(DON MARIUs)

The writer doesn't know of
 but one Loco weed but he knows
 of several ways by which one
 may get the virus.
 The democratic party got so
 thoroly inOculated with this crazy stuff just a year ago, there wasn't enough left of the "unterrifed" to form a corporal's guard.
 Where they got it and who ad- ministered it the deponent sayeth not. But that they got it and got it bad to their everlasting shame and to the humiliation of the ''stand-patters" in the party can not be gainsaid.
 Some of these same pseudo dem ocrats had held office as the gift of the voters of the party they so traitorously deserted while under the influence of this drug.
 November the eleventh. Armis- tice Day, is appropriately set aside as a national holiday, a day of rejoicing
 These weak kneed democrats who so completely forgot their old party ties should set aside November second to clothe them selves in 'sackcloth and ashes" and as a constant reminder of what consumate asses they made of themselves.
 Is there no cure for this peliti- cal loco? Sure. The present ad- ministration. unintentionally how ever, is administering an antidote in big doses every day the pres ent congress is ir session that will eventually knock out this crazy pug juice that effects the crazy heads of the crazy democrats.
 Is there no danger of a relapse? 0h yes. The next political Moses hat comes bowling out of the wilderness these same half baked democrats will rush after him like l flock of sheep after an old bell wether.
 But doctor we want an absolute ,ure. All right, here it is. Bar ,hese dissenters from party eau uses and party nominations for , he next ten years. Vow! That's better. Sure. So is your gall to .ome back this coming fall howl ng for recognition by the party ,ou betrayed like a Judas.
 There has been some talk since he great defeat of 1920of chang , ng the Democratic Party emblem rom the jackass to the monkey. The donkey was rediculous enough ,ut the monkey will be more so. This probably explains the sug- rested change.
 The writer has nothing else to , 10 but remind these democratic . ,0 deserters every year for the lext ten of the "shotin the arm" hey got from the Loco Doctor in Y, .92O.
