Mother at Fifty.
Dune q, 1882

tJune y, 1881
Mother, dearest of all womeni
Sweetest name to me- and best
Of all the noble millions of whom
God hath our earth so richly blest
With conscious, deeply conscious weaknei IS
Dumb, it seems to speak your worth;
But with love that knows no limit
Makes YOU fairest of all the earth,
A son. devoted, proud and tender.
Would lift his voice in humble lay,
To mark with plain but loving tablet.
Your monument on this birthday.
Throned this semi-centennal
on a pyramid of love.
Dispensing with hand so gracious
Like unto the Hand above;
This century, SO rich in wonders
And beauty's vast array,
VIII not view = sWoetcf picture
Than my mother makes today.
Woman fair ana woman lofty,
Woman simple. pure and plain.
With her children gath'ring round her,
Enshrining fondly her sweet name,
And her husband ever trusting
TIL loving heart he's known 50 we'll
Things of business and Of pleasure
Naught fears he his wife to tell;
Tor with heart of deep affection
And with mind that understands
She refresheS his whole being
And llnholds his struggling hands.
When I've seen her love SO constant,
Sacrificing for her home,
I hay. thought ma-oh! how often,
If the time should ever come
When I'll have a wife-companion-
III he satisfied, and more.
If she's only such q woman
As my mother. bending Ger
The little narrow bed where lieth
Her stricken, frail, helpless child
With her words of balm 50 soothing
To his lonGingS glad and Wlld.
With YOUR economic teachings,
With your prayers and with Your tears
@. my mother, what a treasure
You have been TO US these years!
Not q queen" no, not my mother
Shes not regal tho she's far,
But a more than qUeenly jewel
In her heart is shining theSSr
And her face so pure and Noble,
Fair as beaming, southern moon
CLOVIS in sweet and tender brightness
Like these sunny days of June
Mother, my muses. Inspiration
Hear your fond and happy son;
You are still to me more beautiful
Than the golden beams OF morn
Tho the years have piled upon you,
And here and there's a thread OF gray
q'hev but speak the morn now dawning
OF your bright eternal day.
Mother. dearest of all women
Cod upon you ever smile,
Beam your sweet face on this tribute
From YOUR loving grateful child

Double Set Of Trustees.

The scheme Of the managers OF
the republican campaign To have
two sets Of township trustees and
assessors elected this fall has not
met with much encouragement, and
the enterprising project will no
doubt fall Of its own weight.
Township officers at present hold
ing Office were elected in April, and
their terms OF office expire ten days
after the November election, if their
successors have been elected and
have qualified at that time. II not,
they hold office until their success
ors have duly qualified.
The last Legislature passed law
changing the election Of township
officers from April to November
when the general election Is held
and this condition has generated il
the fertile brains of some Of the re-
publican campaign managers tn
idea Of electing two sets Of township
officers, one to hold office until mex
August, when the newly-elccted OF
ficers take their seats, and II othe
long term set to hold office for lou
wears under the law. Efforts hay
been made to have the Democrat
state committee agree to this doub.
election.

posed to the idea and says there
no necessity for such proceeding
as the present officers hold over III
