Christmas In Calcutta.

The sun shines gloriously overhead,
the sky is pale, cloudless blue, and the
foliage around US shows every shade and
tint from brown to scarlet, from the
palest to the deepest green. We saun-
ter along the grass under the trees be-
side the avenue and find a quiet spot,
with a pool of clear water haunted by
swans, before US. The ground is car
peted with soft grass and shaded with
trees. On one side, 800 yards away, is
a bank of shrubs with the most gorgeous
variety of coloring from mauve and Ii
lac to crimson red; on the other three,
cool, restful green leaves. On such a
Christmas morning it is good to be alive.
Let Us think of it as we shiver over
our fires in England. We spread our
rugs and coats on the ground and lie
down and smoke laziiy. Presently the
kh1dmutgars arrive with hampers. We
do not move, for in India we have not
that irrational and idiotic notion that a
picnic Is no picnic unless you wait upon
yourselves, lay your own lunch and burn
your own fingers over your kettle. The
lunch is admirable, from the solids to
the fruit, from the drinks to the ice.
Nothing has been forgotten, for once a
khidmutgar has been taught thing
he may be relied upon to do it again
with absolute exactitude on similar
occasion till the crack of doom unless
he is idiotic.
a picnic is a complete rest, with
nothing to do save to lie still and enjoy.
No one even talks unless the spirit
moves him. For the most part we sit
quiet, drinking in the beauty of the
scene. The servants pass silently to and
Ho, handing dishes, which are accepted
or rejected as silently. It is waste of
energy to speak. The cool breeze fans
US gently. There are no mosquitoes. All
is peace. Last of all come the coffee
and the cigars. Saturday Review.

Deep in the moving depths

Deep In the moving depths
OF yellow wine
Iswore I'd drown your face,
Oh, love Of minel
AL clad in yellow hue,
So fair to see,
You crouched within my cup
And laughed at me.
Twice DER learned page
I turned and tossed,
For could not forget
The love I lost.
AL stern and robed in gloom,
You read it too.
Icould not see the Words
Saw only you.
Within the hungry chase
thought to kill
You, love. who haunted thus
Without my Will,
But in the gentle gaze
Of fawn and deer .-
Your eyes disarmed my hand
And shook my spear.
Beneath a maids dark lash
1swore you'd drown
Sink in the laughing blue,
Give in, go down.
But, no! While bathing there
Right joyously,
Out from her liquid eyes
You laughed at me.

Hurrying home as the daylight dies,
Goes the weary, toiling throng
Some where joyous welcome lies,
Children's prattle and jocund song:
Others who know but . lonely room,
Cherries hearth and q tasteless fare,
Hurrying home In the deep'ning gloom.
Some with their joy and some their care.
Hurrying home as the years roll By,
Onward moves the worlds great throng.
Some to discover their resting nigh,
Others the way both hard and long:
So1ae by the beacon of faith are led
Trustingly over the path they roam:
Some In the gloom of mystic dread.
All Of them, all of them hurrying home.

THEY LOVE ,EM SO.

The republicans oi this city are terribly
worried for fear the democrats will not
nominate county ticket, and some Of
them are button-holing every democrat
they can see, urging them by all means
TO hold county convention and nomin-
ate a straight ticket. 1t does beat all
how deeply interested these republicans
are in the success of the democratic par
ty- OF course they are not doing this to
help their own party. Oh no! They are
such disinterested set of political phil
antropists that they would not for the
world advise democrats TO do anything
that would jeopardise their success at
the polls! Not much Mary Ann, They
want democrots to get to the front-to
clean out the reps-mop the earth with
the e. o, p.-anything to beat the pops,
you know. As for their own party sue
cess they care not a fig. but it is the dear
democrats they are anxious about now,
you bet. And this anxiety is so disinter-
ested-so pathetic and fatherly-that
they can scarcely keep from falling on
the necks Of their good democratic broth
ers. and weeping long and loud in their
between sobs, for straight
democratic ticket. Ye Gods! What
spectacle for the deciples OF the grand
old party.-Yankton Telegram.

HEW TO THE LxNE.

