The Neihart herald. [volume] (Neihart, Mont.) 1890-1901, 1898-02-12

The last number of the Neihart
HERALD that came to our desk con-
tains CHEEKY article on the future
of that camp. 1t goes on to show
that the richness of its mines is now
a thing demonstrated beyond cavil,
and predicts that in a few years Nei-
hart will have population of s20,
900 souls, and prosperity come to
its business men and residents who
have SO bravely battled against all
sorts of encouragement. We like
the grit of these Neihart papers and
the Neihart people. The issue Of
the HERALD that contains this opti-
mistio, hopeful, CHEEKY article, had,
if we counted right, just seven OF
eight small display ads in its four
pages, and yet it was mighty good

TennYsOn's slim.


Lord Tennyson is in his Life" (vol-
ume 2, page l4) reported to have said
81 never put two SIS together in any
verse of mine. My line is not, as often
quoted:
Sand freedom broadens slowly down,
but:
"And freedom slowly broadens down"
On reading this / opened my Tennyson
casually, and the first piece saw was
"Sir Launcelot and Queen Guinevere, !"
which contains four instances of the
double s-namely:
Sometimes the linnct pipcd his song
She seemed part Of joyous spring,
As she fled
As she swayed.
The next piece is "The Farewell, {"
which has the line:
No more by thee my steps shall be.
The next piece is "The Beggar Maid, {"
which has the consecutive lines:
As shines the moon in clouded skies,
She i'll her poor attire was seen.
Thinking that perhaps Lord Tennyson
referred to his blank verse, l turned to
the Dedication of the Idylls,." in
which find these two lines:
Or how should England, dreaming of his sons,
and
Till Gods love set thee at his side again.
Lord Tennyson must, think, have been
unsupported. London Spectator.
