THREE SMALL BOYS.

Tree small lads, in their childish glee,
Chased q butterfly over the lee;
Keeping its brilliant wings in view.
Fast they followed, as fast it few,
Hither and thither with eager eyes,
Ran the children to Sc ize their prize;
Swinging their kerchiefs deftly looped,
On they hurried and leaped and stopped.
One In his palm had deemed 1t caught;
on it darted rs swift as thought.
Then there was laughter from all and each,
Mirthful shoutings and merry speech;
Till the luckiest boy of the band
Caught and showed it alive in his hand.
=" Pay the prize money. pay my due.''
Cried the boy and quarrel grew.
All were struggling; the butterfly,
Snatched at, and squeezed, and pU"ed away,
Lost what made it desired before;
Lost the beautiful wings it wore;
Only q bare worm met their eyes.
So with rs. who have long pursued
Eagerly some unreal good,
After our struggles aud all our pains
Only the naked cheat remains.

Is this your love for the soldier2 The
bounty bill would long ago haye been
law if General Grant had not been
the tool of the money power. They
resist all expenditure not in their in
terest. They are very economical
when they don't profit. And it is not
likely that my competitor will ever be
able to accomplish In his party what
was too difficult f,- the abilities and
influence of General Schenck and Mr..
Gunckel. The Republican party cheer
fully voted over five hundred millions
Of dollars into the pockets of the bond
holder by the infamous act of 1869,
but in ten long years it gagged at the
passage of q law to eaualize the boun-
ties of the soldiers at an estimated
cost of only thirty millions. In 1875
it almost ruined the whole country in
the interest of the creditor class by the
passage OF the Resumption law. But
it adjourned, and went out Of power
in the lower House without making
a law of the bill for the arrearages of
pensions or the equalization of boun-
ties. 1t is rather late now to promise
amends. The soldier is not fool that
he can be caught by cheap clap trap.
He AAs had his surfeit of that. i have
always supported this just measure
and always will. Bot my judgment
is that this claim must be made An is
sue, not only now, but in the next
Presidential campaign as we'll. The
House has always been willing, but
we must convert the Senate and have
a friend in he Presidential chair.

repeatedly been made of the dime concert
