Oh, the rain-song OF tho robin How It thrill
my heart to hear
The rain-song of the robin in the summer {
the yearl
How long for wings to join him where h
carol poureth free,
And for words to beg the secret Of his magi
minstrelsy?
Does he sing because he revels in the fury
the storm?
In the thunder and the lightning does he I'm
a hidden charm?
Or with prophet eye, enraptured, does he g
the darkness past,
And the beauty which shall blossom when Il
clouds disperse at last
When Thy rain on me descendeth, and TIL
clouds about me roll,
Grant, o God, the power of singing to nj
tempest-shaken SOUL
May sos Thy mercy shining far behind q
outer gloom
May heag Thy angels chantingl May ! 81
Thy lilies bloom!

PARTY INTEGRITY INVOLVED.

The democrats of Terrell should not
need 70 be reminded Of the fact that we
are nearing the congressional election,
in which the integrity of the party IN
this county is vitality involved.
Until the recent election Terrell coun-
ty had the distinction of being the ban
ner democratic county in the second con-
gressional district. Shall that position
he regained in November? The popu-
lists Of the county, encouraged by the
surprisingly large vote polled for their
ticket two weeks ago, are actively at
work and. with seeming confidence, as
sert that the majority will be on their
side when the votes are counted next
month. Would it not be day OF re-
nroacb for the democratic party here?
The danger should nerve every demo-
GRAFT 70 renewed loyalty and increased
enthusiasm. When the people in other
counties of the district, in their calcula-
ton, begin to look doubtfully at Terrell
and talk about democratic losses and
populist gains it is time for us at home
to think about the matter seriously.
Will Terrell county vote for populist
candidate next m, nth? Would it not be
stigma on the organization in the
county? Let every democrat make an
honest and earnest effort to avert such a
political calamity. That done, Terrell
county will proudly roll up her usual
majority at the approaching election for
the party pledged to safe and economi-
cal government.
