disagreeable on account OF the per-
Sons you are compelled to associate
with and another gentleman and
lake lIamon was talkin' this morn
in when a white man and biz butt
ed in. Things like that are takin'
place all the time.
Diz was boomin' Lowden to beat
fhe band. He hadn't read the
papers yet bout how his man had
corrupted them two Saint Louis
fellers, or they would have been
corrupted II they'd been from any
other place. Diz sed he was fer
Iowden for two reasons. Tho first
was that he wuz the man that
could get Woods goat. And gettin
Woods goat is the principle thing
Diz and Jake is livin' for right now.
And the other wuz because he was
too honest to spend money and raise
the price of delegates.
thot the white man wuz goin'
20 die. I asst biz how Il happen
ell that he and Jake wuzn't boostin'
for Johnson. him bein' the only
candidate that has headquarters that
a person can reach through a tun-
nel. But he didn't answer that one,
cause Tobe Hert was standing across
the lobby give 'eU some sort of a
secret sign bout that time and he
and Jake moved on leavin' me an
the other gentleman to finish the
conversation.

in' Lowden over. I.owden amt
over vet by durn site and there's
plenty Of people stoppin' at the
hotel who swear by the yellow beard
Of their ancestors that he amt goin'
over. Rut Tobe's doin' his best He
has got together all the delegates
that really favor Lowden, which amt
many: and has consorted them with
all the persons who want to beat
Wood because they couldn't handle
him which amt so many either.
That's how come Jake and Diz are
such good friends Of Tobe. BY
making the unholy alliance I Just
mentioned Tobe has got himself to-
gether a little party that represents
maybe az much as thirty per cent
OF the convention.
The balance of the delegates is
more or less divided between Wood
and Johnson with the general hold
ing the big share but without enough
of 'em to get hi'sef put over on the
first reat. The feclin' between the
Wood and johnson men Is about the
same as exists between person
whose house is bein' robbed and the
bird that is doin' the robbin. II
yau get what am drivin' at. That
Is to say, they recognize each other
but don't care none about associa-
in.
Tohe and his allies figures that
Wood and Johnson'll jes' divide the
convention and can't never get to-
gether, which'll leave his man
good chance to come from behind
and win cause he's everbodys
frien' and will look good to the boys
after they have all got good and
sore NJ each other.
And Tobe's dope Is purity good
bout the Wood and Johnson men
not gettin' together. leastways not
until somebody forces 'em. But
