Riley to Crouch.

The following, from the pen OF James
Whitcomb Riley, is cer'1enly as sweet
as the famous song it parephrases. And
yet it is not a paraphrase, for we forget
all a the tenderness and love it
breathes IN every line:
Kathleen Mavournecn, the song is still ringing
AS fresh and as clear as the trill of the bird;
In world weary hearts it is sobblng and sing
ing
In pathos too sweet for the tenderest word.
Oh, have we forgotten the one who first
breathed itf
And have we forgotten his rapturous art,
Our need to the master whose genius be-
Gueathe0 it!
Oh, why art thou silent, thou voice OF my
heart?
| Kathleen Mavourneen. thy lover stlil MIgers!
The long night is waning. the stars gale and
few;
Thy sad serenader with tremulous fingers
Is bound with his tears as the lily with dew.
The old harp strings Quaver, the old voice ID
shaking,
In signs and in sobs means the yearning re-
frain,
The old vision dims, and the old heart is
breaking
Kathleen Mavourneen, inspire us againl
Several years ago James Whitcomb
Riley wrote to the writer Of this col
umn, The author Of, Kathleen Ma
vourneen' is i'll and in:pOverty," and
inclosed a copy Of his own beautiful
verses, quoted above, and at that time
Riley rendered the aged and famous
song writer substantial aid. We repeat
that, in the loving tribute quoted, Riley
has almost surpassed the original. -

STRAIGHT STATE TICKET.
Tho Popuiisss Decide to Run . strsirhs
state Ticket.

CLARxsBURo. Sept. 4.-Aftcr two
days OF fruitless barter and dickering
tho Democratic Stats Committed and
political .heelers, headed by Colonel John
L. McGrnw. have gonc homo and left
the Populist State Committee masters Of
their own party and keepers Of their
own oonscienccs. The Populist commit
tee could not DO threatened, cajoled nor
bought, after their Wheeling experience,
20 endorse Mr.. "See.Sce" Watts for
Governor ON his "sce-saw" platform.
The Populists stood firm under every
kind Of induccment. They wero prom
ised state patronage without stint and n
place on the Democratic State ticket,
other and in addition to two electors, il
they would only fall in and lot the
democratic whale put the Populis'
party in its belly. But tho Populists
declined tho baitcd hook.
Mr.. Isaac G. Ralphsnyder. who was
nominated by the Populists for Governor
at their Parkersburg convention, and
NOT nominated at tho Wheeling Demo-
cratic convention, resigned" In his
place the Populist committee named
General" Nat Ward Fitxgerald of
Preston county and no heads their solid.
straight state ticket.
After the Democrats had given up
their attompt nt fusion on the state
ticket and also on electors. and left, the
Populist committee decided to endorse
the four Democratic district electors,
and for eloctors.at.larg named two Pop
ulists, James Bassel of Lewis and IL. Il.
Houston Of Greenbrier. Thus they fuse
on four out of six electors.
The Democrats have q straight cleo.
toral ticket, having named General" j.
w. st. Clair Of Fayette and Sam ".
Woods Of Barbour ms electors. ut. large.
Thus endeth the second lesson OF
Democratic attempts to swallow the
Populist party bodily and leave none for
seed. But the Populists propose to run
their own state ticket Us In former
years.
How has tho mighty West Virginia
Democracy fallen From the party OF
OF Governor Jnckson's time to the whin.
ing, supplicating disorganization Of 70.
