DEMOCRATS D1sGUsTED
The Governors Course Almost Uni
versally Condemned in Shelby

Columbiana April 17.-(Special.) 1.-The gov
ernor's last move has created no little in
terest here, and to say that the democrats
ars both surprised and shocked is putting
1t mildly. Not a democrat can be found
who is not thoroughly disgusted with the
governors course. There is absolutely no
division here on the question of the con-
vertion. A considerable sentiment existed
in the county in favor of the CASTOR propo-
sition, principally from the fact that it
would have had a good local effect, but
since the state convention there is not a
spark of dissatisfaction. Prominent demo-
Gratis call Johnstons course political
treachery.
1t is very significant that the plan of
calling the legislature together for repeal
was limited at by several prominent popu-
lists more than a week before the governor
sprung the question, and one of the popu-
list leaders has openly announced that he
is with Johnston because the latter's course
will tend to disrupt the democratic party
This ought to afford the governor a great
deal of satisfaction.
The democrats have not nominated a
county candidate for delegate yet, but will
do so at early day. The combined vote
of the populists and negroes may carry the
county, but the full democratic vote will
be cast for the convention.

The ForgetfuI Man

From the Detroit Free Press.
Mr. Loosen nd sat before his desk earn

hand. - H'f
Around that finger just below the knuckle
was tied tightly a piece of string.
Now, what the devil was it?" lie
muttered, that she didn't want me TO
forget?''
Long and earnestly he thought. Finally
he arose and sad to himself: well for the
life of me, l can't remember. l know 1t
was something. Well, all that remains for
me to do is to confess that even the bit
of string she tied around my finger was
lost to me in its significance"
Mr.. Loosemind went home empty hand
ed.
Dearest" he said to the wife of Ills
bosom, Il must confess that 1t was all of
no avail. Now, tell me what you tied
that string around my finger tbs morning
to remind me Of"
why, nothing, dear" was the reply.
"Only to remind you that you stuck your
finger with a rusty pin this morning. put
1t around, you know, to keep the blood
from flowing back.

THE HARP's SONG.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
All day, all day, in calm like death
The harp hung waiting the sea winds
breath ans
When the western sky flushed red with
shame
At the suns bold kiss, the sea wind came.
Said the harp to the breeze, oh, breathe
as soft ,.l
AS the ring dove COOS from it's nest aloft.
1 am full of song that mothers Groom
When their wee ones tire OF their play at
noon.
Though a harp may feel it's a silent thing
Till the breeze arises and bids it sing.
Said the wind to the harp, Nay, sing for
The wall of the dead that are lost at sea.
1 caught their cry as I came along
And 1 hurried to find you and teach you
the song.
Oh, the harp is the harp, and love is the
breeze,
And the song is ever what love may please.
