Tiny's Verse.

Wearied with play, Leila and Tiny
drew their garden-chairs close together
and sat down under the chestnut tree
which grew beside their home. Their
laps were full of flowers, which they had
Just gathered to make into nosegay for
their mother Birds were singing in the
branches overhead, and a little robin,
which they had fed every day till quite
tame, hoped round them with a con
sequential air, and sometimes perched on
their shoulders.
Both children had been quite silent for
a few minutes, when Tiny suddenly raised
her blue eyes and said:
a. am SO happy. [ do love the flow
ers, and brides, and you, and everybody
so much
Then she added in a wb gper:
e And love God, who made us all so
happy. Sister, wish I could give him
something"
Mother says if we love him that is
what he likes best of all, replied Leila.
eyes, but do want to do something
for him-something that would give me
trouble. Can't you think of anything ?"
Leila thought little and said:
Perhaps you could print text for
the flowers mother sends every week to
the sick people in the hospitals. They
are so glad to have the flowers, and then
the texts make them think about our
Father in heaven"
oh, should like that I will write,
Suffer little children to come unto me
and forbid them not. >"
But Tiny was only six years old, and
it was very difficult for her to hold
pen, so she only did two letters every
day until it was fnishsd. Then she went
alone to her room and :knelt down.
" Please, God, said she, I did this text
for you. Please take it from Tiny for
Jesus Christs sake" And God heard
the prayer, for he always listens when
little children truly pray.
So Tiny's text was sent up to London,
and lady put very pretty flower into
the card and took it to hospital. She
stopped beside bed where a little boy
was laying. His face was almost as white
as the pillow on which he lay, and his
dark eyes were filled with tears.
" Is the pain very bad to-day, Willie p
Yes, miss, it's dreadful. But it's not
so much the pain as I mind I'm used to
that yer know Father beat me every
day almost when he was drunk. But
the doctor says I'm too i'll form to ave
any hopes for me, and IN mighty afeared
to die"
"If you had friend who loved you
very much, and you were well, should
you be afraid to 60 and stay with him
Willie2'
Why no, I'd like to go, in course"
have brought you message from q
Friend who has loved you all your life
long. He wants you to trust him, and
to 90 and live with him. He will love
you always and you will always be hap
Py."
Then the lady read Tiny's text, 5uf-
fer little children to come unto me-" She
told him how Jesus had died, and then
rose again and went to heaven to prepare
place for him, and many other chill
dren. She told him how Jesus is still
saying, Come, and his hand is still held
out to bless.
So Willie turned to the Good Shep-
herd, and was no longer afraid.
A few days afterwards he whispered,

Loring promises to close the saloons on
Sunday, to put an everlasting end to
gambling, and TO drive from the city
all the inmates of houses of prostitution,
That is precisely the pledge exacied from and
cheerfully made by John De Laittre and by
Rand at his first campaign. But what did
their pledges amount to? We're the saloons
closed on Sunday? We're the gamb-
ling houses closed? No. 1t is
absolutely nothing but the pledge of
political perjurers, so to speak, and has

Labor OF a Liquor League.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, April IA very large
and demonstrative meeting was held tonight
in the city armory in response to a call by the
Liquor Dealers Protective league for liberal
minded citizens to. assemble. Resolutions
we're passed, the preamble of which sets forth
that the Pond liquor law levies unequal tax
alton, permits criminal prosecution wi thout
intervention Of the grand jury, enforces viola,
tion of contracts and tends to mono police
traffic; therefore resolved
First-We condemn and reprove the major
ity of our Republican legislature for enacting
the Pond bill into pretended law.
Second-We want no bribed informers, no
percentage paid to professors aud jud ges
among us.
Third-We call upon all voters in Mondays
election to most emphatically announce at the
polls their disapproval of the Republican
party, which by this enactment has under
taken to usurp power, to perpetrate shameful
injustice, and to violate our dearest and most
sacred principles of PERSONAL freedom and
property rights.
Speeches were made in English by L. A.
Russell, A. Sherman, Hon. M. A. Toran Hon.
J. P. Green, Councilman G. G. Shellentrage
and others, and In German by eY Gov. Jacob

