THE CHILDREN.
ey are such tiny feet.

They are such tiny feet,
They have gone so short way to meet
The years which are required to break
Their steps to evenness, and make
Them go
More sure and slow.
They are such little hands.
Be kind; things are so new, and life but
stands
a step beyond the doorway All around
New day has found
Such tempting things to shine upon; and so
The hands are tempted oft, you know
They are such fond. clear eyes,
That widen to surprise
AT every turn! They are so often held
To sun or showers; showers soon dispelled
BY looking in our face.
Love asks. for such, much grace.
They are such fair, frail giftsi
Uncertain as the riffs
OF light that lie along the sky;
They may not be here by ana by.
Give them not love- but more above
And harder, patience with the love.

fight for fair rates, and the interests of
the Twin Cities were not antagonistic to
the country towns. The inequality of
the present rates was shown, and the
principles involved in the cases brought
during the past year were explained.
j. r. Parshall said it could be proved
that the bonus given the Cannon Valley
railroad exceeded the cost of the road
by $4,000. Members of the State

A BLIZZARD BLESSING.

1t seems that the great. New York
blizzard has been in one respect. at
least, a blessing in disguise.
For years one of the pests of New
York has been the multitudes of En-
glish sparrows which, multiplying with
almost inconceivable rapidity, had
driven the native song birds almost out
of existence. During the blizzard,
however, the sparrows were destroyed
by the tens of thousands. Compare
lively few of them are now left. Their
disappearance has been marked by the
return of the song birds-as welcome
visitors as the others were unwelcome.
That this is gratifying fact, of
course, goes without saying, and great
though the cost of the blizzard was, the
return of the birds which it made pos
sible is regarded as mitigating factor
of no mean order. Some day similar
experience may be the lot of st. Paul.

LONG AND SHORT HAULS.
The Chicago & Kansas City Cut in Rates
Criticised by Competitors.
DIFFERENTIAL ASKED FOR.
Annual Meetings of the Pennsylvania
Company and a Brace of
Western Lines.

CHICAGO, June 5.-The Chicago, St.
Paul & Kansas City road has dropped
its through rates between Chicago and
st. Paul to 40 cents first-class, and other
classes in proportion. All the other
roads, except the Burlington & North
ern, advanced rates to st. Paul to the
60 cent basis. The popularity of the
reduction in the case of the st. Paul &
Kansas City road is the fact that while
reducing its through rates it still holds
up its local rates, so that in many in
stances the charges are greater for a
short than for a long haul. This is a
plain violation of the interstate COM
merce law. The other roads in the
Northwest are not disposed to antago-
nize the laws, and will for the present
adhere to the 6O-cent basis.

REGARDING RATES.
Railroad Magnates Tell Iowa's
Commissioners What Is What

Dies MONIES, To-, June "a meeting
of general freight agents with the rail-
road commissioners was held here to-day
and was we'll attended. The conference
was very informal one, and lengthy
arguments were presented. At the
morning session remarks were made by
President Stickney, of the Diagonal,
and in the afternoon by j. NJ. johnson,
of the Rock Island, and by Wicker, of
the Northwestern. All of the speakers
were closely questioned by the COM
missioners and no point was left un-
touched. The freight managers stated
that the evils complained of were ere
ated by the operations of the interstate
commerce law, before which the job
bers and manufacturers Of the state had
enjoyed special rates. They said they
were as much in favor of building up
Iowa business as were the jObbers and
manufacturers. They asked that the
commissioners adopt rates as near as
possible conforming with those agreed
upon by the companies and give them
at least fair trial.

something of joker, played a prank on

IF THERE'S NO FAITH.

If there's no faith between us twain,
Then love no more is king and lord:
All of our past was lived in vain,
The future hath no fair award
If hope is not between us two
Lifted to life with every breath,
Then are our roses twined with rue,
And love is in the way of death.
If dark distrust and chilling doubt
Cnclasp the hands our hearts have wed.
Then has the sun of life gone out.
Aud love lies sleeping with the dead.
And il love dies, the world is bare.
There is no light in all the gloom;
Life stretches out in blank despair
There is no refuge buuthe tomb.

Down in the Second district it looks
as if Tom Bowen was really going to
have congressional boom of such pro-
portions as will make him a candidate
against Lind. The friends of Morton
S. Wilkinson have not given up their
intentions of presenting his name to
the convention, and his own county has
Endorsed him; but Waseca has taken
hold of Bowen's boom with great vigor.
The nomination of either could not fail
to be of benefit to the party since each
has peculiar merits of his own that
would materially help in building up a
new and vigorous Democratic organiza-
ton in that section. The Second dis
trict badly needs dose of Democratic
doctrine and campaign work. Bowen
and PAIL in Brown and adjacent coun-
ties have done effective work, Blue
Earth is in fair condition, but the south
western section furnished room for de-
cided reformation.
