CANCER OF THE TONGUE,
PSYCHE.

PSYCHE.
Agains- the 6usky back ground, pale and fair,
She stands, and in her heavy Edded eyes
A lurking sadness Ike shadow lies;
Above the golden tendrils Of her hair
Fit halo for the maiden face beneath.
And from the opened casket in her hand.
For which she sought the dark Plusonian land.
The mist, sleep laden, floats, an airy wreath.
Sometimes 1 think about that picture clings
magic spell. subtle witchery,
That breeze like, sways the folds of drspery
And quivers in strange lights upon her wings
1t steals into the depths of violet,
Whose loneliness her lashes half eclipse;
1t waivers in the smile across her lips,
Although her eyes are full OF vague regret.
All, wen, The world Is wide, and years are long;
Perhaps some time may discover why
The hnows murInur-roses bloom and die,
Or how our sweetest poets weave their song.
We may le' 4 what the spell is in a smile
That brightens earth as when spring comes
again,
May learn why Psyche smiles so strangely when
Her eyes are dark with sorrow all the while.

Henry George an Anarchist ?

4 Henry George an Anarchist :?
EDITORS HERALD-A contributor to
the HERALD Of yesterday presents
the public with the benefit Of
his valuable opinion regarding the
notorious single tax champion" and
his theories, claiming to have read
his books, his Standard and his reported
speeches, hence competent to Judge; fur
therm ore. by inference, he is also stu
dent OF nationalism and anarchy, other
wise this politico-economic expert would
not undertake to consider the single tax
and nationalism as synonomous schemes,
both pointing towards anarchy. The
next thing We shall expect from this re-
markable philosopher, who signs himself
s'Progress," is that in his opinion (and
of course he ought to know protection
and free trade are the same thing, both
pointing towards anarchy. My dear
amateur, don't you know that George is
the greatest exponent of competition
living, while the nationalists are trying
to abolish competition outright? Don't
you know that nationalists want to make
all the people employees of the Govern
ment? In fact, their government is the
whole thing, while the anarchists mean
to do away with government altogeth er,
and live haphazard as best they can.
Our able critic believes George is hon
est, and because he 'controls" (observe
the word controls) large following and
is about to carry his war into Australia
in other words, because he and his
theories are becoming popular-believes
in giving the devil his dues. No doubt,
when these things become little more
popular, so as to comprise the majority
of the people, this bright demolisner of
Georgism will be seen the last man in
the great torchlight procession crying,
"Hurrah for Henry George" In the
meantime, he consoles himself with the
fact that Mr.. George is handy tool
with which to blast the Republican pro-
lection tariff wall.
In conclusion, let me ask our friend,
since he could not get at the truth of
Georges teaching by reading his books,
paper, etc., to come and hear him speak
Perhaps his oral capacities are not quite
80 defective as his eyesight, and that
even if he thinks Georgism points to-
wards anarchism, as yet no report has
been made of the great land reformer's
carrying any dynamite about his person.

More of Fort Hill.

EDITORS HERALD-The people of Fort
Hill are much indebted to Colonel Smith
for the clear and logical way he has pre-
sented our case in your paper of the 23d,
referring to the action of the Council in
throwing cloud ovsr our beautiful hill |;
and it would seem that there need be
nothing further said. However, there is
one point 1 think the Colonel over
looked, and that is this! That we on
Fort Hill bought our lots directly of the
city, with no intimation at the time
that we would be at some future time
called upon to surrender back to them
what to US was the most valuable con-
sideration, namely, the beautiful and
commanding view they gave us, for we
would be either compelled to lower our
dwellings to correspond to the 60-foot cut
or procure a Jacobs ladder to reach
them.
Now, it seems to me that if this has
no legal bearing against their vandalism
-as Colonel Smith calls tit has a
moral one. However, it may seem
superfuous trying to bring to bear any
such obligations. 1t is not the first
time people, singly and collectively,
have tried to pull others down to their
own level. M. S. BAKER.

EDITORS HERALD-The storm did COM
paratively little damage here. Hodge
hall had to be watched closely Tuesday
night to prevent the storms depredations
of last week in undermining the founda-
tions from being duplicated. As it was,
but little damage was done. Mr.. Luke's
house settled several inches, throwing it
out of plumb, but the damage is incon-
siderable. R. E. Beaches house settled,
breaking the supply pipe, but will not
weaken the structure.
We still protest, as in the past, against
the water of Washington street, Figueroa
street and Grand avenue being concen-
trated on Jefferson street, turning it into
a miniature river and flooding good
portion of the village. 1t is too much for
good nature to endure. Will the city
please take notice? Third and last call.
1t is rumored that dry goods store
will soon be opened by lady in the new
Cad block. corner of Wesley avenue and
Jefferson street.
A new meat market will be opened on
Wesley avenue, opposite Skillman's drug
store, and grocery of Mr.. Haines, ON
January 1st by John Goudy. This en-
charging of business shows the we'll
grounded faith of strangers who, after
looking the country over, settle down in
this classic superb. A gentleman, hav-
ing been absent but few weeks, said on
his return the other day, that he saw no
place improving equal to University
Place.
Judge Omen, of DeSmet, South Da-
kots, who spent several months in our
village last winter, has just come back
to stay. How could man of good
sense do otherwise? He will soon open
an Office in the city.
The children of the Sabbath school
were sadly disappointed on Wednesday,
Christmas night, that "Santa Claus"
was 80 chicken-hesrted as to be fright
ened out by the storm. When they
learned, however, that he promised to
be on hand with his tree Wednesday,
New Years night, they revived and are
sure Of a good time.
The ordinance of baptism will be per-
formed by Pastor Matthew today.
The latest intelligence from DR.. Sinsa-
baugh, who, with his wife, went to Dem
yer some weeks ago to visit his son-in-
law in his sickness, is that in conse.

seer in the several districts, a detailed
report of the kind and cost of work done
in each district for the past year, with
such other information as will be valu-
able for reference. In some of the re-
ports the cost of tools is accounted for in
addition to the cost of bridges and roads.
The amounts appropriated each year
and placed to the credit of the several
districts is very small, being about
enough to repair the roads already built,
without leaving much, if any, margin
for the construction of new roads, and
where any margin is left ii cuts but
small figure when applied to new work.
In some OF the road districts it will
be seen that the Road Overseefs have
done very we'll and the roads are in good
repair, but it will be found in all such
cases that the roads are built in gravelly
soil.
The repairs on roads are hard to dis
cover on days journey, notably in dis
tricts where the soil is composed of
adobe and aand, in which kinds of soil
the monev for road work is quickly alb
sorbed. During the past year quite
chasing rights of way, viewing roads and
surveying.
The building of new bridges takes a
large sum of money from the general
road fund, as will be seen in the detailed
report.
There is more money spent each year
in the city for repairs than is allowed
our road districts for all kinds of road
work, taking into consideration the pro-
portional area of streets. Your honora-
BILE body will find it fact that our city

EDITORS HERAID-To those of the pub
lie who have not yet made their Christ
mas purchases, I would like to make an
appeal on behalf of the self.dependent
women whose home is committed to
my care. Many have made strenuous
efforts to get money to put into materials
for the work for the Christmas sale,
which, through the inclemency of the
weather, has not met with the success it
merits. consequently great quantity OF
beautiful work lies unheeded, though
many hopes and fears are interviewer
with its patient stitches, and the money
expended is complete loss.
Give us not of your charity but OF your
kindly interest and patronage; and let
1000 people buy but 81 worth. Yours
very truly, M. F. B. JosIyN.
