SENATOR GEORGE W. IRVING OF CARIBOU. F I WERE rich I tell you now, just what I'd like to do. I'd leave this dreary part of ~Iaine and go to Caribou; I wouldn't like to be a king, but if I had my way, I'd like to be the Senator from up Aroostook way.

Just fancy all the fun 'twould be, to stand up in your place And think:-"Aroostook's lOOking on my bright and shining face; What do I care, it' envy carps or malice loudly cries; Potato-land looks on in pride, with all her million eyes." Some folks are stuck on Cumberland and some on Somerset; But Irving fills the niche I need; the place I want to get; Yet:-one thing, bet your life I know, that I could never do And that is fill the place he fills, up there in Caribou. Why, once I visited the town that Irving represents And banks and water-works are his; potato fields immense. In business life, in doing things, he does the work of three, A first-class leading citizen; he's worth a raft of me. Of course a man can't always choose, just what he'd like to do Or if be does, be may not have the sand to put it thru; But if for once, I stood in well and had my lucky day, I'd like to have George Irving's place from up Aroostook way.
