...Brooms. A dozen women, fed up with the male politicos who had increased municipal debt while letting the town decay, formed their own "United for Walsenburg" party, drafted a stern austerity platform calling for prompt payment of the town's debts and no salaries for the mayor and town council. The women pored over civics textbooks, stormed into meetings of the all-male city council, journeyed to Denver to seek advice from Democratic Governor Stephen McNichols. Though Walsenburg had never before elected a woman to any office, the United party put up a slate of seven of them, recruited...

Then the slashing softens to pawing and a fond chewing of necks. One hundred days later, the female gives birth to two kittens, one black, one spotted...
...kittens includes a comical first swimming lesson and a violent illustration of how to annoy a cayman (South American crocodilian). As the kits watch, the mother creeps up, whacks the tail of an enormous cayman, then darts back as it lunges for her. The game continues until the male jaguar takes over, feints past the cayman's jaws, gets a death grip and drowns the reptile. The jaguars lose no battles, although their prey sometimes escapes.
