VIEWS OF VISITORS.
Due to the Newspapers.

Harrisburg, Pa Telegram
In fact, the press club, the governor.
the mayor, the newspapers and the
people kept the latch string of good
will constantly in the breeze outside the
doors of their cheerful homes, and the
frequent manner in which the boys
toyed with the loving emblem can be
recalled as the best evidence of their
appreciation.
Nothing could be said that would
more fifty describe the phenomen al
progress of st. Paul than an allusiOn to
its newspapers. the Pioneer Press.
GLOBE, Journal, News, Dispatch and
others. They are the successful lnstru-
ments which have so largely contributed
towards making this city of more than
10000 people. Every publication In
st. Paul is comfortably housed. The
Pioneer Press and GLOBE are luxur-
iOusly so.
In conclusion the Harrisburg Tele-
gram takes pleasure in saying that the
Masonic fraternity have new home,
too, which is as handsome as anything
of the kind in the United States, and
that the city of st. Paul has paid fire
department the equal in equipment,
efficiency and size TO that of any city in

THE OLD POST ROAD.
The fences now on either side

The fences now on either side
Have fallen TO decay,
And slender vines creep up and hide
The posts of messy gray.
They stand like sentinels sedate,
Their heads appraised on high;
Their office is to watch and wait;
The coach will soon pass by.
Across the road, untouched by wheels,
A little streamiet flows,
And here and there the long grass steal
In waving. narrow rows.
The daisies in the roadwayS gleamI
They blossom, fade and die.
Yet as | wander here l dream;
The coach VIII soon pass by.
Beside the road the oak trees tall
Their sweeping branches spreadi
A benedicilon seems to fall
From arching boughs o'erhead.
Across the road, suggesting rest,
Their giant shadows lie;
The sun sinks to the golden westi
The coach will soon pass by.
The sun is hid by distant hills,
The road grows dim and gray,
A blessed peace my musing fills,
Yet ere the close of day
/ listen for the postboy's call,
And strain a watchful eye
l like to think that. after all,
The coach will soon pass by.

THE TICKETS FOR '92.

Mr.. Blaine is not an old man, but he
is in his latter years. He ought to live
ten years in the harness, but the condi-
tion of his health makes the selection
for the second place matter of unusual
consideration. OF late boom has been
started for Judge Gresham. It's doubt
full II he would accept, but there is no
denying that Blaine and Gresham would
make, as a whole, one of the ableSt and
most popular tickets ever offered TO the
people for their SuffrageS.-

Vnn NIolfke,s Memoirs.

BERLIN. Aug. 16.-The relatives of
the late Count Won Moltke often urged
the count during his life to write his
tory of the war of 1870. The count
always replied that all necessary
information could be found in the
archives of the general staff. At one
time he admitted to his nephew that
the staff history was intended for eX-
perts, and was too elaborate for
the general public. If needed, he add
ed, an abstract of the history could be
made. Thereupon the nephew placed
the whole work on his uncle'S desk, and
the count, accepting the suggestion, did
the work contained in his memoirs in a
popular and succinct style.

The Cities.

Lewistown ND Democrat.
st. Paul is very beautiful. Its news
paper offices are among the finest in
the world. Hotels, banks and other
business houses are fine. In private
residences there is a variety and eIe-

finest ones sit on high hills with very
extended and beautiful views taking in
the river, the distant hills and yet more
distant farms that look graciously these
golden harvest days.
