LONGING FOR THE OTHER ONE.


Sweet little maid with winsome eyes
That laugh all day through the tangled
hair
Gazing with baby looks so wise,
over the arm of the oaken chair
Bearer than you is none to me;
Bearer than you there can be none,
Since in your laughing eyes see
Eyes that tell of another one.
Here where the freight softly CLOVIS,
Sheltered and safe and snug and warm,
What to you is the wind that blows,
Driving the Sleet of the winter storm?
Round your head the ruddy light
Glints on the gold from your tresses
spun,
But deep is the drifting snow tonight
Over the head of the other one.
Hold me close as you eagerly stand,
Watching the dying embers shine;
Then shall I feel another hand
That nestled once in this hand of mine;
Poor little hand so cold and chill,
Shut from the light of stars and sun,
Clasping the withered roses still
That hide the face of the sleeping one.
Laugh, little maid, while laugh you may,
Sorrow comes to us all | know;
Better, perhaps, for her to stay
Under the drifting robe of snow.
Sing while you may your baby songs,
Sing till your baby days are done;
But, OH the ache of the heart that longs
Night and day for the other onei

DEMOCRATIC PAPER ron CHICAGO.

The announcement that Mr.. W. f.
Hearst, of the New York Journal and
San Francisco Examiner, intends to
esta blish Democratic free silver pa
per in Chicago is good news. In all that
great city there is but one so-called
Democratic paper, the Chronicle, and
that is one of the most abid and
country Its every day effort is to
out-Herod Herod in bitter denuncia-
ton and revilenent of Mr.. Bryan and
the Chicago platform. The Chicago
Republicans are paragons of decency
and propriety in comparison with it
1t is the great misrepresentation of
Democracy in the Mississippi valley.
There is no question as to what
kind of a paper Mr.. Hearst will es-
tabIish in Chicago. 1t will be first-class
in every respect. Editorially, it will
be able and fearless and a, true and
staunch advocate of the Chicago
platform and candidate 1t will
champion the silver cause with all the
earnestness and ability that the New
York Journal does. Chicago is wide
awake city and its newspapers of the
best, but we look to see Mr.. Hearst
introduce as many innovations into
Chicago journalism as he did into
New York Journalism. He will set the
papers there a pace that will require
all their pluck and go-aheaditiveness
10 keep up with.
There is not a more promising field
in the country for the establishment OF
a Democratic paper than Chicago. 1t
offers opportunities during the pres
emit campaign that cannot be found
elsewhere. That Mr. Hearst will
establish one is a matter of congratu-
lation by the national Democracy.
We wish it every success, as it Will
deserve it

SILVER SENTIMENT IN PENNsYLvA-
MA.

( 1t has been known for a very long
time that there has been pretty
strong sentiment in favor of free sill
/ ver in Pennsylvania. 1t has continued
/ to spread in place of diminishing. A
/ gentleman who was recently in the
snthIacite coal region Of the state
saye, in an interview in the Wash
ington Post:
Il have lately been up in the antflra-
cite coal region of Pennsylvania, and
want to tell you that free silver has
won converts by the thousands in all
that section. 1 talked with a great
many of the men who work in the
mines, for, having formerly been a. con-
siderable employer of labor in the coal
belt, knew scores of them personally.
They nearly all told me that they were
going TO vote for Bryan For years
the mine workers have experienced the
hardest sort of luck, and, with an
average employment of not over 100
days in the year, they have scarcely
been able to make a living for their
families The farmers are almost as
bad off, for a large per cent of them
have seen their homes slip out of their
possession through the depreciation Of
farming lands and agricultural pro-
ducts.
Knowing Pennsylvania as I do,
have no hesitation in saying that, with
the proper effort and organization,
and by the thorough canvass of the
state on the part Of men who can
explain the silver side of the contro-
versy to the people, it is debetable
ground, and the Republicans would be
put to their best tr~umps to carry it for
Mckinley. The idea that because it is
usually heavily Republican 1T is sure
to go that way next November is as
fallacious as the other notion that Sem
ator Quay Is all powerful and can
control the voters as he Wills
The story that comes from the am
thracite coal regions Of Pennsylvania
is the story that comes from adj quar-
tiers of the nation. The people are
aroused as never before, and their
cause is marching along to victory.

1NrERMINABLE BONDS.

