To the Golden Wedding of Mr. an,
Mrs. Jas. j. Kelly.

Miss Frances J. Dyer.
You pause awhile this happy day,
To send your memories back,
And bring again the vanished years,
Along ife's misty track;
You'll call to mind the bygone days,
"Those good old times"-you know,
When all was grand, and pure and true,
Just fifty years ago.
You'll gather in your happy home,
The dear parental nest,
Which through the sunshine
and the storm
Our Fathers love has blest;
You'll count the sorrows and the joys
In LIES uneeasing flow,
Back to the hour your home began,
Just fifty years ago.
The men and women of that age
Were hearty, strong and bold;
They went to meeting stayed all day =
Through sternest winter cold;
They sat and raped their aching feet,
To make the warm blood flow;
They blew their frozen finger-ends,
Just fifty years ago.
One Of the questions Of that time,
O'ef which debate waxed hot,
Was that great question, fresh and new,
To have a stove or not;
@Our fathers used no stoves in church,
Then why should we do sou
That was the way they looked at things
Just fifty years ago.
Our fathers used no stoves in church,
But still our mothers did;
Those little square tin boxes,
In which the fire was hid;
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1898-01-08


Men paused as he went by,
To pay graceful courtesy,
And look with reverent eye.
And sehool-boys. as they sawhim come,
Arranged themselves in row,
And made him their profoundest bow,
Just fifty years ago.
Those square, hieh-baeksd,
old-fashioned psws,
With open work about,
Through which small boys
could push their heads,
But could not pull them out;
We shall noises the like again,
Wherever we may 60,
They're lost and gone
those queer old pews
OF fifty years ago.
To keep awake in summer time,
We helped tie feeble will,
BY eating generous quantities
OF fennel and Of dill;
Orto the woods, in pious crowds,
We used at noon to 60,
And pick the fresh young winterereen
Just fifty years ago.
Up stairs, on one side, sat the girls,
On one side sat the boys,
They sometimes caught each others eyes
But did not make noise;
They were afraid they might wake up
The old folks down below;
That was the way boys looked at things
Just fifty years ago.
II you have any modem boys
Among your guests tonight,
To hear about those good old times"
When all the boys did right:
As soon as they have heard the tale,
Just ask them all to 20,
And initiate those noble boys
OF fifty years ago.
Enough, enough, those good old times
Deserve tenderer strain,
For then, as now, earth's pursst joys
Were mixed with keenest pain;
And youthful eyes, that
then shone bright,
With radiant hope aglow,
In all their light, were quenehed in death,
Back fifty years ago.
How many, on the right and left,
Have dropped their heavy load,
And vanished from your mortal sight,
Along life's weary road!
We are but strangers on the earth,
And pilgrims here below,
We journey, as our fathers did,
Just fifty years ago.
This world is not Our resting place,
We tarry but day,
The fair and shining shores we seek;
Though near, seem far away,
The crowding generations come,
And generations 60,
And life ana death are mingled still
As fifty years ago.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

We hope that prompt action will
be taken by the Tobacco Fair
authorities upon the suggestion
made by THE SENTINEL that the
County Fair, heretofore held at Oak
Grove, be consolidated with the To
bacco Fair and held in Winston.
AS we have stated, the more cen-
trail location for the County Fair
would enlist the interest of a greater
number of our country friends and
in every way enlarge the proportions
of the undertaking.
The addition to our Tobacco Fair
of the departments incident to an
agricultural exhibit would be a very
attractive feature and would prove
valuable, also, in directing attention
to the varied resources of our imme-
date section and show to the thous-
ands of visitors that tobacco is not
by any means the only product in
which we excel.
The County Fair adjunct could bt
made as complete and as excellent al
any other department of our big
exposition and we hope that TIT
consolidation will be effected. If il
is accomplished it should be dom
promptly, in order that our farmer
may, in gathering their crops, hav,
an eye to saving the biggest ant
best tor exhibition at the CRANE
Tobacco and Agricultural Fair.
For sometime we have thought i
would be advisable to hold tn
| County Fair at Winston, the count,
seat, but we have not advocated
because our Oak Grove friends insti-
/ tuted the Fair and it is largel
through their efforts that it has bee
maintained in an admirable manner
and we did not want to antagoniz
their wishes. Now we are assure
that the removal will be entirel
satisfactory to the management an
we trust no time will be lost in COZ
summarizing an object SO desirable.

ment to commemorate the sacrifice

ensign who was the first to fall in the

menced TO pour in from almost every

Since the last gun of the great
American conflict was fred at Apo

cies at work in this country seeking
TO heal the wounds of sectional
strife; but we hazard nothing in say
ing that the death of Ensign Bagley
under the peculiar circumstances
which surrounded that event has
accomplished more toward making
this desired result possible than has
aught else.

THE decision of Judge Simonton
that the Stanly county bonds are
legal and must be paid, appears to
be along the line of common honesty.
1t seems that the purpose for which
the bonds were issued was attained
and that the resistance of payment
was based upon a technicality,
which did not effect the moral obi
cation, even if it had prevented pay
ment under the law. AS we see it,
this is fortunate decision and will
tend to counteract the effect of the
effort to get away from meeting a
just obligation by legal bubble.

Charlotte Observer.
The statement in yesterday morn
ing's Raleigh correspondence, credit
ed to Democratic State Chairman
Simmons, that the impeachment of
Governor Russell 10y the next Legis-
lature els n certainty" is startling;
and it is added that this does not
appear to be dependent upon either
party, Republicans being al anxious
for 1t rs Democrats. Certainly n
Legislature could do nothing more
to its credit than to relieve the
executive office of this wrong headed,
passionate, dreadful man, and for
ever disquality him from voting and
holding office. We sincerely believe
he is n lunatic.
