Well, Sir, did any of you people read
that account in one of these news
papers published down on the East
en Shore of Virginia-about that
shower which rained down fish, in the
neighborhood of Nassawadox?
l don't know what you may think
about this, but it sounds to me like a
fish story. However, that may &C.
count for what saw some time ago
when was driving down in North
ampton. passed field in which !
saw thousands of sea-gulls having a
good time apparently feeding on some
thing. hadn't noticed any shower on
my trip, but there must have been a
local one and these gulls were gulp-
ing down the dainty morsels sent them
from above. That explains it, doesn't
it.

''Chirps' ~
from the
Democrats Pen

DO434V~10 a. - i VAA
Well, Sir, my old Kent county friend
Frank Ruth, the poet-laureate Of the
"Eas'n Shot," must have broken out
with the heat last week when he broke
out with the following lament to
':July", published in the Enterprise"
Of Chestertown:
Talk to nae, please, Of a Yukon biz
card,
Up where the north winds blow
IF you've the art of Houdini wizard,
Show me a semblance Of snow.
Let me think only Of icebergs and
Iceland,
Up where the ptarmigans fly;
Thinking, of course, it must be a nice
land
Compared to our present July.
Now, I would prize few days in
Alaska,
Up where the polar bears roam;
When / would rest, sim would
ask
Musher the way into Nome.
What a relief to think when you're
roasting,
What pleasure you surely would know,
IF in Greenland you now would be
coasting,
With temperature twenty below.
Talk to me, please, of the Klondyke
rivers
Where the Ice-King "knows his
Stuff
Thoughts of the Arctic give me the
shivers,
But Of course not half enough.
Visions Of icicles, igloos and snow
Our thoughts they're bound in in
wade;
But the pleasure they lend we GER
tainly lose ~. s.
When it's hundred and three in the
shade.
That's pretty good, but I'm here to
tell you, Frankly boy, that if you don't
change your ways, there's some more
shot stuff" waitin' for you. Now, Of
course, l don't want to be misunder-
stood in this matter. I'm not referring
to what might be his portion when he
has wrapped the drapery of his couch
around him and has lain down to
pleasant dreams. Nothing like that.
I've known this versifier as long as
I've known myself longer, for
it takes many year for a man to
reach a point where he has obeyed, to
the full, the Biblical injunction, "Know
myself" And I've never known any
thing about the Kent poet which would
make me suspect that he was destined
to spend the infinitesimal part of
second in a place where to say the
least, he might be uncomfortable.
No, nothing like that. Pm just re-
ferring to what's awaiting him this
Fall when the season comes around
for the shower of ballots. I'm afraid
it's going going to be hot water for
him, if he doesn't change his attitude.
just can't understand how he, appar-
emily, thinks nothing very good can
come out of Democratic Israel. don't
believe I would have played with him
when he was boy, if l had known
how he was going to turn out.
wouldn't have let him slide down my
cellar door, nor taken a swig out of
my lemon through a candy stick.
Now, maybe, I've sized up. his
general aspect incorrectly. Maybe
he was only attacked by a case of
Ritchiephobia, during the lifetime of
that wonderful man; or it maybe that
] did not know my old Galena friend as
well as I thought I did-politically.
But, let by-gones be bygones, and
want frankie to write me a real nice
poem about Mr.. Roosevelt and I'll
promise to publish it.

State Capitol News
BY A. /. HARRIS

An action of far-reaching signifi-
canoe in the history of American lib
eralism was taken when the state Far
mer-Labor convention went on rec
ord favoring calling of conference
to take up the matter of forming a
national Farmer-Labor party.
1t is known that millions of liberals
throughout the nation look to the
movement in Minnesota for leadership
in the struggle against economic des-
potism. A national third party in
1896, which could elect a progressive
bloc both in the House and Senate
with political allegiance to neither
of the old parties, would unquestion-
ably have a wholesome effect on the
course of legislation during the next
four years.
Liberals are not in complete agree
ment on the wisdom of placing ma
tional presidential ticket in the field
for 1886, some contending that it may
defeat Roosevelt and place in power
a reactionary. fascist regime. ROOse-
velt's course in the next few months
may be a determining factor. That q
third party, advocating fundamental
changes in our decrepit economic sys-
TEN, and boldly declaring against war
and fascism, will enter the American
political arena, seems certain.

committee on social security and
asked them to make some assurance
to the Social Security Board in Wash
ington that additional funds would be
available i'm January, 1887. This assur-
ance was given and the way was
paved for federal approval. The trip
of the conservative legislators to
Washington would seem to have been
entirely unnecessary.

Most truck and bus operators rea-
lie the necessity for load restric-
lions on certain highways during the
spring breakup but there are always
a few who must be arrested by the
highway patrol for not playing fair
with the public in this matter. The
highway department only restricts
those roads which would be severely
damaged by heavy loads. When this
is done, the highways are kept in
good condition for traffic for the rest
of the year.
