M "O, no, my son, about as big ns'Hey'wood or Tom I M Kearns; M 'Twas not his stature made him great, it was his M twists and turns." M "What caused thiB Herry PTTath to come to toil H in this wild west, H Had ho a rapt reformer's dream hugged in his H stalwart breast?" H "O, no, my "son, the east was squeezed till it was H spent and dry, H Aud so this Herry Peath came west, his ancient H graft to try." H Ho was a friend of Hanna, son. of Hanna and one ' H Payne, H And they considered what was best to further H their own gain H Persuaded Herry to go west, i virgin land to H pluck, H A groat recruiting pasture for a lame and weary H duck. H They dumped this Herry Peath and said "Utah's I a wicked state, I And has but three electoral votes, and if its Is I our fate, To lose those votes through Herry Peath, still it I is better so, H Than that his work hero in'th'o east, some great- I er states o'erthrow."
