Little Grover Cleveland.

Little Grover Cleveland, infant son Of Martin
and Belle Rorex. Of Brick Mill, departed
this life Sept. srd 1885, aged nineteen months
and thirteen days.
80 fades the lovely, blooming flower,
Frail smiling solsce Of an hour!
30 soon our transient comfortably
And pleasures only bloom to die.
Is there no kind, no lenient art,
To heal the anguish of the heart?
Spirit Of grace! be ever nigh,
Thy comforts are not made to die.
Thy powerful aid support the soul,
And nature owns thy kind control;
While we peruse the sacred page,
Our fiercest griefs resign their rage.
The gentle patience smiles on pain,
And dying hope revives again;
Hope wipes the tear from sorrows eye.
And faith points upward to the sky"
In the afternoon. Sept. 9TH, We assembled at
the desolste home. and besought God to have
mercy on US and make us submissive to His
holy will. And at the hour Of sunset we laid
the little body in the grave to await the second
coming of our Lord.
'Then thou the mother Of 80 sweet child
Your false imagin'd loss cease to lament,
And wisely learn to curb thy sorrows wild;
Think what present thou hast sent,
And render Him with patience what He lent."
G.S. CRAWFORD.

All and Bob Taylor.

ALT Taylor on the tariff: "My
countrymen, this is a great and SER
ious question, affecting as it does
every material interest In the
Union. I am for a tariff, tariff for
protection and a tariff that will pro-
tect."
Bob Taylor, on the tariff: "Fellow
citizens, this tariff business reminds
me of joke I heard once"-[Here
he relates the joke.
ALI Taylor, on the Blair bill: "Be-
lieving that the safety and perpetu-
ity of this Republic depend upon
the intelligence of the people, and
favoring free popular education by
the most speedy and practicable
method, I most heartily approve
of the Blair educational bill"
Bob Taylor, on the Blair bill: ~
never hear the Blair bill but what
I think of an anecdOte told to me,
ETC."
Alf-"The penitentiary lease sys-
tenn ought to be abolished. 1t is
wrong in principle, and II elected
governor I promise to do all in my
power to overthrow it."
Bob-"When the penitentiary
lease question is raised it always
wildly calls to my mind the funny
story about old Hezekiah Jones,
ETC."
Alf-"The people have the inner.
ent right to vote on all questions af.
fecting their constitution, and l am,
therefore, most unqualifledly in fav.
OF of submitting the prohibition
amendment to a vote of the people
Bob-"Now, when you strike the
liquor question, I feel a good deal
like an anecdote related of, etc."-

In Memory Of Lora Bowman.


Dear Lora thou art gone to rest,
No pain disturbs thee now.
From earth she quickly passed away,
Death touched and chilled the brow.
Hardit was to give her up,
4. But, ali! she could not stay,
For suddenly an angel came
And took the flower away.
Her kindred dear she left them here,
To weep and mourn her loss;
Great God in tenderness look down
And help them bear the cross.
1t was hard to take the farewell look,
And lay her beneath the clod;
But she will rise above the skies
And ever live with God.
Weep not father for thy child,
Though dear she was to thee,
From sickness. pain and suffering
She's forever more free.
Sisters and brothers why should you mourn,
Or sigh or sorrow more?
There's comfort in the blessed thought,
She's only gone before.
Her mother stands at Christ's right hand
In JOY they met on high.
How sweet to meet to part no more
And reign above the sky.
live could just withdraw the veil
And see how blest she be,
We'd cease to sigh and weep and NOUN
God guide US unto thee.

are but few men that have correct
idea of what it costs to publish a

why papers change hands 80 often,

never pays; and the Citizen SUBJ

$500 per week of paying expenses.
