Secretary of State Crockett of
Tennessee is the .s^reat "randson
of the famous Davy Crockett.
Secretary Crockett has in his
possession the rifle which was
presented to Davy Crockett by
his friends. The Memphis Com

relic in this way: “This gun was
carried by the grandson of the
first owner, the late General

Tonight it enters an hunible
home to strike the roses from a
woman’s cheek, and tomorrow it
challenges this republic in the
halls of congress.
Today it strikes a crust from
the lips of a starving child, and
tomorrow levies tribute from
the government itself.
There is no cottage humble
enough to escape it, no palace
strong enough to shut it out.
It defies the law when it can
not coerce suffrage.
It is flexible to cajole, but mer

If Ilusscll Sage should be carried

And leave me the key to his till—
If all the Goulds the Vanderbilts

And leave me taeir money. I’d drop
