WE hev tumbled ez the dust

Wot we looked for hez bust!
We are objects of mirth;
They hev played us-old Perds Of the river!-they
hsy played us for all VIC Eas worth!
Was 1t euchre or draw

Was it faro, whose law

And we'd waited six months for that suthin'-had

And ii ken. 1t was small
1t was dream-lke and weak;

That we knew, SO to speak;
But it called itself "Bilson, Thought-Reader''-
which amt half name for its cheek
He could read yot you thought,
And he knew wot you did;
He could find things urtaught,
No matter whar hid.
And he went to it blindfold and smiling, being
led by the hand like kid.
Then glanced at Bill Nye,
And seq, without pride,
You'll excuse Us. We've nigh
Onto nothin' to hide;
But if some gent will lend us twenty, we'll hide
1t whar folks shall decide
1t was Billsons own self
Who forSed over the gold
With smile. "Thar's the pelf."
He remarked; Il make bod
To advance it. and go tgrenty better that I'll find

Then passed if to Nye,
Who repassed If to me.
And we bandaged each eye

SECRETARY LAMAR is about to be mar
ried, 80 it is reported, and to an old
sweetheart of his. Years ago when he
was young man he sought the hand of
young lady who, however, bestowed it
on some one else. The successful man
became quite wealthy, in fact was so at
the time of his. marriage. Lamar achiev
ed fame as scholar and statesman and
now turns back in the years to his first
love, her husband having died. Mrs.
Holt, the lady, is said to be lovely
woman. Some say she has declined his
hand second time, but the better opin-
ion is that he has been accepted and that
there will be quiet wedding.

That oleomargarine bill is under dis
cussion again. The suppression OF imi-
tations of butter may be beneficial to
dairymen, but it looks very much like
legislation against the public in favor
OF class, which is always wrong. En-
emies OF oleomargarine have written
page after page to create nausea in the
public's stomach by describing the in
gradients of the new product. But, not
withstanding all that has been said there
are people who persist in eating bogus
butter, in preference to the genuine ex-
tract of COW, with its uncertain percen-
tage OF hair and other nutritious sub
stances. Butter radicals forget that
calrs stomach figures in the manufacture
OF all cheese and pork is obtained
from one Of the dirtiest brutes that tread
the sod. Give oleomargarine fair treat
ment and don't idolize the COW.

The committee to investigate the
Payne election case has disgraced itself
and the body from which it was chosen.
A lamentable fact is that Messrs. Logan,
Evarts and Teller, three prominent Re-
publicans, have joined with the Demo-
Gratis in winking at one of the most au-
dacious pieces of corruption in the his
tory Of the country. The good people
OF Ohio feel the sting of defeat in trying
to bring boodlers to justice, and it is
probable that the people are bottling up
vials OF wrath that will hurt some high
standing Washingtonians when uncork-
ed. The man who has skepticism enough
to doubt that Payne and his corps of as
sistants bribed legislators by wholesale
and retail, would doubt that the sun
shines or the earth revolves. The mere
fact that the Enquirer gang denies the
existence Of fraud is sufficient to con-
vince all honorable and observing people
that corruption is plentiful. Yet with
all varieties of cold facts staring them in
the face, majority of the investigating
committee had the charming audacity
to decide that no investigation was need.
ed. General Boynton's sarcastic ques'
ton TO the committee is: "If $265, ,oOl
worth Of bribery Is not sufficient how
much bribery is required to warrant an
investigation Of election by the U. s
Genater The Governor OF Ohio and
both branches Of the Legislature have
openly declared that boQdle was used in
Fsyne's election and the press has moi
cecsed to urge that the record of the
State bo purged Of such disgraceful his
toey. Is'it true that Coaloilism holds
sway IN the Congress Of the Nationf
The News-Herald. [volume] (Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio) 1886-1973, 1886-06-30

How now? The High street organ
declares in italics that genuine and
thorough Civil Service Reform is one of
the fundamental principles of Democ-
racy. Not more than two months ago
it criticized the President in an editor
ial and said plainly that the editors of
the Gazette were opposed to Civil Ser
vice Reform! Wherefore the change ?
These statements prove conclusively
that there is very positive lack of SYM
pathy somewhere, and give force to the
ancient statement of Eylar, illustrious
editor of the Peoples Detamer, when he
said the editors OF the Gazette were not
Democrats at heart and only avowed
Democratic ideas to CLEAN Democratic
pap. The politics of Hough & Dittey
are as mysterious as the 13-l4-l5 puzzle.
But supposing that harmony exists be-
tween the Gazette and the G. o. P, why
does not the party, so devoted to Civil
Service Reform, put little more of it
into practice? Why was George H.
Pendleton, the champion of the G. s.
r., removed from his seat in the Senate
Does Grover appear as living example
of that principle when he signs as many
Postmasters' commissions every day as
he can read? Consistency is a Jewel,
but Democratic diadems are decidedly
scarce.
