Eight and twenty years have daded
From the calendars Of life.
Since that day when we paraded
TO lay down the flags of strife;
Since the day that Uncle Robert
On the Appomattox field,
Led himself his SHATTERED legionS
To obey their lot and yield.
I shall never lose the picture
OF that grand old chicftain gray,
AS he sadly led the column
Of his hero-knights that day,
For his face was like the yiSage
OF man who quits tomb,
Leaving there his hearts best treasure
bringing out Il lifelong gloom!
Oh. twas such II burning passion
OF chagrn and helpless shame
That was srIrging through and through us,
Though our souls were free from blame.
We had fought them, and the wide world
Knew our faith that we were right.
And that every man among us
Risk'd his honor with his fight!
But the days have been ten thousand
Since that fateful April morn,
And the oil Of peace hath conquer'd--
1t hath heal'd the hearts once torn;
SO | place Il wreath Of honor
On the grave of our Lost Cause"
While | boast my better portion
A new unions light and laws!

Simpsons Plea for the Pretorian..

Our esteemed though sockIess friend. Hon.
jeremiah Simpson, says that if the south had
not tried to secede from the union some thirty
odd years ago we would not now be having
pensions to million people. with anotbas
half million waiting to get on the rolls
That may be more or less true bnt 10 has
nothing to do with the case. If pensions
were war Indemnity levied against tho
south, that might be an argument to iustifv
them; but actually and legally they are moth
ing of the kind. The south pays its share or
them, but as a matter OF fact they nra noid
by the workers of the country, wherever thew
are found. There Is many 4 negro In ths
south going barefoot because his net earnings
must go to meet such enormous burdens az

DakOta,s Great wheatnolds.

A large party Of foreign agricultural
commissioners to the Worlds fair, un-
der the escort of Governor Shortridge Of
North Dakota, saw some harvesting
operations In that great wheat country
q few days ago which must have opened
their eyee, accustomed as they are to the
small acreages Of Europe. Driving
through a vast wheatield bounded only
by the horizon, they beheld as many as
48 Irvine binders moving in a steady pro
cession half o mile long and cutting
great swaths of grain.
They were told by the owner Of this
farm that in harvesting time he cut a
square mile Of grain in a day and EN-
ployed 80 men to shock it up. At noon
the visitors sat down to aprairie chicken
dinner on a mammoth scale, which ex-
cited their surprise almost as much as
the prairie acres on which they gazed.
Afterward they visited the famous
Dalrymple farm, covering "a, 900 acres of
ground, and saw numerous thrashing
machines making their inroads into the
stacks of wheat which it required 100
Irvine binders from two to three weeks
to cut.-New York Post.
