WHAT IT IS TO BE FORTY.


from He opTIlgFbetu CftOn.
To discover a sprinkle of gray in your beard,
A thinness of crop where the upland is cleared,
To note how you take to your slippers and
And hug to the fire when you get home from
town
All, that's what it is to be forty.
To find that your shadow has portlier grown,
That your voice has practical, bus'nesslike
That your vision is tricky, which once was so
bright.
And hint of wrinkle is coming to light
All, that's what it is to be forty.

Why, Of course. you'll be present, you never de-

But, alas there's no invite, you're not "young
folks" you see;
You're no longer peach, but crabapple tree
All, that's what II is to be forty.
daughter that grows like lily. queen
And that blooms like rose in a garden Of

A dapper young clerk in an ice cream saloon,
Both a dude and a Ounce is to carry off soon;
And boy that is ten and the pride of your eye,
Is caught smoking vile cigarettes on the sly
All, that's what it is to be forty.
At twenty man dreams Of fortune and fame:
At thirty his fire has soberer flame;
At forty his dreams and his visions are Ger.
And he knows and he feels as he ne'er did be-

That a man is fool till he's forty,

CROP REFORM.

Though the Northwest is naturally
the wheat granary of the world, and
though its wheat crop must always be
its greatest resource from an agricult-
ural standpoint, yet commendable dis
position is becoming observable On the
part of the farmers not to rely upon the
wheat crop alone. 1t has frequently
happened that growing wheat fields
which promised bountiful harvest,
and consequent plenty, have in a day
been destroyed by storms or other
causes, and the farmer rendered almost
penniless in consequence.
Sad experience of this kind has taught
the farmer lesson. While those whose
circumstances are such as to prevent the
loss of one seasons crop from being a
GRIPPING blow are as rule continuing
to devote themselves exclusively to the
raising of wheat, the smaller farmers.
who are dependent upon each years
crop, are, in many instances, diversity
ing their crops. They are thus assured
of something to fall back upon which
will tide them over another year, even
if their wheat crop should be entirely
destroyed.
The wisdom of such course is OBJ
vious. Its extension is in every way de-
sirable, for prosperous as the Northwest
is at present, the placing of the smaller
farmers in position to be independent
of occasional destructive agencies can
not fail to aid markedly to the general
prosperity.

A BANKERS, SYNDICATE.

In a time of political activity, such as
is now upon us, when the candidates,
like the birds, are out early looking for
breakfast, we must be prepared to
hear of all sorts of rumors about all
sorts of combinations that are being
formed. There is, therefore, nothing
surprising in the street rumor which
has gained currency within the last few
days that negotiations have been going
ON between Messrs. MERRIAM and
SCIIEFFER looking to the establishment
of a mutual aid society between those
gentlemen, whereby they are to
quit their hair-pulling and assist
each other into office. When a
man attempts to lift himself over a
fence by pulling at the strap of his own
boot, it is sure to be miSdirected energy.
1t has possibly occurred to both of these
gentlemen that they could get over Nc
GILL's fences better by helping each
other, and the rumor may have some
foundation that they have agreed upon
an equal division of the spoils. The
story is that Mr.. SCHEFFER is to have
the field TO himself in opposition to
Gov. MCGILL, and that in consideration
of the transfer of Mr.. MERRIAM's
strength that gentleman is to have the
nip at the congressional nomination.
But rumOrs are only rumors, after ALL
Still, it would be pretty strong syndi-
cate, backed by the banking institu-
tons, and capable Of giving 20 end of

HANDLING DYNAMITE.

That was curious accident at Locust
Gap on the Reading railroad Saturday
night, the details of which are given in
our news columns this morning.
Through the criminal carelessness of
some railway employee a car load of
dynamite was exploded, killing and
gripping a large number of people and
almost wiping the village from the face
of the earth.
But, as singular as was this accident,
it is still more singular that more acct
dents of this character do not occur.
When we consider the terribly
destructive effects of dynamite
and then consider the folly, or
what we would be more appropriate
term, the crime of permitting a car
loaded with this stuff to be sandwiched
in an ordinary freight train and run
through towns and villages and cities,
the wonder is that more damage has not
been done. OF course dynamite is an
article in demand, and has to be shipped
over railroads. But there ought to be
some provision for running dynamite
trains, and unusual precautions taken
in the handling of them. Just imagine
the effect of the dynamite explosion at
Locust Gap if it had occurred in the vi
cinity of the union depot in this city or
in the railroad yards in any large city.
And yet it might have occurred here or
elsewhere, just as it did in the Penn
valiia village. 1t seems to us that in
protection of their own property and of
their employees, the railway managers
should adopt some safer system for
handling dynamite.

THE TARIFF DEBATE.

