THE YEARS ARE PASSING BY.

The years are passing byi
We watch as from an open door
Their passage through times corndor;
Each shadow, in its falling, slopes
Across the graves of buried hopes;
The pulse Of being slower beats
Thro' winter SHOWS, thro' summer heats,
And faith and hope and love grow cold
AS we grow old, as we grow old
The years are passing byl
The years are passing byI
Times record hath such pages blurred,
With hasty deed, with bitter word,
Such sad mistakes mark all life's years,
We scarce can read, because of tears,
We see dead faces on the wall,
We hear dead voices in the hall,
We touch some hands on bended knee,
We kiss some lips we cannot seel
The years are passing byI
The years are passing byl
They carry with them as they go
The rain. the sunshine and the snow;
They leave behind the drift OF days
Wherein each soul some penance pays;
Some hopes we have, but not our own!
Some loves we cherish, not alone |
And there are leaves ard faded flowers
That tell sad tales in memory's hours,
The years are passing by
The years are passing byi
The seal of silence on our lips
We closer press. Times umbra dips
To deeper darkness down the lane
Thro' which we walk to hide our pain.
We smile and smile at one who bears
life untouched by grief or cares,
But when in solitude we wait
We bow our head at sorrows gate.
The years are passing by
The years are passing byl
Another joins the passing bandI
oh is there not some other land
Where compensation for all ills
The measure of life's being fills?
We wait the answer, but in vain;
The shadow fails; sense of pain
Rests on ug wheresoeer we go,
And whispers Of the sod and snow.
The years are passing byl

KEEP IT TO YOURSELF have
trouble-your feelings are injured, your
husband is unkind, your wife frets, your
home is not pleasant, your friends do
not treat you fairly, and things in gen.
eral move unpleasantly. Well, what of
it? Keep it to yourself. A smouldering
fire can be found and extinguished; but
when the Goals are scattered, who can
pick them up? Bury your sorrow. Tho
place for sad and disgusting things is
under the ground. A cut finger is not
benefited by pulling off the plaster and
exposing it to somebody's eye. Charity
covereth a multitude of sins. Things
thus covered are cured with scar; but
once published and con6ded to meddling
friends, there is no end to the trouble
they may cause. Keep it to yourself.

BEARING THE CROSS.
BY PATIENCE cRENsHAw.

Sufferer divine Thou who didst go
With toiling footsteps. sad and slow,
Bowed down beneath such weight of woe
As only thou canst ever know,
What debt Of loveI owe to thee
That thou the cross didst bear for mel
The pain, the shame, the grief. were thine,
The pardon and the peace are mine;
Springs in my heart thy life divine,
And opening heavens above me shine,
While all my powers sing praise to thee
That thou the cross hast borne for me.
And thou dost call me TO the cross,
And for Its sake all else but loss
Must esteem. Earth's gold is dross,
Her favor vain, her fame gloss;
How can they tempt me from the place
Where may look upon thy facet
In lowly fellowship with thee
Let me a burden-bearer be,
And for life's painful mystery
Teach me thy loving sympathy;
That SO my cross too may bear,
And so thy cup OF sorrow share.

LEARN THE VALUE OF MoNEY.-A
silver dollar represents days work of
a laborer 1t is given to boy. He
has no idea of what it has cost, or
what it is worth. He would be as like
ly to give dollar as dime for top
or any other toy. But if the boy has
learned to earn the dimes and dollars by
the sweat of his face, he knows the diff
erence. Hard work is to him meas
ure of values that can be rubbed out of
his mind. Let him learn by experience
that hundred dollars represents hum
dred weary days labor, and it seems a
great sum of money thousand dollars
is fortune, and ten thousand Dollars is
almost inconceivable, for 1T is far more
than he ever expects to possess. When
he has earned dollar, be thinks twice
before he spends it. He wants to invest
it SO as to get the full value of day S
work In 1t. 1t is great wrong to socle-
ty and to boy to bring him up to mans
estate without this knowledge. A fort
une at twenty-one without it is almost
inevitably thrown away.-With it and
a little capital to start on. he will make
his own fortune better than any one can
make it for him.

The EXPLOSION ON THE DU1.o.


One OF che great guns on the Italian
ironclad Duilio has exploded after being
fred several times, much as the Thun
derer's thirty-eight ton gun exploded.
These periodical accidents to big guns
seem to point to the possibility that
stage may have been reached at which the
size of the gun renders it difficult to insure
its safety. Since the Thunderer's explosion
the British Government has been expert
menting with another thirty eight ton gun
at Sheerness, and this one having been
purposely burst, it was found that it had
flown to pieces almost precisely in the
same way as the Thunderers gun. 1t
may be that there was radical
defect in the plan OF these
particular guns, but it is OBJ
viou- that the larger che gun is the
more difficult it must be to secure perfect
homogeneity in the enormous mass of
metal of which it is composed. Science
may invent means of overcoming such de-
fects as are capable of 'ascertainment, but
1T can never be possible to make sure that
these great CAMS are thoroughly sound
throughout, and as the bursting of one of
them in action must infict as much dam
age as the enemy could, it is possible that
these experiences may fix the limit of arm
ament Indeed the latest tendencies in
naval theory seem to he towards light and
swift vessels and comparatively small guns,

sAN FaANcIsco.s pILEaMA.

