The Fun That Adam Missed.
From the New Moon.

From the New Moon.
That Adam was lonely man
I'm ready TO believe,
Although his many days were blest
With nature fairest Eve;
BY maiden aunts and cousins fair
The man was never kissed,
And thus / often think about
The fun that Adam missed.
1t seems to me his life was like
An Oft-repeated dream:
He never treated girls and paid
Three dollars for ice cream;
He never when a lite BOY,
BY grOWn-up girls was kissed;
And when he died he never knew
The fun that he had missed.
He never went security
And had the note to pay:
He never saw his bank cashier
steal gracefully away:
In all his life he never by
A Mother-ln-iaw was kissed
But why 90 on and 'numerate
The fun that Adam missed?
Perhaps, if he were living now
But, then, why speculate?
He'd be too old and not inclined
To play with tickle fate.
For centuries the wanton winds
His unknown grave have kissed;
Perhaps he sleeps the better for
The fun that he has missed.

When the state convention meets there
will be lots of delegates in attendance
who will wish their hands were not tied
by instructions, many of them secured
through interested parties behind the
scenes. In the present situation of af-
fairs, the very best thing that could occur
for the democracy would be for a major
ity of the DELEGATES to go to the conven-
tion uninstructed. Delegates who are

Election of Senators.

The agitation in favor of electing seua-
tors by the direct vote of the people,
which has been going on in mild sort of
way for several years, promises to bear
fruit in the near future. The House com
miJtee on the election of President and
Vice President has agreed to report bill
providing for the election of senators in
that way. 70
1t is not clear that the proposed changes
would result in getting ADLER men for
senators. Pretty much the same sort of
men who now compose the Senate would
be sent there if the proposed change in
the method of election were made. The
candidates would be chosen by
the conventions of their re-
spective parties instead of by
party caucuses of the legislature. 1t is
true that if one party named a very
worthy man and another party an IN
worthy or less able one, the people would
have chance to choose the most deserv-
ing one, but, as rule the voters would
stuck pretty close to the nominations of
their respective parties.
Il is thought probably that rich men
who have little else than their riches to
recommend them, would stand very little
chance Of getting to the Senate if sena-
tors were chosen directly by the people.
And ct riches would be about as potent
in a nominating convention as in a party
caucus.
However, the drift of public sentiment
seems to be in the direction of the pro-
posed change. Whether it would prove
beneficial or not cannot be determined ex-
cept by giving it a trial

A Novel Temperance Scheme.

The temperance people of Haverhill,
Mass, having failed in their efforts to Sc
cure a prohibition law, have hit upon
novel and interesting plan to fight the sa-
looms.
At the last municipal election the sa-
looms won, but the temperance people
have managed to secure a high license
ordinance, with the aid of which they
hope to freeze out the saloons The Ii
cense fee is $4,000 year, and saloon
must necessarily make good profits in or
der to be able to pay the fee. There are
twenty-six licensed saloons in the place
The temperance people, having deter
mined upon the freeze out,'' are prepar-
ing saloon of palatial design wherein they
will sell liquor at a minimum rate of
cost Whisky will be retailed at cents
drink, or less, if a good article can be
procured for less, and beer will be sold at
elegant saloon, the superior quality of the
liquors sold and the very low prices will
attract the custom from the men who are
in the business for money, and they will
be obliged to close their doors and quit.
When this shall have come about the
temperance people will close their saloon
and the town will be left dry. The tenn
perance- shop, however, will be kept al
ways stocked and ready to be reopeneo at
a moments notice in case the saloons
should be revived.
The scheme is very good thing-for
the thirsty souls within radius of ten
miles of Haverhill. With hot summer
coming on, there is robably no prospect
that would afford the frequenters of the
Haverhill saloons more qualification than
that of having ice cold beer at 2 cents a
glass during the heated period. From
the standpoint of an impartial observer,
however, it does not appear how the tenn
perance people can hope to stamp out the
liquor traffic through augmenting both
the sale of and taste for liquors.

- Chief Clerk Renick, the Georgian
recently elevated to very important
position in the state department at Wash
intion, the other day stirred up his cleri-
cal force in order to ascertain what they
knew of the modern languages and how
well equipped they were to take care of
whatever correspondence in a foreign
tongue might require their attention. He
found there were sixty-one of the clerks
who ranged all the way from two Ian
g1ages to ten apiece, and two Others went
two languages better than that. Twenty
two of the number could translate from
the French, eleven from the Spanish. ten
from the German and so on. The two poly
glots included English, French German.
Spanish, Italian, Russian, Portuguese,
Swedish, Danish, Hebrew and Modern
Greek in their vocabularies, and two
other experts translated freely from the
Chinese. japanese and Coreau. 1t would
appear therefore, that Mr.. Renick, who
speaks Georgian fiUeutly, and his force Of
clerks are entirely competent to care for
any state papers that need translation.

The way things have been going in the
sugar trust investigation at Washington
brings to mind an old story of Gen. Grant.
One day Grant, in conversation with one
of the several Washington correspondents
who had attained to prominence through
their treatment of public matters in the
press, told some political secrets that,
if published, would have created a pro-
found sensation from one end of the coun-
try to the other. The general had given
no intimation to the correspondent that
the conversation was strictly confidential
Suppose were to print what you have
told me, general" said the newspaper man
at the end of the talk. IF you should q"
coolly replied Grant, ~ would deny that
| ever said word of it."

did not move the commander; he wanted

buy him off than TO drive him off, so they
made up his price and gave it to him.

ONE SPEAKING WITH AUTHORITY,

We are permitted to make the
following extract from a private
letter Of a distinguished United
States Senator.
81 have read with the greatest
interest your letter dated March
so, 1894, respecting the situation
in Hawaii. It has given to me a
much clearer idea than [ had been
able to obtain from the diffuse and
contradictory statements in the
newspapers. Nothing can be more
certain than that the Provisional
Government will not be interfered
with any further by the present
Administration. This is so, no
matter what may be said to the
contrary. Any expectations of such
action by the friends of the queen
are. entirely baseless. That the
Islands will be annexed is only a
question of time. l do not regard
it as improbable that it will be con-
summated during the present Ad-
ministration, in spite ofall that has
taken place. Nor need there be
any apprehension on the part of
the residents of the Islands, who
are of American birth or parentage,
that any foreign power, particular
ly England, will be allowed to
acquire Hawaii"
The above statements are not
made from any party standpoint.
They express the concurring view
of Republicans and Democrats
throughout the land, with possibly
very few exceptions among the
members of the party last named.
