THE SAXoNS.

/ We sing of the fame of the Saxon name.
| And the spell of its worldwide power.
OF its triumphs vast in the glorious past,
! And the might of the rising hour;
And our bosoms glow, for we proudly
with the flag of Right unfurled.
That the strength and skill of the Saxon
Is bound to rule the world.
And we glory not in the empty thought
| That the Saxon arm is strong
Nor alone to know. tho tbs surely so.
: That the seas to her belong.
But this our pride. with Wrong defed.
And the sin-cloud backward hurled.
That the word of God. our triumph rod,
Is bound to rule the world.
In days of yore from the Saxon shore
Our sea-bOrn fathers came
They conquered then by the might Of
And sword and spear and flame:
| But TO US tbs given by the voice of
heaven
With the peace flag far unfurled.
In our Unions might, by the power Of
To rule, meath God, the world.
In the olden time there were deeds SUBJ
And dear-bought victories won;
For the hearts were true on the heaving
blue
Or behind the fortress gun;
And the championed Right in their rising
might
With their war-hags old unfurled;
Yea, Wrong went down meath the Saxon
frown
But its smile shall rule the world
And perchance of old if the truth be told.
There were brother hearts estranged;
But the wound is healed and the friend
ship sealed
AS the years have upward ranged.
Let the tale Of wrong. now dead so long,
With the old war-fiags be furled;
For a peace sublime, in the coming time,
Is bound to rule the world.
IT'S a mighty dover, this earth-wide
power,
And a mighty task involves:
With our hearts steel-true, let US hold in
view
The might of our high resolves:
Let US stand for Right in our races
might,
With our fearless flag unfurled:
For the might of Love from our God
above
Is bound to rule the world.

A FEW PLAIN FACTS.

Our morning contemporary has a
/ cunning way Of making ambiguous
general denials to plain, specific ale
cations.
! Since it's return to the goldbug organ
/ ization, and its endorsement Of the Re
publican party without a silver pre-
! ix. the Tribune has begun to refer to
the silver issue as a sectional question.
This is what the Hannaites have al
ways held. But it isn't true. Bimetal-
ism is just as important TO the peo-
pie OF the east as 10 those of the west.
And every day they seem to realize it
more and more
Away back in the hide-bound. rock
ribbed region of New England the sill
yer sentiment is growing. IN the Yer
mont campaign, which ended this
week, the fight was made on the ques-
ton of free coinage. The Democrats
had endorsed the Chicago platform
and the Republicans had reaffirmed
that of St Louis.
The election returns are just in. They
show Republican losses and Demo-
cratic gains. There is a world of hope
for silver coinage in the result of the
Vermont election. Only goldbugs and
pseudo-silverites will withhold from
the Democrats of Vermont the credit
and encouragement to which they are
entitled for this glorious achievement
in their state campaign
There was a time when the Tribune
was willing to acknowledge a point
gained for silver. But that time is gone.
It has other fish to fry, now. 1t is
member of an organization whose
motto is Anything to beat the Dem
ocrats" That is the battle cry of ey-
cry goldbug in America. II is Hanna's
hope and the Tribune's prayer.
On the very day that our contem-
porary printed the news from Vermont
it contained the following editorial
comment:
\ contemporary is seeking with
much energy to convince itself and the
public that Democratic platforms are
enthusiastically indorsing the Chicago
platform, while Republicans are en-
thusiastic for the st. Louis platform
1t is not true.
Let us see whether it is so or not
Let the Tribune deny any of the fol-
lowing assertions, if they are untrue:
Every. Republican state convention
held this year up to this very morning,
has endorsed the policy of the admin
istration and reafiirmed the St. Louis
platform. viii our contemporary
deny it2
Every Democratic state convention

A WORD OF WARNING.