For the moment it appears that "peace
" rei9ns in Warsaw" or in San Francisco.
Whether the quiescence Of the Sandlotters
is attributable to the apparent fact that
the patience Of the aw-abiding people has
been exhausted, or to the preparations
which have been made for meeting any
outbreak, is of little consequence. The
important and perplexing fact remains that
this suspension OF menace and buster indi-
Gates no permanent change in the situation.
The Kearneyites may be cowed for the
moment. They may have realized that
they have carried their crusade against law
and order as far as it can be carried with
safety to themselves. Under the influence
of the concentration of Federal troops upon
San Francisco they may conclude that
discretion is the better part of
valor. But it is evident that this is
nothing more than momentary relief for
the plague ridden community they infest.
1t is not possible that one half of the peo-
pie can remain permanently on guard
against the other half. 1t is not possible
that San Francisco can always be protected
by United States troops. And it is folly
to doubt that when the pressure is re-
moved the Sandlotters will resume their
old practices, and proceed as vigorously as
before with their efforts to produce anarchy
and the destruction of society. The con-
flict between these men and the representa-
tives of American governmental doctrines
can in fact only be terminated in accordance
with republican theories, and to the saliva
ton of society, by the complete reassertion
of those doctrines at the polls. Kearneyism
must be SO beaten by The ballot that the
veriest demagogue will no longer be tempted
to pander to it for the sake of
place and power. There is no other recourse
short Of the precipitation of an armed
struggle, and that is a kind of remedy but
little, if at all, better than the disease
And because this is so, and because the
cause of the conservative elements in San
Francisco is necessarily that of the con-
sentative elements all through the State,
it is necessary that these elements every
where should unite in determined opposi-
ton to the anarchists whose vile conduct is
running California, and giving her an evil
name from which she may not recover
for a generation. This is evidently the
one great State issue of the immediate
future, and since it involves the destinies

it was shown that the charges relative to
the Dowd and Kennedy cases made against
me by paper opposing my candidacy for Chief of

Dowd in his cell. have means of knowing
what this bunko operator and convicted vagrant
may have communicated to them. Personally do

TIE ILEraIea TO-DAY.

1t is well that the business men of Sac
ramento have appreciated the Importance
of the election to-day, and determined to
give their undivided attention to it. We
have shown them what the issue il, and
there is but that one. 1t is Republican
ian, not in its partisan but in its broadcast
sense, that is here opposed to Kearneylsm
and all that the name implies. 1t is quite
as much the interest OF Democrats as of
Republicans that conservatism in govern
ment should be sustained and vindicated.
We have seen what San Francisco has had
to endure because her conservative
classes could not find time to go
to the polls. Let the people of
Sacramento lay that lesson to heart,
and so save themselves from like calam-
ity. There are no questions of politics
concerned at this election. 1t is sharply
defined and simple contest between the
elements which build up and strengthen
and sustain orderly and prosperous COM
munities, and the elements which seek to
tear them down. Our voters do not need
to be told that Kearneyism is prejudicial
to the growth and well being of any COM
munity. Its elevation to power is equiva-
lent to a stigma upon the capacity for
self-government of those who permit such
thing to occur. No city that has any
hopes for the future, or any ambition, or
any self-esteem, can allow Kearneyism
to triumph when its reputation is
possible. And it is perfectly apparent
that patience with it, and endur-
ance of it, have ceased to be
possible. Concessions only stimulate
its audacity and spur it to fresh excuses.
1t has reached a stage at which resistance
has become inevitable. preservation
is the first law of nature, and that law i'm
peratively demands that every man who
has sense enough to see the dangers threat
ening society shall cast his vote with the
representatives of law and order and
unfettered enterprise and thrift and in
dustry. We hope that SO good an account
will be given of Mr.. Minis and his ticket
to-day that he will never again venture
upon carpet bagging expedition across the
river, or barter his principles as an Ameri-
can citizen for nomination at the hands
of the Kearneyites.

WASTING TIE PEOPLES MONEY.

It may be very amusing to the Sand
Iotters in the Legislature TO play the
BUTTON by introducing bills whose only
recommendation is their monstrosity, but
1t is necessary to point out that they have
no right whatever to squander the peoples
money in printing and discussing such pre-
posterous measures. Assemblyman Maybell
has introduced decidedly the most ridicu-
lous bill of the kind referred TO- It pro-
vides for special tax upon Chinese, to be
levied upon those who employ them, and
it proceeds to declare it misdemeanor on
the part of any Court to declare this bid
unconstitutional This precious bill has
been ordered to be printed The Assembly
would do well to make its introducer
defray the expense of printing it,
for no member has right to waste public
funds in such way. Of course the bill
Is utterly, outrageously worthless, but
nevertheless it will cost money to dispose
OF it, and this is tax which the people
ought not to be expected to bear. The
people of San Francisco have re son to feel
ashamed when amember of thsir iiiegation
brings forward billsof such acharacter, butt
is intolerable that the whole State, which is
in no way responsible for the election of
Maybell, should be taxed to pay for his i'm
beeilities.

UNNECESSARY RETIcENcs.

It is rather singular that nobody seems
to know by whose orders the concentration
of Federal troops upon San Francisco is
being made. Washington dispatches state
that nothing is known at army headquar
tiers, or at the executive department, of
any such movements, and that no demand
for troops has been made by anybody in
authority. The fact remains, however,
that the troops have come and are still
coming, and it is quite possible that their
presence was actually needed. Certainly no
valid reason exists for making mystery
of the movement. The preservation Of
peace and the protection of a great city
from threatened mob violence constitute
sufficient justification for whatever steps
may have been taken in the matter 1t is
= time that the bad habit OF trucking to the
seditious mob was thrown aside, and that
Americans asserted their right to keep the
peace in their own country. If the troops
were needed it was right to send for them,
and if any attempt was made to create
riot in San Francisco it would be right to
call upon them promptly. That is the
truth of theeituatisn, and there is no JUS
tification for avoiding its declaration.
