For the South is Going: Dry.
The following is a poem that was1
read in the legislature last week by ;
Senator Bassett:
Lav the jest about the julep in thA
camphor balls at last.
For the miracle has happened and the
olden days are past;
That makes Milwaukee thirsty doesn't
roam in Tennessee
And the lid in old Missouri is as tightlocked
as can be.
Oh, the comic paper Colonel and his
comrades well may sigh,
For the mint is waving gaily but the
South is going dry.
By the stillside on the hillside in
Kentucky all is still.
For the only damp refreshment must
be dipped up from the rid;
No'th Ca'lina's stately rule give^his
soda glass a shove
And discusses local option with the
South Ca'lina Gov.,
It is useless at the fountain to be j
winkful of the eye.
For the cocktail glass is dusty, and
the South is going dry.
* ?
It is water, water, everywhere, and j
not a drop to drink;
We no longer hear the music qf the'
mellow crystal clink,
When the Colonel and the Maior and
the Gen'l and the Jedge
Meet to have a little nip to give their 1
appetites an edge. -j
For the eggndjj now is nogless""and | <
the rye has gone awry,
A *i.V 1 1 I I J_ . _ I .
x&uu vuc (juiicii wwi nums curnauous, ?
and the South is going dry.
All the nightcaps now have tassels j{
and are worn upon the head? '
Not the nightcap* that were taken 1 1
when nobody went to bed;
And the breeze above the bide grass f
is as solemn as is death; <
For it bears no pungent cloves twang* <
on its odorific breath.
And each man can walk a chalk line j
when the stars are in the sky 1
For the fizz glass now is fizzless, and 2
the South is going dry. .
I
Lay the jest about the julep 'neath
the chestnut tree at last.
For there's but one kind of moonshine ?
and the olden days are past,
Now the water wagon rumblea through the
Southland on its trip.
And it helps no one to drop off to pick *
up the driver's whip; *
For the mint beds make a pasture s
and the corkscrew hangeth high; I a
All is still along the stillside, and the j t
South is going dry.
