BUT GEN- ERAL WOOD IS BUSY TRY- ING TO HUSH ET UP. * * Anti-farmer papers are trying to discredit Doctor Henrik Shipstead, farmer-labor candidate for governor of Minnesota, by calling him a poet. But the people who have heard his speeches say there is more truth than poetry: to them. 3 * * * Pretty soon we’ll be getting a little light on the d;a"rk horses. * * Ex-Senator Clark of Montana, ex- Senator Lorimer of Illinois and Sen- ator Newberry of Michigan are in a position now to start an exclusive lit- tle club of their own. And they might vote an honorary membership to Gen- “eral Wood. * * In the old days a “woman was only a woman.” Now she’s a vote. £ % o%x Said a miner who came from Alaska, “I. don’t know_if she’ll wed, but I'll ask ’er.

CHANGED IDEAS d§ AID Simon Fluff, the senator, who helped the steel trust out when things were looking sad and drear for grafting here- | about: “Now Hiram Green’s the sort of. chap this land of ours needs; he never gets a wild idee nor agitation heeds. He’s sober and in- dustrious and has a little dough; he runs his farm and is content to watch the clover grow.” Said Mike McCann who helps the gang elect a good safe slate: “Sure, he’s the sort we gotta have; he votes the ticket straight; it’s men like him that give a chance to send 'some men like Fluff to congress; sure, he’s safe and sane although we treat him rough.” . Then Hiram Green stepped down the street and Mike and Simon smiled, for oft before these gentle- men poor Hiram had beguiled. But Mike espied a button (his eye was sharp and quick), the button worn on Hiram’s coat was labeled plain “We'll Stick.” . The jaws of Mike McCann went down, Mike’s hair and eyebrows rose, he’d never seen a sign like that before on Hiram’s clothes. And Simon Fluff just fluttered and he shrieked a feeble squeak and Mike and Simon yelled at Hi: “You doggone Bolshevik!” —C. W. V. : e
