Last January Lord Commissioner
Corker and LAWYER Howie refused
to allow Assessor Helfrich one cent
for his services to the county dur
ing 1895. Mr. Helfrich sued the
county for $4,000 due him and OBJ
tanned judgement at the April term
of the district court Last week
Corker and HOWE appealed the
case to the Supreme Court. They
know they have no earthly show
of being sustained, but Mr.. Gorker
must have revenge, Mr.. HOWE must
get another big fee, the bondsmen
must be deprived of that $4,000

FAREWELL ,KINLEY.

Adjust Before the Battle, Mother"
Just before convention Kinley,
We had serious doubts OF you,
All our daily papers nearching
For your answer overdue,
Each the question great discussing,
Wondering what your eeiise would be-
II the single golden standard
Or for silver coinage free.
horus-Fa' ewell, kinloy, YOU will never
Fill that presidential chair,
For our young hero from Nebraska
VIII he borne In triumph there.
But at last the news came flashing
That your honor YOU had sold,
Aud to please fUrrign nation
Raised the single standard gold.
Noble Dubois at that Injecting,
Voiced our thoughts with glowing tongue
Eloquent with deepest feeling
That from love Of country sprung. tChorus
With your single standard question,
o, what voc beneath IL liesl
Ruined homes and degradation
IL the meaning il implies
Such, Mackinley, are the evils
Which your party wide has spread,
Clouding thus nations glory
For which heroes fought and bled Chorus
with YOUR rotten plank, Protection"
Tariff laws ami money sound
Is the card at each election,
When the gnldbugs held the ground,
Such protection as the tiger
Gives the inoffensiye kind
Yet your party's deeds are blaeker,
waging upon their kind; Chorus.
On this vital silver question
Rests our Independence true,
Scars above the wiles OF faction,
Having nobler aims In view.
Breaks the rings that treason nurses
Loose the bonds that enchain,
Frees from want the toiling masses
Brings the wanderer home again. Chorus
Long ago, when England's tyrant
Threatened us with wars alarms,
Small in numbers but united,
Victory crowned our youthful arms.
Must We now, q mighty nation,
Fearing none on land or sea,
Beg from aliens their permission
10 establish silver freeY TChorus
Shades Of jefferson and jackson!
Are We sunk indeed SO low
That our brave and toiling millions
Must TO England homage show?
It's project void of reason,
Deadly as the Upas tree
Born at midnight foul with treason,
GRABBED In iniquty. Chorus,
But at last the day is dawnng!
See our Star of Hope appears
Herald bright of peace returning,
Rich in wisdom, young In years,
'1is hero from Nebraska
OF which native bards have sung,
From sunny South to bold Alaska
Loud his silver voice has rung lChorus
He has sent you his defiance,
Thrown his gage of battle down,
Truth and justice his reliance,
Truth the vietor's brow to crown.
Twas such weapons, I'm thinking,
Damp'ed your valor and betrayed
That your cause hopeless sinking
Spite OF Hanna's moneyed aid. Chorus
Rv your system of coercion
Honest thought YOU would control,
And by words Of foul aspersion
Check the current Of thF soul.
But our hallOthoN, remember,
Will defeat your hellish aim,
And establish next November
Silver free with loud acclaim. IChorus