of values for the convenience OF traffic
which is called capital and which under
certain circumstances performs the dou-
BILE function of filling the Office of both
representative and standard of the pro-
duct of labor
Capital being, as we have seen, the
representative of the product of labor,
that anamolous condition of business
and society that would make
possible conflict between the two,
must necessarily result from avaricc or
bad government, or both combined The
intelligence of every community has a
duty to perform in raising above the din
and turmoil of selfish strife the standard
of reason and the authority
of the law. Whenever capital or
labor rules automatically untempered
bymoderation and mercy, reason must
retire and give place to that stern arbiter
flushed with sinful authority to-day and
restrained by reason to- morrow. To say
that labor and capital are adequately
protected and share the burthens of the
community with which they are iden-
titled, is to pay the higest
compliment possible to local govern
ment. No investment of capital can
adequately compensate community for
losses sustained through democrat
lied labor, due to injustice and
oppression. On the other hand, no
government could long survive that
condition of society which would
substitute arbitrary power for law in
the adjudication of the rights of prop
erty. The oppression of either capital
or labor is due to the same initial cause
inefficient government, and the results
are seen in the disorder, confusion and
loss of public confidence which fol.
lows. The right of either to com
bine for self protection is part
of the law of self-defense; but this act
must not involve or interfere directly
with the rights of second parties.
| Where the laws are inadequate to reach
oppression in any form, resort should be
made to public sentiment, and no com.
munity can be true to its own interests
and turn deaf ear to an appeal for the
protection of the property or persona
| rights of any class of its citizens.

corner, who skipped as soon as they saw
Mr.. Busch. The explosion was very loud

supposed that the burglars got out doors to
be in readiness to go in case anybody came,
and if not to go back and go for the money

through the safe door and exploded it. The

1t was near the hour of midnight, when or
dinarily all nature was hushed in sweet re.
pose. The Democratic convention had nomi-
mated DR.. Ames for mayor amidst laundering
applause and echoing cheers. The Republi.
cans had shouted for Loring at their mass
meeting, and gone home to the bosoms OF
their respective families. But through back
alleys, where anybody could be found,

reporter suspicious gang which he had
every reason to believe represented the So
called law and order political party, and he
knew that something terrible was liable to
happen. Now the GLOBE reporter is ever
alert for anything terrible which may happen,
and he steaithily took the trail. The suspic.
ious gang moved cautiously along, glancing
back now and again to see if their movements
were detected, and the reporter lodged behind
handy dry goods box or other obstacle which
might present itself. On they stole, until,
heavens! they came out upon the public street,

The Claims of the PemJina Indians Cor.
rect.
To the Editor of the Globe.
l noticed in recent issue of the Piomee,
Press an editorial in which the validity of thu
claims of the Pembina Indians to a certain
tract of land situated in Northern Dakota, ii
questioned, and having interviewed some Of
the members of the band / found them unan
imous in their assertions that they had cedee
only the land designated in the I'd article Of
the treaty, which is as follows:
"The said Red Lake and Pembina bands oil
Chippewa Indians to hereby cede, sell and con
vey to the United States all their rights, title
and interest, in and to all the lands now
owned and claimed by them IN the State Of
Minnesota and in the Territory of Dakota,
within the following described boundaries to
Wit Beginning at point where the inter
national boundary line intersects the shore Of
the Lake of the Woods; thence in direct
line enthusiastically to the head of the Thiei
river; thence down the main channel of sale
Thief river to its mouth on the Red Lake
river; thence in southeasterly direction, in 9
direct line towards the head Of Wild Rice
river to the point where such line would in.
tersect the northwestern boundary of tract
ceded the United by treaty concluded al
Washington on the 22d day of February, 1866
with the Mississippi, Pillager and Lake Win
nebegoshish bands of Chippewa Indians
thence along the said boundary line of the said
cession to the mouth of the Wild Rice river
thence up the main channel of the Red river
to the mouth of the Shayene; thence up the
main channel of The Shayene river to Poplar
Grove; thence in direct line to the head oil
main branch of Salt river; thence in direct
line due north to point where such line
would intersect the International. boundary
aforesaid; thence easterly along said line to
the place Of beginning"
The fact that q limit is prescribed to the
cession OF land by the treaty should destroy
the remotest possibility of question.
The rule which the government has always
observed, whenever the Chippewas have
coded any part or parcel Of their land, was to
claim only that portion described in the
treaty, and it is not probable that it will de.
yiate from an established precedent, but will
recognize the claims of the Pembinas, which
are IS valid, Notwithstanding the assertions
of the Pioneer Press to the contrary, as the
Mississippis are to the White Earth reserve
The rights of the Pembinas amongst the In.
dians, the Sioux included, to the Turtle
mountain country have long been admitted.
In conclusion will say that the Pioneer
Press in its bitter denunciations of the 'shalf.
breeds evidently forgets that the interests OF
these people are the same as those of the In.
dams, and whenever they contest an injustice
to the Indians they are protecting their own
as well as the Indians rights. xx*
