Lust Where Thou Art.

Just where thou art lift up thy voice,
And sing the song that stirs thy heart;
Reach forth thy strong and eager hand
To lift, to save, just where thou art.
Just where thou standest light thy lamp,
IT'S dark to others as to thee;
Their ways are hedged by unseen thorns
Their burdens fret, as thine fret thee.
Out yonder, In the broad full glare
OF many lamps, thine own might pale,
And thy sweet song, amid the roar
OF many voices, slowly fall;
While these, thy kindred, wandered on
Uncheered, unlighted to the end;
Near to thy hand thy mission lies,
Wherever sad hearts need friend.

But who can tell what lies beyond
That parting word "Good-by?"
We watch our dear ones as they pass
From our short sight, but. hopeful still.
We bridge the space 'twixt now and then.

They come no more to fond embrace,
They hear no more "Good-by."

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE presents some
pulling problems in science and natural his
tory, which involve valuable and practical
knowledge, and which, when worked out,
will add to the workers store of informa-
ton on the working of Natures great laws.
Answers to these should be designated by
number, as they are numbered, cOnsecutively
the answers given in future issues, and also
the names of the most successful SolverS.

THE HISTORY TOPICS.

Contributions Are Now in Order on the
First Subject.
The Secretary of the Loyal Home Workers,
Elsie Pomeroy McElroy, suggests that the
Loyal Home Workers enter upon the study
of history. Such course could be made
very profitable to the Loyal Home Workers
provided they are Wiling to do their part in
keeping up the intere$t. Let US hear from
as many as possible to are willing to take
up the study, eithef sibgly Or in local circles,
and who will contribute papers or comments
upon the series as il progresses All COM
munications pertaining to thus department,
Or any other in theoLoyal Home Workers,
should. in future, be addressed to the Secre-
tary, care of The NATIONAL TRIBUNE, VINO
will have charge of their publication If
sufficient interest is expressed in the history
stndy, the first number of the series will
begin with the first issue of The NATIONAL
TRIBUNE Of January 1893.
The topic in history for the first dis
cussions will be: Europe at the end of the
18th and the beginning of the 10th century"
This was wonderful period in the worlds
history. Columbus and other adventurous
sailors were opening up great regions of land
and sea. Gutenberg was working over his
printing presses and starting into life one Of
the greatest forces LIBERALIZATION and thought
Luther was stormlng away at the Pope and
his Greed. There were Henry VII, Henry
VIII, Edward, Bloody Mary, and gay Queen
Elizabeth. All and many more are to be
considered i'll this topic. For, by Studying
tins period one has IN mind, to understand
the beginnings Of our own Nation as Edward
Eggleston puts it. knowing Europe's con-
dition, the student begins to understand why
priests, trappers, traders advenlurers, for
tune hunters, colonists, and refugees came
TO our shores and began this Nation.
Short papers on this subject, treating it
generally or particularizlng on any one
phase or character, will be published if the
LII. W. members will send them in. Any
encyclopedias will furnish ample material
to study and ponder over, and an exchange
of ideas on the subjects from our well-known
friends will make the columns cheerful for
this holiday month. Will the members not
take hold?

RAILROADS APT TO RESIST.
THEIR LAWYERS FAVOR FIGHTING
THE FERTILIZER CUT.

Conference Hello by the Attorneys of
the Lines Interested, But No Com
clusiOn Reach ed-A Committee APP
pointed to Consider the Situation,
and Another Meeting TO he Held
Tomorrow.
Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 9.--The railroads have
not yet taken any definite action toward
resisting the order of the state railroad
commission cutting fertilizer rates 20 per
cent
To-day number of the attorneys for
the leading lines of the state held a con-
ference here, but arrived at no conclusion.
They met and conferred at the Aragon ho-
tel this morning, and took the matter up
again at another meeting this afternoon.
1t was finally decided to appoint COM
mittee to further consider the question of
resistance, and the committee of attorneys
Will hold another meeting on Monday.
The indications are that the railroads
will go into the courts to fight the reduc-
ton. None of the attorneys would give
any information as to what transpired
at the meetings to-day as they agreed
to remain silent until they are ready to
act
The disposition of the lawyers seems to
be in favor of the fight, but the trouble
on this score is whether the management
of the roads will agree with them and
back up the fight, or, rather, order it be-
gun, 1t is said that the attorneys have
put the case before the bondholders and
management for approval.

WEST INDIAN SUGAR INDUSTRY.
The British Commission Examining
Into Its Depression.

London, Jan. 9.--The commission ap-
pointed to examine into the depression In
the West Indian sugar industry has al
ready taken the evidence of Mr.. Lubbock.
Mr.. Alstone and other representatives of
the West Indian traders. The leading re-
commentator made by all the witnesses
thus nar examined has been In favor Of
countervailing duties to offset the boun-
ties paid to the continental makers Of beet
root sugar in the event of it being impos-
sible to arrive at an agreement with the
bounty-paying nations to abolish the
bounties. Statistics placed before the COM
mission show that while the population OF
the British West Indies increases at the
rate Of 1900 annually the sugar exports
have fallen q per cent in fourteen years.
The French sugar planters in Martinique
and Gaudaloupe are in as bad plight as
those in the British colonies. They have
memoralized the French government to
the effect that the French colonial sugar
industry is on the verge of utter ruin, and
demand that against the home bounty
system they shall be allowed a grant of
francs on every 100 Kilograms they ex-
port, whether to France or foreign coun-
tries. The English commissioners will
sail for Demerara on the steamer Don,
on Wednesday next.

HOLD-UP AT CHICAGO.
Three Men with RevOIvers Tap a
Crowded Saloon for $50.

NEOWutu StAiOOH AOE FoOs
Chicago, Jan. 9-Three men, armed with
revolvers held up saloon on State street
at $3.50 o'clock tonight, knocked the pro-
prietor unconscious, robbed the till of the
days receipts, walked out the front door
and escaped.
The saloon was well-hlled with custom
ers when the three robbers entered the
place. The highwaymen walked up to the
bar and ordered the proprietor, Alexan-
der Lewis. who was tending bar at the
time, to hand over the contents of the
money drawer. Lewis refused, and was
reaching under the bar for his pistol wnen
ne was struck on the back of the head
with a revolver and fell 10 the floor. One
of the men quickly ran behind the bar
and emptied the contents of the drawer,
$50, into little sack, while the other two
kept the crowd from giving the alarm.
When all was ready the men backed out
slowly and pingling with the throng on
the busiest part of Chicago's Bowery,
made their escape. The whole transact
ton occupied less than Ave minutes.
