Taps.
And the lights are out!
The dead are sleeping on The hills,
And in the yales they sleep,
And wait the reveil}e
That wakes no more 10 war,
But to eternal Peace.
Upon this grave the lilies, and
On that the roses fade;
And fading there, they, to the
Fadeless, pay the homage of
A Nations sorrow and its love!
The gentle flowers know
Neither side in arms;
They draw no lines;
They give their fragrance freely to
The blue and gray.
Asleep beneath the mother soil,
Made richer by their blood
And watered with the tears
OF North and South!
\ South and North.
Made one by common grief,
Made new by sacrifice,
In brave defence of right,
As each saw the right.
To one came loss,
To one came gain,
And God decides!
VI hat in the battle days
We might have thought, or said, or done
Is quite forgotten now,
And, standing by these grassy mounds,
In consecrated ground,
We are at peace, as they,
Who rest beneath them are,
With one flag over all,
And not star dropped from Its place.
Our dead are dear to us;
No mother weepS the less
Because her boy wore blue or gray:
He was her child,
That is enough:
And buried there, she gives
Him al her tears,
Remembering only this
That he is dead!
Beyo, d, there is no blue or gray,
But, cluthed in white,
The serried ranks that fought
Shall fight no more.
That which Is lost is lost;
Let us forget the past,
And nobiy with the hands
That made the wounds.
Binds up the wounds,
And hide the sears
In flowers.

BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.

A bill has been introduced and an
effort will be made by the Alliance
members in particular to secure it's
passage, providing for the establish
ment of a State Board of Agriculture.
There are some good reasons why such
department should be created, and
if properly conducted much OF value
to the agricultural interes of the State
would result. According to the pro-
visions of the bill the commlSsioLl is
to have supervision of theSagricul
tural and forestry interests of the
state, and is to provide general rules
for the gui dance and management of
all societies and institutions whose
primary object is the promotion of ag-
riculture. 1t is to be composed of lhe
governor, master of the state grange,
and the presidents of the State Agri-
cultural society, the State Horticul-
tural society, the State Forestry asso-
citation, the state Dairymen's associ.
alton, and the State Farmers Alliance
The members of the board are to have
no compensation, but are to appoint a
practical farmer as secretary at sal
airy of ST, 500 annually. 1t is to have
authority to examine into the affairs
of any of the foregoing societies or
any other agricultural societies in the
state and direct the expanding OF their
funds in the ways indicated by their
charters. The board is to have charge
of the distribution of forestry bOun-
ties and direction of farmers insti-
tuteS.
Further, the board is to be author
lied to collect statistics in the inter-
ests of agriculture and to give all vail
liable information in it's possession to
the newspapers of the state for publ
cation. But such newspapers as shall
refuse to publish such information are
to be punished by being excluded from
the distribution of the annual reports
of the board.
This last clause is needless inter-
lection and does no credit to the au-
thor of the bill, Senator Borchert.
Newspapers are always ready and glad
to impart to the public all matters of
general interest whether they be in
the interest of one class or another,
and it is not in good taste, neither is
it well timed, to threaten the press
with boycott by enacting into law
such an uncalled for provision as the
one referred to. Senator Borchert
would exhibit broader intellect and
give evidence of better judgment and
clearer diScernment if he will with
draw the bill and eliminate that feat
ure which is certainly offensive to
every honest newspaper in the state.

Miss Guilbert is novelty and the
town is correspondingly mad over her.
Walt Whitman is making ready for
publication what he calls his last
book. 1t is collection of both prose
and poetry. He will call it Goodbye,
My Fancy!" a name which, Gays cri-
tic, is a mistake in consideration of
the fact that there is in existence a
volume of verse bearing the far more
apt title of "Hallo, My Fancy"
Sir William Gordon Cumming, whose
connection with an English card
scandal has made him the subject of
worldwide attention, was reported at
one time to be engaged to Miss Letter,
of Chicago. But there seems to have
been no foundation for the rumor.
His brother, however, married an
American girl, a Miss Fanny Eames.
Authors are all resorting to the
typewriter upon which to do their
work, and any active writer is scarce
ly without machine. Mr.. Howells is
quite an expert, and says the click of
the keys sets his thoughts in motion.
Mrs. Whitney also uses the machine
skillfully. Frank Stockton, Elizabeth
Stuart Phelps, Robert J. Burdette,
Margaret Deland, all send in type
written manuscripts.

vessel during the entire storm, never
leaving his post of duty for moment.

idea saved the lives of 400 people.

THE words of Chauncey M. Depew
&atdhe recent Federal club banquet in
New York should be committed to
memory by every true Republican who
believes in the principles of his party.
Mr.. Depew said:
The Republican party only fails
'when it is on the defensive and tries
10 apologize. A Republican properly
constituted has nothing to defend.
and when Republican attempts to
apologize for the principles and meas
ares Of his party he puts himself in
she position Of the religionist who
tries to explain why he believes in the
s1ecalOgue. He does not impair the
ea1ecalogue, but he ruins his own posi-
zion.
And again:
Fortunately, the lessons of advers-
aty have their uses, and they have
aroused the Republican party to its
eold spirit and its old aggressive tend
ency. We are no longer in an apollo
getic mood. We are lighting.

