Noise is the chiéf ingredient of @ convention, like foam of an ice cream sqga. Everything connected with the G. 0. P. nightmare is noisy, including the dark horses. From the steam roller to the silk shirts the Washington correspondents wear, there is nothing but noise, From, the Lake'to the Loop there is nothing but noise, And from morning to night there is nothing but noise, Even the ticket speculators are raising their voices as high as their prices.
