HON. CYRUS W. DAVIS OF WATERVILLE.
FULL twice he's led the hosts to war, as Cyrus did of old; And twice he's pushed his way afar, into the foeman's fold. With him as leader, party lines played wholly different parts And confidence replaced despair, in democratic hearts. But not alone, in politics, has Davis won his way! He tapped the Colorado hills and made them tribute pay; He stirred to life a weary press, to wake the sleeping host; To give them heart and hope, anew - a Sentinel at the post. A suave and courteous gentleman, a speaker strong and true, He's won his way by doing things and knowing what to do. Thruout the State he's recognized, as one of force and power; A credit to the State of Maine - a "Man for Any Hour."
