They do n't even need to play the same piece unless they want to ; but keep 'em busy -- play everything they have and then repeat softly , and if they get tired feed 'em and give 'em something to drink . And tell Johnson , the precinct captain , when he comes about eight o'clock , to come on in with his friends , the whole gang -- the door is open and there 's no strings on it , and no strings on the new alderman . '' Old Man Wisner must have been enjoying his life that evening while we was celebrating our being alderman . Bonnie Bell she did n't approve of this none , but she knowed that when her pa was in one sort of mood she 'd better leave him alone and let him have his way -- there was n't no stopping him . After a while Johnson , the precinct captain that had had this election in charge , he come in to have a talk with the new alderman , him and a lot more .
