Visitors at the Worlds Fair will have an
opportunity to witness the publication of a
daily newspaper from the beginning to the
end of the work, and in all its branches. The
Columbian Exposition Bulletin, of which
Major Handy will be the editor and w G.
Gates, who has been connected with the Min
neapolis Tribune and the Review of Reviews.
will be business manager, will be published
in the Machinery building. Besides this, the
leading afternoon papers of the city will get
out special Worlds Fair editons from the
same building. FIVE of the leading English
morning papers of the city will each CON
tribute a page to the Bulletin, and the other
three pages will be edited on the grounds and
contain only Worlds Fair matter. 1t is prob
able, too, that similar arrangements may be
made with the city papers printed in foreign
languages. The ipages that are contributed
by the morning papers will go to the grounds
in the shape of stereotyped plates ready to
go on the presses. The matter for the other
three pages will be collected on the grounds
and will be put in type by type machines,
which will also serve as exhibits. The ster,
eotyping process ofmaking roller plates will
be shown in another room, and then the pa
pers will be rolled off the presses placed in
the Machinery building.

For Z Times Democrat
Under the sod of old Metairie,
ITwixt tho blue of the Lake and the blue
of the sea,
Slumbcr the sturdy-souled soldiers in gray.
Till the sound of the bugle's last re-
veilIe.
Father and husband, sweetheart and son.
Forth they went faithfully, one by one,
~Out-numberod sons of the hard pressed South,
Slaughtered like sheep at the cannon's mouth
Pick and pride of the gallantest race
That ever bore sons on the beautiful face
OF Il beanteous earth They are deathless,
though dead,
For a white ImlnortelIe marks each glory
crowned head.
Not the scum and refuse of a nation were
they.
Our soldiers who fought in the ranks of the
gray
No paid 'tsubstitutcs" or adventurous bold,
Fighting for booty, promotion and gold
But the salt of the earth, and the pride of
the land!
Noble Of lineage, dainty OF hand,
Tender of hcArt,-and heroes by birth.
Tho brtvcst and purest that ever trod earth
Not many have liyed-or have falIon-as they,
Though hard was their duty and brief was
their day,
They carved them Il record uncoualed in
fame:
They made for themselves and for Dixie q
name.
Cover their graves with the blossoms above
Herald their deeds on the banners of love
Sing them and ring them in story and song,
AS long as the old world goes swinging along!

According to Judge Billings, of the United

very justly, that labor strikes are Unlawful

Billings opinion on this point can Be
questioned, not even by those who iuaugurate
strikes. The suspension of in a
large city like New Orleans, by whatever
cause, necessarily works a hardship upon
of Federal statutes. Workingmen have an
undisputed right to engage in a strike, but
whenever, by violence, they seek to prevent
others from working in their places, they are
an unlawful combination in restraint of
trade, and as such amenable to the penal
laws.-New Orleans Herald.
