BOOM-LAND.

Due east of the sun and due west of the moon,
in a region of lights and gloOms.
In place fur of sound and of silence lies the
faint. far Land of Booms,
Where is stalled tine great stud OF dark horses
which Ambition heedfully groomS
There talk-geysers spout on forever. and the
word-Dump never tires:
There himself in the glass or the future the
statesman himself coTly adlres.
While Mount Evarts threatens the plains OF
speech with sluggish volcanic fires
All day and all night are heard there the max
ing and breaking of states.
And the buZZing of bees IN the bonnetS of
professional candidates.
And the neigh of dark horses waiting in the
stalls of the mighty Fates.
There wise men feed on the husks of hope
and drink of the Juice of corn.
And are lulled with lies that reach their souls
through the cheating gate of horn,
Till theT feel that the nominations theirs as
sure as they are born.
Like the lightnings of midnight the eyes there
of Black Jack fitfully CLEAN:
There, awful and VIII te and majestic, by the
verge of the dire talk-stream,
The top of Edmunis hill shines out like a
snow-peak seen i'll u dream.
There Allison, Sherman and Frisbie Hoar pin
their ears 10 the cold. cold ground,
And wait for the sound of the people calling,
but no man hears that sound,
For i'll wild reverberance "HOoray for
Blaine" rings ever Hereby around.
Oh, pity, pity for them who wait for vision
that never looms:
Oh. pity. pity for them who dwell in the faint,
far Land of BOOmS
For the great Salt river skirts it, and its
marge is white with tombs!
