MINGO ITEMS.
The latest news, the papers say,
Is that Democrats have gained
the day,
Wilson and Marshall went up to
head,
Teddy and Billy went down, po
litically dead.
And we are sorry for Mr. Taft,
went down, stern abaft,
We felt kind te Billy, all the
white,
He kept us cheered with a pleas
ant smile,
We hope he may rise tp his nor
mal place
And live through life with no
disgrace.
Teddy was unwise, and very im
polite,
To attempt to make a third term
fight.
We have not forgotten his ar
dent zeal
In helping to make the Panama
deal,
They bought the ditch with a
small account,
And charged Uncle Sam a large
amount.
And when the New York World
exposed the crime,
Roosevelt was mad a very long
time,
He sued the paper, for libel and
shame,
And tried to disgrace its great
name.
But the paper stood up in strong
defense.
And showed it had money and
sense.
It contested its case until dis
missed,
And the paper was cleared, and
Roosevelt hissed.
