THE IrontOn REGISTER is hot on the
trial of Mr.. Seth Cobb, to whom it re-
fers as SO gold bug" The REGISTER
should calm Itself and remember that
Mr.. Cobb is trying to represent the
Twelfth District, not the Thirteenth.
Let us be fair as we travel through this
vale of tears.-st. Louis Republic.
The REGISTER criticises Mr.. Cobb
because it believes he did not repre-
sent the masses of his constituency in
his action on the silver question, and
this belief is founded on views re-
ceiyed from several true, hard-wOrk-
ing Democrats Of the Twelfth District.
Mr.. Cobb possibly voiced the wishes of
The silk hat and kid glove crowd OF
the Merchants Exchange, but he did
not truly represent a large majority of
the working Democrats of the District.
And now that We have the attention OF
the Republic. we again cali ca that
most esteemed contemporary to declare
itself. Where does it stand on the sill
YER question? Whom is it trying to
server The people of the great Mis-
sissippi Valley or the Money Barons of

The country press can have a great

affairs than any other agency if it will
but exert its power. 1t is the county
paper that is most sought after and

The country press has been in the fore

the Tariff fight. 1t reaches class Of
voters that the metropolitan press can
not reach. If the editor of the county
paper be q man of ideas he will make
an impression On his readers not easily
to be effaced. If he consents To follow
along in the track of the metropolitan
press he will not amount to much, for
often the policies and prejudices of the
city are directly opposed to the inter-

are affected. They look to their local

LESS than three years ago Senator
Carlisle voted for the free and unlim-
tied coinage of silver. Last week
Secretary Carlisle made a s'gold bug
speech before the New York Chamber
of Commerce. He did not attempt to
explain this wonderful change of front;
why he favored bimetallism as sena-
tor and recommendation as a Cabinet
officer. But tits plain to see; the hand
of Cleveland is over it all. Wall Street
dictates to the President, and the
President rulcs his clerks.

matter of Bill Stone for President in
'96?"
1t is too early by two years and a
half to be trotting out any candidate for
president. Why, only six mouths ago
we would all have been satisfied with
Mr.. Carlisle, in fact he was growing to
be the logical candidate. But who is
there now to do him reverence? Then
there was Wilson-the great champion
of tariff reform, the able and convincing
writer and ideal statesman. How we
loved him in 1892. Alas, poor YOrick!
Then there was the brilliant Mills. He
too is another lost opportunity. There
isno telling what any man will do until
he is tried.-Dunklia Democrat.
That is precisely the reason why we
favor Gov. Stone. He has been tried
and proved himself true blue. Bill
Stone or man like him We must have
for President in 1896.

had committed suicide started probably
from the same source as the recent re-

Administration and its friends will
have to begin early and make lively

On dead-long dead hopes he is still in :

In the dear old home where once we
played,
'Tis 1 who shrink, he is innocent
The sad-taced your dreamer l be-
trayed.
He comes and goes along darkened
ways,
Sings the old songs we together
suug
Dreams the foolish dreams of long-dead
days
When hope yet lived and Twas young
A fitting ghost of that longlost time,
He dwells back awith life's tairest
things,
Dark eyes, soft lips-oh, dear God OF
mine
Loves sweet promise and exchange of
rings.
In that world-lost nook bless'd hope
still lives.
Faith, love, and truth abide with
him;
All have lost tond memory gives
Safe refuge in that lone Eden dim.

Mr.Call saidhe preferred the res

SLANDER.

From rendom converse. grave or gay,
A poisonous little lie was born,
Like many lie that looks on day,
1t failed to hold itself in scorn,
1t preened each tiny and bat black wing,
And felt for its nice, poignant sting,
And said with secret gladness, II
Am full fledged symmettic lie.'
Mounting in air, it paused a while,
Then lighted on gossip's lip;
The gossip, with Indifferent smile,
Brushed it aside, yet bade it slip
Into an old beau's prating mouth,
Whence wandering north. east, west and
south
1t buzzed beside the ear, at last,
Of one who gazed on it aghast.
Slyly it buzzed tale of faint
That smirched with blame the treas
ured life
OF one whose duteous deeds made saint
The unworded synonym for wife,
He caught the weak, slim, wasp-like lie,
Crushed it in both hands, watched it
die,
But dying it dared this taunt to fling
"My ghost lives on; my ghost can

WHY?

Oh, why must the flowers we cherish
Be the first to fade away;
And the hopes that dawned with the
morn
Go out in the evening grayi
And why must the path for tender feet
Lead over the rugged hill,
And the eyes that beam with love and
truth
Be closed in death SO still.
Oh, why must loving and tender heart
Be crushed by the hand of sorrow;
And the dark night which aff1iction
brings 4F+-
Show q sgleams of the comias NOR
row?
All, we do not know, we cannot tell;
But in that happy bye and bye,
When we have launched our bark on
the other shore
And rest meath the summer sky,
Perhaps as we walk by the Masters side
On those beautiful streets of gold,
We shall see things as we cannot now
Perhaps all mysteries will then un-
fold.

PLENTY OF oFF1OE-sEEKERs
The No-Reappointment Rule,-Ex-
ceptions Thereto.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The
number Of callers on Mr.. O!eTe-
land to-day showed no diminus
ton from the previous days with
in the past two weeks. Senators
and Representatives formed the
bulk of the visitors, but their mis-
sions were mostly in connection
with local offices. But little was
said to the President concerning
his noted rules. They have come
to be 80 we'll understood that but
few points in regard to them re.
main to be cleared up. The no
reappointment rule is of course the
principal one, and in it the great~
est interest is manifested. From
what Mr.. Cleveland has said. it is
understood not to apply in certain
cases, as follows:
1. To those who have no opposi.
ton for re-appointment.
2. To those candidates for rost"
masterships who have opposition
but are endorsed almost unani.
mously by citizens of their city or
town.
3. To those who were removed
by the Harrison administration
without serving out their terms.
4. 70 those who were nominated
tor office by Mr.. Cleveland Just
prior to Gen. Harrison's inauguras
ton, but who failed of confirmation
by the senate.
Since exceptions to this rule
have become more familiar to
ofhce-seekers, there has been a rush
of ''exs" to The White House.
They have received little satisfac-
tion from the president. however,
unless they enjoyed his personal
acquaintance or were known to him
by reputation. They haye received
some comfort from an other excep>
tion to rule which is reported to
provide that an applicant for ap-
pointment to Office formerly he'd
by himself, may apply for another
position with as good chance for
selection as any other candidate.
