THE EAsr-BouND GRAIN RATE
An Advaaeo to Thirty Cents Likely to b
Made by the Chicago Roads.

An Advance to Thirty Ce.ts Likely to be
Made by the Chicago Roads.
CHICAGO. Nov. 2O.-Durine the past two or
three days the freight traffic officials OF nearly
every Chicago east-bound road have been
asked whether 30-cent grain rate is about to
be put into effect between Chicago and New
York. tbs believed that the advance will be
made when lake navigation closes and the
vast volume OF grain now in the West floods
thr Eastern roads and exceeds their capacity to
handle it promptly. Traffic officials are Of the
opinion that the advance would be unfortu-
nate: yet 1t is said that several representa-
tives Of Eastern lines WHO take this view Of
the situation would. when It came to vote on
the question favor the advance, because they
would not care to be placed on record as APP
proving u proposition which on its face is
beneficial to revenue.
The advance to 80 cents hundred would be
Q decided innovation. When tho Interstate
Commerce law was enacted the rate on grain
was anything. II had dropped to 8 cents a
hundred during the previous year. and when
the law took effect 20.oent scale was tried
It prospered. and then a 25-cent scale in win
ter and a 2O-cent summer rate were adopted
and latterly 25-cent rate all the year round
has been in vogue.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 20.-The Democratic

to make room for the Republican contest for

Three OF the candidates. moreover-Messrs.

that In some manner the New York deleg alton.

the situation and so the eyes OF all
the candidates are tnrned anxiously

ports from Indianapolis that the Alliance
will nominate q candidate for Speaker has
not made much impression among the friends
OF the regular Democratic candidates Such
action has been foreshadowed for some time
In the utterances OF Jerry Simpson and Presi-
dent Polk. and has therefore been fully dis
counted. A suggestion had been thrown out
that Col. Livingstone OF Georgia would be the
choice OF the Alliance. but 1t seems that he is
not encouraging the movement. and some
other representative will probably be named.
The candidate who would suffer most by
the Independent action OF the Alliance

THE ANGEL OF SORROW.

A poet whose songs were as sweet as could be-
sea,
Was stopped one day, on his joyous way,
By an angel, who said: 81 would speak with
thee.
Every true poet should aim to bring
Peace to some heart by the songs he may
sing;
But how can he know what will comfort woe
Until he has felt In his own heart its sting?
Thy life has been free from sorrow or care;
Hast thou the courage to suffer, and share
The grief and pain of others, to gain
The power to cheer those who burdens bearf'
The poet made answer, II have no fear
OF pain if it bring me the power to cheer;
Lay a cross upon me, and, though heavy it be,
Close will l hold it as a treasure dear"
The angel said gravely: Thou hast chosen
Alright,
And a cross WILDE laid upon thee tonight;
There is one to thee dear, and her loss, | fear,
Will be hard to end ure'-then vanished
from sight.
This was long ago; the poet, grief worn,
Has through the slow years his cross bravely
borne;
His songs arc replete with sympathy sweet,
And are dear to the hearts that loved ones
mourn.
He firmly trusts in q heavenly morrow,
His verses their charm from suffering bor-
row.
On her grand roll Fame has written his name
1t was whispered to her by the angel Sorrow.
