The Blooming of Goldenrod.

Probably a great many people who travel have failed to notice that the period tof blooming of the goldenrod does not be. ! gin first in thesouth and move nerthward, but apparently in the other direction, from north to south, remarks the Lewiston Journal. In some places in northern Yer mont and New Hampshire goldenrod of the common field md railroad track vari- ety is in profuse bloom as early as the 10th of July. On the Kennebec river traveller noted that the goldenrod was much more golden and less tinged with green than in Maiden or Cambridge, Mass. And the place where the plant is lntest of all in yellowing apparently is Cape Cod, where the dwarf seaside variety most common there hardly begins to do itself justice be- fore September. It Is possible that the northern goldenrod ripens before that far ther south for the samc reason that Indians corn ripens carlior in Vermont than it does in Virginia-it has got to ripen ear Her if it is going to ripen at all.

should see woman wearing silk dress they wouldn't t know what to make of it. If Colonel Shepard attended church Sunday he certainly saw number of silk dresses.
 Colonel Shepard should have gone fur ther and said that the duty on silk is lower under the Democratic law than under the Mckinley bill. A pathetic story is told of a clergyman taking bis vacation abroad last summer, who walked instead of rode, and denied himself many of the comforts and conveniencss of travel that he might save money to buy his wife black silk dress. He made the purchase, and on his return the duty was levied at the custom house. Having no money to pay the 50 per cent duty, the dress was taken from him. His wife wept when she learned of his unrewarded devotion to her. This in- cident occurred under McKinleyism.

AN editorial in the People,s Tribune of

AN editorial in the Peoples Tribune of yesterday afternoon makes some strictures on the meeting at Erswell's Hall Saturday night. First, it is claimed that the meet ing was for "business men.o In the an- nouncement of the meeting in the public prints of Friday and Saturday all were in- vited to attend, ''especially Young De. mocracy." And "Young Dsmocfacyo accepted the invitation and gathered in force. The Tribune also reflects on Mir. Little because he challenged debate with "the venerable orator, who had manifestly already wasted his physical powers to the last tension," and adds that MT. Little might have called upon MT. Bowman, MT. Parsons or Mir. Aldrich himself instead of Colonel Shepard. That's just exactly what MT. Little did. MT. Aldrich was sitting on the steps of the rostrum, just few feet in the rear of the speakers stand. and Mr. Little directly appealed to him to affirm or deny his statements, but MT. Aldrich would make no reply, saying he "was not doing the talking then.'' Mir. Lit. tie treated Colonel Shepard with the most gentlemauly considera- ton, and with that respect due to his years. But Colonel Shepard was all on fire, and would start up at the least allusion to what he had said in his speech. The Tribune stigmatizes the proceedings as "lynch law proceedings,p ,p which is entirely gratuitcus. It was public meeting, with equal rights to all and special privileges to none. yet the advocate of Republication held the floor for two and half hours, while the champion of Democracy spoke for hardly half an hour. If anybody was hung 1t was done according to law, and it may be added that when Colonel Shepard closed he invited s'any Democrat who was sober and a gentleman to come forward and answer his arpume .p

AUTUMNAL POET.

Autumn is the most glorious season of the year. There is charm in the woods, a melancholy refrain in the wind, golden glint in the sunshine that are irresistible. The flowers of autumn are more beautiful than those of spring or summer. None can rival the beauty of the golden rod, that sets the woods and fields afiame, as if a smile of God. No wonder that the poets are beginning to sing the praises of autumn to the neglect of the charms of spring. Dr. Samuel Minturn Peck, Alabama's poet laureate, is among the first of all poets to yield homage to the glorious beauty of autumn. His ode to autumn last year and it's tender beauty will be remembered: Iris all myth that autumn grieves- Hearthe rain among the leaves See what a tangled web 1t weaves- Iris all my tn that autumn grieyes. And this year Dr. Peck has written for the Boston Transcript lines of even greater beauty:
 WHEN AUTUMN PAssETH BY. When purple elderberries vie
 With sumachis s crimson stain, A flood ofmellow mipStrelsy
 Oerfows the winding lane
 myriad insect voices flute,
 And rival throats reply.
 No tree, no tuft of grass Is mute
 When autumn passeth by.
 A perfume rare of ripening leaves
 On zephyr pinions floats,
 And oft the scout of browning sheaves
 Blends with the cricket notes; Each hanging bough censor swings
 Beneath the dreamfu sky,
 And at her feet rich fragrance filings,
 When autumn passeth by.
 The spiders thread their gossamer
 With jewels for her head;
 The thistles strew their down for her,
 That softly she may tread;
 The brooklet stills It's summer glee
 Whene'er her feet draw nigh. And gently drones the yellow bee,
 When autumn passeth by. Strange sorceries the spirit bind,
 And work haunting spell; x Weird voices echo on the wind
 And whisper beauty's knell.
 At eventide 8 lonely star
 Comes forth to mourn on high, And sheds it's quiverin light afar,
 When autumn passeth by. The sweetest song that ever flows
 Hath sorrow in Its strain; The keenest joy that mortal knows
 Is always half pain.
 So life and death combine their art;
 They charm the ear and eye, And lovely pathos wins the heart,
 When autumn passeth by.

