A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
NOTE THE BRIGHT HOURS 0NL r


= lesson In itself sublime,
A lesson worth enshrining,
Il this: II take no heed OF time.
Save when the sun is shinin9.'
These motto words dial bore.
And wisdom never breaches
To human hearts a better lore
Than this short sentence teaches
As life Ii sometimes bright and fair
And sometimes dark and lonely,
Let us forget the toll and care,
Aud mote bright hours only"
There Is no grave on earth's broad chart
But has some bird to cheer IT.;
So hope sings on IN every breast,
Although we may not hear H.;
And II to-day the heavy wing
Of sorrow IL depressing,
perchance fo-morruw's sun may bring
The weary heart blessing.
We bid the joyous moments haste,
And then forget their glitter.
We take the cup OF life, aud taste
No portion but the bitter
But we should teach our hearts to deem
Its sweetest drops the strongest.
And pleasant hours should ever seem
To linger with us longest.
The darkest shadows of the night
Are Just before the mornings.
Then let us wait the coming light,
An boding phantoms scorning.
And while we're passint m the tide
or Times fast cbbing \ -cr,
Let's pluck the blossoms ~ its side
And bless the gracious Giscr.

Missouri river to Ogden and other
adjacent points of Importance in this
Territory, which has been in exist
ence between the Union Pacific and
Denver & Rio Grsnde roads for
several weeks past, has been intensi.
fed by differences over the Colorado
poo. In conse quence of these differ
ences. the Union Pacific yesterday
declared 10 cent through rate on
all classes OF goods unreservedly. We
understand the Denver & Rio Grsnde
COM Dany has met this last cut by a
simil IT one, and that the Central Pa
citic management also Clipped ID to
the tune to reducing their rates from
here to San Francisco to cents per
100 pounds.
There are fears in Western railroad
circles that the Colorado pool will be
broken, as at present the Union Pa
cific and Denver & Rio Grande com-
panies, two parties to il, seem irrec-
oncilaele, and in the event of the pool
being oursted . general freight war
