He came back to Columbia in 1914 to
make a great Wing speech. Some OF
his Democrat opponents got up dog
gerel poem on his youthful episode,
relating to his leaving his board unpaid
and the canoe he took to float down the
river in; and this doggerel, which has
been COMPOUNDED by some with the real
poem Pike wrote, has caused the mis-
understanding by those who think the
doggerel written to mOrtify him was
the real poem that Pike is said to have
written. and that, therefore, Pike did
not write the poem. Pike did not
write the doggerel, but did write the
poem below.

Albert Pike was born in Boston,
Mass, in 1909. He went to Harvard,
was afterwards a school teacher, drifted
South to Nashville, and then to Co
Iumbia. He had genius and great in
tellect; but was, while here, young
man of unknown family and worst OF
ALA Wing. He boarded at the Nelson
House and his enemies say he left here
between suns, not being able to pay
his board. He went down Duck River

ris' and taught school to make money
| to go TO Arkansas.

He wrote many beautiful poems.
His "Ode to the Gods" is the best
known; but his "Every Year." and the
one below shows the gift of extraordina-
ry genius. Our readers will not find
anything more worthy of their scrap
books. 1t was written in Arkansas
soon after he left Columbia.

Schuyler Champion is the pOpulist and
democratic nominee for the state senate.
This candidate for legislative honors is a
tooth puller in Lansing and was nominated
by the democrats because of his pull on the
populists, but his election willabe the hard

Free Traders VS.. American Tin,
From American Economist.

From American Economist.
The little medal of American tin plate en-
| titled "Harrson-Red and Protection, 1892. f,
had been largely USED for distribution among
school children of the city of New York
until last week, when the free trade demo-
cratic board of education of this city became
greatly alarmed lest some of the democratic
parents OF the children should learn through
the little ones of the benefits of protective
policy. Quickly the police board ordered
that this distribution, which was strictly
within the law, should be stopped, and a
representative of The League distributing
medals to the school children after they had
left the school room and were on their way
home. was ordered to stop under penalty of
arrest.
We trust that every protection newspaper
in this country will let its readers know of
this attempt to prevent the distribution of
wholesome matter teaching the principles of
protection AS result however, of the
publicity in New York City. the school
children are taking il into their own hands
and every day besege The League rooms for
quantities of the tin plate medals for dis
tributiOn.
We grant that II may not be pleasant for
a democratic father TO have his child come
home singing:
Projections banner guards our land,
From England greed and pauper pay
And when play Great Britain's hand,
Please take me for BLOOMING JAY,
and asking what it means. but this is the
very purpose of the distribution. IL is our
idea that II the children of the home can
bring the subject to the attention of parents |
great good will result. The school children |
Of New York city will receive these medals, |
the attempts of the free |
trade oligarchy to prevent 1t.

One Caldwell, democratic clerk in til,
State house at Lansing, is the author of
series of Minchausen articles appearing
over the name of Re Form in the Press
This Caldwell is provident fellow and has
secured his relatives good positions under
the administration and has reformed matters
to that extent and also claims everything
in sight for himself and party. Caldwell's
Office necesstated. that he apportion the
State tax, which was done in very short
time. Caldwell Immediately boosted how
he ibid it," The facts came out that this
man who knows all about the State finances
could not accomplish this task but called i'm
the former State accountant, who did the
work. OF course Re Forms financial arti-
Giles are good enough for the readers of the
Press, where little is required and less
given. Re Form has been the mainstay of
the administration in Misrepresentation and
and his articles read as if inspired.
However, Caldwell Re Form is a man as
some other men and as good many more
are not.

| The republican candidate for congress in
the eighth district, w. S. Linton, is clear
man, irreproachable in character and who
despises the demagogue in politics. Com
pare him with the anticipated Youmans
who represents everything or nothing in
politics. Youmans stands on the populist
declaration of principles and on the demo-
cratic, and has such an elastic conception of
principles that would lead hun to endorse
the platform of the prohibition party and to
give assurances that he was in accord with
the principles of the liquor dealers if votes
were to be secured. From undoubted evil
dence it has been ascertained that Youmans
was the original teacher who said he taught
that the world was round or square as twas"
the Sentiment of the ''deestrick." Like a
mountebank who has hired out to 'please"
regardless OF his own will. Youmans IAN be
called the great cOntOrtionist.
