The tax on lumber and on salt are parts of our 'protective system. Now the Mc. plank discloses that rather than reduce the tax on lumber, the Rep. party will repeal the tax on oleo butter. How many farmers' votes will that give us?
Concluding that this was all the comfort that he could have, and that I might as well gratify him, I cut up some of the weed, filled his pipe and lighted it. He smoked calmly and almost happily all the afternoon, hardly speaking a word to me. As it grew dark he asked me to bring him a drink. I did so, and as I raised him up he said: "Mc, this thing's ended.
She rose, went to the window, came back to the table, stood there a moment, her eyes fixed on something far away. The swinging door between dining-room and butler's pantry opened. Annie, in her neat blue-and-white stripes, stood before her. "Shall it be steak or chops to-night, Mrs. Mc Buck?" Emma turned her head in Annie's direction then her eyes. The two actions were distinct and separate.
Give back to me the life that is real and the light that is real. Give mc back my prowess! If not, I will kill you, you wicked woman!" With a smile she shook her head as if to refuse.

The moment I arrived at the top my guide Donald Mc Kay who knew perfectly the whole Yakima range, discovered Nesmith's mistake. Word was sent to bring him back, but as he had already nearly crossed the plateau, considerable delay occurred before he returned.

McDowell, with forty thousand men, lay at Fredericksburg, with nothing in his front but a few squadrons of cavalry and some infantry regiments. Johnston was thus apprehensive that he might undertake to come down upon his flanks and re-enforce "Little Mc." or the "Young Napoleon," as the commander of the Federal Army was now called.
Andrews and I held a council of war on the situation, the question before the house being whether we would go with that crowd, or stay behind. The conclusion we came to was thus stated by Andrews: "Now, Mc., we've flanked ahead every time, and see how we've come out. We flanked into the first squad that left Richmond, and we were consequently in the first that got into Andersonville.
He flung himself down beside the detective, and plunged his hand amongst the rubble, then ceased and faced the detective, mute, despairing. 'Well, well, cried Downy in alarm, 'what is it? 'Gone! whispered Dick. 'Gone? Are you sure? We have not searched yet. 'It's gone! 'You may have made a mistake. Hardy, Mc Knight, lend a hand here. 'No good, said Dick, 'it's gone. it's stolen.
