A RESPITE.

Wide sands and skies and~sea,
Wide sea-Sulls' wings;
Wind clean and fresh and free;
A wind that sings
A pure song in the ears of happy living
thingsl
Why this or that is so,
If wrong or right.
We VIII not seek to know.
But creep from sight
Of doubt, TO sleep upon the bosom of de-
light.
Between soft sand and sky
Days softly run,
We shall get leave to lie
Kissed by the sun.
Till we forget the world where sin is
dreamed and done.
Our dreams and deeds shall be
AS children's are;
We snail not seek to see
Life from afar,
Nor strive to plumb the depth nor to at
tain the star.
We will taste peace and say:
What thing WAS pain?"
The sea shah wash away
The years dull stain
And leave us. clean and young and glad
and good again.
We Snail not ponder or strive 10
Learn or be sad;
We shall but be alive
And shall be glad,
Even as though its fruit the Eden tree
still had.

twos, fives and higher denominations,
as his best Judgment may dictate.
This plan may or may not have the
approval of the president; if it has not,
it cannot be presented tc congress; if
it has, it is far from certain that con-
sress will give it any encouragement.
It is said the president will deal with
the currency question in his forthcom-
ing message to congress. He certainly
viii not do this without having con-
suited and come to an understanding
as to what should be recommended to
congress on the currency question. SO
that whatever plan Secretary Gage
may have for reforming the currency
VIII very likely be the presidents also
But what chance has the above plan
to receive favorable action by congress
We should say very little or none at
all. The hostility in the Republican
party to the retirement of the green
backs is great even to insurmount&bili-
ty. That party regards the greenbacks
as having done more TO save the Union
than did Lincoln, Grant and the Union
army. 1t is safe to say that it will
not consent to the retirement of the
greenbacks.
The silver men in congress will OPP
pose the plan in toto, for it is a single
gold standard scheme all the way
through and seeks to eliminate silver as
money, save what the country now has
1t will also meet with opposition from
them because it contempIates an eX-
tension of the national bank system.
And they viii never in the world con-
sent to the issue of government bonds
wherein it is specifically provided that
both principal and interest shall be
payable in gold.
If the above is Secretary Cages plan
as he intends to present it to congress,
we should say that 50 far as any chance
of its realization is concerned. it is an
iridescent dream.

THE FIGHT FOR SILVER.

Everywhere throughout the country
that a campaign is going on the silver
question is in issue a persistent effort
has been made to say that in Ohio the
question was no longer in issue, that
both Democrats and Republicans had
taciuy agreed to ignore it, but now
comes the word that it is the great issue
and that Mr.. Bryan is going to the
state TO take part in the campaign
III New York the silver question is in
issue and is declared to be by no less
a person than ex-President Harrison;
and Secretary Bliss says the same
thing. The reason is that the gold men
feel they must strengthen their victory

SHIP CAGPAR.
Thirteen Go Down, Leaving But Two
Survivors Who Had Nearly Sue

Point Arena, Cal, Oct 23.-Thirteen
seamen, comprising almost the entire
crew of the schooner Caspar. were
drowned early this morning by the
wreck of their vessel. The rocky shore
in this vicinity was strewn with wreck
age today. but there was no way Of
Identifying the ship until this evening.
when two men from shore who had
gone out in a small boat to rescue any
of the crew who might still be alive,
picked up Captain Anfndsen and Sea
man Chris Larsen, who had been float
ing about on an impromptu raft for
over Il hours.
To his rescuers. Adolph Peterson and
Henry Anderson, the captain of the
wrecked steamer said that the Caspar
struck on a reef at 1890 this morning
and seven minutes later caDSlzed. When
she tipped over all the members Of the

The sea has been so high all day that
it has been impossible to launch q boat

the breakers. Later in the evening the
steamer Alcazar cruised about the scene
