From the Chautauquau.
An, yes, old friend, I'd gladly spend
A peaceful time together,
To idly walk and read and talk
And love the world and weather.
But faith! my dear, see who comes here
To mock al all we utter:
take this blow, / humbly GO
What he commands. that must be So
For he is Bread-and-Butter.
haste along TO join the throng
Who slave at book and barrow
Your pardon, pray, you're in my way;
This walk is rather narrow.
What You resist? BY foot and fist,
Good sir, go seek the gutter!"
IT'S rude / know. but men as so,
Ard give each other blow for blow.
Impelled by Bread-and- Butter
How glad the hue of softest blue
Which fills the sky above u.s.
How fair the scene of restful green;
An, sure the gods must love US.
The bright springtime, the summers
prime,
The fan with leaves a-hutter.
The winters birth-yes, all the earth
Is beautiful but beautys worth
Is naught to Bread-aud-B Butter
Alas! sweet art, Ahat we must part
But so DEGREES the tyrant.
Ambition rest, nor beat your breast,
For you're a vain aspirant.
Love, go your way. Quick, quick, obey
IT'S reason that you mutter.
why what are you that Gains due
Against the power all grovel to-
The Tyrant Bread-and-B Butter?

A GOLD STANDARD DECLARATION.

The campaign in Nebraska is being
watched in ali parts Of the country with
absorbing interest. The Democrats stana
on platform containing a declaration ia
favor Of The free and unlimited coinage Of
silver al the ratio OF 16 to /. The platform
Of the Republicans is just as emphatic in
favor OF The gold standard. The issue be
tween the two parties is so clear that the
voters will have no d,fficulty ia under
standing it,
Mr. Bryan is making some OF the best
speeches Of his life in Nebraska lie under
stands that the cause OF silver would be
given a serious setback by the defeat Of
the Democrats in thai state, and the Re-
pubiicans realize that il their vote shows
a falling off it will be attributed TO the
declaration in favor Of gold.
II the people Of Nebraska decide in ia
vor Of the gold standard a bin will be in
troduced into Congress next winter de-
claring that the gold dollar is the dollar
with which this country intends to pay its
creditors. The bill has been prepared. II
Is the bin of the committee that was APP
pointed at a caucus of Republicans of the
House in the last Congress to look after
financial legislation for the Republican
rarty. The national Republican party has
about decided 10 come out squarely for
the gold standard. and it viii adhere 10
that decision unless the result OF the eco
lions this fell leads them 10 believe that it
would not be advisable 10 do so.
II is a question of course as to whether
such bill would be passed by Congress.
but the probability is that ii would. The
Republican party is pledged to give The
country a safe and stable currency, and
that pledge is construed TO mean that II
shall enact a law that win leave no room
for doubt that the monetary standard is
gold.
If times should remain good the Repub-
lican party would perhaps lose nothing
by anything it might DO in behalf of the
gold standard, but If within the next few
months there should come a period of de-
preston it is probable that it would have
reason for regretting that 1t didn't leave
the money question aSone.

The Philadelphia Press says that "the
regulations which practically exclude from
Santiago, cuba, negro immigrants from
Jamaica are fully justified" for the rea-
son that there is no need for negro labor
in that part of Cuba" aud for the further
reason that the Jamaica colored men are,
as a rule ignorant and unfit for any pur-
pose excepting unskilled manual labor"
Possibly some of the Northern papers are
able to justify the negro exclusion from

similar grounds. that they are not needed.

An examination of school fund Stats
ties shows that Cincinnati devotes about 80
per cent. of her income to schools. Balti-
more about 20 per cent, Indianapolis about
SO per cent, and Atlanta about per cent
The city of Savannah does not make a
school appropriation, but the figures show
that Chatham county (Which in this case
is practically the same as the city Of Sa-
yannah) devotes nearly 40 per cent of her
income to public schools This is a show
ing Of which any community might well be
proud, and which is probably not surpas-
sed anywhere in the United States.

up in Illinois it is all right to prevent
darkeys coming in competition with white
laborers and The shotgun policy is resorted
to. The Northern press does not rise in
indignation Down South" if an affair
similar to the one recently occurring at
Carterville. H.. had taken place. the press
north of the Ohio would have been filled
with excavations of Southern civilza-
ton"
The Philadelphia Ledger Gnd) says:
"The Governors convention in St. Louis
agreed with the antitrust convention III
Chicago that it would take the united
strength Of the nation and the several
states to deal effectively with the trust
evil. There is no reason to believe that
these estimates of the strength of the vast
aggregations of capital are excessive"
The Macon News (Dem) says: ut IS
reported that cotton mills are intending
to shut down on account of the high price

farmer hears this and recalls the NELL es-

he wonders If his intellect is leaving him.

out to get the patronage of a certain

The oil we have been getting has
not been unsatisfactory" said he, ''and

change. Are there any extra induce

pose to improve on the old quality?"
''In this way" vas the prompt an

Maybe you say to yourself: my liver
must be out of order" Maybe is, and when
you reach your place OF business you snap
and snar1 at everything and everybody.
Nothing pleases you. Everything seems to
go wrong. You are regular 1shmaelite-
your hand is against everybody and every
body's hand seems raised against you.
This is repeated for several days, or may
be weeks, and then you begin to complain
that you can't sleep nights; but often you
feel heavy and drowsy during the day. You
get up I'm the morning just as tired as when
you went to bed. When you do fall asleep,
your slumber is broken by frightful dreams
or by horrible Nightmares.
Some days later you notice that your
hand is shaky when you want to hold 1t
still. You have q dull, heavy pain in the
head near the base of the skull. Your appe-
tite for any meal has grown just as variable
as If it had been for breakfast. Your stom-
ach bloats up, and you belch after eating
anything. You realize that you are growing
weak and know that you ought to eat more,
but for the life OF you you can't think OF
anything that will satisfy your appetite or
please your stomach.

furious instructions. They are rhe-
torical fourishes. meaningless to the
gentleman on the scaffold and in Sing

tom of happiness with the Jimmy of
the burglar and the dagger of the as
sassin. Men are not created equal
physically, morally or intellectually.
nor in aptitude. opportunity nor condi-
tion. 1t is perhaps accurate to say of
the 1.500,000,00 600 Inhabitants of the
earth no two are created equal. Nature
is incapable Of uniformity and detests
equality as much as she abhors a
vacuum. One is made to honor, an
other to dishonor, as one star differeth
from another star in glory.-John j. In
