can guess now that ho is dead.
Knowing Grippe is very bai now,
we cut him open to see what had
gripped him. We. found seven
largo Unpenectly digested bacn
elor pancakes in his stomach, a
, big lot of Socialist bile on his
liver, and the last Lincoln
. County Leader In his hand. I
don't know which killed him.
He had marked two' articles
for comment, no doubt. The
eloquent one of the County
Court he had marked "Able."
The correspondence from New
port, abqut the benefits of whis
key and beer was also marked
"able" with a cuss word before
it. Our diseased friend never
drank anything stronger than
6-year old vinegar. On tho
table before the body were four
unpaid tax bills on a half sec
tion of land in Section 18, T.
11 S, and R. 11 W. We figured
that""was out on Yaquina bar
somewhere, but it belongs to
Lincoln County and should bear
its chare of taxes.
In his pocket we found an Al
Waugh nickel so we bought no
coffin. There being no wet
goods boxes In Skookum I fur
nished 'a dry-goods box. We
put the body in the box with an
Appeal to Reason about' the
