After All.

A generation ago there appeared in
Vanity Fair" with which the name OF
Artemus Ward was identified the follow.
ing poem on the civil war. 1t will bear
republication ct this time. The name OF
the author is William Winter. 1t was en-
titled After ALL and is eloquent in It's
simplicity and the picture of domestic
grief it presents:
The apples are ripe in the orchard,
The work of the reaper is done,
And the golden woodlands redden
In the blood of the dying sun.
AT the cottage door the grandsire
Sits pale in his easy chair.
While the gentle wind of twilight
Plays with his silver hair.
A woman is kneeling beside him,
A fair. young head is pressed
In the first wild passion Of sorrow
Against his aged breast.
And far from over the distance
The flying echoes come
OF the warlike blast of trumpet
And the rafting roll of drum.
And the grandsire speaks in a whisper
The end no man can see;
But we give him to his country.
And we give our prayers to Thee"
The violets star the meadows,
The rosebuds fringe the door.
And over the grassy orchards
The Dink-white blossoms pour.
But the grandsire's chair is empty,
The cottage is dark and still;
There's a nameless grave in the battle
field,
And a new one under the hill.
And a pallid, fearless woman
By the cold hearth sits alone,
And the old clock in tho corner
Ticks on with steady drOne.

ANOTHER NAIL DRIVEN.

Our morning contemporary seems to
have let all holds go and plunged into
prevarication with an abandon SO reck-
less that further remonstrance would
seem out of the question.
Its leading editorial yesterday morn
ing was as full of falsehood as an egg
is full of meat. 1t said that, after the
Democrats carried Salt Lake county,
mot one Republican was given place,
and the last one who had a place, even
down to janitor, was fired. that the an
cient mossybacks might. be provided
for
It resents the plea of falling memory
entered in its behalf. Then it doesn't
forget. 1t knows. And it wilfully mis-
represents. 1t made the assertion
quoted in the full knowledge that Mr..
George ID. Loonis was retained a year
as deputy clerk.
1t made that unwarranted charge,
knowing that Miss Reedall still retains
the position in the clerks office she held
under the Republican administration;
knowing that Miss Liggan still occu-
pies her place in the clerks office;
knowing that Miss Anderson remained
over a year in the same department
she was IN with Clerk Stanton; know
ing that w. o. Carbiss is still in the
county treasurer's office; knowing that
Boman Cannon remained with the
sheriff until offered a position under the
non-partisan administration.
1t knows these things, but the knowl-
edge does not deter it from saying that
the last Republican down to the jan
itor" was fired.
But the most marvellous misrepresen-
tation of fact is in regard to Miss
Sprague. who certainly deserves a bet

Utah Republicans who hope to secure
the reconciliation of silver through a
local, rather than national organiza-
ton, ought to follow the Tribune and
take up it's war cry of Death to De-
mocracy." That may not be in accord
with the people and the best interests
of Utah, but. next to gold platform,
that will suit Mark Hanna best.

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS.

Houston Post: If bimetallism is desir-
able for the country, or if any man be-
lieves it so to be and that it is the para
mount issue before the American people

party the only party making free coin

Death of Prominent Lady-Negro Boy
Fell Thirty Feet but was not Hurt.
Scotland Neck, n. c., JAM 6.-(Spe
cial)-AIrs. w. X. White, a lady of'prom
inence in her community, died at her
home six miles in the country this week
Her remains were inferred in the Epis-
copal cemetery here yesterday. She was
sister to Capt. w. II. kitchin and left
n large circle of family relatives outside
of her own immediate family. A hus-
band and several sons and daughters
survive her.
A colored boy, named Norwood Jones,
fell from the tank at Hotel Lawrence,
a distance OF about 30 feet ON frozen
ground, but. strange to say he was not
badly broken up and is getting along
right well.
There was vigorous fire alarm at
Hotel Lawrence last night about 10
o'clock. The guests poured out in great
numbers and soon the hotel was literally
alive with people from the ground to the
top. There was a heavy smoke from
one of the fues, but no fire Of any dan
ger.
The Populists are still saying here
that they are coming back to the Demo

with them and will work this year for
the success of the Democratic party.

Chapel Hill, n. c., Jan. 6.-(Special.) y
A pleasant episode transpired at the
University Chapel exercises this morn
ing, which most appropriately and au-
spicuously inaugurates the second
terms work. A new oil portrait of DR..
G. f. Deems was hanging in the center
over the rostrum. DR.. Manning stepped
forward and presented it to DIR. Alder
man, as a gift to the University, by
Mrs. /. r. Faison, of Faison, n. @. DR..
Manning in a few we'll chosen words
sketched the life and work of DIR. Deems
his connection with the University as
instructor in 1Sf7--the books he pub
lished-his starting the Deems Fund,
las an aid loan fund 10 students helping
themselves in memory of his son. Mr..
and Mrs. I. r. Faison revering his
memory wished to place this token here
-the work of their niece land adopted
daughter), Mrs. NJ, Nc d. Williams.
President Alderman accepted it with
tender words as gift to be placed
among our treasures-a face upon which
we could look as friend, exemplar and
noble benefactor He said he was over
whelmed with the work of DR.. Deems
in lending hand here to help--that this
lis the truest Immortality and cannot
pass into forgetfulness"-hi benefaction
will work on silently night and day
blessing as time goes.
Most of the old students are back,
and about twenty-five new men in all
departments. The work moved off
promptly and smoothly, and most au-
spicious term is begun.
The professors enjoyed brief respite,
some going away and some Semaining.
Professor Butler to Athens, Ga; DR..
Linscott to his fathers, in Chicago; Drs.
Venable and Baskerville to the Nation

The Chapel Fill high school also opens
well with Iii the first day.
A pleasing thing to look forward to
is DR.. Walter Moore's visit to preach
and lecture very soon.
