NOTHING TO DO.
BY II. CLAY PREUSS.

Why, In this beautiful vineyard of God
The noblest of lands that foot ever trod
With domain so rich, and u climate so fair,
Where man walks the earth as free as the air
Why, in this land of the Red, White and Blue"
Are SO many thousands with nothing TO do?
The masses run mad with desire for gain
All would grow rich without labor or pain.
Hard, old fashion work they view with disgust
And would clutch, in a moment, the bright
yellow dust"
BY trckiDg, by gambling, or some baser way,
All madly aspire to be rich in q day.
But failures are many, and fortunes are few,
And so there are thousands with nothing 10 do
Is crushing the life from our beautiful land.
Our high men in power are bought by its gold
And already IL rules us as tyrants of DID,
Millions are taxed to enrich but he few,
And thousands are starving with nothing to do.
The Trades Union men, like poor wretched tools,
Are aping the rich by their hard, selfish rules.
They deny the poor right to our young people
now
Of learning their bread by the sweat OF their
Our country is filled with sad helpless crew
OF young men and women with nothing to do.
And this rising race, who should build up our
state,
All! what in the future will be their sad fate
How will they live, and how will they die
Let the poorhouse, the prison, and gibbet reply !
Fathers and mothers, oh think of the doom
That awaits your own blood in the future TO
come. Of
All! terrible fact, that alton must rue,
SO many thousands, and nothing to dol