It has been suggested that in order
to regalvanize the fusion proposition
in Weber county, an effort is to be
made to change the wording of the
call for the convention to nominate
county and legislative candidates so
that any voter who will say he is in
favor of the free coinage of silver can
take part in the primaries.
The state Democratic committee has
prescribed the qualifications of the vot-
ers who may participate in Democratic
primaries. and none save those who
can subscribe to that qualification can
be recognized.
To modify the call as suggested would
admit Mckinley Republicans, because
in this state they do not hesitate to de-
clare that they are for silver, protec-
ton, reciprocity, McKinley's admins
tration. and the St Louis platform.
If it is not required of those who
participate in the Democratic prima-
ries, that they endorse the Chicago
platform, and agree to support the
nominees of the Democratic party, we
might as well become non-partisans at
once.
The Democratic party in this state
has been as liberal in it's call as it is
reasonable to expect, and the. men and
women who cannot subscribe to and
support the party principles as enun-
ciated, are not entitled to participate
in the primaries or conventions; and
to pursue the course suggested would
mean cutting loose from the state or
ganization.

TALES OF THE DAY.
Pingree,s Appointment.

A year or so ago. Governor Pingree and
Railroad Commissioner Wesselius sat
side by side in Detroit, Grand Rapids
Lansing says the Detroit Free Press. A
number of the political friends of the
governor sat nearby, and Mr.. Pingree
took advantage of the opportunity to air
his views concerning corporations, the
Michigan Central road, the Michigan-Pe-
ninsular Car company, etc.
Now, take our millionaires." he went
on. I'VE have 4 lot Of them-men with
plenty of money and credit, but at heart
very cheap For example, there's David
Ward. That man is worth $4,000 600. but
did any one ever hear of his giving a
dollar of it for charity2 Not much. The
bulk of his property is outside the city,
yet we have 10 force him to pay the
comparatively small assessment. He is
a misery old slSinflint."
Presently Wesselius had occasion to
leave his seat to talk to a man in an
other part of the car. a little old chap,
with bent form and wrinkled face, had
sat near the governor during the talk,
an attentive listener. He now left his
seat to move over and slide into the va
cancy left by Wesselius.
Il take it that you are the governor,
Mr.. Pingree. he began, insinuatingly.
Il have never had the pleasure of meet
ing you, but have seen your picture
Yes, l am the governor"
well, ] want to say, Mr.. Pingree, that
/ have listened closely to what you had

The governor was tickled at this and
at once launched out into general con-
versation. They touched on the corpora
tons again, and various other matters,
and the governor was surprised to find

A DAY FOR DIPLOMACY.

There Will be a Heterogeneous conven-
tior> of amalgamated Republicans he'd
in this city today McKinleyites and
/ Bryanites, Cannonites and Lannanites,
Levites and Hfttites, will assemble at
the love feast.
/ Men who believe in the single gold
standard will sit with those who claim
to work for the double standard. Ad-
vocates of silver and champions of gold
: will meet and smoke the pipe of pro-
lection. The financial hatchet will be
buried and a banner viii be raised with
this inscription: Anything to beat the
Democrats
The man who repudiates the doctrine
of tariff protection and denounces
Dingleyism as form of robbery will
have followers among the delegates;
and the one who holds the tariff is
sue paramount will be there in all his
glory. There will be Philippines and
ti-annexationists; those who bolted
the ST. Louis convention and those who
remained; some who voted for Bryan
and others who voted for Mckinley.
But harmony will prevail. The
chances of success are not great enough
to fight over. A silver plank to suit the
goldbugs will be inserted in the plat
form An Endorsement of Mckinley
that silver men can swallow will con-
stitute the set-off.
Diplomats will be developed at this
Republican state convention. It is a
delicate thing to endorse Ayers con-
duct of the war without discrediting
the stories of the volunteers. But Re
Dublicans are almost sure to make the
attempt. The best way to declare both
for bimetallism and a single standard
viii have to be determined.
However, it viii not be more difficult
than to endorse protection and free
trade at the same time. For reciproc-
ity. is nothing but free trade in dis
guise. 1t is sort of free trade in
which the administration designates
the customer instead of allowing the
American trader to select for himself.
On local state issues our Republican
friends might point with pride" to the
non-partisan movement, or view with
alarm" the publication of Hanna's epis-
tie to the Miilerites.
If sincere silver men and honest gold
bugs can work together this year in a
congressional election it will be a veri-
fication of that lamb and lion story
If there is lack of sincerity on either
side there will be harmony anyhow. In !

