For the greatest living statesman" and
the 'leader of his party" Mr.. Blaine seems

scramble for the office.

Both Senators Chandler and Sherman are
trying to place congressional elections UNI
der federal control, ami have introduced
bills into the Senate for that purpose. The
bill introduced by Senator Sherman pro
vides for federal returning boards, to be
appointed by the President Under Gen.
Harrison, of course, the returning boards

When Gen. Harrison was in the Senate,
he voted several times against restriction of
Chinese immigration. Not only that, but
he was in favor of making voters Of China
men in this country. Yet the Pacific states
gave him their electoral votes, but now the
same states object very strongly to Senator
Hoar for the cabinet, n1twiths landing his
record on the Chinese question is no worse
than Gea. Harrison's. Having accepted
Gen. Harrison and his record, the people Of
the Pacific coast cannot consistently object
to Senator Hoar.

1t seems rather remarkable that those
who are entitled to vote should have to be
urged to qualify themselves for doing So and
yet such is the case. The city election
occurs within very few days, and not one
half of those who are entitled to cast bal
lot in it has registered. Do those who have
not registered feel no interest in the cleo
ton! Are they Indifferent about the result
of it! They must certainly desire that the
city shall have a good government, and it is
their duty to do what they can toward
selecting good men to manage municipal
affairs.
Every citizen, whatever his position, and
however small his property interest in the
city may be, must be anxious to have the
city governed by the best men that can be
secured to perform that duty.
Too many voters put OF registering from
day to day until it is too late TO do so, and
then, if those they favor are not elected,
they complain loudly about placing unfit
men in places Of responsibility. They
should not permit themselves to have any
such ground for complaint. They should
register and vote, and then they can find
fault with better grace il the officials
elected are not satisfactory TO them. The
election occurs next Tuesday, anc tho regis
tration books will be closed tomorrow

Oh NEIL.
By FLORENCE JOSEPHINE BozcE.


Yes, stranger, the old horse is dead, sir,
And We moUrned for to part with our Nell,
Since she's served us for many a year, Sir
Since she's labored so long and so wei.
Be sure, she was not very young, sir,
Nor as handsome as many a one
But look for more faithful beast, SIR
And III guarantee you viii md Zone
How gentle she was to us all, sir,
Ayi twas seldom you'd see one more klnd
And tho years had come and had gone, SIR
Tho her eyes were becoming quite bind
Wien the little girls went to the STALL sir,
Where their faithful old Nellie was lied,
She would look from her patient brown eyes
And seem to invite them to ride.
And they knew very well what she said, sir,
Or what she was trying to say;
For do think she used to converse, sir,
Tho, OF course, in her own silent way.
And once to a man Of renOwn, sir,
This very same Nellie was sold,
And taken away from the town, sir,
For a thousand bright dollars In gold
But that was in days passed away, sir,
An, yes a much earlier date,
And then she was pranc1ng and gay, sir
IWO-fOrty she Went with mate.
But old age viii come al some time sir
And death viii appear, at the best;
So We'll just remember old Nell, sir
And think she is calmly at rest
Two shoes from her patient old feet, sir
Hang high on the sitting-rOOm wall
They're giIded all over quite neat, sir
Her story We tell unto all.
But you think there's no home for a horse, sir,
Thereafter she's put in the ground,
Excepting the place where she lies, sir
Excepting the grass-coYered mound?
Well, well and perhaps you are right, sir,
Perhaps that your way is as WE'LL
But if heaven there is for a horse, sir,
There1l be q bright spot for old Nell.

There is an old cOlOred man in An-

The miracle touch of spring was
resurecting the dead world to a new
and beautiful life. The stony slopes
Of the Cumberland Mountains were
garlanded with green. The sunlight
through the budding trees was sitting
down like silver rain. The songs OF
the black peasantry rang from planta-

sweep of Loves Valley, in grand,
weird slaves, while over all there hung
sky Of violet splendor as vivid as ever
bent above the gIOri6ed gardens Of
Italy.

melody Of the waking world, a funeral
procession wound its way to the mount
