IS IT TRUE?

Down in a dark. damp cellar baby cries for
bread;
A wan-faced wife and mother: pillows the
tiny head
On breast which cold and hunger have rob-
bed of natures store;
Over a hearts slow beating; where hope died
long before.
Where is the husband, the father-he who
should care for these:
Give not 4 hasty verdict, wait e'er you judge
him. please:
Out in the city highways. drenched by the
driving rain.
He Is begging u chance to labor-to toll for
the merest gain.
Out in the great sad army-the unemployed
that waits,
Thronging the narrow byways, haunting the
rich mans gates,
He asks, not charity, mind you: but his herit-
age as man-
The right to live and to earn his living Us best
Out since the early morning. wandering here
and there;
He claims but place to labor, no matter how
or where;
Begs but chance of earning (obeying the old
behest,
Bread by the sweat of his face, for the ones
he loves the best.
Sick with despair and hunger, out in the
pouring rain,
He sues for the right, God-given, but plead
ing is all in vain.
Home to his damp, dark cellar he goes, as the
hours drag by.
To hear through the gathering shadows his
baby's wailing cry.
Can he go to them empty-handed-to his
starving wife and child:
Back to the street he staggers, through des-
peration wild;
cakes-nO more,
After his long days fasting. from baker

When tortured by woe and craving, begging Il
chance to slave,
Sosicty passed unloading and naught to the

But now society's safeguard, the law, in an

to commit crime.

The Admission of Utah, New Mexico aud
Arizona win Cut an Important
Figure.

The Admission OF Utah, New Mexico aud
Arizona WIN Cut an Important
Figure.
WAsHINGToN, d. c., November O.
A point that mas been overlooked in
computing the political complexion Of
the next Senate is the admission Of
Utah with the two United States Sena-
tors. The act Of the last session OF Con-
greSs, admitting Utah, provides that In
March, 1895, the constitutional cOnven-
tiOu shall be held. On the first
Tuesday after the first Monday Of
November that year, the constitution
is 20 be submitted 10 the people aud if
ratified aud found by the President TO
be iu accordance with the act, he will
issue proclamation admitting IL as
State. The act also provides that rep
resentative to the Fifty-fourth Congress
shall be elected at the same time the
vote is taken upoL the constitution; also
that State officers and a Legislature
shall be chosen, and that if the consti-
sutton is ratified the Legislature shall
Immediately meet and elect two United
States Senators.
This would make In all ninety Sena-
tors and as the next Senate now stands,
the politics of the Utah Senators would
cut an important figure. Another
probability which arises is the sdmis-
sion of both New Mexico aud Arizona,
which may be accomplished 10 time so
shat four more Senators would partIci-
nate ia the organization OF the next
Senate. Bills have already passed the
House for the admission OF both these
territories. The Senate Committee on
Territories have reported both favOrably
10 the Senate and they are now on the
calendar.
The admlssicn OF these new States
would make q total Of "a Senators, and
any party 20 control would need IS FOR
q majority. With the Vice President,
the Democrats could control the Senate
with g Senators.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., November o.
Complete aDd overwhelming as was the
disaster which befell the Democracy 90
Tuesday, it is wonderful how rapidly
Democrats here are recovering from the
frst stunning effects OF it. This is due
to the fact that as they snalyze the re-
turns they see more and more clearly
that the Republicans did not win
because Of an Increase of their
vote, but because Of a tremendous
falling off OF the Democratic vote.
10 other words, it is plain the RepubIi-
cans carried the country, not because
Democrats voted with them, but be-
cause Democrats did not vote at all.
Already the figures at hand snow this 20
be true, not alone Of protectionist
States. such as Massachusetts aud Ohio,
but OF the tariff reform States OF Mis-
souri, and Alabama. The Republicans
have not won Democrats 90 their way
OF thinking. The Democrats were
merely so dishesrtsned aud disgusJed
by the open treschery Of some and the
lack OF discipline aud courage OF others
Of their leaders 10 Congress that
THEY REFUSED TO GO
TO the polls. Ia some States, as New
York, this rule did not hold good, but
in most OF the States a study Of the re-
turns reveal that nothing else was the
matter with the Democracy. And this
fact has caused genuine tariff ref0rmers
here % take haarj again. 10 has recon
