committed the killing paid the
penalty with their lives. But it was brought out a. the trial that a man
prominent in police circles had directed their movements. He as also
brought to trial. and the jury decided that he was equally if not more guilty
than his plant tools. He followed his miserable accompnces to the electric
chair.
If Nj. Burleson is to lose his political head s the result of his mismanage-
ment of public office, how much more deserving is the man who appointed
him of LAYING the same penalty assessed against him. As in the sordid crimi
nal case in New York, the only way to relieve our governmental organization
Of such men a Burleson is to remove the individual who bestowed power
upon him. The legislative branch of the government has been cleansed. At
the next election let us finish the job and tear out root and branch the incubus
that now burdens the executive branch, and permit or people to prosper
and be happy once more, IS they were in the days before the disease fastened
itself upon our body polite.

President Wilson called the senatorial opponents OF the league of nations
"men of small vision" Carrying the matter a step frrther, he probably
thinks the people who elected such mn are also men of small vision" 1t

the people.

OCAA OCCURRENCES
THE GOVERNMENT LADY

Anna Maria Sophia Jones
Was lust a bundle of skin and bones
The sort of woman you often meet
With knobbledy fingers and large fiat
feet
Her hair was dragged behind in a
bunch
And she had dinner when you have
lunch.
The Government Lady came to the
door
With printed leafiets-dozens and
more
She spoke to Maria firmly and long
And all that Maria did was wrong.
She oughtn't to peel potatoes and boil
them,
To peel potatoes was only to spoil
them;
She oughtn't to waste the pods of the
pea;
She oughtn't to stew and stew her
tea;
She oughtn't to feed her baby on
bread
Before it had ever tooth in its
head
(Anna Sophia, mother of five,i
Three were dead, but two were alive,
Always had given her baby bread
Before it had ever tooth in its head
She oughtn't to spend her money on
drink;
She oughtn't to stuff up the drain of
the sink;
She oughtn't to shut out air and light;
She oughtn't to close her window at
night
(Anna Maria Sophia Jones

Air in bedroom made her sick.
She oughtn't to buy her self ready

She oughtn't-she oughtn't-O, good

Before the Government Lady had
ended
Aaunt Sophia was highly offended.
Anna Maria Sophia Jones
Was just bundle of skin and bones
The sort of woman you often meet
With knobbledy fingers and large fiat
feet
Her hair was dragged behind in a
bunch,
And she had dinner when you have

But Anna Maria had spirit within
The spirit that makes saint of a
sinner
When she saw what was right she
went and did it,
And then, if need be, afterward hid it

Asked in dull and colorless tones

| Opened the door of the passage wide
Took chopper and hit her hard,
And buried the body in the yard.
