An Exploded Boom.

A long, lanz, lean and chronic Anti-Potash
Boom met the new, fat and saucy Atlanta
Big Bold Boom, on hot, sultry day.
sWho are your" asked the B. B. b. Boom.
81 am the old Anti Potash Boom" was the
sad reply, as the perspiration rolled down,
and it leaned heavily on the B. b. B. Boom
for support.
Don't lean on me-" said the B. B. B. Boom.
Il may look strong, but am quite young
only Il months old, am growing rapidly, and
am mighty weak in the knees. am doing
the work which you have failed to do, although
you are so years old. You are old, and tough,
and rich. and don't require support. But
what causes you to look so thin Of later"
''Wen. hardly know" replied the A nti-
Potash Boom. MY physician tells me that
nv abilities have been Over-rated. and that
while trying to whip out all opposition by
boast and brag, that l have proven my in
ability. Old age is also creeping on me-having
fought near so years before any one knew /
was living-and now ] am unable to perform
feats that others are doing. / am collapsed;
my friends have turned against me and call
me names, and oh, Lordy, how sick become
at the very sight of u. b. b. Hold my head
while die"

1he Intelligent sentiment.
Chicago Times linda.

The intelligent sentiment OF TINS country
will not sustain an effort to regulate the mere
social relations of tine races. If Congress or
any other power eau enact that the whites
and blacks must travel in company on the
same care. it can with just as much propriety
provide thar the two classes shall drink their
coffee rom the same cup or eat their oysters
with the same fork. The negroes and their
white friends viii do well not to attempt TO
force whites into repellant relations with the
negroes, Tor the effect Will only be to put OF
the day of amcable relations, and, possibly,
to render its coming an lmpOsSlbllty.

The men who, in open defiance Of part dis

Morrison bill, are actively at work striving
again to prevent any real reform in the tariff.
At Chicago they sought to force on the party
the Ohio platform, and were beaten. Next
thew sought to strike out the words ''eX-
clusively for the purposes of government
economically administered" and were again
defeated. Stu they refuse acquiescence. and
are laborins to DIVIDE the party on every

Congressman just now about the treaty
making power" The Importance of fulfill
fHg the obligations of treaties would be a
much more profitable subject for their con-

with us, except some petty State that could
not help itself, add we should not get great
deal of profit ont of that.

OuarreIino Republicans.

\ very pretty quarrel Is brewing among
the Republican leaders. President Ar
thurs friends are trying to have him
elected Senator from New York, to sue
coed Senator Lapham, and Mr.. Blaine's
friends, it is alleged, are doing all they
can to defeat the Presidents ambition.
1t is the old fight between the half-breeds
and the stalwarts revived. The Blaine
faction say that the President and his
Cabinet did not exert themselves 20 Sc
cure the election Of Mr.. Blaine, and that,
therefore, Mr.. Blalne's friends ought not
to help elect the President Senator. Mr..
Jones, the Chairman Of the Republican
National Committee, made some pretty
bold statements about the Indifference
displayed by the President and his Cabi-
net during the late campaign. Secretary
Chandler retorted and hit Chairman Jones
some hard blows. He intimated that if
there was desire for a faction fight in
the party it could be had without much
trouble. He told Mr.. Jones that as he led
the party to defeat in the Presidential
contest it would be more becoming in him
to keep quiet. OF course there is more or
less elimination and recrimination.
Blaine's managers are now told that if

shoulders and legs of man before you sass
him, Out here on West Hill there is a
goat that for three long years has butted
everything and everybody the broad EN-
pire of Burlington could send against him,
He ate the circus posters before the paste
was dry, and when the advance agent re-
monstrated the goat just stood up and
crowded the rash man clear through the
bill stand. He once upset hay wagon,
jammed his head clear through the end of
a wood-shed, and Aattened an officer up
against brick house. And one day he
wandered down into saw mill and butted
the fy-wheel. Only once. When he came
down his neck was bent He couldn't
make dent in a sack of meal now. Young
man, be content with reasonable victories

THE SKEIN WE WIND.

If you and 1, to-day,
ShouldStop and lay
Our life work down, and let our hands fall where
they will
Fall down to lie quite still
And if some other hand should come and stoop to
The threads we carried so that it could wind,
Beginning where we stopped; if it should come to
keep
Our life work going, seek
To carry ON the good design
Distinctly made in yours or mine,
What would it find?
Some work must be doing, true or false;
Some threads we wind; some purpose exalts
Itself that we look up to it, or down,
AS to q crown
To bow before, and we weave threads
OF different lengths and thicknesses-some more
shreds-
And wind them round
Till all the sken of life is bound,
Sometimes forgetting at the task
To ask
The value of the threads, or choose
Strong stuff to use.
No hand but winds some thread;
1t cannot stand quite still, till it is dead, =.
But what it spins and winds little sken.
God made each hand for work-not toll stain
Is required, but every hand
To spin, though only ropes of sand,
If love should come,
STOPPING above when we are done,
To find bright threads
That we have held, that it may spin then longer
find but threds,
That break when touched how cold,
Sad shivering, portionless, the hands will hold
The broken strands, and know
Fresh cause for woe.

NOTICE.

~
70 the Citizens using Water from the Mains
of the Westminster Water Company.
The rules of the Company regulating the
aee of water are part of the contract with
every person who takes water. Some OF our
patrons have abused the privileges named
therein by wasting water and using 1t for pmr-
poses unauthorized by their licenses. The
license for pave wash simply does not IN
clude irrigation, washing of vehicles or gen
eral house consumption, as some seem willing
10 think. 1t simply accords the right to
sprinkle, not waste, in front of your own
premises, not your neighbors; the right to
wash your front windows and pavement, as
necessity may require. Notice is hereby
gwen that the right to use water will be with
drawn by shutting water from all persons who
abuse their privileges. Read your license
The water will be shut off in all cases where
persons refuse or neglect to obtain license
within six days after the previous license eX-
pres, and it will not be restored except on
payment Of the expense of shutting it Off and
putting it on. By order,
