Thy blue is our nation endurance,
And points to the blue above.

a type OF our Fathers love.
Thy stars are Gods witness OF blessing,
And smile at the foeman's frown.
They sparkle and CLEAN in their splendor
Bright gems i'll the great world S crown

MRS. MARY l.. LEASE writes us from Texas
that she is addressing large and enthusiastic
audiences in that state. She says the Popu-
lists there insist OH a middle theroad policy,
and refuse to listen the siren song of the fusion
ist, in consequence of which the Populists are
making steady gains among those who consider
principle of greater Importance than spoils.

THE Democratic party has some Silver men,
the Republican has some silver men, the Pro-
hibition party has some silver men and the
PopuIist party has all silver men. Where do
the friends of silver naturally belong if not in
the Popuiist party2 A party divided against
itself cannot stand. All Of the parties will
either have to all be foI SILVER OF. all for gold
The issue is on, aud it cannot be lodged.
IN the next campaign there will be three
parties for gold and one for silver.

A SOLDIERS MONUMENT.

A monument for the soldiers!
And what will ye build it Off
Can ye build it of marble or brass or bronze,
Outlasting the soldiers love?
Can ye glorify it with legends
AS grand as their blood hath writ d
From the innost shrine of this land of thine
To the outermost verge of it?
And the answer came: We would buildit
Out of our hopes made sure, =
And out of Our purest prayers and tears
And out of our faith secure. i
We would build it out Of the great whiteitruth
Their death hath sanctifed, X
And the sculptured forms of the men in arms,
And their faces ere they died.
And what heroic figures
Can the sculptor carve in stone? \,
Can the marble breast be made to bleed
And the marble lips to moan2
Can the marbled brow be fevered, b
And the marbled eyes be graved
TO look their last, as the flag floats past,
On the country they have saved?
And the answer came: The figures
Shall all be fair and brave,
Aud as beftting, as pure and white ~
As the stars above their grave. d
The marble lips and breast and brow \
Whereou the laurel lies Il
Beneath Us right to guard the Eight
OF the Old flag in the skies.
A monument tor the soldiers,
Built Of a peoples love, :,
And brazoned and dccked and panoplied 3
With the hearts ye build it of. /
And see that ye build it stately =
In pillar and uiclfe and gate,
And high in pose as the souls OF those
It would commemorate.

THE preachers are the easiest -gulled people
on the face of the earth when ticklod by the
politicians. This is shown by the easy manner
in which the governor pulls wool over their
eyes in enforcing the prohibitory law If
Pickering, fol- instance, or St. John, had been
elected governor instead of Morrill,, would there
have been any waiting for public sentiment or
great Fourth-of-July temperance dcmonstra-
tions If Morrill, was insincere once, he is
still insincere, and probably all the fuss that is
now being made over the enforcement vi the
proh;bitory law is little bit of by-play given
to amuse the preachers. 1t will be recalled
that Gov. Humphrey engaged in a pyrotechnic
display OF temperance, but he held the whisky
vote for a second term, as well as the preacher
vote, and we know that the whisky men ncve-
forgive real enemy. A short time since, h.
preache1s were denouncing Morrill,, Now they
are endorsing him but the fact still remains
that Mr.. Morrill, has not in the least changed,
and will get the votes of both preachers and
boot-leggers for a secong term.

ternal insurance business in Iowa. The
decision was rendered in a case where
the Northwestern Legion OF Honor had
refused to pay insurance on the ground
that the society had been deceived by
tina late member at the time OF his
making application. The beneficiary
set mp the claim that the society had
lost it's right to that plea by failing to
comply with the general insurance laws
OF the state, which reGuire that a copy
OF the application must be filed with
the policy. The court accepted this as
a correct view OF the requirements OF the
Iowa law, and thus, in effect, decided
that all fraternal insurance must be
done in accordance with the general in
surance laws Of the state.

tCChRES'S ANNUAL REPORT.
Commissioners Pointed Comments on
Patriotism and Pensions.

Com mtsstOnerS POINTED comments on
Patriotism and Pensions.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 81. - Commits
sioner William l.. Lochren of the pen-
sion Office in his annual report makes
several pointed suggestions. Under the
head "PatriotiSm and Pensions he
says:
Those men who enlisted early and
fought the battles Of the war were not
moved by m~ercenary considerations,
and unless actually disabled did not
show the haste in applying for pen
sions manifested by those who enlisted
near the close Of the var for large
bounties and did little actual service,
and who are now the noisiest in declar.
ing for more pensions. AS compared
with this latter class the real soldiers of
the wal have been modest i'll preferring
claims for pensions
Would Bar Disreputable Attorneys.
The commissioner says that many dis
reputable and incompetent men are en-
gagged as pension attorneys and suggests
that none but reputable members of the
bar be allowed to practice in pension
cases.
The report shows that the number of
pensioners Jan. 80, 1894, was 500, 544;
new pensioners added during the year,
29.lS5; dropped pensioners restored,
4 1905; deaths during the year, 29,Sl6;
dropped from other causes, 14,515; max
ing a net increase of pensioners during
the year of $50. Pension claims, al
lowed during the year, 39,1S5; rejected,
1913, 300; cases pending, 552,2lO.
