4 DAYS LESSON

Bend TO the breeze. TITS the lesson the grasses
Teach us each day in their lowly estate.
Better to bend meath the storm as It passes
Than to be broken by pitiless fate.
Bend but little, the cloud will pass over;
Then In the lull you can lift up your head.
Straighten yourselves like the grass and the
clover;
Better be bruised and be living than dead.
Stand like rockl' That may do for a hero
Covered with mail and well used to his lance,
But there are mortals, too many, as we know,
Weakened by failure, coerced by a glance.
Never give up" 1t is easy to say It
When all your weapons In order are found.
Courage grows fast when We need not dis
play 1t;
All can be brave when the lions are bound.
Nothing succeeds like success" that is GER
tain,
True as the gospel In these latter days.
Put out the footlights and ring down the cur
tain
II you have nothing that people must praise.
Bend to the breeze. 'Tis the lesson the grasses
Teach us today; tits a lesson OF love;
Bend till the storm of adversely passes
And the glad sunshine Is once more above.

Mr.. Wilson replied with spirit that he
would not answer Mr.. Reeds seedlings"
He would say THAI Sthis work of reforming
the tariff would never cease until the hold
of the monopoly was taken. This remark
was greeted with great enthusiasm.
81 am glad to have brought you to the
surface and got an admission, said Mr..
Reed, land knowing what you will try to
do the American people will never trust
you again"
Messrs. Hopkins and Gear spoke against
the bill and Coombs for it. The latter
said that the house could not afford to let
the senate adiourn--if the session lasted
until September-until these bills were
passed.
The vote to place barbed wire on, the
free list was: Yeas, 1877; nays, "a.
The bill for free iron ore was promptly
passed by n vote of 1853 to 102.

ported Mr.. Robertson na.) offered an
amendment reducing the bounties on
sugar one-eighth, yearly, from July !.
1895, to July l, 1901.

of sugar amid great confusion, claiming
in refutation of the statement that the
senate bill gave the trust greater protec-
tion than the Mckinley law that the
trust had received nearly s7S,0oo, 600 dur
ing the three yeurs and three months the
Mckinley law had been in operation. Mr.
Dingley (Me) followed.
Mr.. Price Ia.) said he would ask for

turists threatened with destruction. II

! least to leave the bounty this year.
Mr.. Boatner (La.) said that bounty waa
a legal obligation for this year
Mr.. Reed (Me) spoke Of the bill as the
last of the air cushions the statesmen of
this little kingdom Of liliputs had ar
ranged for themselves to fall on reminded
Louisiana that the Republican party
would have given them the protection
they needed and asserted that the Demo-
Gratis had so beclouded the question with
corruption that it could not be dealt with
honestly by Others without incurrlng sus-
picion.
Mr.. Wilson concluded the discussion,
charging that the Republican party was
responsible for the creation of the sugar
trust and the power it had manifested in
in this contest. He expressed sympathy
with the Louisiana men, saying that he
had always believed in revenue tax on
sugar, that the agriculturists were well
come to the incidental protection there
from, and he stood ready to cooperate
with his colleagues in giving revenue
tax.
The yeas and nays were then ordered,
the Republicans joining with the Demo-
Gratis in voting for the free sugar bill. 1t
was passed by vote of 27G to IL.
This was the largest yea and nay vote
ever cast in the house of representatives.
