Song Marching Through Georgia
By Col n. J. Sharp and others
AT twenty, when a man is
young, he thinks he know it all.
He likes to wag his active tongue
and exercise his gall He struts
about in noble rage, the world is
his own. He laughs to scorn the
world of age and lists to self
alone. He thinks the ladies pine
and die because they love him so.
| AT forty. as you may suppose,
he's knuckled down to biz. IT'S
not till sixty that he knows how
big a chump he is.
| The position taken by Sena-
tors Dubois, Teller, Carter, Man
| tie and Cannon, in opposition to
all tariff legislation until a free
silver bill is passed, is one not
likely to benefit the silver cause.
We believe the position of Sena-
tor Shoup properly represents
the Republicans of Idaho.-Wal-
lace Miner
Dubois and the other senators
who voted against the tariff bill
did just what was right. While
they perhaps may have got
off of party lines of the tariff
humbug, they did not harm the
silver cause one iota In the Re-
publican House. Mr.. Dubois nor
any other senator is supposed to
put in their time in the interest
ofparty-they ought to represent
the people once in a while
which they have done in this in
stance. The people of Idaho are
proud of the bold position Sena-
tor Dubois has taken in this
matter, except it be few tariff
screamers such as the Miner.
Col. Robt. G. Ingersol is
great lover of happy homes. He
gets off the following
''The place to take the true
measure of a man is not in the
market place or amen-corner. not
, the forum or the field, but at his
own freside. There he lays
aside his mask and you may learn
whether he's imp or angel. king
or cur, hero or humbug. / care
/ not what the world says of him
whether it crowns him with
glory or pelts him with bad eggs
/ care not a copper what his
! reputation or religion may be-
! If his babes dread his home COM
, ing and his better half swallows
, her heart every time she has to
) ask him for a five dollar bill,
he's fraud of the first water,
even though he prays night and
! morn till he's black in the face
; and howls halleluJah till he
shakes the eternal hills. But if
! his children rush to the front
gate to greet him, and loves own
sunshine illumines the face of
: his wife when she hears his
: football, you can take it for grant
: ed that's true gold-his homes
? heaven, and the humbug never
, gets that near the great white
4 throne of God. He may be a
rank atheist and a red-tiag an
: archist, and a Mormon and
I mugwump; he may buy votes in
} blocks five and bet ON the cleo
. ton; he may deal 'em from the
/ the bottom and drink beer till he
t can't tell a silver dollar from a
| circular saw, and still be an in
| infinitely better man than the
. cowardly humbug who's all sua-
J vity, but who makes his home a
E hell-who vents upon the help
J less heads of wife and children
, the i'll nature he would like to in
f1ict on his fellow-men, but dares
