Tucker's Huckleberry Knob, NL; C, April 20, 1911. Editor-Yellow Jacket. My Dear Sir: I didn't have time to write and tell 'you I'd not have a letter in last issue, but I suppose you found it out anyhow. T'vft been unusually busy for the rjast month. I've broke 10. acres of rnrn land, built three hundred rods of barbed wire fence, cut forty yards of ditch; prepared and delivered speeches at our debating society whipped a lightning-rod agent two and that had been bothering me for nearly two weeks, besides I have; keptn my iweather eye on. the . antics of the donkey crowd now assembled) at Washington under the guise of try ing to save the country by cu ;ting down the tariff. When not engaged in the above named duties I was as sisting Patsey'in gardening, making soap, cleaning about the house, set ting hens and keeping Dal John; ion's peafowls r;n out of our spring alad patch. This spring threatens to be or e of unusual interest. There is a fight or a frolick, a flood or a pan: c, a tumult or a tornado at every turn of the road as we journey down the pike. There is the Democratic nigger convention at Indianapolis! plarming for the Democratic Presidential ziam paiga next year and many a fried chicken will it take to appease i the palate of those Demmy niggers. You - know they got a start along this line when Bryan stuffed the brudderia on Ms lawn three years ago. ! Think of it, ye white Democrats, how thdy fit together Democracy, fried pillets and Af riocacy. I suppose Bryan takes a leading hand in this as h 3 did in the Martin affair, at Washington. But one of the grandest farces J and completest fizzles now being pulled me oyt-eiai session or congress. tiTI g that approaches it is naniic ettorts of the Democratic pre&s to conceal the real fizzle from e public and make it appear that w ?3F'is actuaJly ong doi e to oenetit the farmer.

They went mad and tried to ram Bryan and fifty cent dollars down our throats. Now they say damn Bryan. Then look at their sell-outs and fall-outs and their stfial-iriH nil the country: Sold out for pelf in Illinois legislature. Sold out to the1 licker men in Indiana. Got drunk? and fought like cats and dogs in the' Missouri legislature the past winter and that on J Sunday. Assassinated their leader in Tpptipsso ri Cleveland" while living and ignored! his memory- when dead. Licked the I big toe of Alton , Begum Parker. Done many other dirty disreputable ; acts and 'then had the audacity to' come before the voters and propose1 if elected that the party, would be nice and clean up all the dirty work 1 of the Republican party. Don't it beat chain lightning? And the fool voters believed them and. elected them and now they are gettiug pay for : their credulity by listening at tkeir gang of "reformers" calling each other traitors and -mak ing a regular dog fall of it so far as 1 enacting any beneficial legislation is concerned. I sometimes wonder how long it will take the people to find out -that there is no more stability in the Democratic party than there is gold dust in a cabbage or attar of roses in the stench of a billy goat. I take a little local Dem paper called the Snagtown Chronicle and in keeping with all the rest of the Dem sheets the little j pale printed rag is having an" ecstatic fit of re joicing over a report to the effect j that Congress has cut down expenses way up into the million by discharg ing certain useless officials-about the Capital. And that is another lie out ( of JJie whole cloth. The real facts are that there .was a caucus resolu 1! - J 1 2 J.1 J. J hangers - on be cut off and that was t all right as far as it . went, but it. still remains for the Democrats to ; pass a law providing for the dis-( charge of these "supernumeraries j before the saving really can be made and that hasn't -been done and the Dems are too cowardly to do it But j that is about as near the trutn as a Democratic paper can get.

