And slipping mint juleps by twilight;

Leads men to destruction and crime2

On the end OF my evil ways,

The vision OF bOyhOOd days

OF the SchOOl-house that stood on the hill.
OF the brook that flowed thr0' the meadow,

Again thought OF my mother.
OF the mother who taught me 10 pray,
Whose love was a precious treasure.
That heedlessly cast away.

The fresh-lipped, careless boy
To whom the future was bOundlesS,
And the past but mighty toy
thought of all this as sat here
OF nv wasted and ruined life
And the pangs OF remorse were bitter;
They pierced my heart like knife.
IL takes some courage. Billy,
To laugh in the face of fate,
When the yearning ambitions of manhood
Are blasted at twenty-eight.

Vice President Hendricks views on civil

day are always of interest and value. His
statement to the Republicans indianapolis

never cause division in the Democratic party
is timely assertion of self-evident truth
The teachings of Democracy are so clear
ON this subject that it is impossible to mis-
understand them or to misconstrue them
unless for purpose
The reform in the civil service demanded

THE VOICE OF THE RAIN.
BY kArMEErsE II. ceEESE.

Nerrily falls thS rain
List 20 the silvery chime
softly tinkling upon the window-pane,
Its sweet melodiOus rhyme
Tenderly falls the rain
Upon the dropping flowers;
And they lift their beautiful heads again
Beneath the cooling showers.
Dresmily falls the rain
And the golden days alOOf
Come trOoping back with the olden refrain,
Played by the train on the roof"
Sweetly sounded the rain.
As IL drips from Off the caves.
When il falls upon the ripening grain,
And pstters upon the leaves.
Mournfully falls the rain
Upon the graves OF our dead.
And oh as we list to the solemn strain
How sad are the tears we shed.
DTearily falls the rain
Into each life il must fall pain
Some days must be fraught with sorrOW and
But God giveth strength Tor all.
In mercy the rain droppeth down.,
Both on the just ana unjust
With glorious blessing our lives IL doth crown,
And keepeth our hearts from rust.

which will maintain this government as a
government of the people, and not of bu-
reaus set over the people. Democrats will
steadily maintain that the agency through
which reform is to be accomplished in the
future, as in the past, is the ballot in the
hands of the people, that when the judg-
ment of the people has been constitutionally
declared at the polls. it must be carried out:
that their right to change their servants at
their pleasure must not and can not be i'm
paired.
There can be no reform not based on these
principles, and the Democratic party can
never leave these principles without ceasing
to be Democratic. Mr.. Hendricks prophesies
well in saying that Democrats will not divide
on the question of reform.
