Pulaski Citizen: "There has been
periodic attempts in Tennessee and in
almost every other State to regulate tho
railroad rates by legislation, and the
hue and cry has been raised against
them at intervals and made fruitful
factcr in the elections. The control Of
the railroads by the State is an unsolved
problem, and il the attempt is persisted
IN il may result in a national commits

Where her pigeons lie III pairs;
Like their plumage, gray her gown,
To her SGbOts dropping down;
And a kerchIei, brightly brown,
Binds her smooth, DARK hair.
AL the buyers know her well,
And, perfOrce, her face must see,
AS a holy Raphael
Lures US IN a gallery.
Round about the rusIics cape,
Drinking in her comely shape,
And the housewives gently speak
When into her eyes they look,
As within some holy book,
And the gables, high and crook,
Fling their sunshine on her check.
In her hands two milk-white doves
Happy III her lap to lie
Softly murmuT Of their loves,
Envied by the passers-by;
One By one their flight they take,
Bought and cherished for her sake,
Leaving 80 reluctantly;
Till the shadows close approach
Fades the pag ant foot and coach,
And the giants IN the clOche
RING the noon for Plcardie.

With slender sunbeam pace

The goldfish float upon her face;

In the cafes quit their maps
