R.F.D. No. i, Box 43, writes: ? " I have
used your Liniment on a horse for Sweeney

removed a spavin on a mule. This
spavin was as large as a guinea egg. In
my estimation the best remedy for lame.

-to graft. De politicians of de kentry
lon't steal half as much as de bankers
lest remember dat when you read all
le hard things in de papers.

imagine dar was a single rascal among
le lot. Dey was simply average men.
[*ut a cash register into de office along
wid 'em arid count up de receipts
?bery night, and derewill be no shortage.
Dat's anodder of our leetl? ways.
SVe Meet a man to handle our cash, gib
him all de chances in de world to steal
?in factj tempt him into it?and den
we wonder why he goes wrong. De
whole caboodle of us haven't got de

^He's mo' _to blame dan anybody

anodder of our leetle ways. We refuse
to buy pore butter at de grocery
to please de grocer or de hull world
behind him. but we will wote fur men
whose reputations smell wuss'n de
butter. We do it and den kick bekase
we haven't better government.
"And I want to say a word 'bout de
government. It's good 'nuff. It's good
'nuff no matter what party am in
nower. If we am asses 'nuff to call
a man a liar, a rascal and a thief and
den 'lect him to handle our money and
make our laws we deserve what we
get. I hear somebody kickin' ebery
day. but we hain't de least right to
find one word of fault.
"In my time a governor or president
was looked upon as a great man. One
was at de head of a state and de odder
at de head of a nasbun. We spoke of
'em wid respect and awe. How am it
nowadaysV De newspapers have cartooned
and belittled 'em until dey
seem to stand no higher dan a country
constable. We demand on de one
hand dat dey shall be our greatest
men and on de odder dey am no sooner
'lected dan we go to work to pull
'em down among de smallest. Dat's
one of our leetle ways dat make us a
great people in de eyes of Europe.
