The Old Dress.

What shall we do with the poor old dress,
Long ele out of life's storm and stress
Fit to be cast aside
Its busy owner died?
Not worth reniaking, and room is scarce,
And TO leave It hung in its place
Means sudden Pangs of a Scarce-healed
woe
And 2 lost beloved face.
Yet that dress was shabby that close be-
side
Another of silk might hang,
And it brushed its neighbor nesting there
With never a grudging pang.
For the heart that beat in the shabby
gown
Loved the heart in the silken dress,
And left it a lesson of lifelong love
And patient unselfishness.
O. silent witness of mother-love,
Till the warm heart fell asleepi
Good enough for the mothers wear
Then good enough to keep.
Fold ii away with reverent hands
And quiet and loving tears,
Then pray for the heart in the silken
dress
Through the motherless coming years!

was reduced from 81 to 81 per 1,00O-32

Last Caucus Of tho Republican Senators So
Decides-Other Decisions.
Washington, July 1.-The Republican
senators held what they decided should
be their last caucus on the tariff bill last
night. The meeting continued for more
than three hours, and was productive Of
important results. which were not
reached without the display Of consider
able feeling. Among the points decided
were the following: To report no anti
trust amendment, to withdraw the orig
inal finance committee provisions for a
duty on tea and an increase Of A cents per
barrel in the tax on beer, and to provide
for a tax on bond and stock transae-
lions. The greater part OF the time was
given to the proposition for a provision
against trusts. The discussion on this
question was opened upon the basis Of
q report by the judiciary committee in
opposition to any effort to attach a trust
provision to the tariff bill.
The comHitte had held a meeting dur
ing the afternoon at which the whole
question was gone over at length with
other Republican senators, including
Hanna and Chandler. It was there de-
cided that II would be extremely diff
cult to secure legislation that would be
effective, and that upon the whole it
was impolitic and unwise to undertake
it. A report was made accordingly to
the caucus, and a resolution adopted
authorizing the presentation Of an
amendment providing in express terms
for the continuance in effect Of the terms
OF the Wilson law which makes II nm
lawful to form q trust in imported
articles

Points Out the Lines Upon which the Re-

The conditions are ripe for the recov-

is upon this generation to drive ignor-
ance. unblushing greed. official buck
stering and brutal thuggism out of the
temples Of our political life. We are to
restore discussion to our representative
assemblies. We are not to forget the
legitimate place and functions of par
ties. but We are to release the delegates
Of the people from the thralldom Of any
system which is a destroyer of parties
and Of representative government. We
must let managers know that we are all
in favor of organization, but Of organi-
cation that stands for something beyond
plumber, and 90 some responsible de-
gree lines up with established ira
ditions and reflects the sentiments of
the people. We are to make it clear
that legislation Is to be sympathetic
with religion. is to be promotive of all
the instrumentalities which advance the
culture of thepeeple and above
all is to grant no privileges which in
wade private rights and are not clearly
supported by general call.
I'VE are to protect wealth gained by
probity and thrift, and surely we are TO
respect the man who gains it; but We
are to notify the miliionaires and the
stockholders and the directors in cor
porations that if they undertake to use
their millions to gain special favors and
overthrow our political creed in mad
efforts to add other millions to their
stores, we will punish them like any
other miscreants who break down our
laws. We are to uphold the judges who
have brains and self-repose and the ju-
dicial spirit. and we are to take down
the other judges who permit themselves
to be carried around the country in fine
style by one of the parties to a pending
controversy. so that they may make or
ders of questionable character for the
advantage Of their host
