RELEASED.

Dead, and the sun still shines;
Just dead, and the soft wind allowing;
Deadi while the blue lake dimples and
smiles
And the overs sing at their rowing.
The world goes on the same,
Scarce a leaf on the elm tree ~iutters;
While the bloomy breath Of the summer
woods
Sits in through the half open shutters.
And this is to be dead tH.AI-
For 1 heard them say that / was dying;
As yet i scarcely know which Is
This self, or the other there lying.
/ feel so light and free,
] long through the blue to be flying;
How strange that l should ever have
feared
This wonderful change they call dying.
IT'S nothing to be dead
But just to keep on with the living,
Without the heart breaking care and pain
That the body is always giving.
IT'S wondrous to be dead
And 10 be evermorc past dying;
On wings Of eternal youth upborne
The stars In their courses outvying.
They hsve called death the end
When 1t II but just the beginning,
How trining a price this life to pay
For an immortality's winning.

CONCERNING the not very ~pcrceptible
resemblance between the English and
Mexican cases of alleged libel, the Phila-
delphia Times says
1t is hard to see the parallelism that
some writers assume between the Cutting
case and the Field Bennett libel suit in
England. The latter was a civil proceed
ing for damages for a libel circulated in
London, both parties being Americans
sojourning abroad. Whatever technical
points were raised in this case there was
no question of extra jurisdiction and no
question Of personal liberty involved.
That is a very different thing from i'm
prisoning a man on a criminal prosecu
ton for al offense committed in another
country.

ANOTHER dispute has arisen between
Russia end England as to the frontier
line claimed by the former in Central
Asia. The Russian advanced posts are
almost within a days march of the Afghan
line and are supported by a continually
extending line of railroad being construct
ed nearly parallel to, and within easy sup
porting distance Of the military advance.
1t is scarcely probable that the next clash
of interests between the two powers can
be arranged without recourse to the ar
bitrament of war.

AS H civilization of the northern
hemisphere has almost wearied OF fruit
less effort to overcome seas Of ice in
search Of the north pole, the hunger for
such conquest Of natural obstacles has in
spired the Australian colonies with an
ambition to determine the exact position
of their terminus OF the earth's axis. As
the south pole has long been theoretically
recognized as surrounded by the ice-clad
lands of an Antarctic continent, the pro-
blem is all the more difficult to solve, and
tot ally useless when solved. This transfer
of research will not be objected to, except
on general humanitarian grounds.

A BARRIER 10 PRoCREss.

One Of the most difficult tasks for the
interior department to solve is that of re-
stricting the Indian tribes under its care
to an area of occupation which shall be
sufficient for all their legitimate needs and
yet shall interfere with the immigra-
ton to and settlement of the vacant lands
in the territories as little as possible.
Wyoming has practically less immediate
interest in this question than any of its
neighbor territories, but it cannot be de-
MED that DON or later the only reserva-
ton within its boundaries must become
the subject OF rightful protest, on account
of the fact that it includes so large an ex-
cess of lands over any possible need for
the sustenance Of the tribes to which it is
assigned. With regard to Montana the
case is different, though only in degree,
and there is no reason to doubt that, if
the representations of the people of that
territory were earnestly supported by a
protest from all others similarly situated,
though in less degree, the next congress
would assign lands in severalty to the In
dams, under restrictions sufficient to afford
them all needed protection, and at the
same time throw open the choice agricul-
tural and mineral lands of all the reserva-
tons to the occupation Of actual settlers.
The Wind River reservation in Wyoming
differs in no respect, except as to area,
from the Montana reservations concerning
which the St. Paul Pioneer Press speaks
as follows:
The general public has little concep-
tlon Of the extent and quality of the lands
from which the white settler is now COM
pletely shut u by the possession of a
few scattered bands of Indians. They
comprise the whole northern e,tion Of
Montana, including nearly all the arabic
land in the territory, save the valleys OF
the southern water courses. A vast do
main some $50 miles in length by an
average of 20 miles in breadth, an area Of
5000 square miles, or more than that of
the state Of Indiana, is now assigned TO
the occupancy of about 5000 Indians.
And this discrepancy tells but part of
the story. For this land is the most desir-
able Of all that is now left Incorporated
upon the continent. Northern Montana
is a continuation of the fertile prairies of
North Dakota, with a soil of unsur-
passed richness and a climate that is
tempered TO mildness as the Rocky noun
tains are approached. 1t is the southern
skirt of the great interior plain of the
Northwest, richly endowed by nature W tn
all that nswer the wants of man. From
the fertile valley of the Milk river, there
stretches away to the westward this great
garden land, waiting for the coming peo-
pie. Not only is it admirably fitted for
agriculture, but it is abundantly supplied
with coal and iron and wealth of useful
minerals Where its Western border
touches the Missouri are great falls which
furnish a water power five times that Of
Minneapolis. 1t is quite impossible to
sketch even in fancy the results which n
few years of free development would
work on such material as this.

