Written on the death of
Neddie Fitzgerald.

A pure sweet flower to us was given
To bring us nearer heaven:
Our little child so good so wise,
Is with the Lord in Paradise.
Why should we murmur st the rod,
That ever leads us nearer God;
This heavy trial has been sent,
To save from future punishment;
That we may tread affections path,
And thus avert h is greater wrath.
Ina gination brings to me
The childish face we loved to see,
Again IN tones distinct and clear,
The music of his voice we hear.
While tears of sorrow o er us steal,
His loving kisses still we feel.
He is not dead he's gone before,
To op'n for us the pearly door,
That we, when freed from self and sin.
The field Of light may enter in.
So guided by religious spark,
Win forward press to reach the mark.
And though afflicted. not cast down,
Win bear the cross to wear the crown

Pump Carpenter Pump is up

Pump Carpenter.-Pump is up
in this part of the country canvassing
for his paper, the Madison Patriot.
Pump did not expect to make politi-
cal speech at all--in fact he had almost
made up his mind that he never would
make another. Pump isn't much of
party man." you know. But the
''boys'' at Wausau, at the Point and
at this place "mveigled" him into
making speech, and by a strange
freak of fortune he happened to have
some hand bills in his little carpet
satchel that he had printed in his Of
fee one day. (never expecting to use
them, Of course) while he was medi-
tating upon the chances Of another
Democratic Legislature, and the con-
sequent allowance of the balance of
that $4,000 printing claim. The
hand bills announced that S. D. Car
penter, would address the people upon
the question Of ''Dollars and Sense. -
Well, we don't know what persuasive
influences the "boys" brought to bear
on Pump, but at any rate they ''in-
weighed" him and got him to put his
foot into it.
Pump told a good many truths, but
he apologized in his opening by saying
that he did not intend to. That was
what he said in substance, but suppose
he meant that he did not intend to
make speech-but the boys 'Inveigl-
ed him you know. He made great
many statements that we never heard
any one question. He advanced GER
tain theories that he undoubtedly
thought were sound, that we doubt if
there is another man in the United
States will assent to them.
He wilfully and deliberately attempt
ed to mislead his audience by several
misstatements. He conveyed the
impression to the minds of many that
r. B. Hayes, the Republican candi-
date for the Presidency, voted for and
partook Of the back-pay. He knew
this was false. He knows that it was
