THE PRETTY MAN.

Where . freight-train had the impudence 70 in

Far moro strangely fascinating; twas pretty.
pretty man,
One who looked 80 calmly scornful Of All com
mon. human clay
That scarcely one in all the crowd could turn
his eyes away.
All boar tifulIy polished with the best Of toilet
soap.
His vivid cheek WAS fresh enough to move .
misanthrope;
And from his garments fragrance fell. ex-
tremely rich and rare,
While odors OF the barber-shop were waited
from his hair.
His white. expansive shirt-front shone-a mar
BILE sort Of shine,
Like that upon the shirt.front OF nrst-class
laundry sign;
And struggling from . button hole, two ways
across his breast
A watch-chsin loudly added 70 the glory Of his
vest
I'm not Judge Of smoke. and yet the smell
was % intense,
dare assert that his cigar was worth some
several cents:
And yet with light and liberal hand when all it,

Upon she girls in plain array he colby turned

Though gallantly he smiled on one who wore

And IL seemed dreadful pity such being was

He seemed 20 like gentleman all unobliged
TO work.
Oh. the poet sesth pathos even in the pomp OF
pride,
And ] felt throb OF pity as fingered near his

And when the engine cried: ''Toot-too." and
when the train swept by,

The earnest appeal of the colofed
men who met in convention at
Springfield, ILL.,, recently, should be
needed by the administration aud
by the Republicans in Congress, 1t
is the duty of both to see that the
life and property of the American
negro is as safe in the Southern as
in the Northern states. The re-
sponsibility rests upon the Repub.
lican party, and this subject is one
which should early occupy the at
tention of Congress.

YRE HERALD.
ISLAND POND. VT. OCTOBER IS.

The conspiracy 10 murder DR..
Cronin was bad enough, but the
conspiracy just developed to defeat
the ends of Justice and save the
necks Of the suspects is simply APP
palling. Those engaged in it have
not hesitated to boldly go INTO the
very court and employ the laws
officers to defeat the law. Comics,
sions already made indicate that
reports as to the success or failure
of the attempt to bride veniremen
were to be made to the principal
counsel for the defence. If such
should prove to be the fact the
special grand jury will probably
include that gentleman's name in
its list of indictments. It is to
he hoped that this conspiracy will
be probed to its very bottom, and
that every man, no matter how
high his standing, who has had the
slightest connection with this at
tempt to cause miscarriage of jus
tice will be made to suffer the sever
est penalties. If anything wert
needed to prove the guilt of the
suspects, this corrupt endeavor tc
save them from conviction would b,
sufficient.
States Attorney Longenecker and
his associates have encountered
difficulties which can hardly be
appreciated by the general public
in their conduct of this case, but il
is believed that they will have the
active aid of all citizens who cherish
II regard for justice.

The old saying about crying
''peace, peace, when there is no
peace" is beautifully illustrated by
The declaration of Premier Crispi at
Palermo that peace was assured
At the same time it is stated that
Italy has ordered fifty million cart.
ridges to be made with smokeless
powder. Everybody in Europe says
let there be peace and forthwith
arms himself to the teeth.
In time of peace prepare for war,
is an adage which the nations are
taking good care shall not be for
gotten. Never in the history OF
the world has there been such &C
tivity in preparation for battle as at
present. And while all that money,
science and mechanics can do is
being done to perfect the art of
destruction, the heads of the ma.
fions, who have at command twelve
millions Of men in Europe alone
ready to begin killing on moments
notice, are visiting and toasting
each other as if they were the best
friends in the world. The absolute
loss cntailed by these warlike pre-.
parations is incalculable, and now
the question has assumed a new
phase. 1t is not as to the probable
time when war may be expected tc
break out, but how long can the
nations stand the strain. Should
the present state of affairs continue
a time must come when the system
of armed nations must collapse on
account of the inability Of the peo
pie to support it any longer. Then
the truth of what was written by
ILerzen will become apparent
"There are only two questions
SAID Herzen, "the social question
and the Russian question; and
these two are one. Socialism vii
unite the two factions, the European
revolutionary with the Pansclavon
ian. The Russian question is the
new apparition of the barbarians
seeming the death agony, screaming
their Daemento mort in the ears OF
the Old World, and ready to put ii
out of the way if it will not die of
its own accord" Here is the real
rock-bottom cause of all those huge
ornaments and gigantic prepare
tions. The struggle is apparent.
inevitable and may begin any day.