THE LONG FAREWELL.

| It is finished. Yesterday a loving
people paid their last respects to an
honored leader. A sorrowing multitude
bade final adieu to all OF the mortal
that remained of a revered president.
From first to last the ceremonies
were appropriate and impressive. The
perfect adaptation of the immense
tbrong to the spirit of the occasion, its
quiet. considerate mood, could have
come from no other than the purest
sentiments of profound respect. This
may be attributed in some degree to the
high position in the community left
vacant. but the most Of it was a trib-
ute TO the amiabIe disposition of the

When the aged die. when one lays

shadowy cushion of long-sought ease,
with the music of hope in his ears and
the breath of consolation tanning his
withered cheek. it is not for friends to
grieve.
And yet. there is something so mex
pressibly sad in the parting, so cheer
less in the cold, damp grave. to which
the feeble form must be consigned, that
tears are shed and hearts are panied
when the aged die.
Children weep, for it was their father
Friends weep. for they sympathize with
sadness. The community bows its head
in respect. Memories are awakened in
the minds of the people. The dead had

before their eyes. They had seen the

well.

ANY SORT OF FUSION.

A Republican organ expresses hyp-
ocritical regret that fusion in the
| interest of silver" was not effected dur
/ ing the brief period it favored such an
arrangement. Inasmuch as that organ
was the chief advocate of fusion there
was always some doubt as to whether
it would remain constant to the idea
long enough for any sort of co-opera-
ton to be brought about And the fact
that fusion was urged in the interest
of an individual rather than principle
naturally made it unpopular.
But this alleged champion of fusion
with Democrats, suddenly and suspic-
iously- began to urge fusion with Nc
Kinleyites. Nothing further was need
ed to show that the distrust with which
its proposals were first met were toler-
ably well founded.
The silverite, man or newspaper, who
can preach fusion with a free coinage
party one day and fusion with gold
standard party next day, is not en-
titled to the unbounded confidence of
either party.
IL SHOWS IndC SELFISH lHltTtSlS anu
partisan prejudice control the agita-
ton. The silver man" who trains
with the Mckinley crowd, who wears
the uniform of Republican, who drops
from his party name everything that
distinguishes him from a follower of
Hanna, who goes into this campaign
to aid the Republican organization, is
either working for Office or for spite.
The newspaper that processes loyalty
to silver while it commends the party
calls and declarations of administra-
ton appointees, supporters of Mckinley
and the St Louis platform, is hypo-
critic, pretender, or a spy in the camp
of the Republican party.
Silver is nothing to such an organ
compared with the spoils of Office or
the satisfaction of being able to vilify
a political opponent.

GREAT BRITAIN's BATTLES.

Great Britain is giving us practical
demonstration of the beauties and ben
efits of colonial policy. With one
army wading through blood in the Sou
dan, another guarding Chinese inter
ests, another in India, regiments in
South Africa, Egypt, Canada, the West
Indies, and various islands of Austral-
asia, there is always a war in progress.
British guns have not ceased firing
for a century, Instructions are con-
tinually springing up, and generally
the very worst at the most inoppor-
tune time. Conquests are made neces-
sary in order to guard frontiers and
preserve former holdings. Clashes with
other powers are unavoidable and fire.
quent. Danger is lowering above the
government the year around. Power
alone prevents reverses.
Right on top of the news from On
durham comes a report from Crete. A
Musselman mob in the streets OF Can
dia has added a hundred British SOL
diers to the three hundred killed the
other day on the banks of the White
Nile. The next report may be from In
dia, where eternal vigilance and a
large force have been necessary for
years, and where battles are of COM
mon occurrence.
Great Britain is better prepared to
rule over distant colonies than is this
or any other republic. 1t is not so in
consistent with England's professions
to refuse representation to her subjects.
For the United States to do thing
like that would be to mock the Declar-
alton of Independence and acknowledge
the injustice of those demands upon
which the revolutionary war was based.

