The lazy man in politics is ever ready to
say in one breath This is Gods world,
and in the next, THE political world lieth
altogether in the wicked one; and be-
tween these two contradictory assertions,
like the man in the narrow lane with a
hostile bull before him and another
behind, he will take to the woods and
there rest.
To dispose OF argument we will grant
that God made the country and all the
physical manifestations of life around US ;
but social and political organization is
made by man, and by man is it to be
maintained, and by man is it to be i'm
proved and purified and by none other.
There is no evasion of this thought pos
sible to an honorable thinker. Do we
create a beautiful city and then utterly
neglect its constantly recurring needs be-
cause of our faith in the Almighty to keep
the stars in their courses? Do we work
out an intricate machine and then leave it
to run itself because other, higher law
maintains the majestic movements of the
planets?
Then neither ought heroic, ahead-of

PRESENT-DAY THOUGHTS
BY G. GRosvENoR DAVE.

The Lazy Man IN Politics.-A dreamer
in politics, who spins beautiful, unprac
teal yarns of things as they may some
day be, is bearable. He imparts color to
the drab life that too many of us see.
Dreams may, indeed. be made of stuff that
has neither texture nor warmth nor
weight, but like clouds they often speak
of light hidden, vet some day bound to
be revealed God bless the dreamers who
walk abstraetedly among us of more prac
teal calibre and see visions and foretell
changes. They have their place, and they
bring things to pass that are impossible
to men of little faith.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1898-10-26

But the lazy man in politics is a diff
ferent creature. He neither sees the
future nor cares for the present, except
that "in his time there shall be peace"
and be undisturbed. Like one man have
known with tainted well who had never
known of typhoid fever in the family,
you cannot arouse him nor shake into
him an understanding of the awakened
spirit of the day that demands service in
some form from every man, as requital
to society for the care and attention it
permits to surround him. He would
silence the drums and flies CT those who
do battle, for his eyes are closed in self
fostered laziness SO that he sees no hosts
to combat. He vacuously asks to be let
alone, for he does not believe in the power
of one solitary man. forgetting that en-
thusiasm and purpose have a selfmulti
plying element, so that when one man is
aroused he may find followers enough to
combat an army Of entrenched wrong.

God.

A fire mist and planet,
A crystal and a cell,
A jelly fish and saurian
And caves where the cavemen dwell,
Then sense of law and beauty
And face turned from the clod--
Some call it evolution,
And others call II God.
A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky;
The ripe, rich tints of the eornfields,
And the wild geese sailing high,
And all over upland and lowlahd
The charm of the goldenrod-
Some Of Us call it autumn,
And others call it God.
Like the tides on crescent seabeach
When the moon is new and thin,
Into our hearts high yearnings
Come yelling and surging in,
Come from the mystic ocean,
Whose rim no foot has trod-
Some of US call it longing;
Others call it God.
A picket from On duty,
A mother starved for her brood,
Socrates drinking the hemlock
And Jesus on the rood,
The million who, humble and nameless,
The straight. hard .,s..s.....ay tru,i--
Some call 1t conservation,
And others call it God.

Thalazy man in politics is like the I'M
grateful son who forgets the breasts that
nourished him, and would heartlessly
leave his mother to starvation and to fate
outside comfortable home inherited
from her.
The lazy man in politics is like the
traveller by rail, who will admire the
splendid safety devices of the block
system and the interlooking switches
that carry him unframed through be-
wildering freight yards, and then try to
evade the payment of his fare.
The lazy man in politics is the kid
glove voter, who, having heard that prac-
teal politics form a filthy pool, because
of his gloves and his own personal APP
pearance, will leave the pool untouched
no matter how vile its influence on the
day that now is, aud no matter how sin
lister its possible results in the day that is
to come
The lazy man in politics is the wooden
dummy upon whom the opposing office
holders can perform in safety their great
see-saw act of Gins and outs He is
the rich man who finds it too much trou-
BILE to vote, and then goes to much more
| trouble in order to play golf; or the poor
man who does not think it worth while
and is blind, since political conditions
| affect the very air he breathes and the
quality of the food he can put before the
hungry mouths of his children
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1898-10-26

