The strange, sweet days are here again,
The happy, mournful days;
The songs which trembled ON our lips
Are half complaint, half praise.
A sadness in the softer air,
And in the tenderer sky;
A touch of heartache everywhere;
We weep, yet know not why.
The wind is full of memories;
1t whispers low and clear
In secret echoes of the past,
And brings the dead more near.
The breath of budded hyacinths
Is heavy in the breeze;
The peach tree twigs are strung with pink
And murmurous with bees.
Swing, robin on the budded sprays,
And sing your blithest tune;
Help us across these homesick days
Into the joys of June.

Hid in the heart of a water-lily
Baby is only two years old,
Tongue like piping bob O. Lincoln.
T'rills more songs than can Ger be told,
Or ever a birdie would dare to think on.

Out of my arms and off my knee
My baby? The gypsy years came kneehng,
And stole my baby away from me.

Not Happy.

one Bismarck paper asks: Who prom
ised those who subscribed to the capitol
fund that the money should be refund
ed? Another answers that the inquirer
must be tenderfoot to ask such oues-
ton and says;
Those who went around and solicited
the subscription remember it.
Every man who was invited to sub
scribe understood that the money was
to be refunded.
Every woman who gave of her hard
earnings was promised that the money
would be refunded.
Every man who gave Of his own
means expected that the money would be
refunded.
And to make the pledge good the farce
OF holding All election was gone through
with and the bonds were voted.
Men of small means who gave of mon
ey they needed in trade expected
that when the legislature met the vote
authorizing the issue of bonds would be
legalized and their means would be re-
stored to them.
But it was not, and the result is, the
old settlers, who haye contributed for
years to the prosperity Of Bismarck are
being driven out OF business, and new
settlers, who have not carried the bur-
dens of the past, gain advantage through
their distress.
1t was an outrage that it was not done.
and the fact that it was not will be re-
membered whenever subscriptions are
asked for any public enterprise for the
next ten years.

The prope sed, lut rejected d memorial
to congress. introduced by Councilman
Nlckeus, requesting the Northern Pa
cific to pay for their surveys, in order
that railroad lands might be taxable,
seems rather curious when the previous
legislature, of which the gentleman was
member, with his assent, we believe,
expressly exempted these lands from
taxation after our courts had held that
they were taxable without the surveys
having been paid for and the patents
issued.
