that, while the Senator was bird

1t was first reported that one of his

far from assistance and long in
reaching home. This makes the
third serious accident that has. be-

THE BREATH or SONG.

IF. II. Sherman.
From the minister's organ loft,
Floating down the shadowed nave,
Comes a strain of music soft,
Failing as IA weary wave
Falls upon the beach of sand,
Murmurous and sweet and bland,
Bearing from he mighty sea
Messages OF melody.
There, alone the organist
Lets his listless fingers go
Lost In u melodious mist
Orc the keyboard TO and fro;
There, half dreaming, IN the gloom.
Sits the weaver nj his loom,
Weaving with the threads ofsound
Music-woof the warp around.
All unconsciously he hides
Strains familiar in his theme,
When a master spirit glidcs
through the doorway oi his dream.
Mozart, Handel. Chopin or
HArmonys great couluror-
Rapt beethoven each Is part
or the dreaming players heart.
So the poet dreams, he hecds
Who may listen, who may hear;
Following where fancy leads,
She alone to him Is dear;
Omar, Keats, Iheocritus,
In his yoico may speak to us
From the realm Of ages dim
These are i'll the hearts ofhimi
Poets in the fields of time,
Since tie world began, have sown
Wide the precious seeds OF rhyme,
And To us to-day are blown
Odors from these poem flowers
Seedlings ol the labor hours
Biossoming the fields along,
Breathing the sweet breath OF song

It was said of him still that he

the benefit of the law of March 3,

As the presumption law has al

arbitrary rulings of Register John

the authorities at Washington, and
that they did not as charged cause
many settlers TO lose "their pro

II Register Adams "has been able
to get the eighty acres restored to
the settlers homestead" II has been
by the settlers compliance with the
law OF March 8, 1870, and not other
wise.
IL there Is emo relief, so far as con
Germs the lost pre-emption rights of
this class OF settlers,p II is because
the presumption law has not been
amended, rs the homestead law
was.
II is thus made very evident by
reference TO the law, the decisions Of
the interior department, and the
facts that no settlers have had ''to
suffer on account of the over-Zeal-
business of Mr.. johnson In applying
the land grant law against them"

NEGRO COLONIZATION.
An Interesting Debate at Michigan
uuIyerslty.


ANN ARBoR Mich, April Am in
teresting debate was held this evening
In Michigan university between students
representing the law and literary depart
ments, tile question being whether OF
not the colonization OF the negroes
would be for the best interest of tho
United States, the judges being pro-
fessors OF the faculty. Their decision
was in the negative.
Among the points argued by the
students Tor the affirmative were the in.
ierlority OF the colored race from biblical
and scientific standpoints, the evil that
must result from the mingling OF su-
periOr and inferior races under the same
government, The determination or
ainhlgamation Ot tho colofed race Ii
manliestly impossible. hence colonial
ton Is the only solution. The negroes
removal would settle the Southern qGes-
tion and put an end to the present lack
OF prosperity in the South. In Liberia
ne would be his own master.
Those In the negative held that COM
pulsory colonization would be uncon-
stitutional. Optional colonization would
be necessarily ineffective. Granting the
constltdt !Onnlity the cost of removal
would be excessive. The negro II an
American citizen and entitled TO the
rights OF citizenship. Remove hlm, and
the cotton industries of the South would
suiier irreparable harm. They argued
that no was advancing morally and in
tellectually.

INCREAsB OF THE FUND.
Section 81 will have the effect to
increase our county school fund, as
It makes the minimum levy -four Ch
mills, whereas, heretofore, 1t has
been three, and invariably adhered
TO by the spokane county commits
sloncrs. One board In the history
of the county even tried 10 go below

friends of the schools with copy OF
the code.
section IS simpliies the laying of
special taxes aud authorizes what
has generally been the unauthorized
usage, VIZ: To vote so many mills.
1t also requires such levies to be
reported to the county auditor by
October In the year of the vote,
thus regulating "A former prolific
source of MISUNDERSTANDING and
delays.
rs 1T A JOKE?
Is II humanitarian's joke in sec
tion % which enables voter at any
school election to cast his ballot
"without being opened or exam
ined?''
section 63 leaves no doubt on the
question of women voting Mt any
school election. Its language clearly
admits them, without regard Ia
taxes.
Progress Il made i'm section 50
toward compulsory education by
emitting the old provlso that fine
for failing to school child might be
reinltted In the discretion of the
county commissioners. Now the
fine must be insisted on.
The above are believed to he the
most important changes that need
speedy circulation. With very lit
tie time to spare for the task, and
with access to the general law only,
| have given that as careful u
perusal rs possible.
OTHER CHANGES
can he looked up when the state
superintendents publication is out.
About one-half or more of the pres
ent law il Identical with the old.
On the whole, | regardithe law as
very Creditablc to the legislature,
and in many respects an excellent
revision.
The general law legalizes all con-
tract and district organization made
under the former code, thus allowing
for an easy transition.