That's the reason the Democratic "party manages to live and keep, before the people. So "many folks who , would ratjier be humbugged ? than helped. Rather be a football ; than a free American citizen. But some sore-eyed son-of-a-gun will say I have overdrawn the picture so I will stop- right here and ask him to read the recent papers uem ana let me out, " X 1 ' - y xours truiy. ELI TUCKER, An. . unsuccessful attempt to ; lop $30,000 from the annual patronage of the House was made 'by Repre sentative Clark .(Democrat; of Flori da). After a sliort but vigorous dis cussion Champ Clark ; ruled Clark's resolution out of order,. r dark presented a resolution abol- ishing about .twenty-fivejobs as v com mittee clerks and stenograpnersv The Democratlc leaders ".wSire some2 what , excited about. Clark's scUem'e; and they : heaved a sigh of relief. iwneB the speaKer ruiea tne resoiu- tiott cat of order, : - "Jeffe 99 rsonmo Guess you saw that my pet measure, ('Tis the one thing that I treasure) passed the House the other day? 'Twa's to lfit the "pee-pul" vote'direct And their Senators elects Please excuse me while I bray. He haw-he-haw-he haw! 1 But of course, thi3 is under your hat, the Oregon . plan being adopted by so many states brought that plan about and the Republicans seemed to be in favor of it, about as much as my party. Bill Bryan was in Washington and claimed that asone of his measures, and seemed to 'think that he was vin dicated. But of course we all know better. Old Man VanWyck, way back in 1880, before Bryan had taken vocal lessons with his jaw, advocated that measure and went out to Nebraska and had a direct primary. He spent several thousand dollars of real mon ey having people vote for him; they did so, and then some of the legislo tors went back on him and elected Paddock, the Pure Food man. Bryan bobbed up in Nebraska about that time and stole all of VanWyck's thunder. If you will take the trouble to look up VanWyck's record you will find also that he was telling the peo ple that the government must either own or' control the railroads. - And what is so derned funny about it all is that VanWyck was a New York Republican. Say, boys, but we are having lots of fun down "here in Washington. You see the-i trouble is Chump Clark is so afraid he will rub the hair the wrong way and not rub it the right way he doesn't know just what .to do. He calls the fool Democrats up to the chair and explains why he rules them out of order. .Old Man Cannon presumed that peor)le had sense enoueh to know about it. without ex plaining but Uncle Joe never pre sided over a crowd of Democrats in the majority. Chump has the presi dential bee buzzing pretty loud -and he is sore because he couldn't go iut and get money- and advertise himself this season. He looks with envy on Harmon and Wilson and Bryan and all these Hope-to-bes wha have nom ine to do but spout and tell what constitute Jeffersonian Dimmycrats. - The Democrats are now issuing a paper from Washington supposed to contain accurate Information as to what Democrats are doing at the canital. Chairman Chump edits it, or rather sees to it that nothing goes in without his approval, ana the re publican who hopes to get accurate information should apply to -Thomas Jeffersonian through some Democratic SDiritualistic meaium iuii oi rum and devoid of truth. -j. I I expect to be here a great part of the summer. - We must get the farmer fixed, and about that time the editors will demand free pulp, and then the manufacturers will demand some thing, and then the fight will be on. I hear some of our boys saying that Chump Clark is nice and easy, but he 'can't; swing everything; his way. The fun" will commence in a little while; and unless we get an early adjournment we may be here until the regular session comes along. I tell you there is something doing and a great deal that doesn't appear o"n the surface. Chump Clark every day sees the possibility of his can didacy looming up. He wants to get through enough important legislation in order to go before the country and fooMt into voting for him. But there are others 'who have other choice, and T just tell v you," under your hat of course, that there will be more fun "down here than a bushel of monkeys before we ffet much further along. Those of us " who watched Billy Bryan when he walked down the Halls of the American Congress and swung his shining jaw full and fair into the faces of his countrymen couldn't help but see a far-away look In the gal lant Colonel's eyes. He tried to make it appear that he was the great I am-he used to be but when he got to fooling with Senator. Martin and the boys repudiated Bryan and stuck to Martin the Nebraskan looked crushed. -His is a sad fate. To think that he came within a stone's -throw three times of being President and got scooped out every time well, he is a. has-been of an obsolete type, and somebody should tell him. But who dare tell him? Any one of us big enough to tell him .he is dead wants his vote for President this next whirl so we all pat him on his bald, bald "head, and tell Jiim pretty things but that doesn't buy the baby a dress. Of course ! I. am harnessed - and bridled for anything that '. comes along, but if you were going to ask my; opinion as to whom I expect to ride into the next presidential race I would say Wilson. Why? Because he has his nerve; he-is the newest one of the sensational freak lay-out, and the. chances are that his New Jersey victory suggests that we should try it with a man who hasn't had the living lights kicked out of him three or four times. When we get that farmer's free list through and go out telling the down trodden, honest farmer - who will come out to hear us talk in his auto mobile, what we have done for him in getting his shoes cut down ten per cent, and he knows that he pays the same price as 'before, we expect to see a large look of disugst oh ,his precious face. 