So far as we are concerned, we
believe, and we assert it without
hesitation, that President Harrison
did wholly wrong in dismissing.
Corporal Tanner. When President
Harrison was elected it was upon
the expressed promise, emphatically
made, that he would maintain an
exceedingly liberal policy toward
the soldiers-would be much more
liberal than the Cleveland admins

the Commissionership with this I'M
Outstanding and he was honestly
attempting to carry out this policy
and redeem these party pledges
which were made before the cleo
ton. 1t is true in order to exceed
Cleyeland's liberality he was empty
ing the U. S. treasury and would
have bankrupted the Government;
but what matters this2 a promise
made by the chief magistrate of the
U. S., should be held sacred and
should be redeemed at any cost.
If President Cleveland had promised
when he was candidate that if elec,
ted he would give the whole conn
try over to the soldiers and if he had
been elected, he would have redeem.
ed this pledge if it took his whole
term to accomplish it.. President
Harrison should have done the
same. He should have redeemed
his promises. He should have sus

"liberal policy" but instead he wa

THE KINGS DAUGHTER.

She wears no jewels upon hand or brow /;
No badge by which she may be known
of men;
But, tho she walk in plain attire now,
She is a daughter of the King, and
when
Her father calls her at his throne to wait,
| She will be clothed as doth befit her state.
Her Father sent her in his land to dwell.
Giving to her a work that must be
done;
And since the King loves all his people
well,
Therefore, she too, cares for them.
every one.
Thus when she stoops to lift from want
and sin,
The brighter shines her royalty therein.
She walks erect through dangers mani
While many sink and fall on either
hand;
She needs not summers heat nor winters
cold,
For both are subject to the Kings
command;
She need not be afraid of anything
Because she is the daughter of the King!
Even when the angel comes that men
And name was terror-it appals not
her;
She turns to look at him with quickened
breath
Thinking 1T is the royal messenger ="
Her heart rejoices that her Father calls
Her back to live within the palace walls.
For tho the land she dwells in is most
fair,
Set round with streams, like pictured
in a frame,
Yet often in her heart deep longings are
For that Imperial palace" whence
she came;
Not perfectq quite seems any earthly thing,
Because-she is a daughter OF the King!
