We were walking together one summers day.
My dearest friend and /
ION sweet cOmpaniOnship, who can tell
Thy pleasures or who denyD
Her grace and beauty her gentle way.
Still held me securely oUnd
As firmly to her as when long ago
first this jewel found.
The day was bright and warm and fair.
The air was sweet with flowers.
But nothing compared in its sweetness there
With this precious love OF ours.
Her hair was as bright as the sunshnes
gold
Her eyes like the heavens blue:
In her breast there ne stled a few sweet
flowers.
Sweeter there than where they grew.
As we rambled on We were not unobserved;
For strange sight met my eye
Ahumming bird lit on a rose on her brelst
And drank with eXtacy
OF the sweets hidden deep, mid the sweet rose
leaves;
oThen raising its pretty head
For moment it looked in my loved ones
Then the fragile wings were spread.
And it seemed to me that these quiverlng
wings
Beat faster than usual the air
Keeping time suppose with the dear little
THAT was your dong. my dear)
And the bird was gone, full of sweets from
the flowers
And happy, having laid on her breast;
And read a lesson need not tell,
For you surely can guess the rest.
4
Was some spirit disguised in the form Of the
bird,
With message sent from above
From heaven, by the bird, through the rose
to her heart
A message Of promise and love?
Or was it simply thirsty, tired bird
Seeking for sweets and rest?
In either event it found what it sought
In the flowers and my darling's breast
Should I grudge the bird its sweet resting
place
Or the spirit the part it played
No, for it may have said something sweet of
me,
While close to her heart it laid.

aov. Tillman as a Humorist.

Gov. Tillmau. of South Carolina, must be
seeking a reputation as humorist. The
reasons he gives in his statement, pub
lished in the MORNING News yesterday,
why capital and immigration are giving
his state a wide berth are certainly very
funny. His purpose is TO create the i'm
preston that the POLITICAL faction opposed
70 him is responsible for the ill-repute
into which the credit of the state has
fallen. According to his view the injuri-
Gus reports respecting the state would
not have gone abroad if the military com
panies Of Columbia and Charleston had
not refused 10 obey his orders. The
action Of those companies, he says, was
the basis Of the impression that the state
was on the verge Of civil war.
AS matter of fact ii is
the very general belief that the troops
are called out only when a condition of
affairs exists with which the civil au-
thorities are unable to cope. When Gov.
TiIlman began ordering out companies
and brigades he notified the whole world
that, in his opinion, the civil authority
was unable to quell the disturbance that
existed. The refusal OF the military Of
Columbia and Charleston 10 respond to
his call did not change the impression
that had already been made uron the
public
The governor will not succeed in shift
ing the responsibility for the injury done
the credit Of the state by his effort to
place it unon recalcitraut military com
panies, and his attempts to do so will
only excite amusement.
His purpose, however, is MOTTO be anus
ing He is in deadly earnest, and. there
fore, he must be regarded as a humorist
who is unconscious Of his powers in that
character.
There are excellent reasons for saying
that there never was occasion for calling
out the military. The companies that
responded to the governors call did not
find at Darlington or elsewhere any pur
pose to resist the civil authorities.
The state was put to an expense of 500
900 or S25, 900, and the states material in
terests were injured to an immense
amount, and for what reason3 Is the
governor able to show that there was
ever any intention to resist the civil au-
thorities? He may say that he was salts
fed that there was a purpose to resist the
enforcement of the law, but until there
was such resistance was he justified in
publishing to the world that there was an
instruction and in turning the state into
a military camp2
The governor is responsible for the in
jury done to the states credit. South
Carolina securities have suffered depre-
citation and capital is avoiding the state
not because a few military companies re-
fused to take part in a war which had ex-
istence only in the governors mind, but
because there is general distrust of the
governor. There is fear that he will
bring about a condition of affairs that will
make life and property In the state I'M
safe
Pretty much the same feeling exists in
respect to Colorado and Kansas where
populist governors have succeeded in ar
raging one class against another and play
ing the mischief generally.

Gov. Northen calls things by their right
names when he speaks of the lynching of
Don Ahren as his abduction and muir
der" The conditions which led to the
lynching do not change the legal aspect of
the case. The prenfeditated killing of the
man without lawful warrant was murder,
no matter what the charge was against
him. There was a law to cover Don
Ahren's offense; by disregarding it and
taking his life his slayers made them
selves amenable to a law which covers
their offense, and which the governor has
sworn to uphold.

Rosebery's Government.

