How can we tell
That the eyes which give back to us smile for
our smile
Often hide in their depths deepest anguish the
while,
That the lips whence gay laughter SO merrily
flows
Would be white did they dare let the world
know their woes
How can We tell2
How can we see
That the face which is turning so coldly aside
Bears the look of an infinite love il must hide?
That the passtonless air, which seems cold as
the stars,
May conceal a strong passion that beats 'gainst
its bars
How can we see?
How can we know
That the lives we deem selfish and worldly
alone
Only hide breaking hearts that are making no
moan,
That what in our blindness we Judge as un-
meet
The Lord Of the harvest will garner as wheat
How can We know

What might be done If men were wise
What glorious deeds, my suffering brother
Would they unite
In love and right
And cease their ssorn of one another
Expressions heart might be imbued
With kindling drops of loving kindness,
And knowledge pour
From shore TO shore
Light on the eyes of mental blindness
All slavery, warfare, lies and wrongs,
AL vice and crime might die together,
And wine and corn
To each man born
Be free as warmth in summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect
In self respect
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
What might be done? This might be done.
And more than this, my suffering brother
More than the tongue
Fer said or sung,
II men were wise and loved each other.

A Wise Man.

There is a man in our town,
Who il so wondrous wise,
He knows he cannot sing at all,
And so he never tries.
He also knows he has no wit,
Like many funny folks,
And so he never bothers me
By getting OH his jokes.
And when he has no word TO say,
He's wise enough, though young,
To sit about while others talk
And hold his little tongue.

NOT YET SELECTED.
President Cleveland Taking Time to
AppOint Arbiters.

WASHINGTON, July 1S.-Hon. Carroll D.
Wright, Commissioner of Labor, who is
TO be chairman of the commission that will
inquire into the causes of the late strike of
the American Railway Union and cognate
matters, said to-day that he had no intima-
ton when the names of the other two COM
missioners would be announced by the
President. The President had not con-
suited him respecting the selection of the
other arbitrators and he CWrighD wished
to have no say IL the selection of the board.
Mr.. Wright feels that the President is con-
sidering the questioN very carefully, with
view to getting men who will give salts
faction to all interests concerned. The law
requires that of the men to be named. one
at least, must be a resident of the State
or municipality where the questions of con-
troversy arose. Mr.. Wright re cognizes that
the commission will have difficult task to
perform, but he does not look for a long
drawn-out investigation. He said, to-day,
that he believes that the facts sought for
can be obtained from few men and few
documents.

FORGED ENDORSEMENTS.
Petitions for Omce Seekers Manufac-
tured i'm Washington.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, July 1s-Shortly after
taking charge of the Postoffice Department
as Postmaster-general, Mr.. Bissell made
ruling that all applications for positions as
postmasters should be accompanied by petit
tions signed by the patrons OF the office.
The object of this ruling was TO get the
local sentiment of the patrons of the
office and it was Mr.. Bisselrs intention,
according to statements made by him at the
time, to place more value upon these petit
tions than upon the Endorsements of the
Congressman and others who usually exer-
else arbitrary powers in securing appoint
ments 1t has, unfortunately, been found,
however. that the petitions furnished the
department are not always true index OF
the local sentiment in favor OF any one
candidate. The department officials claim
that they have yet TO find a single case
where fraud has been resorted to in MAX
ing up petitions, but several Congressman
and others have found a number OF cases
on file at the department where huge petit
tions with many signatures have been man
ufactured wholesale right here i'm Washing
ton. They claim that the names are not
those of the people OF the town in which
the office is located and that they are sim
ply valueess as indicating the desires of the
patrons of the ONCE.
Ii is claimed that a certain Indiana Con-
gressman has a henchman employed here
who spends large part OF his time in
manufacturing spurious petitions artisti-
cally signed with many different names in
many different styles of handwriting. These
petitions have great weight at the depart
ment and the clever Indiana Congressman
has very strong pull in consequence. This
condition OF affairs was called TO the at
tention of the department some time ago,
but the department officials do not seem to
have verified the statements made. al
though 1t would have been very easy for
them 10 have done so. A number OF fellow
members from the same State have known
or the practices OF their tricky colleague
fer some time past. but none of them have
cared to call the matter TO the attention OF
the department the postoffices under
consideration where forged petitions had

Hayes, Mcclure and French.
PHILADELPHIA, July 1S.-The knights
OF Labor journal will print tomorrow, an
account of the Chicago strike, the position
taken by the knights towards it and what
it claims. to be the facts regarding the con-
ference with President Cleveland for the
appointment of an arbitration commission.
1t says, in part:
ION Saturday, July Z, after consultation
with the officers of the knights of Labor
by wire, John w. Hayes general secretary
of the order, started to find George NJ.
Pullman, who was reported to be at Ell
beron for the purpose of requesting him to
submit the then existing troubles to a gov
ernment arbitration joint application of
both parties interested. BY the time Mr..
Hayes reached Elberon, he found that Mr..
Pullman had started for New York. The
secretary followed him there, only to find
that he had gone further towards the Thou
sand Islands Secretary Hayes then sum-
moned Brothers Mcclure and French to
meet him on the way and again started to
follow Pullman. but could not reach him.
Giving up this attempt, the Secretary, with
MesSrS. Mcguire and French, returned to
Philadelphia, on Monday night, stopping
long enough to communicate with General
Master Workman Sovereign and President
Debs in Chicago and started for Washing
ton. Secretary Hayes and the members of
the board went at once to the Capitol and
had consultation with Senator Kyle and
Representatives Pence BOatner and Bailey.
Mr.. Pence enthusiastically rendered them
his services, and hunted up the act Great
ing the arbitration commission.
Subsequently, Representative McGann
waited upon and extended his aid in
the matter. After he had seen President
Cleveland he notified the Knights of Labor
that, on a telephone request OF Senator
Kyle. the President would receive them on
Thursday afternoon. At the appointed hour
Secretary Hayes, Thomas b. Mcclure
Charles A. French, of the executive board
and j. G. Schoenfarber, of the Journal
under the chaperonage Of Senator Kyle,
waited on President Cleveland and were
cordially received by his Excellency. A
full and free discussion of the law and the
request formally made by the Knights of
Labor was had, the President critically dis
secting the law and observing any difficult
ties that might arise in carrying out it's
intents and purposes. At the conclusion of
the discussion, he said 10 those present: L
will appoint commission, gentlemen. Yod
can officially state this. l will name the
gentlemen who are to act as 'arbitrators
later on, tomorrow or next day."

government makes no attempt to prevent
the outrage. Resolutions were adopted TO
the effect that, as the President had al
ready called out the federal troops TO pro-
tect property in Chicago during the recent
strike, he should afford the same protection
to the colored citizens of the South.
