A Post OMce PIafnf.
No letter yeti o, horried newsl
Enough to give a saint the blues,
To think that every coming mall
Has brought the same distressing tale.
No letter yeti You said you'd write,
But now I'm out of mind" and ''sightj~
For all these weeks you've sent no line
To cheer this anxious heart Of mine.
No letter yet! My hopes each day
Are quickly banished by dismay;
And oh, my heart, 1t hutters so
Whene'er the postman tells me no.
No letter yeti Oh, pray, relent,
And Of your negligence repent!
Oh, do, in future serve me better,
And cheer me quickly with a letter.

ragged, and a girls knitted cap was perch

through the thicket into the glade the lad

tariff under the Mckinley bill dimiu-

which is worn and used by the poor
is taxed at much higher percentage
than the dearer cloth of the same
kind, which is worn by the rich;
while under the senate bill the plan
of taxation is reversed, so that the
lowest percentage falls upon the
cheaper goods, and the highest per

Carried off the Safe.

Mascoutah Ill. Sept. e The ut
tie town of New Memphis seven
miles east of here, in Clinton county,
in state of excitement to day over
the work of bold gang of robbers s
at that place last night. After rifilng
the store OF Wm. Niemeyer the burg
lars removed large iron safe from
store of VIM. Peters and placed it in
the road for the purpose Of blowing
it open with dynamite. While the
safe blowers were at work preparing
for the explosion Louis kraus, a
young farmer, came to town for a
doctor. Kraus was unaware Of the
presence of the robbers until they
opened fire at close range. Two
bullets cut through his clothing but
fortunately he was noti lured. The
reports of the shots and cries Of the
farmer aroused the inhabitants o.
| the town. In the excitement the
robbers escaped.

The Times Campaign Rates.

In order that no citizen of the
Southwest may have an excuse for
not being posted on the develop
ments of the Interesting political
campaign which is just opening,
The Times has made a special CAM
paign rate of S1.60 for the daily and
Sunday paper, and % cents for The
Twice A Week Times until January
l. While The Times is an earnest
and fearless supporter of Democratic
principles, it is, aud always has been,
liberal enough to open its columns
to representatives of different politi
cal opinions for the discussion of
their views. In the columns OF The
Times the important news of the
campaign of 1894 will be set forth
fully and fairly. Its news facilities
are unequalled by those of any other
newspaper published in the South
west At the prices made either the
daily or the Twice a-Week edition
should be in the hands of every man
who holds to those economic princi-
pies for the success of which tile.
people OF the West are conteudaug.
Liberal terms to agents and post
masters. Sample copies free.

Catfish Caught IN Hollow Logs.

Monticello, Ill. Sept. 5.-Heavy
rain has fallen in Piott County Al d
throughout Central Illinois for the
last twenty-four hours, which has
been of great bsneht to tue farmers
and improved the pastures and all
growing crops. The wells and all
the streams are very low. The San

are catching all the large catfish
without much effort. Many catfish
weighing 40 pounds were caught IL
large hollow logs where they had

The people OF this state ought 10
require every candidate for the legis-
lature to express himself on the
question of reforming the criminal
costs Of the state When the legisla-
ture assemblies in January there vii!
be deficiency in the criminal costs
OF something ike 100000. in spite
Of the fact that two years ago $780,
900 was appropriated for this item
alone. The iails over the state are
full OF untried murderers who secure
continuances just about as often as
they desire. 1t is time men who ex
pee. to come to Jefferson City next
winter were informing themselves in
regard to the pressing necessity of
reforming the criminal laws so that
the burden of criminal costs will be
lessened and the laws more rip,dIy
enforced Men who will not inform
themselves Oh this matter ought not
to be elected to the l-gisIature.-