The drawing up a. charter for Greater
New York is proving an interesting
matter. Six chapters have been COM
pleted and submitted for public ap-
prevail. The sixth relates to the debt
of the city and the provisions for fund
ing it. The most important para
graphs, which are a great innovation
in municipal government, are these:
The commissioners of the sinking
fund are hereby empowered to author
ize by concurrent vote, and direct
the comptroller to issue and sell or
exchange therefor at not less than
par, consolidated stock Of said city,
payable within period Of not less
than twenty nor more than fifty years
from the date of issue thereof, and at
a rate of interest not exceeding 5 per
cent per annum, payable semi-annu-
ally; and upon the payment and re-
demption of any portion of said bonded
debt, the certificates thereof shall be
cancelled by the commissioners.
Or in lieu of the consolidated stock
aforesaid, and for the purpose stated
in this section. the commissioners of
the sinking fund when authorized
thereto by the municipal assembly and
a concurrent vote Of all of said COM
missioners, shall issue consolidated
stock payable at an interminable per-
od of time but at a rate of interest
not exceeding 5 per cent per annum,
payable semi-annually, for the pur-
chase of which at periods and in
amounts to be fixed by ordinance.
there may be raised in the taxes an
nually levied upon the city, such
amounts as the municipal assembly
may authorize, with the concurrence of
the commissioners of the sinking fund
The second one is the one of great
est interest and Importance. About
the only argument advanced in favor
Of this plan for interminable bonds is
that the creation of sinking funds
would no longer be a necessity for the
city. It is also urged that such bonds
would command higher price in the
market than any other kind. That is
not at all certain. There are very
many more serious objections to the
plan than good reasons in favor Of it,
There is no limit to what the amount
of these bonds shall be; it is to be pre-
sumed, though, that such a limit will
be fixed, but the circumvention of it
would be an easy matter. The plan
invites extravaganza, because there is
no day of reckoning. The man, the
city or the state that does not feel the
necessity of making provision for the
final payment of his or its debts is al
most sure to plunge into a career of
folly and dissipation. If debt is
bad thing, as it surely is, an internlin-
able one would be the worst form of
it. If Greater New York is allowed to
pile up an interminable debt, lit will
not be many years before the interest
upon it will be as much as the interest
upon the present debt and the creation
Of sinking fund combined. Where.
then, will be the advantage? If New
York adopts this policy no doubt other
cities will wish 70 do the same, and it

Hon. j. A. Towney, congressman
from the First Minnesota district, in
a recent interview, said: Il believe
that with vigorous effort and thorough
organization on the part of the Repub-
licans that we will be able to carry
Minnesota for Mckinley, but the hard
est sort of work is necessary to our
success, because all the elements in
opposition to Republicandsm are going
to effect a thorough fusion He also
stated THAI another thing that must
be taken into consideration is THAT
some of the most influential men in
the party have boled the Republican
ticlzet-men like John Lind, who will
be the FUSION candidate for governor;
Lieutenant-G Day, Congress
man Towne, Frank Nye, who is enc
of tine most brilliant stump speakers
in the state, and a. good many others
of equal prominence. That their de-
lection is a matter of considerable con-
sequence is not to be denied. That is
am admission that Minnesota is a
dnmbtful state, in fact almost a con-
cession that it has gone beyond the
d,oU btfui stage

will eventually spread to counties and
states. 1t would be bound to end in
almost universal disaster. 1t is the
common experience of mankind that
debts grow-and the burden of carry
ing them becomes SO great that those
who attempt it are too often crushed
beneath them. That is the trouble in
the country today; the people cannot
carry their burdens. States, and the
subdivisions thereof, are but aggrega-
tons of people. and are subject more or
less to the same laws as the units
composing them. These interminable
bonds would be but a sorry imitation
of British consols. Even England is
trying gradually and slowly to pay off
her national debt. Greater New York
would do from choice what England
did from necessity.

JOHN A. INGALLS, SILVER INTER-
VIEW.

On the Both ult. The Herald had
something to say regarding the attempt
of life insurance companies to inf1u-
ence their policy-holders in their ac-
ton on the silver question. In doing
SO we quoted somewhat extensively
from what purported to have been
circular sent out to the policy holders
of the New York Life Insurance COM
pany by its president, Mr.. John A.
Mccall 1t was very earnest if not
bitter onslaught upon the Chicago
platform and candidate. We took the
matter quoted from one of our east
ern exchanges, where it was called a
circular, and we used it as a circular.
The manager Of the company in this
state, Mr.. Henry j. Newman, called
upon us and asked to see a copy of the
circular, stating his Office had received
none. He was told where it was OBJ
tanned. He Immediately addressed a
letter to Mr.. Mccall, inclosing him a
copy of The Herald containing the ar
ticle. saying that its position in the
matter was the same that would be
taken by all the leading papers of this
section, as the papers and people here
are practically of one mind on the
question of national finances. He fur

feeling Of deep solicitude that l ask
you TO deny the sending out of such
circular letters, for cannot for

and worthy head
In answer to this letter, Mr.. New
man yesterday received this telegram:

represents my personal opinion and
Judgment, just as the opposite may
your own. It is not too much too as
sumo that there is yet federation of
beliefs, even il they are not our own.
JOHN A. M'CALL.
We make ibis explanation in justice
to Mr.. Newman and his cmpany. Mr.
Mccall admits the correctness of the
statement published by The Herald,
policy holders, but an interview. It
is a somewhat fine distinction, but he
is entitled to the benefit of it. The
purpose of the interview was to exer-
else the same influence as circulars
on the same subject, that some other
life insurance companies have sent out
The gentleman closes his telegram
rather testify, and were we to make
any reply to it, it would be that those
who oppose the Chicago platform and
candidate would deny liberation of be-
lief to those who favor them. Such
was the spirit of Mr.. McCall's inter-
view. He must also know that when
a man so prominent as he in the finan-
cial world rushes into print with his
views on the paramount issue of the
day, which is one of finance, his views
become the legitimate subject of news
paper criticism, whether it be adverse
or favorable. We venture Che predic-
ton that John A. Mccall will not give
out another interview on the financial
question pending the present campaign.
He has learned that even some of the
gold press regard his interview as ex-
tremely foolish for man in his posi-
ton.