The Salt Lake TriJude, heretofore rec
ognized as the able advocate of a worthy
cause, s~ignally displays its marked parti-
san bias by discovering a mares nest
conspiracy on the part of Democrats for
the admission Of Utah as a Mormon state.
Apart from the sensational nature of
such a charge. it is gross unfairness to ex-
pect the Democracy after seventeen
months Of executive administration, with
a divided Legislature. to accomplish more
than the great morality party-committed
from its inception against the twin
relic and all its mountaineering done
in a quarter Of a century Of almost I'M
broken control Of every department of
government Mormonism with its pecu-
liar institution, cannot and ought not ever
TO give rise to mere party discussion.
Utah, with ~polygamy, can never be ad-
miued to the Union by Democratic furth-
erance or consent. The Mormon lobby may
by powerful for dilatory obstruction. but a
candid Republican should remember not
only that it acts upon plastic material OBJ
tanned without regard to politics, but also
ought before calling for a plucking of the
Democratic mote, to cast out the weighty

NEW zEALANo's VOLCANOES.

Vivid Description OF the Tarawsra Erup-
uon-voicanoes In Action.
The scene at the time Of the eruption,
as it appeared to an eyewitness. is thus
described: AT about Q o'clock he was
awakened by a rumbling noise like that
of an earthquake. He went outside the
door, but could see nothing. although it
was a clear night. The noise proceeded
from Tarawera. Helooked around again
and saw a huge mass Of flame rise in the
heavens. and instantly lava and smoke
covered the ground. Soon after a vol
m OF flame issued from Runanga, close
to Tarawera. Large balls of fire were
thrown from the gaping mouth toward
Taupo, this accompanied by terrible re-
ports, which shook the whole place.
Forked lightning followed close upon the
balls of fire; it resembled the wriggling
of snakes; 1t returned to the crater,
forming the letter W The roar was
tremendous, resembling the heaviest
thunder.
AS each piece of hillside slipped into
the open basin large clouds Of black dust
rose out Of it and assembled to the
heavens. The fall of earth into the open
crater seemed to stop the fiery balls from
coming up, but forked lightning still
continued. Dense volumes OF smoke
issued from the crater. going in various
directions. AS soon as Ruawhina stopped
sending forth its terrible balls of flame a
huge white cloud issued from the cap Of
Rotomahana, and heavy booming was
heard, followed by volumes of white
compressed steam from Lake Rotoma-
hama 1t rose with terrible velocity, and
seemed to be going toward Okaro lake.
This lake is about five miles from Lake
Rotomahana, and the appearance it pre-
sented at times was something like a
huge boiling caldron, bubbling in all d.
rections.
Lightning then commenced to shoot
out from Mount kakaramea. From the
whole mount there came sheets of fame
and myriads Of shooting stars like large
rockets. Shortly afterward shocks OF
earthquake were felt, accompanied by a
noise resembling minute guns, but
louder than the roar of the heavi-
est gun known. There was an open
or s.er on Mount Kakarange, and imme-
dlately a huge volume of dense black
smoke issued from 1t, and the country
all around began to get dark. In half
an hour it was 30 black that no one could
see their hands in front OF them. While
this was going on q shower of pieces of
lava the size of peas came down with
terrible swiftness, and with such force
rs to be almost as dangerous as bullets

Some Examples of Curious I~ntergrafting.
In Germany, Strasburger has success
fully grated stramonium species, com
mon tobacco, henbane, atropa BELLA
donna, and petunia upon the common
potato plant. The most remarkable re-
suit is that, when datura stramonium
was grated upon a potato plant, the
normal-appearing potatoes borne by the
latter were found TO be i%mpregnated
with atropine. 1t is not stated, how
ever, whether the tobacco gratis infected
the tubers with nicotine. Tschudy had
already grated the tomato upon the
potato, producing potatoes from the bot
tom and tomatoes from the top of the
same plant.-Arkansaw Traveller.

Mr.. Louis, colored man, lectured

object of his effort is entrely praise.
worthy, but its effect is uncertain.
While his words were chasie, his dis
course, in the main, WAS Of doubtful
propriety, especially coming from the
source it did. He has yet one thing TO
learn before he can better the moral,
social and political condition of his
race, and that is, he must understand
that he is negro among Southern peo-
pie, and that his province is to teach
his own fellows, and not try to "lOrd
il over" his natural superiors. How
ever great man may become in
knowledge and power, he should never
forget from whence he sprung. His
virulent attack here on the Jews was
entirely uncalled for, and inconsistent
with his doctrine for the races. If he
wants to continue s'fat and saCcy," he
had better hold back his libellous and
slanderOus talk, and address himself as

is this awful degradation of free labor
which our plutocrats are learning to
import in quantities, to increase their
profits by Keeping down the wages.
The most stringent legislation onthe
question of the importation of labor is
absolutely required, whether they be
Mongolians or Europeans, and until it
is enacted and enforced it is idle to
talk about the protection of labor or
about legislation in the interest Of
labor. Too many Congressman are
willing to do loud talking for labor,
who are not ready to vote for healthy
bills. They know on which side their
bread is buttered they are not going
to vote against capital so long as they
can keep their seats by talking against
it. The capitalists who import such
degraded labor curse the country. The
only way to thoroughly cure the evil is
to make the corporations pay so high
price pr their imported labor that
they cannot afford the luxury.
