Ain't it great?
Just look back a few years.

You remember the People's Municipal League that nominated Frank Scott for mayor in 1890?
Do you remember the reformers that got up that league?
Have you ever heard of them since?
I haven't.

Scott himself survived because he had always been a first-rate politician.

But you'd have to look in the newspaper almanacs of 1891 to find out who made up the People's Municipal League.

Oh, yes! I remember one name: Ollie Teall; dear, pretty Ollie and his big dog.
