"Shut up!" murmured Kent. The squaw made her way up to John.

"Why, my dear child, there's nothing to worry about!" he exclaimed. "You mean you're going to stop talking for Mr. Levine? Oh, Daddy, don't do that! We can borrow the money somewhere and I'll help pay it back. I'm almost grown up now." "'Stop talking'!" roared Amos.

"Do you think Mr. Levine'll get elected?" Amos shrugged his shoulders. "Never can tell. This is a Democratic town, but Levine is standing for something both Democrats and Republicans want. It'll be a pretty fight. May split the Democratic party." This was the beginning of Lydia's reading of the newspapers.
