Dear God, I am 30 weary Of IT all,

Is there 10 great rock where the shadows fall.
That may cast me down and hide nv face
I work and strive sore burlen--d and afraid
The way Is hinty and the road Is long,
And tie weak staff whereby my Steps are STAYED
Bends ike 4 reed when bitter winds are srrcDg
The lofty thought proves fruitIess 10 the deed;
The Prize I toll for seems q glittsring lie,
There is 10 oomtor: ior the present need,
No guerdon promised for futurity.

And ask - only hCpel, s. hearts can ask,

pared TO recognize - part Of the Demo-
cratic state ADMINISTRATION. We do not
suppose he will attempt TO take forcible
possession Of the Executive Office by the
Aid OF his rife clubs. though Il IL obvious
what will happen II he does. He may issue
certificates Of election to some candidates
for county Offices whs have been defeated
by Republicans, and he may, In Q variety
OF ways. spread confusion and anarchy
throughout the Stats, but 10 10 probable he
will be reduced 10 the occupation Of the
position Of . mere gubsrnatorial p~rstendsr,
with q chance Of dropping out Of sight like
McEnery OF Louisiana. or running through
his brief career Of usurpatisn and violence
like Brooks In Arkansas.

Knights Of the Golden Circle. Sons Of Lib

JEANNETrE AND 10.

Two girls knOw-Jeannette and 10,
And one is always moping:
The other lasSle, come what may,
Is ever bUavely heping
Beauty of face and girlish grace
Are theirs, for Joy or sorrow
Jeanette takes brightly every day,
And Jo breads each tomorrow.
One early morn they watched the dawn -
saw them stand together;
Their whole days sport, twas very PLAIN,
Depended on the weather.
Twill storm !" cred 10. Jeanette spoke
low:
Eyes, but twill soon be over "
And, as she spoke, the sudden shower
Came, beating down the clover.
" l told you so I" cried angry Jo;
ut always is a-raining !"
Theu MD her face in dire despair,
Lamenting and complaining.
But sweet Jeanette, quite hopeful yef,-
| tell it to her honor,-
Looked up and waited till the sun
Came streaming in upon her;
Tbe broken clouds sailed off in crowds,
Across a sea of glory
Jeanette and 10 ran, laughing. in
Which ends my simple story
Joy s divine Come storm, come shine,
The hopeful are the gladdest;
And doubt dread dear girls, believe
OF all things are the saddesE,
In mornings light, let youth be bright;
Take in the sunshine tender;
Then, ut the close, shall lite' decline
Be full of sunset splendor-
And ye who fret, try, like Jeanette,
TO shun ali weak complaining;
And not, like 10, cry out too soon:
1T alvays is a raining !"
