WAITING.

What matter II stand alone?
wait with Joy the coming years;
My heart shall rest where 1t has sown,
And garner up its fruit of tears.
The waters know their own and, draw
The brook that springs in yonder height;
So flow the good with equal law
Unto the soul of pure delight.
The stars come nightly to the sky,
The tidal wave unto the sea;
Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high,
Can keep my own away from me.
John Burroughs.

Serene I told my hands and wait

Serene told my hands and wait,
Nor care for wind, or tide, or sea,
/ rave no more 'gainst time or fate,
For 10! my own shall come to me.
I stay my haste, make delays,
For what avails this eager pace?
l stand amid the eternal ways,
And what is mine shall know my face.
Asleep. awake, by night or day,
The friends / seek are seeking me.
No wind ca drive my bark astray,
Nor chann the tide OF destiny.

A Beautiful Gem,

Turquoise is one of the prettiest
gems worn. The exquisite shade of
blue whitens the wearer's hand by
contrast, and its presence is distin-
guished at a greater distance than al
most any other stone.

That Black Bottle.

The proposition to vote $40, 600 to
help build the Black Bottle railroad
ought to be discussed and considered
as a business proposition, pure and
simple.
That is what it is.
That is what the County Court
has submitted to the voters-a bust
ness proposition.
If it is a good business PROPOSE
ton and promises to benefit the Dis
trict it ought to be endorsed.
Fit is bad business PROPOSE
ton and promises to cost more than
it is worth to the District, it ought
to be voted down.
That is business.
If the proposition is a mere per-
sonal matter, dependent on prejudice
and favoritism-as some debaters
would have us believe-it ought not
to have been submitted by the Coun
ty Court.
If it is a question Of making a gift
of the public money to few indi-
viduals for their personal benefit, it
ought not to have been submitted by
the County Court.
The County Court had no iuris-
diction to submit to such PROPOSE
ton
But if those who are wanting to
view the proposition from such a
standpoint will read the proposition
as submitted by the County Court,
they will be able to discover, we
think, that the County Court has
simply asked or directed the voters
to determine whether or not they
will accept q pdrely business propo-
sition-that is, whether what they
are offered in the shape Of public
benefit is worth the money they are
asked to give for it.
In other words the voters of Nor
gan District are asked to ex-
change $4,000 Of its bonds for an
equal amount of preferred 5 Ter cent
dividend bearing stock Of the Nor
gantown and kingwood Rail Road
Co, and to be absolutely assured of
the completion Of the Railroad be
fore the exchange is consummated.
Surely this is business PROPOSE
ton, and as such should be consid-
cred
The sole question is, will itpay?
Is it a good trade?
The New DOMINION thinks it is.
The Judgment of the best business
men in this District is on that side.
The completion Of the Black Bot
tie Rail Road has always been re
garded as one of the events which
would complete the material deyel-
opment OF this town
1t is the very best thing in sight
for us.
We can have it, it is said for an

Bad management keeps more people
in poor circumstances than any other
one cause. To be successful one must
look ahead and plan ahead so that
when a favorable opportunity presents
itself he is ready to take advantage of
it. A little forethought will also save
much expense and valuable time. A
prudent and careful man will keep a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house,
the shiftless fellow will wait until ne
cessity compels it and then ruin his
best horse going for doctor and have
big doctor bill to pay, besides; one
pays out 25 cents, the other is out a
hundred dollars and then wonders why
his neighbor is getting poorer. For
sale by Geo. c. Jacobs, druggist.

The Potosi journal is exercised be-
cause the REGISTER gave in evidence
only two particular instances of the
discharge of .'drummers" by reason of
trust formations. Now comes one Mr..
ID. P. DOVE, who. in his testimony be-
fore the Industrial Commission, says
..the great tobacco combines have
thrown 5000 statesmen out of employ
meut; the Baking Powder Trust has
discharged all but half a dozen men.
Two instances cited are those of a sales
man who had received salary of $4,000
a year and another $4,000. The trade
worked up by these men is served by
an agent paid 50 week. The Bicycle
Trust will throw out 600 statesmen and
cut down agencies in every city. Hun
dreds lose their jobs through the COM
bination of the Rubber, Tin Plate,
Steel Rod and Paper Bag interests.
Altogether thousands of travelling sales
men have felt the edge of the AK and
many more are looking for the same
fate on July |. when contracts usually
expire" This is the very essence of
Mckinley Prosperity. 1t is exquisite
in its directness. and hits on the solar
plexus many a loud-mouthed defender
of .'the national honor" He need no
longer fear ''a debased currency" for
the future will hold in store for him
few, if any, fifty-cent dollars-and even
they will be like unto cart-wheels in
his impoverished vision. Pray for him
that Mother Experience may pile-drive
a little common sense into his skull.

THE Post-DiSpatch sets forth the
righteousness Of the income tax tersely
and iudisputably: IAN income tax is
not tax on property which brings no
returns and which is often burden to
the owner. One must have an income
before it can be taxed. 1t gives him
something with which he can pay a
tax. The justice of income taxation
recommends it to fair-minded people
everywhere, and it is no wonder that
there should be frequent revival of
the income-tax agitation"
