TIE TRAVELLER AT SUNSET

The shadows grow and deepen round me,
feel the dew fall in the air;
The muezziA Of the darkening thiokot
hear tho night thrush call to prayer.
The evening wind Is sad with farewells,
And loving hands unclasp from mine;
Alone go to meet the darkness
Across an awful boundary line.
Az from the lighted heorths behind me-
pass with slow, reluctant feet,
Whatwa me In the land OF strahgenessr
What face shall smile, what voice shall
EreetY
What space shall awe, what brightness blind
What thunder roll Of music stunP
What vast professions sweep before me
OF shapes unknown beneath the SUM-
shrink from unaccustQmed glory,
dread tho MYRIAD voiced strain;
Give me the unforgOtten faces,
And let my lost ones speak again.
He will not chide my mortal yearning
Who is our Brother and our Frien1,
In whose full life, divine and human,
The heavenly and the earthly blond.
Mine DO the Joy Of soul communion,
The sense Of spiritual strength renewed,
The reverence for the pure and holy,
The dear delight Of doing good.
No fitting ear Ia mine TO listen
An endless anthems rise and tall
No curious eye is mine to- measure
The pearl gate and the jasper wall.
For love must needs be more than knoul.

pense of the poor refuse to return the
land TO its righiful owners.
By class legislation they have Grip
pled the commerce OF the nation,
driven our merchant marine from the
seas and closed the markets of the
world against us, and while nature
may reward the toll of the farmer
with a bountiful yield of all the
products Of the field and farm, having
no market for the returns of his in
dustry, he fnds the read to prosperity
and advancement closed a. aiust him.
When the Republicans took charge
Of the affairs of the government, our
gallant little navy was the pride of
our people, ard the public money with
unstnted hand WIS used to maintain
and improve it. With reckless waste,
ard frauds too gross for language to
fifty describe, in the short space of
few years they spent $400, 600, an
amount more than sufficient to have
built the finest navy in the world, but
instead OF this, they left a navy so
poor in all its equipments as to be a
disgrace to the nation and bring us in
coniemps with all other nations Of the
earth.
After twenty-iour years OF this reck-
less rule the banner OF Republicsnism
went down in defeat and Democracy
again resumed the ieins of power, and
already the results Of honesty
and the faithful discharge OF public
duty are seen and felt op every hand.
The appointees 10 public place are SER
wants OF the people and not as here
tofore the tools OF schemers and
rings.
Strict economy, followed by the saw
ing, as shown by TIE rscJrds, in a few
short months OF many millions of
money to the people, is the rule in
every departing mt of the nation.
Confidence in the honesty and in.
tegrity of free government is being re-
stored, and when the class legislation
enacted by the Republican party in
the interest Of the favored few shall
have been repealed 50 that all men
may have in the race of life equal
charces before the law, an age Of pros-
perity to the whole pc ople will be ush-
cred in grea or than ever before
