Te II me not in cheerful numbers 81
Hard times il an empty dream:
he who says So only slumbere-
Times are harder than they seem
Moneys tight Chats sober earnestly,
And our purse 10 not it's goal
Dust for labor now Teturnest'
Don't return '-'pon my soul,
Not prosperity, but sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
And to learn that each to morrow
Finds Us poorer than to- day.
Credits long, and cash is fleeing,
And our hearts, though stout and brave
iremD!e win a strange dead-beat ling
And it makes us very grave.
In the worlds broad field of battle,
In the race for wealthy life,
Be not sold like driven cattle
Sell some other in the strife.
Trust no mortal-hOwe'er pleasant,
Be not stupid, slow. or dead;
Watch your chances in the present,
Else you'll never be ahead.
Lives of rich men all remind us
We can be like them, sublime;
And departing leave behind us
Deeds of trust on sands of time;
Notes and checks, and p'rhaps some other
Kinds OF wealth. that in the main,
A forlorn and spendthrift brother
May quite promptly spend again.
Let us. then, be up and doing,
Withta heart for any fate:
Still while we are stamps pursuing,
Learn to Labor and to Wait.

rINANcIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Business generally has been fair during the
week, and the farmers are busy attending to
their crops, and for this reason very little grain
is coming in. After the high prices received
during the past year or SO, the present price
seems quite low, but from present prospects OF
the coming crop, those who are waiting for high
prices are likely to wait in vain.
The money market is quiet, and the supply OF
funds sm H. The denan of regular customers
at the banks are utually met, but outside parties

In Chicago the market is reported easy, with
loans on call at from & TO ! per cent. Time
paper is generally taken at 10 per cent, although
loans at lower rate reported.
The gold market has been steady and firm

DEATH or lIoRAcE HAwEs.-uorace Halves
died in San Francisco Sunday last aged SO
years. He came to California as early as
1916 and has been at times prominently be-
fore the public as lawyer ard legislator.
lie was the author of the ''Great Register"
law. The Alta has the following in relation
to him:
''lIe served three or four terms in the
Legislature. In 1856 he framed the CONSOLE
datior bill, which effected great reform in
tho Government OF San Francisco; in 1868
and 1864 he represented this county and San
Mateo in the Senate and in 1866 he drew the
registry law, which is still in force. He was
sharp lawyer, close business man and a
ehrewd legislator. He laid the foundation of
his fortune soon after his arrival in this city,
and his estate is estimated at 1000, 900 or
more. Qrly last week his deed was made
public, granting property worth more than
one million for the establishment of Univer-
sity, though encumbered by conditions that
will probably defeat the object !; SO bis de-
scendants, it not his widow and children,
will, we presume, come into possession Of it

Hampshire Yesterday, seem to have lost the
Governor. all the Congressman, the Council
and probably the Senate, while the House is
only claimed for the Republicans by ma
jority Of from 10 to 90 in body Of over 800
members. On vote from l65 towns the
Republicans gain on last years vote 900,
while the Democrats gain 3, 436-a net Demo-
cratic gain Of 9, 476.

Statesman thus sums up the causes of the Re-
publican defeat. Had Charles Sumner not

Senete Committee on Foreign Affairs the Re.

the San Domingo scheme been left to the
operation Of natural causes instead Of being

our commerce to the extent and Importance il
had before the rebellion, it would have been

PROBABLE HoMlcIDE.-We learn from the
Stockton Independent of Thursday, that Pat
rick Gibbons and Martin LAWN, had dis
pute about their right to piece of land in
San Joaquin county. On Wednesday LAWN
approached Gibbans who was on the land in
dispute, When Gibbons warned him not to
come nearer and grasoed his gun which was
standing against tree. LAWN fred and the
shot struck the ground between the parties,
when Gibbons drew one trigger of his gun
and the cap snapped or exploded without
discharging Immediately LAWN fred the
second barrel of his gun, missing Gibbons,
threw the gun down and turned slightly to
one side as if in the sct of drawing pistol,
when Gibbons fired the second barrel of his
gun, the charge taking effect on LAWNS head.
Gibbons voluntarily surrendered himself to
the Justice of the Peace. at Poland, who
brought him to Stockton. This is the priso-
ner's version of the affair.

ARRIVAL OF Ex-CoNGREssMAN JOHNSON
The Examiner of Tuesday says: Hon. JAS.
j. johnson, late Congressman from the Third
District, arrived at San Jose last night with
his family. lie was met at Truckee by some
of his personal and political friends, who es-
corted him in. 1t is understood that Mr.. j.
will Immediately commence o canvass for
nomination at the hands of the Democratic
State Convention for Governor. This he has
a right to do. The Office he seeks is high
one, and bis aspirations are laudabIe. OF
course he will avail himself of an early occa-
sion to define his position on the all-absorbing
topic of subsidies to railroad men. This sub
ject was brought home to the people Of this
State last Winter in such manner as to
awaken very widespread and abiding inter
est. The Democratic Convention will be call
ed upon to speak out most emrhatically in
the premises. The people have an interest
in knowing the views and opinions of those
who come before them for office on such mat
ters of interest as have bearing on their
welfare. As Mr.. j. has never shown dis
position to reticence when occasion required
that he should be heard, we look with conf
dence to an early declaration of opinion on
the indicated tonic. In the meantime, we
welcome him back to the bosom of his con-
stituency with none other than the most kind
ly feelings of respect and friendship.

A TELLING CoNMENTARY.--The united
members of the Legislature of South Carolina
pay taxes to the amount of 1921 So The
Legislature is made up Of uneducated negroes
just out of cotton fields, greedy and uncon
scionable adventures from New England
with very small sprinkling Of scalawags
The negroes have the majority. This body
has the power, and exercises it too, of ir,pos
ing millions Of taxes upon the property-hold-
ers of the State. Two-thirds of the members
were elected by the grossest frauds. Is there
any wonder that anarchy prevails in portions
of the State? This is telling commentary
on Radical reconstruction. It's whole tenden

sion. We can now understand wha. Gram