IT would not be graphically correct
20 say that the country is surprised to
learn that bribery comes to light in
the senatorial election struggle in the
California legislature. Has it not
come to be fully understood that there
rs no means but bribery by which any
man can secure an election as Re-
publican United States senator? If a
reform were coming, California would
not be the place for it to begin.-St.
Paul Globe.
Certainly not 1t would probably
light down in Ohio, where Payne and
Cal Brice hail from. The Democrats
don't resort to bribery. They have
another name for it. In fact they buy
their way into the United States Sen
ate and boast of their smartness in
hhis direction afterward.

THE Minnesota State Senate Nc

THE Minnesota State Senate Mon
day passed the usury bill, making in
zerest on loans and per cent. with
the forfeiture of interest and princi-
ple clause. This measure is piece Of
s1emagogical legislation, conceived by
political trimmers and passed by men
more anxious to curry favors with a
certain class than to honestly dis
'charge the great trust reposed in
them. Time will serve to show it a
had law. To reduce the rate of inter-
Est to 6 and 8 per cent. is all right,
BUT to drive honest capital out of the
State to make room for shylocks and
:scapegoats is all wrong. The passage
of this bill puts premium on rascali-
1Gy and places the borrower at the mer-
Fcy of INSCRIPTIONS and irresponsible
s>SchemerS.

| A PARSIMONIOUs, not to say mig
gardly, sentiment towards the Worlds
Fair appropriation has cropped out,
and an effort will be made by few So
called Performers to reduce the pro-
posed appropriation of 100000 to $780,
900. Twenty-one Alliance members
of the legislature have consulted to-
gether and decided to oppose any sum
greater than the last named for
Worlds Fair purpose. 1t were better
that no appropriation be made than to
offer sum so utterly inadequate for
the purposes contemplated. If Min
nesota is to be represented at all in
this great celebration, let it be thor
oughly and commercially done. Let
us not be placed in humiliating po-
SitiOn before the people of the world.
Let not the lawmakers make us the
butt for ridicule and adverse criticism.
A state which holds the proud position
of being second to none in the union,
which liesat the very door of the eX-
position grounds, which has every
thing to commend it to. the thought
full consideration of men of all classes,
and whose people are proud Of their
possession, is deserving of being rep
resented at the Columbian Exposition
in manner befitting her great
ness. The fear expressed that rich
men will reap the benefit is without
foundation. Capital can be depended
upon to take care of itself. What we
need to do is to provide for the poor
by developing our resources and set
Ting our vacant lands, and no oppor
tunity for doing this should be ne
elected. Let the legislature make no
mistake in its appropriation. $780,
900 is even too small sum, but it can
be made to answer the purpose. Any
thing less will be money wasted.

Of tine season looked out up The
diamond when Honolulu and Hawaii
were rung out to position saturday.
This was due no doubt more to
Memorial Day exertist- being in
progress than to poor eXpecta
lions, however much such might
have been Justified by the event.
Hooters may have been present, but
they footed not. There was nothing
particular on either side to toot for.
1t was slow game in lhp fullest ac-
ceptation Of the term. Il is need
less to investigate where the fault
lay. The scorer has put the data on
record. Below are summary Of
The match and the official score.
Hawaii to bat made a promising
start, Dan when two were out making
q two-base hit, followed by Thomp.
son getting base ON balls kc0hoka-
lole dished the fair prospect by going
out at first.
ii. Wodehouse, G. Lucas and
Whitney for Honolulu went out in
tandem at first.
Hawaii plled units up in the sec
ond-Luahlwa, Woois, Pryce and
ka0uli scoring without a single base
hit 4.
Chan. Wilder scored on base hit
and throw to first putting sue
cessor out.
Again Hawaii had it their own
way. After two were out, Simmons,
two-base hit Luahiwa, hit by pitcher,
and Woods, balls, all got home. 3.
total Z.
Then came HonoluIu's picnic--the
winter of Hawaii discontinue. The
nine went eleven times to bat. The
two Warehouses; and Parker made
base hits. Parker, Chas. Wilder and
Hay Wudehouse scored before one
was out; Whitney, Chan. Wilder and
f. Wodehouse, before the second
was out, and Carter and Parker b.
the fore third. Eight bells. Total 9.
Hawaii had five to bat in the
fourth, and Dan and Thompson hit
singles, but all to no use.
Seven went to bat for Honolulu,
but Chan. Wilder made the only base
hit. q. Lucas, Whitney and Chan.
Wilder scored.-3, total II.
Both sides now played ball, and
nobody crossed the home plate again.
Honolulu Lad five runs and one in
ming to the good.
Among only few incidents to re-
lieve the monotouy of the game were
Threatening of foul flies in the grand
stand-two by DR.. Nichols and one
by Mr.. j. g. Spencer, Secretary of
the League-and the failure to catch
one by the President.
