The welfare of Flatville—nay, the State—aye, even the Nation—stands menaced to-day by an unscrupulous demagogue, a self-seeker who, we do not hesitate to assert without fear of successful contradiction, would gladly sacrifice upon the altar of his private political aspirations the future of his country ! This man, this snake in the grass, this peril to humanity is, as all thinking citizens must realize, none other than BartHotomew Sguisss, now running as candidate for re-election to the po- sition of Superintendent of Street Crossings and Curbstones! Should the human flotsam and jet- sam which course through the gutters of even so model a community as Flat- ville succeed, by the conscienceless em- ployment of repeaters, thugs and gang- sters, in foisting such a creature as Squisss upon the intelligent and en- lightened citizenry of Flatville, then liberty and freedom of thought and ac- tion will indeed have vanished from this earth! There is no limit to Squipss’s base aspirations for personal aggrandize- ment. Under his administration, the congestion at street crossings has in- creased shockingly, while the condition of the curbstone at Elm and Cedar Streets is nothing less than a disgrace! Visitors from Hilldale, Valleyburg and Summit, sunk though those cities may be in political corruption, point to it with derision! Squisss and his ilk must go! Shall this cancer in the form of a man shame the fair name of Flatville? NEVER! The Trumpet-Clarion calls upon the voters to do their duty. PUT PLUNKETT IN! PUT SQUIBBS OUT! (The Editorial That Did Appear) It was with a profound shock and sense of personal loss that the Trumpet- Clarion learned to-day of the sudden death of Mr. Bartuotomew Sguises, respected and beloved Superintendent of Street Crossings and Curbstones. In the public eye throughout almost all of his long career, Mr. Squisss gave incessantly and continuously of his time and service to the people of Flatville. That he was due to receive his reward seemed certain by the ap- parent determination of his fellow citizens to re-elect him to the high office which he had once administered and to which he appeared destined by fate. BartHotomew Squisss attained the superintendency when the street cross- ings of Flatville were in such a condi- tion as to be almost a reproach.
