Show I AGAIN ON THE BURNING DECK. Senator Sherman of Illinois has walked on to the burning deck once more, to hold attention. On his last appearance he discovered a deep plot to turn the world over to the Vatican. This time he has caught Woodrow Wilson in the act of stealing the presidency for the third time. If Sherman could bark, he would bay at the moon, and if he could growl he would be a calamity bowler, awakening the neighborhood at nights with his dismal wailing. Senator Sherman is grieved over the thought that the President has the sublime assurance to asperse senators. One of the most popular oastimes in the United States today is expressing disgust over the wearisome talk, without action, on the part of the United States senate, sen-ate, and Woodrow Wilson would be an odd fellow if he did not join in the chorus. After having expressed a dislike for Wilson because the Presided speaks his mind as to the conduct of the senators, the Illinois statesman states-man relieves himself of much bile by describing the President's utterances ut-terances as "from a cavern of counterfeit moralities and a cockloft of scholastic gabble." |
