I once knew all the birds that came
And neSted in our orchard trees,
For every flower I had name

1 knew what thrived in yonder glen;
What plants would soothe stone

Oh, was very learned then
But that was very long ago
1 knew the spot upon the hill
Where checkerberries could be found,
1 knew the rushes near the mill,
Where pickerel lay that weighed pound!
knew the wood-the very tree
Where lived the poaching, soucy crow,
And all the woods and crows knew me-
But that was very long ago.
And, pining for the joys OF youth,
l tread the old familiar spot
Only to learn that solemn truth;
I have forgotten, am forgot.
Yet there's this youngster at my knee
Knows all the things l used to know;
To think | was once as wise as he
But that very long ago.
I know tits folly to complain
OF whatsoe'er the fateS decree,
Yet, were not wishes all in vain
1 tell you what my wish would be,
I'd wish to be a boy again,
Back with the friends l used to know.
For l was, oh, SO happy then
But that was very long ago.

"The amount of bonds of this loan
issued under the authority of
the first section, of the act of July
1851 was, S5OO,OOO,OOO and
the remainder amounting to S136
321 $50, was issued in exchange
for 1905 Treasury notes. as auth
orized by the act of August 1861
So instead of S15O,OOO, 900 it
was only s5O,O0O,O00 that " was
subscribed for at par and paid for
in gold " as stated by the Secret
tary. Now let us see what the
Treasury says obout that " par -
business. The same page tells
the story land it is neither credit

Gage. Here it is, S44 1851 ,231 81

There associated bankers of New
York. Philadelphia and Boston, to
whom the Secretary points with
pride, charged the United States
nearly eleven per cent discount to
advanc it a pittance while it was
in the throes of revolution.
But what of Secretary Gage?
Can it be conceived that he
is so ignorant, as a banker even
of the facts ? Is it possible that
the Secretary, after his long career
as a money lender, did not know
these facts? The second edition
of the book, "National Loans of
the United States, twas issued in
1882. All the facts given above
were printed in the census of 1880.
No one can come to but one
conclusion which is that Secretary

masters, deliberately perverted the
facts in plain English lied

PLAIN LANGUAGE,

One Of our Washington, D. c.,
correspondents thusly deals with
Secretary Gage:
Mr.. Secretary Gage took advan-
tage Of an invitation to speak at one
Of the dinners given on Lincoln's
birthday to again exploit his finan-
cial themes. The speech was a
desecration of the day,the OCCASION
and the memory of Lincoln,
because Mr.. Gage endeavored to
shield his nefarius scheme of bind
iass2. his fellow countrymen in
chains to the golden chariots OF
the money Kings, by comparing
the situation and his policy with
the conditions under Lincoln and
the policy Of that man of the
people, who believed in the peo-
pie.
The Secretary Of the Treasury
says OF the war period:" Looking
backward now to the dark peri ID,
it is refreshingto remember that at
the first sale Of government bonds
occurring as it did after the depress-
ing fact of the first battle Of Bull
Run, one hundred and fifty million
OF these securities were.suscribed
fer at par and paid for in gold by
the associated banks of New York,
Philadelphia and Boston.

"A question that may eventually
grow to national proportions is
whether it would be proper or ad-
vlsable for Congress to regulate the
hours of labor in all the states.
Representative Lowering, of Mas
sachusetts, is the author of a Joint
resolution proposing an amend
ment to the United States cOnsti-
tuition authorizing Congress to
regulate the hours of labor in the
states. This resolution is before
the House judiciary Committee,
which has been hearing arguments
for and against it. The cotton
mills Of the South, against which
the resolution is aimed, or rather
against the long hours worked in
them, which it is claimed has en-
ablcd them to drive the New Eng
land mills out of many profitable
markets, sent a large delegation
of influential men to pro test
against the resolution. Reprcsen-
tatives Lowering and Walker, of
Massachusetts,, spoke for the reso-
luton, as did a representa- tive of

