Judge Waxem’s Political Proverbs

Its a blessing to the community that politikie campanes comes by fits and starts. When a statesman gets crazy to be president he aint fit fer his callin till he gits cured. Honest men aint nacherly politishans. We air a grate natiun but wc don’t know it all yit. Wimmin never was bilt totgide the ship of state. 4 * Ei we didn't pay no taxes, we wuldn't sod like we owned a sheer in the country. Take keer of your votes and politicks will take iceor of themselves. Newspapers is the nashunal boomers. Money aint wuth no more ner less than wliat it will buy. Patriotism oughtent to declare no cash dividends. — —■ —
