...wide part troop the unsuspecting horses, then the passageway narrows and soon they pour through the funnel's spout and into the pen. Last week Catcher Skelton and his band, either because of natural exuberance or because of the upsetting effect of a bad thunderstorm, stampeded a bunch of horses on their way to the corral. There followed a thundering herd effect which would have gladdened any cinemactor's heart. The lightning flashed. The thunder banged. The cowboys whooped.

...With the exception of Norris of Nebraska, now dejected and despondent over the hopelessness of his long struggle, and Tom Walsh of Montana, an able man but always vain and sometimes sentimental, the so-called Progressives in the United States Senate are a sorry bunch of weaklings and timeservers. The Liberals of America are always getting fooled, but never have they been worse fooled than by this small, forlorn and measly gang of false leaders...
