Watch, Mother, Match!


Mother, watch the little feet
Climbing DER the garden wall
Bounding through the busy street,
Ranging cellar, shed and hall.
Never count the moments lost
Never mind the time it cost;
Little feet will go astray;
Guide them, mother, while you may.
Mother, watch the little hand,
Picking berries by the way,
Making houses in the sand.
Tossing up the fragrant nay.
Never dare the question ask,
why to me this weary task?
These same little hands may prove
Messengers of light anCAove.
Mother, watch the little tongue,
Prattling eloquent and wild,
What Is said and what is sung
BY the happy, joyous child,
Catch the word while yet unspoken,
Stop the VOW before its broken,
This same tongue may yet proclaim
Blessings on the Sayiour's name.
Mother watch the little heart,
Beating soft and warm for you;
Wholesome lessons now impart.
Keep, keep that young heart true;
Extricating every weed.
Sowing good and precious seed;
Harvest rich you then may see
Ripening for eternity

THOSE who do not believe that a
newspaper often suppresses more in
teresting matter than it prints are re-
ferred to the managing editor of the
Philadelphia Ledger for proof of the
statement that it does. He refused
to print an alleged confession of the
thieving ex-Treasurer of that city be-
cause it dragged IN the names of men
who stood high in the community and
whom he refused to believe guilty on
the mere word of a self acknoWled-
ged thief. There is lesson in this
for those misguided persons who be-
lieve editors are always ready to print
matter that will make a sensation, no
matter whose character may be wrong
fully blasted. There may be a few
editors of that kind, but to the honor
of the profession it can be truthfully
said that the great majority of editors
are just the opposite, as they are con-
stantly proving to the few who know
of the highly sensational and inter
esting matter that is suppressed be-
cause it reflects upon persons who are
presumably innocent, or upon those
who are struggling to honorably live
down some past error.

An article copied from the Knoxville. Tenn.
Journal, has found responsive chord and been
copied (''without comment'O in the Dispatch, for
which one finds any fault with the Dispatch
the people Of this country are free to do as they
please in these matters. The Farmers Alliance
will grant the right OF the press TO think and act
as they please. 20 long as they do not interfere
with personal and political rights OF other people
In retarn for this the Alliance humbly gets down
on its knees and pleads for the hi and nifty
press to give US the same rights
But the writer Of the article referred to Mr.
Jones, must be one OF the Joneses from Jones
creek, when he thinks that when he event home
and wrote his resignation post haste as a member
OF the Farmers Alliance and withdrew from it,
that he had Knocked the stufin' " out of the F.
a. and U.
The writer resembles an illustration showing
how little a man is missed in this great world Of
ours. 1t is like this: "If a man thinks that he
will be missed by the world after he is dead. let
him stick his finger in the Ohio river and look for
the hole. So with Mr.. Jones. If he thinks the
Alliance cannot exist without his mighty aid, let
him try to batter down the mighty cliffs of his
Cumberland mounte'ns with his head-he can do
it just as easily % he can give the Alliance it's
death stab with his little ''saber."
What mighty man he is, to be sure, that he
can break ''the iron clad oath,' and the ''decep-
tious power by which the people are ''bound''
and made drunk
Mr.. Editor, it seems to the writer of this, that
Mr.. John j. Jones[ y is very numerous. That he
exists in quite a good many places. That he
wieds, in his mind very trenchant pen, and that
his sole aim now is, and will be for some time to
come to sow seeds of discord in the ranks Of the
Peoples Party-and the Farmers Allianc. He
not only proclaims TO the world his own brilliant
example, but he is so full Of knowledge that he
can report resolutions passed by County Alliances
when there has been no session at which 10 pass
them, instance Cloud county, and also to pass
..ringng resolutions" in which cares he appears
Fletcher Meredith.
1t looks TO though that cause which has 10
be bolstered up by misrepresentation is a pretty
lame one, and that the parties who must resort
TO such rotten props, poverty stricken indeed.
In the mean time, the Farmers Alliance and
the Peoples Party will go on in the even tenor of
its Way-Its members will worship at the shrine
of our common country, and will not be dictated
to by bosses, but will try to elevate the standard
of American citizenship, and let the ''animals
