Why wear we steel? for what are these idle weapons in our hands?
"You don't know," he said. "Do you know?" I asked. "Have you been to the rallies and met the men and studied their methods?" "All you have to do is to read the papers," he answered.

There were imitation rallies and parades and receptions to candidates and mock banquets with real speeches and fudges and crackers to eat. She made a perfectly splendid presidential candidate at one of the meetings.
