"SOME DAY"

"sOME DAY"
Some day it will not be like this,
All franght with happiness and bliss
For roads divide and friends must part,
To walk alone with aching hearts
Some day.
Some day your voice shall not hear,
That makes such music in my car;
| shall not heed your light commands,
Nor yet caress those dear, strong hands
Some day.
Some day shall not feel as now,
Your kisses OH my lite's brow;
| shall be silent with dislnay,
And you-you will not laugh that day
Some day.
Some day, how soon twill come,
When you will say, II am going home )"
Aud shall wonder mid the gloom,
OF silent and deserted rooms
Some day.
Some day the bees will hum,
And sweet birds sing about my home
The sun may shine, land yet to me
No brightness in the day I'll see
Some day.

IT'S strange that till trouble comes,
There's no thought Of Mother OF of home,
Nor till then, does le remember that she
alnno.
Will fly to his rescnc, his faults condone.
No matter what c'er may through life
betide.
She is ever in spirit ut our side,
From chifdhood's troubled hours to mali
hoods days,
She's ever oul comforter, our loving sage.
That maternal love, that tie which none
can break,
Ever faithful, cen though life itself be
the stake;
Caused Ivy your evil ways that faithful
heart may break,
Still no change in its love for you, will il
make.
Where OH this wide earth, can you find
No matter where e'er you may roam;
! A spot you'll meet a welcome so kind,
As mothers aud your dear old childhood,
home.
Why is it then, that with all this love,

That till you feol tho worlds "harl

There's no thought of Mother or of home

Mr., Lyman is a son Of the late Theo

port, through thick aud thin, all Re-
publican measures and men, thus
d, fines the position of its city contem-
pnraries:
"The Post announces that it will not
support ticket nominated on free

any candidate for the Legislature who

-r-Journal has expressed, of late. very

lies of the free silver men, but it has
not indicated what course it will take

YER. We can only judge Of its future
course by the way it has behaved in
The past, and do not. therefore, expect
It to oppose any Democratic candidate
because he is for free silver or because
ne is nominated on free silver plat
torn. The irrelevant Times is oppos-
ID to free silver coinage. but frankly
vows that it will stand by its party
and its party nominees, no matter
what the platform of the party or the
reed of the candidate on the silver
question"
Very well. The Times holds that
polilitics should begin like charity-at

Number of private citizens. Many, if
nor most Of the evils that Kentucky
now suffers, have come from that GUS
tom-more honOred in the breach
than in the observance-of electing
men to State Office, not because of any
particular fitness for the discharge Of
the duties thereof, but solely because
their opinions upon matters of nation
al polity were popular with the ma
jority. We have not asked of the can
didate, sis he honest, is he capable, il
he faithful to The Constitution" is he
broad and liberal in his views of pub
lie education ? is he sound upon mat
ters Of State. county and municipal
Caxation? is he a man who can be-
trusted to "do justice to all alike, the
poor and the rich, the weak and the
strong, the representative of the
humblest labor organization and the
haughtiest corporation ?" Instead, we
have been satisfied with the assurance
that the candidate was in favor of
iarlh reform, That he was with US on
whatever happened to be the current
currency tad, and that he was for or
against the annexation of Hawaii.
But things have changed. Our
home business has been neglected

FOUR LEAF CLOVER.

We sat beneath the apple-tree,
Hunting four-leaf clover;
The leaves they sifted sun -specks down,
And covered us all over.
And when she found a tiny stem,
With four small leaves upon 1t,
wish ven could have seen the eyes
Isaw beneath that bonnet.
They laughed and danced and sparkled so,
They set loves darts a-going;
From hunting four-leaf clover, then,
went straight way to wooine.
But now the apple boughs are bare,
And snow birds in them hover,
And she is sleeping meath the sod,
Where last year grew theclover.