where a special effort is being made
to conciliate Republicans and obtain
their support in defeating the Quay
machine; and it was for this purpose
that the platform was restricted to
state issues; but the silver sentiment

that his companion was a most delightful
talker fully informed upon wide vari-
ETY. of topics, witty, even brilliant The
governor actually was told something
that he had no. known before. During
the conversation he had occasion again
to bring Up the name of David Ward
Il know him WELL" said the old gentle
man. Il have been acquainted with him
for many years, and have had several
business dealings with him, and can say
truthfully that 1 have found him all you
say, and even worse"
Finally the tram pulled into Lansing
and all arose to leave.
The governor held out his hand to the
old gentleman. My dear sir. he said.
Il have enjoyed this hour of talk with
YOU You are solid and sensible. and L
have learned great deal from you You
are a man after my own heart. hope
that at some future time we shall meet
and renew the acquaintance. Do you live
in Detroit?"
Yes was the reply
And may / ask your manner?
The old man leaned over, his face as
sumed a serio-comic expression. and as
he looked the governor squarely in the
eye. he said, in a slow drawl, in the
qutetest of tones, his eye beaming:
My name, sir, is David Ward"
Mr.. Ward tells the foregoing story him
self with great good humor. He says it
is one of the best things he ever had hap
pen to him, and that his revenge was of
a kind that far surpaSseS rough talk or
the use of weapons.

Rismarck,s musical ideas.

General Won Moltke was a devoted mu-
/ sic lover and played on the cello himself,
| but Bismarck was lacking in the musical
| taste which is commonly attributed to
| Germans. The New York Tribune says:
Musical anecdotes about Prince Bismarck
ought to be in order, but u7haDpily the
| iron chancellor was not a musical man,
and to discuss him in relation to music
one would be compelled to pursue the
| ''lucuS non lucendo" principle. How
| ever. a story comes to mind which may
be said to illustrate his conception of his
masters attitude toward art. Niemann,
| the great dramatic tenor, told ii to the
| Tribunes commentator years ago, when
| the conversation CHANGED to turn on a
| singer whose last years were spent in
America This was Karl Formes the al
ways formidable and sometimes terrify-
ing basso. The story relates to Me
, manns first meeting with Formes. The
latter had been so long away from his
native Germany that even Niemann's
generation of artists knew him only as a
tradition when once he turned up in Ber-
lin, presented himself at the famous ten
or'S lodgings, introduced himself and al
most in the same breath asked Niemann
! to secure for him an invitation or COM
mand to sing at a court concert.
Niemann knew nothing about his voice
or manner, except what tradition re-
ported, and. relying on that, procured for
him the desired opportunity TO be heard
by the dignitaries of Berlin: You can
imagine how l felt" said Niemann. re-
lating the anecdote. when Formes stood
up and bellowed-he did not sing he
roared and beloved, always off the pitch
"a song by Schubert The perspiratlon
fairly rolled down my face as l reflected
on the possible consequences of my rash
ness in asking that he be invited to sing;
but to my amazement, when he had fin
ished. the old emperor led the applause
and demanded an encore. which Formes
gave in the same awful style. OF course
l was relieved, but / could not under
stand 1t. Later in the evening l saw
Madame Lucca sitting cozily on a sofa

and timidly put the question why Formes
had made so great hit. Bismarck an