The<Tlmes believes it to be the worst
of folly for our houored repu blican con.
temporares in the state to attempt Ia
deceive the people by pretending that the
financial plank adopted by the recent re:
publican state convention declares for
the coinage of silver to the extent Of the
American product, or 1'to the extent of
the entire American product" as some
put 1t. 1t is not true. The false position
in which the republican party of South
Dakota is placed by the state convention,
though weakening. cannot be strength
ened by falsehood. No, the convention
has placed the republican party of South
Dakota on the English single gold stan
dard advocated by Cleveland and Shcr-
man. and. Notwithstanding that it will
cost us thousands Of good republican
votes, the campaign must be fought on
that line, and the quicker the boys
realize that our state convention has laid
out the ground for the hardest fight re-
publicans ever had in South Dakota, the
better. Buckle on your armor and grid
we'll your lions for the fight. "boys." and
be prepared to die. if necessary, in the
last ditch with your boots on. 1t will
come pretty hard for some of US fellows
to hurrah for Cleveland, John Sherman
and the English single gold standard.
which has pauperized the masses of
Europe and is rapidly pauperizing the
masses of America. but the platform of
a party is its banner, its bulwark and Its
breast-piate. and cannot be cast aside by,
loyal republicans. No ineed! While it
is sound republican doctrine that the
names of bac men can be scratched from
the ticket, the platform cannot be bolted
without serving party ties. Remember
the words of our illustrious young lead
err who made the temporary speech" at
the recent republican state convention,
we have ''but u single object in view,
namely, the good of the republican
party" and hew boldly to the platform
line in the interest of old England 1t
will be stronger position than to fool
ishly attempt to hoodwink the people by
falschood. d.-Faulkton Times, R"p.)

TAKE HIM CAL.
The Sioux Falls Press says editorially

The Sioux Falls Press says editorially
in late issue: ..
''As one of the results of the recent
attempts at forcing cohabtation of the
democracy of this county with the pop
ulists, the Dakota Stats Zeitung, a
German paper which for nine years has
espoused the cause of democracy, has
quit that party ANA enlisted in behalf of
dates like Cotton and Meredith are foist-
German will scarcely feel that he has
much in sympathy with such a ticket.
The Staats Zeitung has large list of
subscribers in Minnehaha. McCook and
Turner counties and its support of the
republican ticket will have large influence
with the German voters thereof. The
Press very cordially welcomes the new
helper in the work which is going for
ward so satisfactorily.
The editor and proprietor of the
Zeitung is Peter f. Haas Mr.. Haas was
republican postmaster at Lennox, S. D.,
under Harrlson's appointment and was
removed for cause, He was later indicted
oy the United States grand jury for ir-
regularltes while in Office. Two years
ago his paper advocated the election Of
the republican ticket in this county. Mr..
Haas Joined the republican club when it
was organized, and his name was printed
in the list of members, by the Press, be-
fore the fusion complained of took place,
so that the Press knew it was delibera-
tely misrepresenting the facts. Haas was
a delegate to the last republican county
convention and was also delegate to the
republican state convention recently held
at Yankton-and both Of these events
took place before the fusion. which is
now paraded as the cause of Mr.. Haas
''desertion' from the democratic ranks.
Warner Raabe, who is Il representative
German, and reader of Mr.. Haas pa
per, tells the Argus-Leader that Mr.. Haas
never has been a democrat: that his
opinions have been offered for sale at so
much per line, and that it is an insult to
the Germans to claim that Haas wields
any influence over them.-Argus-Lea

THE PLATFORM FRAUD.

The republican party o: South Dakota,
as represented by its state convention at
Yankton, not Only refuses to demand the
equally free and unrestricted coinage of
silver and gold and the use Of both silver
and gold as standard money. but practic-
ally indorses the English single gold
standard policy of Cleveland and Sher-
man. Not even the terms ':free coinage"
or standard money" can be found in the
entire length and breadth ofthe platform.
This is to be deeply regretted AS it will
cost us thousands of votes. Let the re-
sponsibility rest where it belongs-with
the republican convention
