FOR THE ENTERPRISE.


Just across the Charlemont
Where the hills are greenest,
Where the waves Of pasture swell
Fairest and serenest,
Ere they stretch away in plains
For the orchards sitting,
Pictured groves and fields OF grain,
Homesteads most behtting,
would pause and listen well
What is whispered to me,
For the air is heavy with
Secrets that would WOO me.
Have you never, with a start,
When the turf was shaded,
Crossed a lost trail where a chief
With his braves paradedG
Have you never heard the sigh
OF a duslSy lover
Waiting for the tardy moon
BY the woodbine cover?
Have you never seen and heard
All the air a-quiver
With the secrets Of the past
By the haunted riveri
When the summer days are long,
And the daylight fingers
Till the shades impatient reach
With their tawny fngures,
Clutching at the tender banks
With their fretted edges
And their graves where sleep the braves
Near the ferns and sedges,
would pause and listen well
What is whispered to me,
For the air is heavy with
Secrets that would WOO me.
Here beside the Charlemont
When the ewes of summer
Stretch their mists along the vale
Every swarthy conner
Takes his place upon the banks
That are his forever
From the father to the son
By the haunted river.
Lights a-giimmer, forms a-hit,
Hunted hare in hiding,
Mystic shadows on the stream
Softly, swiftly gliding;
Have you never seen and heard
All the air a-quiver
With the secrets OF the past
By the haunted river?

On our first page will be found an ar
ticle from the New Lisbon Buckeye
State, proving by creditable affidavits,
that Major Mckinley did promise two
years ago not to be a candidate this
year for Congress, provided Judge Lau-
bic would not then be in his way.
1t is not our fight at all; but as the Re-
positOry fails to deal fairly with its Re-
publican friends who antagOnize the
Major we think it due to fair dealing to
let our Democratic and Republican read
ers see how the war progresses.
Should Judge Laubie be the Republi-
can nominee he will have to resign his
position on the bench. 1t is said that
there are several dark horses and one of
them might be the lucky man. In Bit
ter dual fight there is no telling.

If things were called by their right
names, people would not be so often de-
ceiVed. Many accept and use nOstrums,
which they would not were these given
proper and expressive terms. A Vender
of a medicine called at house the other
day, and was expatiating on the merits
of his stuff to the women of the mansion,
when the gentleman entered and listen
ed. The latter asked the ingredients of
the compound, when the vender named
couple of innOcuOus substances. The
gentleman said you have not named the
active principle of your preparation.
"Well," said the Vender, "yO0 would not
expect me to tell everything in it," "No,
was the reply, 81 knew you would not; !;
you were ready to name the harmless
parts. but the deadly poison ingredient
you will not tell"
So is it in politics, to say nothing of
other subjects. Persons who advocate
measures by which they amass wealth
at the expense of the rest of the people,
must give their measures good names,
or they could not delude and gull the
people. The advocates of a protective
tariff claim it is grand thing for the
country. 1t would not do to say it was
scheme to tax the mass of the people
in order to put millions into the pockets
of the favored few. To say it was un-
equal and unjust taxation would not do
at all. This plain common sense truth
would spoil the dish wholly and entirely.
In fact, common sense and plain truth
would be fatal to all these selfish
schemes and robbery of the people.
The Democratic doctrine is equal JUS
tice, equal rights, and equal taxation.
The Republican party is the party of in
justice, of special privileges, of schemes
to rob the people to enrich the favored
faw

If anything were needed to realize
the general extravaganza ruling in
Congress, one need only look at Con-
gressman TaylOr's report from the COM
mittee on the expenses of Garfield's ill
ness and funeral, giving Bliss $25,O 900,
Agnew and Hamilton $15,O 900 each, Rey-
burn, Boynton and Edison $4,000 each,
Jennings $1,000; c. A. Benedict, Of
New York, the undertaken who en-
balmed the body, $4,000. Blackburn
submitted a minority report on the
same bill and both reports were ordered
printed. That's the way Uncle Sans
pockets are depleted when occasion
offers. Think of $4,000 for embalming
the body of Garfield as an undertaken
$4,000 to Mrs. Edison for attendance at
President Garfield's bedside, and $75,-
900 to five doctors for doing Garfield
more harm than good with their prob
ings and cuttings.
