OF homespun Is the modest gown
Wherein my love goes clad;
And yet her regal eyes shine down,
As II their splendid deeps of brown
From under pressure Of Il crown
We're making my heart glad.
And wooden are the little shOon
That hold her slender feet;
But when the heart Of leafy June
Is shaken by a merry tune,
How light she trips beneath the moon,
With smiles how warm, how sweet
No glove Is drawn upon the hand
dearly love 10 hold;
But when upon the silver sand
The sunset hurls It's burning brand,
] kiss her fingers, where we stand,
Fun In the cloycn gold.
What marvel If love her true,
My little pleasant lass
The very air the sun shines through
Disiils for her special dew,
And harebells fringe, with sudden blue.
Her footprints In the grass.

How CAN'T BE expected of the Cen

accounts with the Government or do
the fair thing by the people, or see its
creditors whole, as long as it remains
in the hands of its original managers
and manipulators, with rich United
States Senator to look after its inter-
ests in Congress Let the Railroad
Committees try little compulslon
this time. This vast corporation is
well enough pleased with the let alone
policy. In order to bring it to terms
there must be substituted a do-some-
thing policy. Measures should be
devised not to wreck the property, but
TO save it--not to ruin its stockholders,
but to eject its bosses. The difference
between the Central and the Union
Pacific is that the latter, having been
rescued from that arch-plunderer, Jay
Gould, is now in hands that can be
trusted to fulfil its obligations, if
reasonable time is given. The Cen
trail is still under the control of its
origlDal arch-plunderers, and wants
nothing so much as not to be inter
fered with. 1t has no terms to offer,
and no disposition to accept terms.

WASHINGTON. JAN. 12, 1888.
THE PRESIDENTS PLEDGES.

In ms campaign speech in the Senate
yesterday criticising the Administra-
ton, Mr.. Hale lays great stress upon
the "high-sounding pledges" TO the
cause of civil service reform made by
Mr.. Cleveland prior to his election,
and quotes Mr.. George William Curtis
asdeclaring that these pledges at
tracted sufficient number of Inde-
pendent voters to the standard of the
Democratic party to elect its Presi-
dent"
The Senator from Maine then goes
on to show how negligent the Presi-
dent has been about fulfilling his
promises; how he has kept on making
removals and appointments without
regard to the principles of reform of
which he had posed as the chief adj
vocate before the country, and how at
last, by reason of Mr.. Cleveland's de-
fection to his early declarations, the
political value" TO the Democratic
party of the "cry of civil service re-
form" has ceased to be worth esti-
mating, and how primaries, caucuses,
conventions and conduct Of elections"
will henceforth go on in the old
fashioned Democratic way.
Mr.. Hale's argument would be of
some cogency on this point were it
not for the fact that the same Inde-
pendents who supported Mr.. Cleve-
land in the last Presidential cam
paign, under the leadership of Mr..
Curtis, and on the strength of the
Democratic candidates professed
fealty to civil service reform princi-
pies, stand ready to do the same thing
in the next campaign, on the ground
that Mr.. Cleveland, in spite of his in
ability to discard all party considera-
tions in the distribution of his pa
tronage, has nevertheless given the
country clean and wholesome Ad-
m'nistration enough to exact their
continued confidence.
He is still sufficiently a reformer to
please Mr.. Curtis, if not so much of
one as to command the admira-
tlon OF the grand army of reformers
that marched to defeat in 1884 with
Mr.. Blaine as their standard-bearer.
We believe it to be true, as Mr..
Hale asserts, that the Democratic
party is now in practical control of
the Government and will spare no
effort to stay where it is. We may
even admit it to be true, to quote the
Senator's language that "there is no
device, no plan Of campaign, resorted
to by the Democratic party in the
days of Polk and Pierce and Blu.
chanan, to retain control of the Ma.
tional Government, that will not be
resorted to this year." but the best
evidence that the Administration has
kept its pledges Of reform is toe be
found in the fact that the reformers
are so well satisfied with what they
have got that they will not transfer
their allegiance to a party whose per.
formances have fallen behind theil
promises such great ways further.

Broken Vows.

ooh! curse this awful appetite FOR drink.
l feel that am standing on the brink
OF precipice, with not friend around
To draw me back to firmer, safer ground
On, the thirsting! Oh the craving! Oh,
the burning!
Oh, the loathing! Oh, the loving! Oh, the
spurning!
Every nerve, every vein
ThrobS with pain
But I've sworn to never touch the stuff
again.
There's bar-room DER the way. Hear the
clink
OF glasses as the boys step up to drink.
There is something now a-pulling me that
way.
Hear the laughter Hear the singing! All
are gay!
For moment shall I step across the street?
How hilariously would old companions
greet
Shall go? How my brain
Throbs with pain!
But I've sworn to never touch the stuff
again.
"Ah! who is that reckoning to me?
IT'S my little sweetheart-none so fair as
she
She is waiting now to take the promised
How love to see her smile, and hear her
talk.
She 1t was Who plucked me from the rag
ged edge
She it was who made her lover sign the
pledge.
Nomore throbbing of the brain
Vanish pain
1 swear I'll never touch the stuff again "
Hear the hells-hear the changing marriage
bells
What tale of hopes and fears doth it tell?
See the ,bride-see the blushing, fearful
bride.
See the proud and happy bridegroom by her
side.
IT'S he who cursed his appetite for drink
'Tis he who stood upon distractions brink,
Every nerve, every vein
Racked with pain
IT'S he who sWore to never drink again.
See the tears-see the bitter, scalding tears.
See the wife-see the wife of two short
years.
See the ch1ld-see the puny, starving child.
See the man-see the man, unkempt and
wild.
See him raise his hand and strike with saw
age blow
Her whom he swore to love two years ago.
Hear her beg for life in vain.
See the Stain-the crimson stain.
She ne'er will weep DER broken vows again.