The lazy man in politics, like the ldissee-
faire nobility OF France hundred years
ago, is the real source of anarchistic muir
murings. He it is who permits the stream
of ill-timed, i'll digested laws to pour in
contradictory terms in succeeding ses-
sions from our legislative halls; for he,
the lazy man, lets the vote OF freemen be
manRuvred in order to send to the last
place they are suited for, law-makers
whose acquaintance with law in some
eases has been only in the breach thereof.
1t is the neglect by lazy men in politics
that makes the great honest working
classes grumble at the antics of legal
acrobats, because they often fee Ahat
legislation is bought and sold, Az the
real interests of the people ruthlessly
neglected in order that the empty pocket
of a worthless law-maker may go home
full

There is an excuse for lazy men in the
politics of China or Russia or some other
emi-somnelent state, but there is no ex-
cuse for it here. This is that blessed home
OF dear bought freedom, where the voice
and power of the individual cannot be
suppressed-a country where the rewards
of political effort come to the active ones,
whether they be good men or bad. In so
vast country it is not well nor necessary
that we should all agree as to methods,
but we must agree as to means in con-
dncting its affairs-those means include
at the very outset to every man vote, and
back of every vote conscience.

lineage men to be permitted to work out
in blood and agony a system for giving
every man political influence, and their
successors neglect the sacred task and let
it fall to the ground. 1t would so fall IL

the helm of affairs and steer to mischance

Springs!

The Sullivan Hot Springs are
pleasantly situated only two
miles and a half above the town
of Clayton, near the South bank
of Salmon river. Then waters
are of a nice temperament for
bathing, and possess strong
medicinal qualities, sulphur pre-
dominating. This is fast becom-
ing a place of resort for invalids
and pleasure seekers. Mr.. Sui
livan has made a great many i'm
provements for the comfort Ct
his guests, but the leading at
traction must ever be it's healir g

A carriage for the conveyance
of guests will be constantly in
attendance, and all persons wish

are now complete and other
conveniences will be added.

Dawson City. While they were
making the necessary arrange
ments, the men led the horses to
the mouth of the cave, and after
a few hours of hard work they
had them packed with the ore.
A weary tramp followed, but
in a short time they reached
their destination. Upon the evil
dence of Elmer and Mr.. Fair
child, Carlo and Pedro were
court martialed and shot.
Elmer shipped his gold on a
steamer, and in company with
his father and his future bride,
Juliette, and mother, embarked
for America.

CHAPTER w.

Bidding the girl a hasty fare
well, father and son left the cave,
glancing back Elmer noticed the
startled look on Juliette's face;
she motioned for them to hasten,
then turned and hurried to her
fathers cabin.
Soon father and son emerged
into the clear moonlight, eagerly
they FASTENED toward the trail,
and in little while they were
trudging along toward Dawson
City.
Rough as the trip was, yet it
was liberty to the travellers.
Soon day began to dawn, seek
ing a place to camp, they laid
aside their pack and made pre-
parations for few hours rest.
They found level spot with
some brush near by, with this
they built fire and ate heartily
of the food prepared by Juliette
and her mother.
Rolling themselves in their
blankets they passed few hours
in sleep.
After a few hours had been
spent in sleep, they were awak-
ened by most peculiar sound
near camp. Springing quickly
to his feet Elmer discovered only
a few feet from them huge bear
with two young cubs. No tree
was near whereby they could
make their escape, only the fire
could be used as such a protec-
ton, not daring to shoot for fear
of wounding one of the cubs, thus
opening the way whereby the
mother bear would become en-
ragged. Some other means must
be invented whereby they might
get rid of their unwelcome as
we'll as vicious visitors.
Searching among his pockets
he found bottle of poison. with
this he soon spread bait for the
bear, then father and son replen-
ished the fire and awaited re-
suits.
In gathering up the crumbs
the bear soon found the poison;
by shifting around the men were
able to keep the fire between
and the animals.
In a short time the cubs were
seized with commissions and died.
The agony of the old bear was
intense. AT times it seemed as
though she would rush right
through the fire after the men,
then again she would turn toward
them such a beseeching look as
if appealing for help.
Hours passed by, soon she was
weakened by her own suffering,
and, nesting down by heI cubs,
she died.
Putting their traps together
they hastened on. A journey of
three days brought them within
the city. Everything and every
body WAS astir. Spring had
come and The city was crowded,
in fact they could hardly find
hotel accommodations.
After spending few days in
resting, Elmer started out to lay
his complaint before the marshal.
Upon careful examination The
msrshsl decided to accompany
Elmer to the home OF Gallo and
place him uDder arrest.
In a couple o. Gays with a force
of ten meo, with pack horses,
and Elmer IS .seide, they started
on their journey.
Elmer nad d;,2uised himself
i'll order to deceive Carlo and his
accomplicies.
