IT is denied that the Caucasian,
Senator Buffers paper, is to have a
finger in the public printing pie. As
we noted the rumor we give place to
the denial.

1T is said that the new tariff will
not raise enough revenue and that
we will have a deficit. This is likely,
if applied to the government. But
what about the trusts2 Will it not
give them more revenue and thus
help the Republicans to help their
friends?

The currency needs reforming.
Even the gold standard admirers
now admit as much. 1t is said that
Secretary Gage has a plan for this
reform, the main features of which he
has submitted to financiers in vari-
Gus parts of the country, with the
Injunction: Don't tell anybody.
Hurry up, Mr.. Gage, and let us know
your proposed way to relief.
The State Treasurer decides that
the penalty for non-paymento of taxes
applies to all taxes. Soft any citizen
of Forsyth fails to pay his poll or
property tax by the term of court
beginning November Both he will be
liable to Indictment, fine and i'm.
prisonment. This law, be it remem-
bered, is creation of the late Rep
Pop "reform" legislature. If en-
forced it will work great hardship to
many of our people.
In the State printing matter the
Council of State, in whose hands it
was placed, selects a partisan favor
lite for the job work and decides to
let the book work to the lowest bid
der. Why this discrimination? Is
it to skim off the cream for a pie
counter friend and then attempt to
fool the people with the lowest bidder
scheme upon what remains? This
appears to be the size of it. Watch
the cost of the printing for the next
two years.

Contractors Said to Have Violate d
Agreement with Brotherhood.
NEW YORK, June PA large
number of contractors who have en-
tered into settleme emit with the Broth
erhood of Tailors last week, have.
according to members prominent in
the Clothing Contractors Associa>
ton, ignored the new agreement,
closed their shops and turned their
employees adrift.
The number of contractors who
are said to have thus acted is set
down at 400, employing between
1000 and 1,500 operators. Leader
Schoenfeld characterized the state>
ment as a lie made out of whole
cloth. In the face of this denial a
huge force of idle tailors was found
congregated at the tailors' heads
quarters Many of them said they
had been locked out, and made no
concealment of fear entertained by
them that they were face to face
with another period Of idleness.

opened. The little ones of Childhood's

ROSY cheeks, bright eyes and buoyant

Childhood's Realm. Such batch of let
tiers this week from the boys and girls of
California your editress has never received

with enthusiasm for the work and play of

good resolves on the part of those who are

A venerable Indian arrow-maker ex-
planned how his arrows were poisoned in
the following words:
First we take bloated yellow rattle
snake in August, when he is most
poisonous, and tie him with forked
stick to stake; then we tease him until
ne is in a great rage. This is done by
passing a switch over his body from his
head to his tail. When he thrashes the
ground with his tail and his eyes glow
bright and sparkle like diamonds, We kill
a deer, antelope or some other small
animal, and, tearing out the liver.

it. The reptile will strike it again
and again, and pretty soon it will
begin to turn black. When he
tires, the snake is teased again, and he is
induced to sink his fangs into the soft
flesh until all the poison has been ex-
tracted from him and the liver is reeking
with it. He is ,hen killed and the liver
lifted with sharp pole. for so DANGEROUS
is it no one dares touch it. The liver is
let lie for abont an hour, when 1t will be
almost Jet black and emit sour smell.
Arrows are then brought and their iron
heads pushed into the liver up to the
shaft. They are left sticking there for
about one hour and half, when they are
withdrawn and dried in the sun. A thin,
glistening yellow scum adheres to the ar
row, and if it but so much as touches raw
flesh it is certain to poison it to death"
1 asked if Indians still used poisoned ar
rows. NO." he replied; mo man, In.
dian or white man, for years past has been
shot with these arrows, ana they are no
longer made"

CeaSy' E Dream.
FOR TINY FOLKS.

"Come, Teddy, it is time to go to bed, ]"
exclaimed Mrs. Wayman, as she picked up
the lamp and started toward the door.
Teddy wished to say, "Oh, mamma, please
let me finish this story" but he thought of
the little boy of WHOM he had been read
ing-a young lad who had been very
highly rewarded and honored for his
prompt obedience to his mothers wishes;
so Teddy closed the interes ting book and
followed his mamma to his room. He was
soon safely tucked in his little white bed
and well on the way to dreamland. Sud-
denly he found himself sitting on grassy
knoll, under a huge butternut tree, while
all about him lay the fine nuts. As he
reached out to take one he heard a sound
like the whirring of wings. and upon look
ing around saw standing by the most
lovely little lady he had ever beheld. She
was very tiny. just about loot high. She
had blue, blue eyes, and hair of gold.
Her graceful little figure was clad in a
dress of gauze, hung with dewdrops that
sparkled like diamonds in the sun.
On her wee feet were dainty slippers,
while on her pretty shoulders were snowy
wings.
"NoInor" she exclaimed. "You must

There's beautiful realm in this world Of ours
Whose years are builded of sunny hours
Whose waters unrutfled flow deep and Ct aar,
With never marsh, nor far, nor near;
Whose flowers talk volumes to those WI !neIl
In that beautiful place, sweet Childhood's

There all the people are free from care;
There is hardly one little unanswered prayer,
For the dear, kind Father of every child
Rules over that country with laws so mild
That every SUBJECT from trouble is free
In that beautiful land where we bide So wee"
All of its people are rosy and fair;
1 know they happy, for was there
A few short summers or so ago;
But the years rolled on, and then such woei
In prayer my hands did uplift
But out in the world was cast adrift.
What pity that we must leave that place
To wander forth and the wide world face,
With all lis folly, sin and care
With all the suffering we have to bear.
Why is il we cannot always dwell

when he left the house acted as if he were
greatly excited; also that she had heard
the sound of high pitched angry voices
during his visit. What could it mean
It's about money that the man paid Mr..
Dodge, do believe" said Clara. HE was
speaking this morning Of money he hoped
to receive to-day. Oh dear, Mr.. Dodge
must have figured it up very quickly and
made this mistakel Now, 1 see, he has
added part and subtracted partl What a
very strange thing to dol What shall
do" she continued. eff Mr.. Dodge were
not so stern 1 should not hesitate a
momen It," The girl mad little confidence
IN herself, and was trying hard to decide
what was best to be done, when Mrs.
Dodge called to her that she wished her
to go on an errand.
On her way home she saw Mr.. Dodge's
visitor OF the morning going into the vii.
lage hotel. The sight of him recalled the
mistake in the account.
HE doesn't look bit honest" she
thought. az certainly must tell Mr..
Dodge that he is being cheated before
that man has chance to get away"
By the time she had reached the house
she had determined to tell Mrs. Dodge SO
she might inform her husband, but the
lady said she was too busy when Clara
asked to speak with her few moments,
and sent the little girl out to cut flowers
for the parlor vases. Just as Clara was
placing some beautiful pink roses in her
basket, she happened to glance up and
there saw Mr.. Dodge walking peacefully
down the path toward her.
'Now or never" she thought, and so,
