A SONG OF TIME.

Weep not for the hereafter
The burden of the years;
For Time stays not for laughter,
And Time stays not for tears.
On swiftest pinions flying
He speeds DER land and sea;
Shall roses dead dying
Revive because of thee?
Care not for sharp thorns springing;
70 thee be life complete
Ii any bird is singing,
And any rose is sweet.
What ills may come hereafter
VIII come despite thy fears:
Time fingers not for laughter,
And Time stays not for tears.

A POEM BY CHARLES DUDLEY
WARNER.

1t is not generally known that Mr. Charles
Dudley Warner sometimes drops into poetry
for the delectation of his friends, writes cor
respondent of the Boston Herald. He has done
this 10 celebrate special occasions among them
but has seldom allowed his effusions to appear
in print We are strongly inclined, from in
ternal evidence, to suspect that the following
verses, which have just appeared in the Hart
1ord Courant, are from his graceful pen:
THE DANCE OF THE BoNNETs
All up and down the brilliant house,
Through Circle, Box, Parquet,
SAT rows and rows of waiting folk,
Men, damt s. and damseis gay;
All with their bright, expectant looks,
Care-free as if in story books,
Impatient for the Play.
AT last the lights turned, sudden, low,
The curtain upward went,
Each voice was hushed and garments stir;
With eyes and ears intent
Upon the sparkling lovely scene
With elfs and fays the brooks between,
Each eager race was BENT
But one, aghast could nothing see
Except monStrouS plume:
While three red roses high awave-
From Paris skill abloom-
Before anothers straining eyes,
With saucy tilt and savage size,
DID loom, and loom, and loom.
And hard by this another sat,
Meek soul but now a-rage,
F0r two wide-spreading, fan-like wings
Concealed just half the stage
Sometimes players head or hand
Or fragment of dancing band
Would fall within his gauge.
One dame, behind ribbon tower,
Felt honest true amaze
That thoughtful she Of tiniest toque
Must thus be spoiled OF gaze.
She knew not that her light aigrette
To eyes behind would only let
Things pass as through haze.
And so the dance began-to right,
Toleft-to right again
The flower, the feather, silken bow,
The wing of bright bird slain.

CLEVELAND AND CARLISLE.

The dispatches of President Cleveland
and Secretary Carlisle to Mr.. Bynum give
the finishing touches to sit
uation without parallel in our
political history. When Mr. Cleve-
land was elected in 1884 he was the first
Democratic President who had been elected
in twenty-five years. and the party rightly
regarded him it's Moses. From a Demo-
cratic point of view he deserved renomina-
ton, and though he failed of reelection in
1888, he polled the full party vote. In 1892
still the foremost leader of his party, he
was again nominated and, after cam
paign of false promises and false hopes
was elected by a decided majority of the
popular and electoral vote. Mr.. Cleveland
is an outspoken man, and during all these
years, and since his last election, there has
been no doubt of his position on public
questions He has stood all the time as the
embodiment of his party principles and a
representative of the best type of Democ-
racy. 1t was this pronounced and almost
extreme advocacy of distinctive Democratic
principles that led to his election four years
ago. He is still a pronounced and almost
extreme advocate of the same principles,
but the party which three times nominated
and twice elected him the representative
of those principles has deserted him and
them. Nominated and elected as a Demo-
crat of Democrats, hailed in three cam
paigns as the delverer of his party, and
recognized, until within short time, as it's
greatest leader Mr.. Cleveland now finds
himself abandoned by a faction of his party
hot ic IN
ganization and actually read him out of the
party which he led cut of the wilderness.
He stands where he always has, but the
largest faction of the party that elected
him has turned Populist Never before in
our political history has a President in
office deemed it necessary for the public
welfare to repudiate a faction that has
usurped the name while betraying the prin-
ciples of his party, and voluntarily take his
place with minority CONTEMPORARY char
acterized as boilers.
If Mr. Clevelands dispatch emphasizes
the abruptness and completeness of the
departure of the Bryan Democracy from
true Democratic principles, Mr.. Carlisle's
is not less emphatic II should be delight
ed says the President, ito be present on
an occasion SO significant" Il am proud,
SAYS Mr. Carlisle Ito take my stand with
the old-fashioned Democrats who have re-
fused to abandon their honest convictions
Thus the Presidents greatest Secretary
cheerfully takes his place beside his chief.
Four years hence, if the Democratic party
can be reorganized so soon, the leaders of
the present free-silver faction will be try
ing to prove their Democracy by swearing
that, at heart. they were always loyal to
Cleveland.

demand and are expressed in its terms
But If these laws do not work out results

they will have to be rectified by legislation
Any embarrassment about ffty-three-
cent dollar may also be avoided in this
way. Its purchasing power will be dehn-
itively and authoritatively settled. One
can always ascertain by careful study
of the Congressional reports and docu-
ments and statutes at large just how much
of anything and everything he can buy
with it. The schedules of prices viii neces-
sarily be voluminous and the preparation
of them will be a work of some nagni-
| tude, and it will require good deal OF
time and patience. Fortunes may be made
and unmade by them. Pecuniary condi-
lions may be eQuaiized. In the discharge
of duties so complex and delicate the as
sistance of another department may be re-
quired by Congress, and one of the most
influential and trustworthy members of the
of it. None of them has shown greater
qualifications for the place, or so we'll
earned the right to hold it as Senator Till
man. Win MS ulScreeL ana Capable as
sistance it can hardly be doubted that the
purchasing power of a dollar will be reso-
lutely maintained; although it may become
necessary to place at his disposal the
forces of the War and Navy Departments
to compel people to buy and sell at the
| prices established by the government
schedules
There is one insurmountable obstacle in
the way of this scheme which ought to
be finally mentioned 1t is the election of
Mckinley and Republican Congress-
which will certainly be accomplished in
November by overwhelming majorities.