'But we've got to have campaign thunder and if we can't fool the laboring man we can't fool anybody. ' THE DUMMY SPEECHES. And so the esteemed . Congressional Record, if some of the Democrats have their way, will hereafter have no speeches in it except those really delivered on the floor of the House. Really, Maria; that is the stuph! Why, in the name of the Sacred Bull and all animate and inanimate things of earth, should a' two by four Congressman have a right to go out and employ a penny-a-liner, a pro fessional scribbler to write him a speech; to soar into the clouds; to quote figures by the yard; to say things the Congressman could not comprehend, and print them in the Congressional Record and send them out, postage free, to a deluded- and deceived constituency? No reason in the wide, wide world, except it is an old rule 'that has . long time obtained. Now the propo sition is to cut it out And- while Democrats have sprung this scheme on the country we are with 'em on it. We have grown weary, in other days, when reading the Record to see long, windy speeches supposed to have beehmade by some little ban tam rooster who couldn't recite the Declaration of Independence. We have grown weary of such false pre tence, and years ago we denounced the custom as hypocritical and de ceptive. We are glad the Nation is informed that such proceedings have been allowed. In this way, by cut- ting out all but what are really de- .. . i usiu ,-w. UYCICUi Uiau nuu uu v rf-k w r - -rwa ti n r rvrw t-i v f credit In the other way, the profes ! . wj sometning, receive- sional speech writer could unload his junk on a green-horn Congress man, tell him to buy it and print it in the Record, and send it to his con stituents and thus borrow plumage that he couldn't strut in at home but make it appear that the air at Washington was so surcharged" with intellectuality that a common clod hopper could go there with a certifi cate of election and suddenly Dioom as a statesman familiar with all the history1 of all the world. We are glad it is to be eliminated. Not that the Congressional Record will be as bulky ; not that it will scintillate as it erstwhile did; not that it will be such a rare literary gem but it will be honest and something like that is inspiring. vWhen the cheapest kind bi an up start a .hot-air" artist with neither brains nor eloquence can make it ap pear that he delivered a six hour speech on the Fourth Dimension or some other wonderful subject; send it free of postage to an admiring con stituency, we know it is wrong, and every honest man, in the United States knows it is wrong. Hurrah for Chump Clark's pie brigade that opened the oyster. Hur rah for the gentleman from Kalama zoo who didn't want to sail under false colors, and hurrah finally for the new Record. The Democrats oppose a tariff and they also oppose a .revenue. That is why so many Democrats make moon shine whiskey. - They are agin the government receiving anything - that look? like real money, y - v The Great Secret Revealed! There has always been a great mystery about the so-called "Jeffer--sonian Democrats" and it has been left to the Hon. "Woodrow Wilson, near-candidate and palpitating ora tor of New Jersey to fully reveal tha mystery. Wilson journeyed to In dianapolis to take part in a Jefferson day banquet and while he held en raptured all the unwashed and unde fined Democracy from Kernel Kerns bewhiskeredstate, he handed out this little bon-mot: v- "We are fond of speaking of our selves as the party' of Jefferson and , Jackson, not because we are a party of old men, reminiscent of things gone by and in love with -what has been, but because ' we are a party touched with the ideals which made these men great,. whose names we re call, with" such reverence and enthu siasm because the breath of- our party's life is its utter faith in the Principles of Democracy." It is its devotion to the rights of the peoDle kf whatever class or degree as against all claims of privilege, as against all selfish vested interests which seek control instead of freely serving the life and development of the nation." And thus it is. - The party of Jefferson. The sama party to which Tom Watson, William Randolph Hearst, Chump Clark, Gov ernor Folk, Bill Bryan and God knows who belong and each one of them demanding the impossible. The Democratic party, as Tom Corwin used to call it, the organized ignorance of America; the party that opposed free schools; the party that favored secession; the party that builded the frauds and grafts when the nation was young the party that always wanted free trade because it was dominant in a section which lived off - the sweat of other men's faces, .and refused to - do manual la bor. The party that fired on the Ameri can flag the party that allowed a Democratic president, to sit sullenly down and declare that he was help less to put down armed rebellion. The party that " worships a man who rewrote the Bible who cut" out God's word'and set up for himself a Bible that met the requirements of his belief the same as Brighman Young lust-laden made a creed to meet his desires. And Tom Watson who now assails the Catholic church and slanders fair womanhood is a Jeffersonian Demo crat. And William Randolph Hearst who fired the. passion of anarchy and had a President assassinated, and who forced a war with Spain, and who prints yellow journals that debase and corrupt Willie is a Jeffersonian Democrat because he said he was. And Willie Bryan who used as a title to his -political speeches an opener on the King of Peace, who waxed fat and rich on gate receipts and wlio destroyed his party and split it wide open and was thrice re pudiated by the intelligence of the country he is a Jeffersonian Demo crat x ' And Chump Clark who was' a rip snorting free silver apostle, rantank- erous ana uncompromismg-u 5is n. Jpfrnrsnninn Democrat and erous and uncompromising Chump now , - - . , , . ' . , . m " ... - - - ambitious to .be president, and he tells us that the Jeffersonian Demo. crat of which he is one, believes in the rights or the "pee-pul." Beloved, did you think it would come to this? Did you imagine that the dime museums were being de prived of their just subjects, because the Democratic party wants to play 'em up as Jeffersonian Democrats? But it is true. Sad. sad, the day when every destructive brain can plume itself and go out on the stump and harangue, the people; declare itself a followerer of" Jefferson, and then break its neck running for the presidency on a platform as much at variance. with what Jefferson preach ed and believed as the odor of a pole cat is at variance with attar of roses. But Wilson tells us why and the group - of immortal freaks pleading the same racket yelling "Me Too." should make the bones of the Monte cello statesman turn in the grave, crack the decaying coffin lid and take to the woods in the Valley of irginia. People who 'are money mad should take a lesson from D. K. Pearson, of Chicago the rich old doctor who has given to colleges and charity seven million dollars and who, claims he has done nothing else for twenty-two years but give away his money. He celebrated his ninety-first birthday the other day and signed his last check, one for s a hundred thousand. He thinks he has done his duty but why get money mad, and devote 'all your time to either making or giving away? Why not take a little time off and enjoy some of the things God placed here for you to enjoyt
