Polly sat in her golden cage,
Rumpling her feathers and screaming;
Puss looked up, demure and sage,
Yet her brain with mischief was teeming.
"Ah me!' quoth puss, what lovely bird,
And what charming songs you're singing"
Polly answered never a word,
But she ceased her chattering and swinging.
"HA, hA, thought the wretch, GIVE made an i'm
preston;
must follow it up, to be sure
1t will only require very brief session
My victim to please and allure.
"Your eyes are so bright, your plumAge 80 pretty,
Rainbows pale at the sight OF such hues;
l think 1t shame, an exceeding great pity,
People should talk and your beauty abuse.
Now do not believe bit OF their story,
And have said so again and again TO my friends;
But they only laugh when praise your glory,
And say 'Tis done for your own private ends.'
Polly" purred pussy, eying her prey,
people pretend that your wonderful color
Is one that is made and renewed every day,
And II sprinked with water would look much duleT.
Such foolish twaddle OF course is untrue;
To prove 1t, pray give me gorgeous feather,
Whichever appears the fairest to you,
Then will assemble my friends together
And try your colors by wind and weather."
"Nay, nay" cried Poll, ''I'm not fool
To submit myself to your treacherous rule;
For score of years, or more, pdTty-cOiOTed Ives
Have been freely spilled to these so-cAlled dyes
Yet to-day they shine brighter than those OF yore
And withstand all attacks Of my enemies lore;
So, pussy, prithee, gang your ain gait
l am too old a bird TO be caught with such bAiti"

order here. 1t is not important 30 far as any
thing that l will have TO say to you is con-
cerned, because shall not be able to make
many of you hear, but after me comes a
speaker whom l know you will all be glad to
hear, and you can do so by keeping quiet and
orderly. Not being accustomed to speaking
publicly, have drawn off few words.

character and ability of the speaker (Senator
Conkling) who is to address you to-day, and
his long public career and association with
the leading statesmen of this country for the
past 20 years, it would not be becoming in
me to detain you with many remarks of my
own, but it may be proper for me to account
to you, on the first occasion of my presiding
at political meetings, for the faith that is in
me. / am a Republican, as the two great po-
litical parties are now divided, because the
Republican party is national party, seeking

its citizens. There is not a precinct in this
vast nation where Democrat cannot cast his

Probably the worst telegraphic blunder on
record was one that occurred recently In a
telegram received by st. Louis merchant
while in New York. A dispatch came inform
ing him of the illness of his wife in st. Louis.
He sent message to his family doctor, ask
ing the nature of the sickness and if there
was any danger, and received promptly the
answer; mo danger. Your wife has had

that the indisposed lady had had "ohill."

When the People Speak.

In spite O. the tribe of Cameron,
Or any other political clique,
The will of the me- sses shall be done,
And the course OF justice must be run,
When the people speak.
Though leader this and ruler that
Their selfish ends will always seek,
The people know what such are at,
And all their best aid schemes fall fat,
When the people speak.
The people now, as heretofore,
Can mend fence or stop leak,
And men who waste the public store
Their mercy will in vain implore,
When the people speak.
No man should boast himself too much
OF strength of will or fofc. OF cheek:
For yet the balloi's Lightning touch
Nav make sudden end OF such,
When the pt o ple speak.
Long sufr'ring though our freemen are,
Aud slow in tie revenge they wreak,
Yet he who dares their path to bar
Wi surely fall both fast and lar,
Wnen the people speak.
It is the ballot that at last
Must rule the hau shty and the meek,
And in the future, as In the past,
For truth and right it will be cast,
When the people speak.

| In the national conventions of the
Democratic party since 1868, the basis
of representation has been to allow
States two delegates for each Presiden.

representation is flagrantly unjust to
the Democratic States can scarcely be
doubted by any one who will take the
trouble to look into its practical work.

down as certain to give their votes for
the Democratic nominee in November,
will be entitled to 276 delegates in the
next convention if the old basis re-

duty many white men whose services were
not really required because they did not
wish to discharge old employees; that the
company would respect the laws as construed
BY the courts, and in the management of its
business would be governed under the laws
entirely by consideration of what it deems
the wisest policy. The assembly to-day
passed the bill to empower the clause Of the
constitution at issue BY a vote of 70 to2, and
the governor promptly signed it. A dis
patch announcing the governors action was
read at the sand lot during the meeting and
greeted with prolonged cheers for the bill

some settlement of the matter, as it will