SECTIONAL ISSUES AGAIN.

It is very unfortunate that sectional is. sues should be brought into the present campaign. This is now a reunited coun- try and the dead should be permitted to bury it's dead. Yet, for the hope of polit- ical success, the Republican leaders are again reopenipg old wounds. Reed has sounded the war cry against the South, and now comes Senator William E. Chan. hler and re-echoes it. This feature of the campaign goes to show that the Republi- can party is actuated by the same motives that always moved it, and those who go '7iito the Republican camp from the other ssparties expecting to find broad and lib. 'eral spirit will be grievously disappointed. fFollowing is an extract from Senator Ghandler's speech at Newmarket, N. H., delivered October 8:
 E The people of the North are still the enemy fIwhom the rebel brigadiers are to rob and de. stroy. Therefore in the House Wilson, Turner and Breckinridge of the Confederate army were set to carry on the war, and in the Senate the Confederates, Vest, Jones, Mills ahd Harris, were appointed by Democratic Caucus, forty -four in number, of whom twen-' Hy-fve had served in the rebel army, to pur. Sue and exterminate the industries of the ,Northern enemy. Senator Chan dler pro- ceeded to show that the Wilson-Gor. man Dill was lrameQ TO destroy sNorthern industries while allowing South Tern industries to survive. Rice, sugar, Mead iron ore, coal, tobacco and whisky to have protection; wool, lumber and salt to be Free; Tennessee marble to be saved; New Hampshire granite to be endangered. The Wilson bill as 1t passed the House was utterly a1astructive of many industries, particularly
 h,lture, which were perhaps saved by the German amendments, but the President and the Southerners generally denounce the saving as ''perfdy and dishonor' One ob- feet, he asserted, of Southern tariff destroyers was to reduce the wages of labor. The old South did not believe in hiring and paying la. bor, but in owning the laborers and forcing from them an unwilling service. That Demo- cratic tariff destruction meant low wages and degradation for the masses of every commu- nifty was coming to be seen by the white voters of the South, and they were rising against their oligarchlcal masters. Hence arose one of the great reasons for repeating the na- tional ell ction laws and making fraudulent counting easy and safe at the South. ''This," said the Senator, "is no negro question, but white mans questionj the whites, if they vote against the organized Democracy, are to be counted out quite as ruthlessy as have been the blacks.'

THINGS DRAMATIC.

Joshua Whitcomb, for four years in the sOld Homestead,'' now in his new rural play, "The Country Squire, p will appear at O Brien's opera house at matinee and evening performances tomorrow.
 The comedy drama, .sThe Country squire," draws sap, from the rich soil of our own social life; 1t breathes the very soul of our thoughts. our transgressions, our ambitions, our sufferlngs and our aspira- tions. It is neither an agony of tears or g patch work of buffooneries, or an indiffer- ent succession of parlor talks. It is full of striking incident and grotesque humor, but it has story, plot and plan. It is as cool and fresh as a day in the autumn, when the corn is yellow and the wind is blowing. It strikes root deep in the fer a sign and proof of that rising artistic consciousness which is looking with hope ful gaze to our own hearths and shops and streets and fields for an inspiration which ID 1st be drawn from our realities, and which we cannot steal from foreign models, how ever excellent.
 The tale is alive with interest; the plot is we'll knit and clearly developed; the dia- logue Is varied and full of animation; the characters are drawn as they should be drawn in drama-in the rough by point, touch and turn of speech, by flash of thought, passion and incident; the actor is guided without being cramped in his effort to make live in the flesh what the author has indicated rather than portrayed in the lines. The whole piece, indeed, is so tremendously brought through it's sev. eral stages of action to climax and close, so relieved with alternating rays of humor, action and pathos, so varied with the griefs and joys of the life we feel-the elements, in fact, are so mixed in it that MT. Boyd may well stand up and say, "This is a play indeed.D