OF course, all congressional business
has been delayed during the progress
of the interminable tariff debate, and
apparently to very little purpose. The
country had already pretty well made
UP its mind on either side of the ques-
ton, and it seemed that vote could
have been reached without so much
tiresome discussion, without detriment
to the interests involved on either side.
But even though pressing business has
been delayed. the discussion has been
valuable for one reason.
1t has pointed out with unmistakable
clearness that the Democrats, as a party,
repudiate the views of a few individual
members of their faith, and are en-
phatically in favor of a reduction in
tariff taxes and the lifting of the peo-
pies burden. On the other hand, it
has pointed out just as clearly
that the majority of the Re-
publicans are in favor of the
retention of taxes in the interest of
monopoly. This is an interesting and
significant distinction. The people
were aware of it before, but the progress
of the debate has impressed it upon
them with more force than ever be-
fore.
This is distinction regarding which
they will be called upon to express their
opinion at the polls next fall. and the
manner in which they will do it is
already evident enough.

GEN. BEENrS DEATH,
Mrs. BEEN Tells New Story Re-
gaPding the Suicide.

CHICAGO, May Ga statement will
be printed in the Times tomorrow to
the effect that the Union Veteran
League of Chicago, of which the late
Gen. BEEN was member, will probably
hold meeting to discuss meas
ures for investigating the mys-
terry of his supposed suicide in
Nebraska. Mrs. BEEN arrived here to-
day from Alton, where she attended the
burial of the dead soldier. A new feat
ure of the case is her statement that the
general attempted to murder her
before he Shot himself. This
does. not correspond with the
previous version of the tragedy
received in Chicago and supposed to
have been derived originally from Mrs.
BEEN. 1t was in effect that the two
shots fired were both directed by the
general against himself. Mrs. Beem's
statement here is that she was awakened
by feeling the pistol in the hands
OF the general being pressed
against her, and that the dis
charge was DETECTED by her throwing
up her arm, the ball cutting hole in
her dress at the shoulder. Gen. BEEN,
she says, Immediately turned the
weapon upon himself and died almost
instantly. Mrs. BEEN emphatically de-
MES that there was any trouble between
herself and her husband. She attrib-
utes his actions to mental arrangement
due to nervous ailment from which he
was a sufferer.

miracles of the past. Oh, it is not in
stray echoes from voices of Hebrew
prophets in dark corners of human his
tory that we learn the voice of God, but
it is when His tones, audible to the
soul laden with truth and righteousness,
are heard by us, that we can clearly
see that Isaiah and John had also
learned those secrets which our Father
has promised to those that fear Him.
But there is always in every realm a
harmony between power and law.
There must be proper channels for the
exercise of power. When the Nile
comes down with its floods the canals
must be ready to receive it's gifts of
fertility. Fire must be harnessed to
engines or it may waste itself in
,confiagrations. So that passion of God
for goodness which is full of benefience
to whosoever will receive Him is also
OF necessity wrath against all deeds of
darkness and all rebellions against His
love-. If duty done brings peace, must
not the same law crown sin with pain?
AS day and night walk together,
so are promise and penalty insepara-
% BILE IN any rational, moral realm. Pen
atty is as truly the emphasis of good
ness as are its legitimate rewards. The
kingdom of God is our Fathers promise
to the universe. 1t must come. 1t
shall come in power to break down all
opposing Institutions; it shall rebuke
the cruel; it shall wither the hand of
greed. The gentleness of Jesus is a
prophecy of the reign of love; but God,
who is Love, has also the Terrible for
His servant. A fathers love cannot
staunch the pain of a wrecked soul. 1t
is only restoration of the soul that can
bring peace. This is offered to us here
and now. Unrepentant sin has outer
darkness for its promise and natural
home.

appearance. 1t purports to be picture
recently taken from life by a special
artist sent to Florence for that purpose.
And thereby hangs the tale.
A fac-simile cut of the "Judge" pict-
ure is being sent to Republican news
papers throughout the country with the
request that it be published in advance
of the state conventions. The creation
of this ideal BLAINE picture and its
distribution over the country are thus
shown to be part of the scheme of the
BLAINE managers to force his nomina-
ton on the Chicago convention. When
ever the friends of Mr.. SHERMAN or Mr..
ALLISON or Mr.. Anybodyelse talk of
BLAINE's bad health the Judge picture
is Immediately produced in cODtradic-
ton. The Republican country news
paper offices have a stock of the Judge
cuts on hand. The BLAINE partiSanS
are going around with their pockets full
of these BLAINE pictures; and, taking it
altogether, the picture is doing more to
knock out SHERMAN and ALLISON and
the other leading candidates for the
nomination than all other agencies COM
bined. And yet, like his Florence let
ter, Mr.. BLAINE's picture is only a
tricix