The prospect is that the Rosebery gov
eminent will not last much longer. 1t
would have been defeated on Monday
night had not the radicals extended it a
helping hand. Twice recently it has been
in the minority upon measures which it
favored, but which were not government
measures. Its majority has steadily
dwindled since Lord Rosebery became
prime minister, and it is confidently ex-
pected that in the near future il will be
outvoted upon a distinctly government
bill.
Lord Rosebery does not seem to be
much alarmed at the prospect of defeat.
1t is understood that he holds the opinion
that should parliament be dissolved, and
an appeal be made to the country, a
liberal majority would be again returned.
Indeed, he is confident that the liberal
majority would be larger than it is at
present because, according to his view,
public sentiment in England is steadily
becoming more favorable to home rule
and the liberal platform.
Since Lord Rosebery has been minister
there have been seven by-elections. They
have not shown any marked changes in
public sentiment. In some localities the
liberals lost ground and in others they
gained, their gains being slightly greater
than their losses.
No one can predict, however, with any
degree of certainty what the courseof the
Irish members will be. The Irish are get
ting tired of waiting for home
rule and there is movement
to unite the Irish members under one
leader and pursue the course adopted by
Mr. Parnell when he was looked upon as
the Irish leader. In that event the Irish
members would hold aloof from either of
the great parties, and would unite with
the party that promises the more desira-
BILE legislation for Ireland.
The liberal newspapers pretend to
think that immediate danger to the gov
eminent has disappeared. That is not
the opinion. however, Of those who are in
charge of the liberal forces. The danger.
instead of disappearing, is becoming more
imminent

CoXey and his army are now travelling
over a turnpike that is under control of
the state of Pennsylvania. At intervals
of fourteen miles throughout the length
of the road, which extends to the state
line, there are toll gates. A legal opinion
has been rendered to the effect that the
army is civic body, and is therefore
liable to tolls. The army struck the first
toll gate near Brownsville ard found a
woman in charge. She demanded toll be-

Senator Mcpherson made a telling
point against the proposition TO have this
government coin Mexican dollars for for
eign trade when that matter was before
the Senate on Monday He recalled the
history of the issue of trade dollars" for
expectation to Climate fill just such a
want as it is alleged the proposed coinage
is to fill. The trade dollars, as is well
remembered, got largely into the home
circulation, Notwithstanding it was a
com without legal tender value and
would be received only at discount for
purchases. And it was the poor people
and unsuspecting workingmen who suf-
Tered from the difference of value. Trade
dollars were pushed of on them az par
ana they were forced to get rid of them
at the best price they could. No power
was equal then to keeping the inferior
money out Of our own peoples hands. and
the senator predicted that similar re.
suits would follow the coinage of Next
can dollars in American minis for exports.

Gov. Tillman's statement regarding the
effect Of recent occurrences in South
Carolina upon the states credit with out
side investors, is apt to leave an unfayor-
able impression on their minds Accord
ing to his statement the arms of the dis
banded military companies will soon be
in the hands of faithful men, who will re-
spond always promptly to the call of duty.
Back of these is a reserve force of thou-
sands of citizens, volunteer companies al
ready organized and armed with shot
guns ready to move when called on. :,
This would seem to indicate the cover
nor's opinion to be that only the presence
of large armed force-a standing army.
so to speak-will suffice to maintain the
peace in South Carolina. 1t is hardly
probable the governor meant that. how
ever, for nothing is further from BEING
correct. One thing that would insure
peace in the state, with or without or
gained state militia, is the retirement of
Gov. Tillman.

Senator Harris, of Tennessee, appears
to have assumed charge of the tariff bill.
and his leadership has been recognized
by the republicans through Senator
Aldrich, their leader. Senator Harris is
regarded as one of the shrewdest and
most capable parliamentarians in the
Senate, while Senator Voorhees,, chair
man of the finance committee, is com
paratively weak in that particular The
change, therefore, is probably for the
better. Senator Harris will not be
caught mapping by his smart opponents,

vote earlier than had been anticipated

indeed, what he charges, they would close
their columns upon him and he would

The supreme court of South Carolina is
a cute little joker. In pursuance of a
formal call for an extra session it con-
vened at Columbia day before yesterday.

until one business day before the time of

laughed heartily. 1t was very amusing.

! Shall the state have railroad commits
sion2 is a question that promises to be an
important factor in Florida politics this
year. The sentiment in favor of com
mission is strong for the reason that it is
believed that commission would cut
down traffic rates.
Railroads in Florida are not as yet pro-
fitable. Some of them, since the dis
covery of phosphate, may mako expenses
and interest on their bonds, but
most of them do little more than
pay expenses. The road that Mr..
Flagler is building to Lake Worth
will not pay expenses inside of ten years
Before it will have any business of conse-
quence the country tributary to it must
be settled and brought under cultivation.
Any considerable reduction in freight
and passenger rates would result in an in
efficient service and would put a stop to
railroad building. The men who have
put money into railroads in Florida have
done so with the belief that the growth
of the country tributary to them would
so increase in wealth and population that
they would eventually make them paying
properties.
The question which the voters will be
called on to decide is whether they will
have a commission and obstruct tho
growth of the state or give the roads a
chance to get on a paying basis by devel-
oping the states resources before taking
charge of them and fixing their rates.
The people ought to ask to have the net
earnings of each of the roads published
for the last year. and for each of a num-
Der of previous years. Having this in
formation they will be in better position
to decide whether or not it is to their in
terest to have railroad commission
