MEMORIAL DAY--APRIL 26, 1898,
MRS. FANNY r. NIGH.

We gather the snowy blossoms
The forests of the Spring,
And we breathe their dewy fragrance
While we hear the wildbirds sing.
Then we think of the valiant heroes,
OF those who wore the gray,
That the country loves to honor
On each Decoration Day.
There they lie in peaceful slumber.
While the music softly plays,
And the loyal words are spoken,
Giving them full need of praise.
So we gather fragrant roses
For the heroes true and brave,
And with reverent hands we lay them
On each gallant soldiers grave.
If they could be in life again,
And if they only knew
That cruel war was here once more.
What course would they pursue?
Would they avenge the victims brave
Of treachery and hate,
And would gladly punish cruel Spain
For their untimely fate.
And would they think of Cuba's wrongs
If they were here in life?
And march again to the call to arms
And the sound of the drum and fife ?
Or would they rather peace would reign
In their beloved land,
And leave all future punishment
To an all-powerful hand =?
But they have gained eternal rest,
Their trials all are done.
No sounds of war can mar their sleep,
Their battlefields are won.
And we must hope for victory,
And all united pray
That no new warriors graves be here
On next Memorial Day.

Lahor ANA PoIitics.

In these days of strange happen
ings when the American people are
threatened with a subversion of
their time honored principles of
government and establishment of
imperialism and militarism in their
stead, it is not matter for wonder
that a labor organization hitherto
so conservative as the American
Federation of Labor should discuss
the advisability of entering politics
on the socialist platform.
But those who urge this depart
ure are hasty and wrong.
When the Federation shall enter
the political field as an organiza
ton it will be the beginning of the
end of its usefulness and power to
protect the rights of labor.
1t can best conserve its power for
good by keeping its organization
free from partisan politics and in
huences and by judicioos endorse
ment of policies and principles
looking to the best interests not
only of labor but of all the people.
as laid down in the eternal princi-
pies of Democracy, and by encour-
aging, working and voting for those
principles it's members may hope
to accomplish speedily and through
regular channels the things which
they could not bring about in

tic agitation Wheeling Register.

Our regiment seems to have the

where we go the question is sure
TO be asked-Are you a West Vir-
ginian? However, notwithstand-
ing the warm climate and beauti-
full grounds, our boys, as u whole,
are rot as well satisfied here as
they were at Camp Meade-but
then it is no wonder, for our own
home people of old Mason, could
not have been better to us than the
good people of Pennsylvania. And
just here L might say that several
of Uncle Sam's boys are anxious to
be mustered out, that they may re-
turn to the Cumberland Valley.
