While the yunkers run and call,
Wonder where nv donkey goes
SWeltering from his tail TO nose,
Moving on with lazy pace,
JuSt below my resting place
Charcoal CHARCOAL loudly here I'm CRYING,
While the boys are mocking me with glee;
Hearts within the tenements sighing
That my coal they cannot now be buying,
Some without Too dear slow replying,
No! 1t cannot be.

Nurserymen whisper yed at the door,
Yea, like swift sailing canal boat 10 shore,

They've concluded to stop Inc and give me trial,
Quickly beginning,
My basket I'm spinning,
Toll through the cayernous NAV Of my cart
Toll where the coal dust the red eye doth smart
Toll with JOY and prospect in heart
Now praise 10 honest penny's grace,
Now praise to laborers blackened face,
Despite the dust, despite the price,

Long as our taxes range SO high
Long as the politician grows,
Long as the buZzards fill the sky,
Long as the treasury leaks and flows,
Long poor Truth doth lingering lie
Long the Thief to Office goes

Thy coal through weary throat and nose!

THE sINECURE SALARY.
But infers he was on the rolls under Bah
cocks immediate supervision and was
probably one OF the secretsry's numerous
private SIP oointees, as he was blessed with
many such. Let an examination OF the
rolls be made at once under that date OF
December, 1873, and the committee may
thus soon determine just what the status
of Mcdonald was. Mcdonald was most
unprincipled shsrS in everything, and In
all his schemes was aided by influence
from Washington. For instance, lucra-
tive device of his, as hereafter related,
could only be accom- plished through infor-
nation secretly furnished from the in
terror department. When astrsnger went
to Florida under the hospitable terms of

to hold ard improve IL for five
years. Frequently the squatters wan to
sell at the expiration of their Homestead
time, and W en- this is done they must
notify the lsud off e at Florida that they
want the entry cancelled in their names.
This information Is sent on to Washington,
and in due course of time the order comes
back to declare the land vacated
and ready for fresh entry.
This fret man who puts in a claim on the
arrival of this official decree is entitled TO
the property. Mcdonald, by collision
with parties at Washington, knew just
when The documents had been mailed and
when they would arrive. He was on
hand to the minute, and pounced onto the
homestead tracts as soon as the notification
had been read. Thus he would often foT
Sl4 90 obtain the title 10 lands thus
vacated technically for purposes of sale,
and frequently worth 81 600 or $1,000, after
having been improved with buildings and
cultivated. In case the purchaser had
paid, he had no remedy. In either case
\ Mcdonald had thrown some unsuspecting
mortal's tat in the fire. Let us investi-

GOOD WORDS FOR THE GOVERNOR
THE NEws MAKES MANLY STATEMENT
CONCERNING MR.. HENDRlCKs.

THE NEws MAKES A MANLY STATEMENT
CONCERNING MR.. HENDRICKs.
The News OF last evening editorially
said: The Journal is inquisitive as 10 how
Governor Hendricks made his money,
when he has been In public life so long.
This is a mean way OF limiting or insinuat-
ing that he may have done something dis
honest, or at least underbanded. Ii the
Journal knows anything to the detriment
of the governor, let il name it, but such
innuendoes are unworthy of it. Mr.. Hen
bricks has always been bard-workiDR,
thrifty man. He practiced law for over
twelve years in this city, and no mau in
the state had more business or got better
fees. He mas had land here and doubtless
shared the benefit of its appreciation with
hundreds ofothers. 1t is easy enough to see
where he has made money, and we suppose
the reason he has it is because he saved 1t.
Governor Hendricks's personal integrity
has never been impunged, and he has been
an exemplsr of most of the virtues that
dignity and ennoble private life. The
News can find much in bis public life to
criticiss and condemn, and there are weak
nesses in his character which it does not
like, but as a private citizen IL Gees in Mr..
Hendricks very much to admire and COM
mend.
