The BOldness Of 1t.

The Republicans rob and riot in cor
ruption that begins to attract attention
by its audacity and boldness. Mr.. Jay
Hubbell, the "My dear Hubbell'' of
the memorable Garfield purchase of the
Presidency by the same agencies, bold
ly and bravely goes to the country with
formal demand upon every public Of
ficer anil salaried servant, not less than
100, 900 in number, for two per cent. of
their earnings with which to buy seas
in Congress to retain the Republican
party in power. Even laborers in the
navy yards are levied upon for the first
time under the tact threat that their
money is the price of the places they
hold. There is no secret about it. The
demand is made in printed circular
signed by respectable gentlemen and
managers of the party in power and so
utterly dead and debauched is the pub
lie sense and conscience to the proceed
ing that George William Curtis is
sneered and laughed at for his pains
when he undertakes to show that these
practices, besides being morally mon
strous, are criminal offenses under the
laws which they so contemptuously
trample under foot. This is an exam
pie of the brass mounted audacity OF
the thing.
Under the rules of organized corrup-
ton which is intended to retain power
in the government of this country in
the hands of Republican Congress,
which voted away the enormous sum of
one hundred millions of dollars a few
days ago under suspension of rules
and without debate, it is estimated that
the Congressional corruption committee
will realize four hundred thousand dol
lars as Il corruption fund with which
they intend to buy up voters in all
doubtful Congressional Districts. 1t is
to this state of open and shameless deg
radiation that the party that was begot-
ten of great moral idea has brought
the government "of the people. by the
people, for the people" in this country
in which elections are so compounded
of fraud and crime and ignorance that
they have already ceased to command
the respect of anybody in the communi,
ty. 1t is only the audacity of the thing
that now surprises. Omaha Herald.

"NE'LL SEE 1T WHEN HE WAKES
BY FRANK LEE.

BY FRANK LEE.
We remember at the Wilderness q gal
liant young Mississippian had fallen, and
at night, just before burying him, there
came letter from her he loved best.
One of the group around his body-a
minister, who's tenderness was womanly
broke the silent tearfulness with which
he saw the dead letter; he took it and
laid it upon the breast OF him whose
heroic heart was still. "Bury it with
him. He will see it when he wakes" :"
1t was the sublimest sentence of his
funeral service.
Amid the clouds of battle smoke
The sun had died away,
And where the storm of battle broke
A thousand warriors lay.
A band of friends upon the field
Stood round youthful form,
Who, when the wra-cloud's thunder
peald,
Had perished in the storm
Upon his forehead, on his hair,
The coming moonlight breaks,
And each dear brother standing there
A tender farewell takes.
But ere they lay him in his home
There came Il comrade near,
And gave token that had come
From her the dead held dear.
A moments doubt upon them pressed,
Then one the letter takes
And lays it low upon his breast
Hell see it when he wakes"
On! thou who dost in sorrow wait,
Whose heart with anguish breaks,
Though thy dear message came to late,
Hell see it when he wakes"
Ne'er more amid the fiery storm
Shall his strong arm be seen;
No more his young and manly form
Tread Mississippi's green.
And cen thy tender words OF love
The words affection speaks
Came all too late; but oh! thy love
"Will see them when he wakesp
No jars disturb his gentle rest,
No noise his slumber breaks,
But THY words sleep upon his breast
"He'll sec them when he wakes"
