Fellow plutocrats, aristocrats and autocrats, let us steel—ourselves—yea, to callousness against the crime of being misunderstood by the molten masses and betrayed from within by the two-faced Tom Lawson!

HER SPECIALTY.

There’s a prejudice extensive ’gainst the Russian and his ways,

For the ruler or his people there is very little praise;

In the hurried march of progress they are badly out of date

(By the way, they’ve information on this subject just of late);

But with all their backward learning, yea, their sodden ignorance,

In one respect the Russians lead us all a merry dance

In a single branch of knowledge they can put us all to shame,

They can give us every face-card and then skin us at the game.
