Softly and quietly comes the dawn.
When the sable curtain of \ light is drawn.
Aud the Day is slowly, surely born.
The night bird shrieks her last good
Bye
And the answering cock doth slrilly cry.
For the day time swiftly draweth nigh.
The sleeping world now yawns and
wakes.
And drowsily its shoulders shakes,
And the coming day its burden tai e.-
Low in the east, .Olden sheen
Along the horizon is seen,
And the mighty Day-God leaves his
queen.
And now the hour of toll and mirth
Proclaims Il e safe and joyous birth
OF light, aud day, throughout the earth

For he knew nOught of real, true love
No one to hin. was dear.

Until my love" was gone
And all the earth seemed dark to me
Until she should return.
Some fleetiny feeling there may be

Cali itn0t love. for truth to tell,
Ills only base alloy.
Absence, | deem the test OF love
And ii the metal ) lure,
When our owed ones leave us
We only love them more.
No. sooner Will the true heart break
Than change, or its ,ye yield,
To any power that absence may

Absence tiShtenS. and makes them felt
These chains, Gods forged OF love.
Which death Itself can never melt;

Malone nud the senate.

GIVING HIN THE COLD SHOULDER ALL
ARouYD--A PLAN TO MAKE HIN AND RID
DIEBERGER PARTY UNTO THEMSELVES.
A Washington special TO the New York
World SAYS Mahone's power in the SEN
ate Is fast slipping away, and the indica-
tions now are That he and Riddleberger. in
stead of debating TO the Republicans at the
spring executive session OF the Senate, will
be thrust into the background. NIahone's
mind has not been easy since the Presi-
dents snubbing, which Malone invited
bv medding with the contemplated APP
polntment OF Mosby to q district
judgeship in Virginia. Before that
Washington was hardly large enough for
Mahone's airs. He was golngto do one thing
and another TO emphasize his mastery OF
the Administration and the Senate, his pur-
pose with the Senate being to force the
nomination Of Gorham by the Republican
caucus for the secretarysbip OF that body.
Gorham's relations with Malone, the advo-
cacy OF Readiusterism in the Republican
while Gorham was in control, and the
Senate deadlock two years ago brought
about by Malone holding the lash over the
Republican caucus are all well remem-
bercd. Gorham still proclaims himself the
caucus nominee, and Malone until very
lately was threatening to reverse the ma
jority in the Senate by casting his vote and
Riddleberger's with the Democrats at the
spring Reorganization unless the Republic
cans should stand by Gorham. Republic
can complaint at this autocracy has been Of
long standing. Gorham il scarcely in more
favor with the Republicans than with the
Democrats. No one has fault to End with
the present Senate organization except
upon partisan grounds. Quite number
OF Republicans, among them Edmunds,
hold Malone in contempt, and would will
lingly ignore him and vote to maintain the
present organization, leaving the commit
tees under Republican control and the
Senqte offices with the Democrats. Partisan
considerations and the fact OF Malone hay-
ing a vote which might determine an issue
upon strict party division have, until within
q few days, prevented satisfactory under
standing. But one has at last been reached,
it il said, upon good authority, by which
Malone and Riddleberger uron the re0r-
ganization question will vote in the air.
The Democrats do not want their votes.
The Republicans. while not caring special
" FOR them, might be embarrassed by their
opposition. So Mr.. Beck and Mr.. Bayard
are said to have agreed upon questions OF
reorganization to vote with the Republicans
whenever Malone and Riddlebereer may
vote with the Democrats, thus otlsetting
the detection. Mr.. Beck and Mr.. Bay
ard have been selected for this purpose be-
cause OF the special emphasis such promi-
nent votes would give to the Democratic
purpose not to accept the assistance Of re-
pudiators upon party questions. The pro-
bable result vii! be maintenance OF the pre-
sent Senate organization, both in commit
tees and offices, and the election Of Mr..
Anthony (Repubican) az President pro
tempOre. Gorham will thus be left without
employment, unless he should manage to
renew his engagement with the Republic
cans, which will expire in March.

The Tariff Question,

In speech delivered at Cleveland, on
the Sth OF January, at banquet given in
honor Of ANDREW JACKSON and the victory
O! the Sth OF January, 1915, a: New Or
leans, Hon. II. B. PAYNE presided at the
banquet, and said in q speech referring to
national politics:
ain my Judgment the peril which more
than all others menaceS the harmony and
success Of the Democratic party is the wide
difference and bitter conflicts Of opinion on
tari1 policy. Difference OF opinion exists,
and the right to differ must be recognized
and conceded. General jackson, in the
United States Senate, voted for the tariff OF
1921, and subsequently,, as President. de-
ciared himself in favor Of judicious tariff.
What, then, Is n just OF iudicious tariff.
Most certainly not high protective or ta-
riff for protection only; for such generates
and agsrandizes monopolies, Nor, on the
other hand, is ii free trade or tariff for
revenue only. Free trade. strictly in
terpreted, requires uniform cd UQiOrem
duty on all imports; and the trans
ferring an item TO the free list or the i'm.
posing OF a specific duty mars and defeats
the working OF the theory. Free trade has
never been accepted by Government or
civilized nation, and Is impracticable and
impossible. These words, for revenue
only unwisely inserted in the platform OF
1880, lost the Democracy the presidency
and all which that loss implied, and like
fatality will assurediy follow Il repetition OF
the folly in any future campaign. FIRE.
quently we hear Democratic speaker
timidly. in subdued voice, and as though
fearing to compromise himself, advocate a
tarifffor revenue with Incidental Profession.
Why such indirection apd cowardicei In
view Of the ineXhaustible and unreasonable
resources OF our country In coal, iron, cop
per, wool, and corn, ABUNDANT under the fos-
tering care OF our Govcrnmenttosu supply tue
wants OF not only the present population OF
hfty millions, or one hundred million,
which many Of you will live to witness,
but five hundred or thousand million
which probable future national census
will enumcrate. and OF the populations OF
Mexico and Central America and the
southern republics. whose markets ought
long since to have been opened for our
manufactures, IL is difficult to under
stand why our statesmen should thus
hesitate ands yacillate in the discharge
OF their duty. a iudicious tariff
is not for protection only, nor for revenue
only, nor, again, for revenue with the
shadowy outlines of an incidental tail APP
pended q II, but II l. tariff for botk reye-
nue. aud protection, one and inseparable,
NO. .syfisted and perfected rs to do justice
20 all the great interests OF the country,
and injustice 10 none. In the bill reported
by the commission the protectionisis have
made unexpected, liberal, and generous
concessions. II those inclined 10 free
trade will only meet these advances In a
like spirit OF fairness compromise is
practicable which will give satisfaction to
all classes, and withdraw this distr acting
question from the domain Of poIItics.n

Governor Il. +. BUTLER has discontinued
The. copy oil the Boston Post hitherto sent
TO the S'ate.liouse in Boston. The reason
may I've found in the paragraph wo yester-
day copied from that staunch old Demo-
cratic paper stating that BUTLER Is not such
Democrat as will probably be nominated
Tor President OF the United States. Gov
ernor BUTLER might as well learn first as
last that neither party will eyer nominate
nlm Tor that office. We all enjoy the dis
comnture OF his Republican enemies; but
that fact does not mean that he is suitable
man TO be made the head OF the greatest
country In the world.
