flee have been kept on the jump TO keep

Labor Commissioners Grout furnishes
some very interesting figures, showing the
condition Of the work as ii is now carried
on by the office, and the work as IL was
for the last two years. The total number
OF positions furnished to men and women
for the month of September exceeds that
of August by 400. and this does not include
the hop-pickers who were sent out from
that office. OF these there were 9S5. max
ing a grand total OF positions which the
ONCE furnished the public this month ag-

the entire work done by that department
in the year 1896.
At this rate they will have sup
piled by the end of the year near

HIS DISCOVERY.

He gazef at the slender lines
That had fcrrnei upon her brow
And ne saw a gt4stensng hair
That had fastened itself. some how
Among the locks that were golden brown.
And ne thought OF tae years that had
passed:
SHE had once been slim and trim and fair.
Bat her youth was gone at last,
The roses were gore frnm her cheeks,
Tie sparkle had left her eyes;
He sat and CARED at her face
Ard was filed with sad surprise.
Day after day he watched,
And he sighed day after day
As other and deeper wrinkles came
Ard the brown locks turned to gray.
''She is growing old" ne sighed:
she has pc ssei on ahead Of me:
! haven. the heart 70 tell her so.
Though others must surely sees''
But the thing that the world beheld
And the thing that ha never knew
Was tha. Age had struck with a heavy
hand
And marred his features. too.

The experience the people of this

warning to them not to take such
chances a second time. The state is
very much in need Of some remedial
legislation. but 1t is equally In need
OF protection against the cinch bills
which were Introduced last time for
no other purpose than to brighten cor
porattons into taking steps" TO pre-
vent the passage OF the bills. What
steps were taken can only be inferred
from the scathing denunciation OF the
members made by two or three Popu
lists who were honest and In earnest
