THE ULTIMATE STRAW.

Patiently people have noted the pinnacle
Prices attain in their upward ascent,
Making, perhaps, some remarks that were cynical
Touching inilations Of profits on rent.

Rament and sundry luxuriant lines,
But that was ere 10 the list OF detestabes
Levantines added the iiiteen-cent shines,
That, we should say is the straw Of finality,
Fraoturing vertebrae oamels contain,
Causing consumers in every locality
Psychic eruptlons and deep-seated pain,
While they resort TO a labor that's menal,
Mussy and greasy and difficult too.
Choosing a task that is far from congenial
Rather than saye an hthenian crew.
Anyhow, many will hold !, is serious
When the Hellenic contingent can tell
Native pedestrians, proud and imperious,
What they must pay TO keep walking shoes swell,
And proof that they live independently
Some will invest in polishing kit.
Keeping their shoes in glo" as reSplendenty

that followed, but the republican par
ty, far from being destroyed, emerged
triumphant from the November cleo

! the secession Of the free silver minor
ity strengthened s~rstt1er than weakened
the republican party. 1t caused IA"
issue between the advocates and uppon-
ents of free silver to be the more
sharply defined. 1t brought to the
republican party a large body of vot-
crs that otherwise would have been

would be a good radiance. in the vier: of
many republicans. Senator Borah is
doing the republican party more injury
