THE SAME OLD STORY
When Julius Ceasar went to town
To purchase steaks and chops and
such.
He tried to beat the butchers down
And swore their prices were too
much.
"Two cents a pound for steak,” he
roared.
"Why, man, that's nothing short of
crime.
You butchers are a greedy horde.
It cost but one in Noah’s time!"
When Ollie Cromwell went to shop
For beef and mutton and the like,
He said if prices didn't drop
He'd spit the butchers on a spike.
“Six cents a pound for steak,” he
said.
It’s more than honest men can pay.
You folks are robbers, on the dead,
It cost but two in Caesar's day!”
Today when we go out and find
That beef is thirty cents a pound.
We tarry there and speak our mind
And scatter savage words around.
'Twas ever thus, in every age,
In every time and clime and season
The price of meat has made men rage,
And always with abundant reason.
Otto Lane is in town from the
Granby mine. It is reported that he
will leave soon for the States.
