manufacturing, expending their
efforts in the leaves and branches
of the national tree, while they
should begin at the roots. The
leaves and branches of our ma
tional tree are the manufacture

der our protective system, are
the agricultural classes.
The Republican party, if it
wishes to prove itself worthy
of the trust that the American
people has placed, in it, it must
pass such legislation as will nour-
ish and give new life to the roots
of the nation tree.
Legislation passed in favor OF
the manufacturing classes will
not revive those industries dur.

MEMORY.

A tangled garden, bleak and dry,
And silent meath dark ming sky,
Is all that barren Age retains
OF costly Youths superb domains.
Mute in its bosoms. cold and lone.
A dial watches, on a stone;
The vines are sere, the haggard boughs
In dusky torpor dream and browse;
The paths are deep with yellow leaves,
In which the wind of evening grieyes;
And up and down, and to and fro,
one pale gray shadow wanders slow.
When now the fading sunset CLEANS
Across a glim'rng waste of dreams;
When now the shadows eastward fall,
And twilight hears the curlew's call;
When blighted now the lily shows,
And no more bloom is on the rose;
What phantom of the dying day
Shall gild the wanderers sombre way
What new Illusion Of delight
What magic, ushering in the night?
For, deep beneath the proudest will,
The heart must have its solace still.
All, many a hope too sweet to last
Is in that garden of the Past,
And many a flower that once was fair
Lies cold and dead and wither'd there;
Youths promise, trusted Friendships
bliss,
Fame's laurel, Loves enraptured kiss,
Beauty and strenEth--the spirits wings
And the glad sense of natural things,
And times that smile, and times that
weep
All shrouded i'm the cells of sleep:
While o'er them careless zephyrs pass,
And sunbeams, in the rustlng grass.
".
So ends II all: hut never yet
Could the true heart of love forget
And grander sway was never known
Than his who reigns on Memory's throne. I.
Though grim the threat and dark the
froWn
With which the pall of night comes down,
Though all the scene be drear and wild,
Life once was preclous-once it smiled
And in his dream he lives again
With ev'ry JOY that crowned 1t then,
And no remorse of time can dim
The splendor of the Past for him!
V.
The sea that round his childhood played
Still makes the music once IL made
And still in Fancy's chambers sing
The breezes of eternal Spring;
While, thronging youths resplendent
track, '.t
The princes and the queens come back,
And everywhere the dreary mould
Breaks into Natures green and gold!
1t Is not night-or, II II be,
So let the night descend for me,
When Mem'ry's radiant dream shall cease,
And slowly languish into peace.
William Winter.

0Ov. Mr.. Duke also told the commit
tee that previous To the formation OF
the American Company. the five manu-
factories which organized the COM
pany, employed 3.ls1 workmen. They
now employed 1919 workmen. The fssc-
tories which had been leased by the
company formerly employed 2.1la work
men. The American Company employ
ed 5.S15 workmen i'm the same work. or
total OF 9.lsf employees, as compared
with 5.S95 in the employ OF the mauu-
factories forming or subsequently,
leased 10y the company.
On cross examination, Senator Tx
ow said that President Duke testified
that at the time Of the investigation
there were NOR than 100 manufar-
turers OF paper cigarettes out
side of the company. some Of
whom manufactured machine made.
while others manufactured handmade
cigarettes. Reading from the copy Of
the testimony, taken before the coui-
mittee, Mr.. Fuller brought out admls-
sions by Senator Lexow that President
Duke had testified that only paper ci-
garet:es were sold under the consiEn-
ment agreement. while other goods
were sold on a different plan. He also
said that some times this arrangement
was withdrawn when the company was
satisfied that the terms of the agree
ment had been violated. Mr.. Duke had
testified that the terms OF he aEree-
ment had been violated. Mr.. Duke had
also testified thar before the organiza-
ton of the American Company paper
cigarettes were sold at cost and then
this plan was changed in order to give
customers a share i'm the profits. Sena-
tor Lexow also said that MIR. Brown.
after stating that the black list" Was
apparently correct. said that the ma
Jority of these dealers were cut off from
the use Of cigarettes made by the com
pany, because they cut prices and that
each case stood by itself.
On redirect examination. Senator
Lexow said that President Duke had
testified that between 600 and 900 en-
ployes had been thrown out OF employ
ment by the loyirg of three factories
when the American Company was
formed. About one-half of these en-
ployes were re-empioyed in other fac
tories by the board OF the American
Company.
Mr.. Olcott offered in evidence the Of
ficial record Of the proceedin~s before
the chancery court in New Jersey i'm
1884, to dissolve the American Tobacco
Company. A number Of the officers OF
the company filed answers in this COM
plaint and William A. Butler who was
then secretary OF the company. also
filed an answer. Mr.. Olcott announced
that the case for the prosecution Was
practically closed. He had one or two
witnesses still to call but their testi-
mOny would be brief and the defense
would have the opportunity Of opening
tomorrow.
