So you see that Caesar and Leary and me's in the same boat, only I'll come out on top while Caesar and Leary went under.
Now let me tell you that the ingrate in politics never flourishes long.
I can give you lots of examples.

Look at the men who done up Roscoe Conkling when he resigned from the United States Senate and went to Albany to ask for re-election! What's become of them?
Passed from view like a movin' picture.

Who took Conkling's place in the Senate?
Twenty dollars even that you can't remember his name without looking in the almanac.

And poor old Plattt He's down and out now and Odell is in the saddle, but that don't mean that he'll always be in the saddle.

His enemies are workin' hard all the time to do him, and I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he went out before the next State campaign.
The politicians who make a lastin' success in politics are the men who are always loyal to their friends, even up to the gate of State prison, if necessary; men who keep their promises and never lie.
