IS THIS SARCASM
(Rockville Journal!
Senator "Tom ' Spellacy of Hart
ford and ‘Danny" Dunr., the Wind
‘ —SB* '?“?!.* juimman both of atom
•at in the democratic national cor.
vention at Baltimore, are men ot
courage. They were rot afraid to
•peak out loud against “W. J. B."
Bless you, no. If the con^oMon hat
only given “Danny” half a show,
there would have been a "hot time
in the old town," and after the De
mosthenes from the banks of the
Willimantic river had finished, all
Baltimore would have been com
pelled to sit up and take notice —
Rockville Leader.
FRENZIED FINANCE
Here Is a financial operation as
•mooth as the dizziest monetary tran
saction recorded in the literary
works of Mr. Thomas W. Lawson.
A Kansas banker wanted a railroad
ticket and had only a two-doilar bill.
It required three dollars to get the
ticket. He took the two-dollar bill to
a pawnbroker, and pawned it for one
dollar and fifty cents. On his way
back; to the station he met a friend,
to whom he sold the pawn ticket for
one dollar and fifty cents. That gave
him three dollars.
Now who’s out a dollar?—Boston
Globe.
In an Interview Mayor Dunn of Wil
limantic, who was a delegate to the
Baltimore convention, said that one
can get but a meagre idea of the
true happenings of a convention from
the accounts in the newspapers. The
experience of the average delegate.
