ONLY WAITING.

Only waiting till the shadows
Are little longer grown:
Only waiting till the giimmer
or tho days last beam is flown;
TIL the night of earth Is faded
From the heart, once full of day;
Till the stars ofheaven are breaking
Through the twilight soft and gray.
ONLY waltingtill the reapers
Have the last sheaf gathered home;
For the summertime Is faded,
And the autumn winds have. come.
Quickly, reapers gather quickly
The last ripe hours Of my heart;
For the bloom Of life is withored,
And hasten to depart.
Only waiting Till the angels
Open wide the mistyc gate,
At whose feet long have fingered,
Weary, poor, and desolate;
Even now hear the footsteps,
And the voices for away;
II they call me ! am waiting,
Only waiting to obey.
Only waiting till the shadows
Are a little longer grown;
Only waiting till tie glimmer
or the days last benm Is flown:
Then from out the gathering darkness
Holy. deatnless stars shall rise,
BY whose light my soul shall gladly
Tread II pathway to the skies.

COMBINATION PATENT.n
UPRIGHT STEAM SAW MILL

This mill commands the universal admiration of saw
mill men everywhere. As its merits become known, the
section Of this country, Canada, Cuba, and South Ameri-
ca. II is suited for every section Of the world wherever
there is timber TO be sawed, no matter OF what character
how hard, how large or how small. Two extensive ma
nufactories are now engaged in building these mills, yet
il is almost impossible TO turn them out as fast as they
are wanted. They embrace several valuable patents
and improvements, aud combine all Of the following ad-
Simpiicify-BOth the mill and power are so simple in
their construction that any one Of ordinary mechanical
ability can comprehend them, put them up and run them
without danger or difficulty.
PorfabiHfy-The whole establishment can be very
quickly taken apart and put together, thus rendering it
easy to be moved from place to place asdesired. and saw
ing the necessity of drawing the logs A long distance to
Durdbility-It is constructed in the most solid and
substantial manner, runs perfectly still, is not liable to
get out of order, and will last for years without repair.
RdDidifV-It will saw faster than any other upright
upright mill. The speed of the saw is about three hun
dFed strokes per minute, and the feed from one-eighth to
three-quarters Of an inch per stroke. Thus, at a medium
speed the saw viii cut through a log twenty-four feet
long in about three minutes. From this data any one
knowing the character Of the timber can calculate how
much il will do.
Effciency-It does its work well, cuts smoother and
straighter than the ordinary mills, and the arrangement
| az the saw is such as 10 render it utterly impossible for
I il 10 run out of line.
Chedpness-The entire lost of the mill, with fifteen
horse power and everything all complete and ready for
running, boxed and ready for shipment in st. Louis, is
only S1.750.
This mill requires less power to drive than any other
mill, and the power furnished is sufficient to drive extra
machinery.

But the Register records ten ships-of-the-line.
Where are the other four? They are on the
stocks, and were just as far advanc d towards
completion forty years ago as they are to-
day. If you wish 10 know why they have
been 20 long there you are informed that they
are building under the auspices of a depart
ment which has so successfully demonstrated

that there is every probability that they never
will be finished. The New Orleans, q ship OF
81 guns and 2,s05 tons burden, was put on
the stocks at Stckett's Harbor in 1915; the
Alabama, 81 guns, 2,6S3 tons, at Kittery in
1918; the Virginia, same size aud rate, at
Charleston in 1918, and the New York, same
size and rate, at Norfolk, in the same year.

The responsibility, then, Of these enormous
expenditures according to GOV. johnson,
rests upon the Democratic Congresses, which
not only did not prevent, but created them.
We say, the responsibility rests npon the
Democratic Congresses and the Democratic
Administrations, in whose hands the executive
and legistive powers of the Government have
been for the last six years, with the single
exception, that in the 34th Congress, the OPP
position had a majority in the House OF Rep
resentatives, while the the Democrats had
majority of from IL to 20 votes in the Senate.
Again: Gov. johnson says, and says truly,
that the Government Is making-not that 1t
made under Wing Administration more than
six years ago-but that it is at present max
ing "more corrupt uses of money in proportion
| to the amount collected than any other gov
eminent now on the face of the habitable

most truly, that our Democratic rulers have
made this government the most corrupt one

Syren Song.

The new organ of the Administration, the
Constitution, says the Mobile Register, possesses
a happy and hopeful disposition. 1t thus
paints. Colour derOse the sound and harmonious
condition of the Democratic party OF the
Union:
'.It fills the heart of a Democrat with pride
to contrast the position of his own party with
that of the Opposition. While the latter is
composed OF a heterogeneous mass of ire
concilable elements, avowing the most anita
gonistic doctrines, fighting under every
variety of banners. and only agreeing among
themselves in one common sentiment of hos
tility to the Democracy, our own party stands
before the country the only representative of
a common faith, and the only reliable defen-
ers of common constitution. 1t matters
not where you meet true Observation-Disclosures
in Massachusetts or Virginia-yOu will find
him the advocate of the same cardinal
doctrines of constitutional right and justice
He carries with him the same platform of
principles. His notebook for Maine answers
as well for Florida and Minnesota as for his
I own State. 1t requires no change of programme
for each locality in which his battle is to be
fought"
The Montgomery (Alabama) Advertiser, in
commenting on the above, says:
"Now, we would that this were a true pic
ture. We do not believe it is, nor do we see
the wisdom, much less the honesty, of say
ing So and thus trying to deceive ourselves
or others. So far from being the truth il
there is a common ground upon which the
party, North and South, could stand, if called
into the Charleston Convention to-day, we
are not able to see il, and we have puzzled
our brain hugely to make the discovery
Fortunately, that convention is year of,
and something may turn up to afford us a
standing-place.
at is wiser to look the dangers that threat
en- the Democratic party and the country
(for they are inseparably bound together for
veal or wo) full in the face, and strive to
avert them, than to be bluring our boasts
which insult the common sense and knowledge
of every political Tyro. We are bound TO
confess we have never seen the time when
political confusion was worse confounded.'
"When we thought we were safely anchor
ed in the harbor of fair and honorable adjust
ment of a vexed and vital question, We are
all at sea again. The organ cannot bring us tn
land by swearing that we see the green fields
the cottage smoke and hear the birds and
brooks, while we are experiencing all the tn
multuOus heavings of old ocean, and paying
qualmish tributes to Neptune. Let the organ
do better. and from its central look out posi-
ton tell us where the haven of safety and o
honor is to be found and give US chart and
compass to steer for it. Give us deeds in oul
danger and keep the fair words for fair days
and holidays. There turks peril in the sur
charged atmosphere of the times and man
hood and Craftsmanship are needed to mee
it. Away with your straws and YOU
rattles."
