TIPS AND TAPS
, . Our newspapers call Legislators
"Solons." They could be called "Sojongs"
if they required a more descriptive
name, and, once?only once,
mind you?when I was just a little
tiny boy,?"I went to the state house
to see those "Solons" .function: after
a day and night with some of (hem,
mind you?I called them "Sa-loons."
<*' > . V$.
.Whisky is mighty hard to get these
days, especially in our state Capitals.
I know a law-maker who had to call
8 different persons one night beforo
he got his quart. (The other 2 had
just sold out). Most of tho booze
drunk now-a-days by lobbyists is imported,,
from nearby swamps and
far-off gullies. I do not know a
single legislator that takes A drink:
some of the married might, though.
.. A doorkeeper in the legislative
halls told me once., when I was
younger, .that vory few of the legislators,
that is?the 'Colons," ever
drunk while on duty, .unless of
course, they had an. important bill
to introduce that day..and nearly all
of them alwayA had some important
bills to got passed. .Not all of them,
mind you?just those other few fellers.
Most legislators are afraid
that they won't be re-elected if they
don't introduce something every now
and then.,?.and have it put jn their
"home" paper.
..Practically all legislators attend all
of the meetings occasionally, and
some of them attend all of them....
unless they are off somewhere, and
can't get there as they are busy:
only about two-thirds of them shout
"False economy" when someone proposes
to cut expenses. "False economy"
means cutting out some por-n
tion of those guy's direct or indirect'
income.... and then they shout tl\^t
statement from the house-tops and
doorsteps.
. .Personally and confidentially, I
don't think it is "False economy" to
discontinue any commission or'-'policy
or practice or habit or work that
you are not able to pay for, but just
let someJ>ird get up and suggest that
the' appropriation for rehabilitating
crippled bull-frogs "be reduced from
$1,888,909.66 to $1,888,999.60, 2 dozen
of those "False economy" squirts will
rise from their $eata..with tears in
their eyes, .and nothing in their pock'
ets.and shout?".Stay thy hand,
friends?you are taking a backward
step."
. .It is some consolation to know that
legislators have done about the same
things in each of our respective 48
states: they were trying to keep ahead
of the Joneses, .and now, apparently,
every state, county, township,
school district, father, mother,
son and baby..is busted from center
to circumference and the end ain't
yet. So, boys, let's help 'em out by
hogging them to do the host they can
..thus, forgetting themselves for a
season.

i notis that you 'aro running an
open forum in yoro valuuble paper
for chronnic kickers and other publicity
seekers to air their views an- i
soforth in, so i am riting a peace
to bo put in same at yore earliest
convenience if j^ou can't do so anny
sooner: and oblige.
as the legislature is reggerlating
everthing else, i would like for them
to put a limit on how long a preecher
can preach at one sermont, and allso
make it a miss demeanor for him
to pray over 6 mlnets. the members
of retyober would appreciate help, as
our pasture needs reggerlattng.

another good bill for the farmers
would be a measure to prohibit agents
of anny kind, including book,
specks, medison, sewing machine and
insurance from tramping over their
crops when they can't find him at
home, as his only chance to dodge
them is to do so on his own premisses,
and they can go back home if
he is not in tho house, this will allso'
'include rabbet hunters and office
seekers, and other parrysites of a
like nature and breed.
we hope they will pass a bill to
force the highway department and
the tax commissions to turn the state
govvernment back over to the people,
and 8top them from borrowing all
tho money in the world to squander,
enjoin th?m and make them squander
some of their own ass sets first, and
then there will be time enuff to rob
the treasury, allso stop bond dishers.
with the aid of congress, an act
should be passed to require the tobacco
manufacturers to use a pistol
when they take the raw tobacco
away from the farmers..and not use
a trust .to do so, as at pressent, and
get an injunction against them raising
their prices on cigarettes and
plugs unless they pay more for the
raw..don't permit them to take advantage
of the bad habbits of our
men and wimmen and children....
who must smoke and chew or die.

what we need is more brains And
less mouth, more grit and less gas,
