The SONG OF THE SINGING SANDS.


A little. little cot for me.
A cabin on the grassy steep,
Where sweet winds from the Hesper sea
Hold secrets that long 10 keep.
Oh, not upon these later heights
May every joy eyade my hand.
ThrO' lonely days and lonelier nights
Along the shifting. singing sand;
Yet. would not. as sands that sing
Lose one lone song thro' iourneying.
Ga. haste ye breezes light that roam.
And be my fleet foot messengersi
Tell me il children coming home,
Long wandering meath the western frs,
In your returning currents bear
A blessing tho they wake or sleep:
Bring me dream Of golden hair,
Recalled at morn tho should weep.
And leave to me in newer lands
The mystery Of the singing sands.
Here, would have my window be
A beacon whaie'er tide may turn:
A lamp upon life's wind blown sea
Where mem'ry's torches ever burn:
The altar fire Of early loves
Within whose my site mother shrine
Are treasured yet those white winged
doves
Such cOoing doves, and they were mine.
Tho strong tosmite, 0h.winis that moan.
Mas singing sands dwell in your tone.

THE MOST FERTILE SOIL In
AMERICA.

What is there in this Alberta, through
which the Canadian Pacific Railway
runs, that il should draw trainloads Of
settlers and settlers effects from Idaho,
Washington and Oregon? The mos,

This Valley Of the Saskatchewan seems
to have been rediscovered Of late by
some Washington and Idaho men, who
kept things dark until they and their
friends had secured locations immediate
ly around the few depots already erected
when the line was opened. Then they
sent word OF what they had found, and
their friends are going in by the score.
The country, they say, is large and good
throughout, and new stations are prom
ised as settlement requires them. Then
Maine, Michigan and Vermont caught
on, and sent up delegates to spy out the
land and report. They gave practical
answer. They wrote, saying they had
examined the country, had selected To-
cations and were coming home to sell
the old place and 90 where it was worth
while farming. The grain and vegetables
they saw cannot be- excelled in North
America, and can be equRled in very few
parts. The cattle, horses and sheep
were rolling fat and standing up to their
knees in rich native grasses. Why was
this not all known before7 Because for
generations only the Hudson Bay Com
pany knew it, and they wanted no set
tiers in their fur country; and when
they lost hold Of it there was no way Of
getting to it. Now two branches OF the
Canadian Pacific Railway run through
the richest parts Of it.

Mr.. R. F. Kidd, Of Gilmer county,
springs suddenly into prominence with
his great and only unrivalled act Of rid
ing two horses at one time. Mr.. Kidd
shared the average West Virginia Dem.
ocrRts ambition to render President
Cleveland what assistance he may in
operating the governmental machine.
After looking tho field over no con.
cluded that the United States district
altornoyship was about his size. ThOn
he took another look ind saw that he
was fated to fail.
Ho wrote letter to the President
urging the appointment OF Mr.. Watts,
OF Kanawha, because tho whole Ropub.
iican party is supposed to DO fighting
Mr.. Watts, and further because his
cause has become the cause OF tho West
Virginia Democracy, which is "thor.
oughly aroused and deeply interested
in his behalf" Tho letter is on flo and
clinchea this part oil MIR. hidds inter
esting performance.
Not content with this lofty net Mr..
Kidd with other West virginians &c.
Companiod Mr.J. B. Sommorvillo, OF Ohio
county, to tho white house and in tho
presence OF tho President and tho as.
semblcd company endorsed Mr.. Som.
mervillc for the United States district
attorneyship. Mr. Sommcrville says
that Mr.. Kidd criticised Mr.. Watts and
otherwise expressed desire for his
defeat.
wo do not know that NIL this or any
OF it will embarass Mr.. Kidd. lie may
enjoy the situation since it makci it
impossible for anybody to know where
le stands OH tho district attornoyship
aud keeps them all guessing.
The letter and tho visit to tho Prcsi-
dent, the ono endorsing Mr.. Watts and
the other recommending Mr.. sommer-
willie, do not present an exact harmony
of color, 1t may DO that somebody in
Washington hypnotizod Mr. Kidd.
Now that Col. Shepard is gone tho