claring war is vested in Congress,
and not in the yellow journals
which have since the blowieg up
and destruction Of the battle-ship
Maine and the $50 Americans, in
the harbor of Havana, been bust
ly engaged in inflaming the public
mind and adding to the exist
ing excitement by publishing sem
sational manufactured stories for
the purpose of showing that the
terrible calamity was the result of
foul play on the part Of the Span
iards, and demanding all sorts of
ridiculous things from this gov
eminent, not the least Of which
was an immediate declaration of
war against Spain. They attack
and villify the administration in
every issue because it has assumed
that the explosion was accidental,
until It is otherwise proven.
There is grave suspicion that
there was foul play connected
with the blowing up of the Maine,
but there is no proof The only
way that proof can be had is by
investigation. And an Investigate
ion by naval officers has ovy pro-
vided for. 1t j. claimed by the
administration that it has made
pubic every telegram received or
sent since the first news of the
sinking of the Maine was received,
and that it intends to continue to

a scrap of evidence showing this
claim to be untrue. That Con-
gress, which is on the ground has
faith in the manner in which the
Executive branch of the govern
ment is handling this delicate and
trying case was shown by the
manner in which Senator Mason's
resolution, providing for Cong
ressional investigation, was re-

in war. If foul play is shown,
it certainly will. Therefore all
good citizens should join in trying
to keep down excitemen until the
truth is known. 1t has always

Judge CrumpaCker Rendered His
Opinion This Morning.
Injunction Modified and Continued
Until Further Order.
Injunction Against Plaintiff On Cross
Complaint OF Defendants withheld.
sAHDOvAL-sOEzALss MARRIAGE.

In anticipation OF a decision by Judge
Crumpacker In the injunction case Of the
Albuquerque Land & Irrigation company
Va. T. c. Gutierrez ct al, there was
large number Of people from the sur
rounding country at the court house this
morning.
Hon. Neill B. Field was present In be
half OF the defendants, and Judge N. @.
Collier for the plaintiff.
Judge Crumpacker said he had decided
10 allow the company TO 90 on and make
the survey, and he would modify the In
junction so as not TO be construed to re-
strain the people from using their lands
for agriculture, and said he would hold
that the company could not build the
canal until 1t proved that there was sur
plus water In excess Of that appropriated
by existing bitches.
He suggested that he would like ~ re-
fer the matter to Judge Lee, as mester,
TO take proof.
Mr.. Field, however, objected TO the tax.
ing Of any proof until the issues are
made up between the parties TO the case.
The Judge then agreed not to have any
proof taken except by the consent Of par
ties and requested counsel to draw up an
order In accordance with his decision.
Mr.. Field prepared the following order;

This cause having been heretofore
heard upon the temporary injunction
heretofore entered herein and the court
being now fully advised, IL is considered,
ordered, adiudged and decreed that the
said temporary Injunction be modified 80

prevent the defendant and their ass0-
eiates from using and enjoying their
lands for the ordinary purposes OF hus
bandry and agriculture, provided said
uses are not undertaken for the purpose
or design OF hindering, preventing or de
laying said survey, and that no such use
or enjoyment shall be construed 10 be an
interference with the survey sought TO be
made by plaintiff and as 80 modified II
is ordered by the court that the said In
| junction be continued until the further
order OF this court.
II Is further considered by the court
that action on the application by the dc.
PENDANTS for an Injunction against the
plaintiff on their cross complaint be
withheld until such time as the said
plaintiff shall attempt TO exercise
the right OF eminent domain OF
TO cause the construction OF the
proposed canal In said cross complaint
mentioned and with leave 10 the defend
ants and their associates TO then bring
the same 10 the attention OF the court.
IL Is further considered and ordered By
the court that the plaintiff plead TO th'
answer and oss-c0mplaints OF the de
PENDANTS within twenty days from thl
2lst OF January, 1893.
Judge Collier has agreed to all OF l
excepting the last clause. on which Their
is small difference between him AM

to Judge Crumpaeker at 10 o'clock to
