SENATOR E. L. PHILOON OF AUBURN.
HO the Senator's a democrat. he's built on broader l1n~,
Than mere partisanship, in politics, so commonly assi2DS:
And. for years he has exempWled what democrats should use.
By standing for and stan~ in "an honest pair ot shoes."
But alas! ot shoes and democrats. SUPlllies were incomplete,
;80 he went to maki~ shoes and votes; and ~ot there with both teet.
His support was so well ~unded; it became a babit soon
-To break the lines of party and to rally for Philoon;
But he justified their confidence, by knuckling not to r~
-Which we consider quite a marvel, in the present state of things.
-Thus. we sent him to Augusta, where be helped to make the laws
_
And he nover l>roved disloyal to the unlversaI cause.
His hobby's education and he's appointed by the State;_
l\'Iaine's new Board of Education to devise and form ulate.
-He a "Pilgrim" by adoption, as well as by descent;
He's a cordial friend and nei~hbor-a man of hi~h intent;
'If the world bad more just like him. we could forestal our present fa
And could cast our votes for cbaracrer; and not for politics.
