kissed My Boy. as he lay asleep,
on his temple, blue-veined, white and
fair
Like his mothers; and some impulse
prompted me
To whisper something in his ear,
As he lay so quiet, 50 white so still,
And said to myself l will.
And this is the substance of what I said,
In whisper-tones, in the sleeping ear
OF the little body on the bed,
Wondering, the while, if the child would
hear;
Il love you, darling" soft and low,
For l did not wish to awake him, you
know.
His breathing was soft, and his mouth was
sweet
And the gentle rise and fall of his breast
Showed him creature to be caressed,
Even the poise of his hands and feet
Showed innate gentleness; childlike and
sweet
AS in gentle womanly women you meet
And one little hand on the Counterpart
lay
And the face was slightly turned away,
Showing in clean cut profile its beauty
Save the eyes. which awake, are blue,
grayblue.
whispered Il love you" in the little ear.
And passed my fingers through the fine
soft hair.
He stirred just a little, and the hand that
lay
Outside the covering crept to mine.
And l folt my fingers clasped in the way
That those only know who have learned
TO divine
And to know the value of the love we ex-
press,
Not in words. but in actions, or a silent
CaresS.
He was fast asleep, but I knew that the
boy
Had heard what said. and It gave him
joy.
And this is the thought that suddenly
came
Into my mind, as I looked at him there.
And felt that he knew, had heard, what
said,
Although asleep. my boy so fair:
Tone and manner go very far
To help or otherwise, what we say
Counts for little. however true,
If ii is not said in a gentle way;
Just as my whisper reached the soul
Through the sleep-stilled ear of my
sleeping boy,
50 gentle manners and gentle words
Reach the heart, do good and cause only
joy. H.

The chief thought Mr. Whitney had in
mind when he said, in an interview
few days ago that the republican leaders
were conducting the republican campaign
on partisan lines. and thus making it i'm
possible for sound money democrats to
vote the republican ticket. was the atten-
tion the republican speakers and newspa-
pers are giving the tariff question.
1t is evident from what some of the re-
publican leaders say, and especially what
Mr.. Mckinley himself said last Friday to
a delegation Of glass blowers who called
the republican managers are not going to
abandon their purpose to keep the tariff
question before the people. In the course
of his remarks Mr.. Mckinley said that
one Of the first acts of a republican con-
gress would be to put on the statute books
law TO protect American industries and
provide adequate means of revenue.
1t is true that his speech was addressed
to class of workingmen who believe in
high protective tariff, and who, through
tnGH SpBkNSllldAlf HAQ Sdlu AAltS were sat
isfied with the money we now have, and
that what they wanted was tariff hav-
ing more protection in it; still. in view of
the fact that the republican leaders are
depending upon getting a large demo-
cratic vote for their national ticket it
would seem as il wisdom would have die
tated a less aggressive declaration in be-
half of the republican protective system.
If the republicans conduct the campaign
on the idea that what is needed to restore
prosperity and to keep the currency
sound. is a high protective tariff, their
ticket will not get many votes from sound
money democrats. They will force that
class of democrats to favor another dem
ocratc ticket or to vote the regular dem
ocratic ticket. Even if all the sound
money democrats should vote the repub-
lican ticket it is a question whether that
ticket could be elected. but if they should
not vote for it there would be but little,
if any, probability Of the republicans hav-
ing an opportunity of trying their high
protection programme.

An east side druggist was startled the
other day, says the New York Sun, when
a boy came into the store and handed
him a crumpled note, the handwriting of
which he easily recognized as that of the
wife of one Of his best customers, VINO
lived few blocks up the street, and owed
him bill The note read as follows:
Dear Sir-Please send me by the bearer
five ounces of rat poison. My husband
has just returned from Washington
The druggist was undecideG as TO what
to do He had about made up his nina
TO call policeman when the boy fumb-
ling in his pockets, pulled out another bit
of crumpled paper and said:
Say, mis'er here's the rest of the note.
1 got in a scrap wild a feller comm down
TO the store, and he tore it in two" u
read:
He is too tired to come down tonight.
but Will stop in tomorrow and pay YOU
for this and settle the other bill.

The druggist looked relieved, and after
weighing out the poison went into his
laboratory and took a drink of nerve
tonic.

The New York Herald publishes q ais
patch from 81. Louis 10 the effect that
the democratic and popuu=t leaders held
"a meeting late Saturday night az which
St was decided 20 ask slr. Watson 10 re-
tire from the poDul-st ticket. making the
ticket. for both democrats and popuHsts
20 support. Bryan and sewaiL The dis
patch further states that the national
committee Of the popullst party win
make the request Of Mr.. Watson. II 1Ir.
Watson should consent the national
democratic committee would use its au-
thority says the dispatch. TO induce
state democratic committees TO arrange
joint electoral tickets with popuust state
committees.
We very much doubt that any step has
yet been taken 20 get Mr.. Watson 10 re-
tire from the populist ticket no one Of
course is in position to say how Mr..
Watson would receive a proposition 10
retire, but in view Of the fact that
Mr.. Sewan was rejected by the con-
vention. although extraordinary ef-
forts 20 have him nominated were made.
it is impossible TO see how the national
committee Of the populists could con-
sistcntly undertake. TO carry out such
programme as that mapped out IN the
Herald's dispatch.
But how would Mr.. Watson receive
suggestion that he should retire from the
ticket? From what Dc said after his
nomination it Is fair 20 infer that he
would not receive 1t favorably. Among
other things he said: Il opposed the
Endorsement Of Bryan and sewau by the
peoples party. Had we Endorsed the
democratic ticket. and put out none Of
our own. our existence as party would
have been at an end. We could not have
fought for the democrats on the national
ticket and at the same time antagonized
thom on state issues. Therefore, TO have
Endorsed their whole national ticket not
only meant the extinction Of our party
but meant defeat for free silver"
Now. if what the Herald's dispatch
says is correct. the popunst national COM
mittee proposes to do. practically, what
Mr. Watson says would put an end TO
the existence Of the populist party.
We are inclined 10 think that all the
Herald's dispatch contains is not true
Whether it is or not will be known very
soon. As a matter of fact Mr.. Watson
could not afford to abandon the trust re-
posed in him by so large "a part of the
popullst convention. Ii seems TO us that
If any agreement is reached with the
populists it will have to be on a basis
other than that of the retirement of Mr.
Watson. In fact in a dispatch from At
lanta which we publish this morning, Mr..
Watson makes 1t very clear that he does
not intend to retire from the ticket.

a Typical PoDuIist.
From the New York EOS andl

The populist convention violated all pre-
cedents in nominating a candidate for
Vice President before making its choice
for the first place on the ticket, and it
was only proper that ii should have been
equally reckless in picking out the man
who represents the real feelings ana de-
slres of the party. Thomas K. Watson Is
= typical southern populist.

The Richmond Dispatch says: In the
silver convention in st. Louis on Friday
night, some one called attention to the
fact that the nomination Of Watson was
announced at exactly 16 minutes to L.
at the opening Of the convention the
jerry Simpson said it was a good omen.
1t seems to have escaped Jerry and the
Dispatch, and probably others. that 1t
took the clock only one minute to change
the ratio, and that it pointed to fifty
nine other ratios every hour.
