Springfield, H., March General John
C. McClernand, well and favorably known
to the people of Utah. is lying on his
death bed in this city. A few days ago
there seemed to be good reason for the
belief that he would recover; but a
change for the worse set in a couple Of
days ago, and it is now given out that
the old war horse is slowly but surely
surrendering to the enemy against whose
assault he is powerless.

OUR POLICY.

In the campaign which is now on,
the farmer does not propose to
NEEDLE IN any fractional political
6ghts, but as we have always done
in the past. we must insist that all
officers from st. Tammany Parish
must be true and tried Democrats,
no matter how they stand on the
silver question. We are opposed
to having the parish, or any part o.
it, represented by Socialist, Pop
ulist or Republican. The country
is prospecting to a remarkable de-
gree, the prices Of farm products
Of all kinds arc increasing, laborers
have no difficulty in finding work

BY a tacit warning that unless Spain
carries out her promise OF suppress

time she must expect the United

quite different policy. In other
words. Spain is to be given one

A NEAT SWINDLING

what it terms a meat swindling
scheme as follows:
One OF the neatest swindlin.

will probably be around this fall

There's = river named Falia-
"Bogue Falia." .Poor Lo" called ii.
That was long ago, remember.
When the red man skinned its surface.
With his birch canoe and paddle,
AS some dusky maiden watched him
From the door of her dear wigwam.
There he sat, straight as an arrow.
And each dip his oars made, shortened
Still the distance 10 the wigwam,
Where she knew his eyes were turning.
Thus the dusky Indian maidens
Watched beside the gentle river,
With its wavelets beating ever
TO their own in sweet response.
That was in the days-the Olden
Days, when nothing like q railroad
Or a steamboat e'er was dreamed of.
Nor wire stretched from the ninet4ps
Gross the river to disturb it.
All these things have come in later.
Do YOU think the river careth
For these curious ways Of people:
hottie same, IL tioweth, h0weth.
In these hustllng days SO modern
That these'sno such thing as leisure.
Up to dates" the woodland river
Catches Oh to all these new things.
While now fair and lovely maidenS
Steal away. when sweet pale Luna
Shines SO brightly that she lures them
'Fc this river, where sonic boatmen
Wait impatient AS Leander.
Till they hear their merry laughter.
Then the greeting sounds SO modern.
.Ah, Miss M and l. we surely
Thought you'd zone back or US fellows
While their swecthearts each one lifting
With the current they 30 drifting.
Now the light oars, dipping, dripping.
Keeping time to their refrain.
"Love'. young DREAM is what !hey'r,
singing.
Just the same tale. over. over.
Just rs sweet as in days oldcn.
And the river fioweth onward.
In the moonlight. Blessed river.
Joy you've given to maids and lovers.
IN the ancient times ana modern,
With your poetry of motion.
Echo love songs to the ocean.
Fair Falia-Loveliest river
True hearts will forget you never.
