MY BEADS.

Sweet. blessed beads. I would not part
With one of you for richest gem
That CLEANS in kindly diadem:
Ye know the history of my heart
For 1 have told YOU every grief
In all the days Of twenty years.
And L have mOiStened you with tears,
And in your decades found relief.
Oh, time has fed. and friends have failed
And joys have died: but in nv needs
He were my friends. my blessed beads.
And ye consOled me when l walled
For many and many a time. in grief.
My weary fingers wandered round
Thy circled chain and always found
In some Hail Mary, sweet relief.
How many a story You might tell
OF inner life, to all unknown:
1 trusted you and you alone.
But ahi ye keep my secrets well.
Ye are the only chain I wear
A sign that l am but a slave
In life. in death. beyond the grave,
OF Jesus and his mother fair.

The Position Of Mr.. Watterson.

Henry Watterson makes a spirited
defence of historic Democracy. which
he sadly recognizes is now a thing of
the past under the new regime that has
usurped control of the organization by
that name. The distinguished Ken
lucky editor does not hesitate to pay
his respects, with characteristic vigor.
to Governor Altgeld whom he charac-
Don -give-er- dam 1t is evident
that Mr.. Watterson, like thousands OF
other old-time Democrats of his high
character and broad calibre, recognizes
the fact that he can never come ih'o
sympathetic touch with the new oruer
of things Mr.. Watterson is first OF all
a robust American. He believes that
the welfare of his country deihahus
the maintenance of the eSlstlhs so'u
standard He is not at all oppressed
with the craven fear OF growing
great" but ardently advocates the luea
of evanston. seeing therein very
large increase of prosperity Tor the
naonIa of This country. At the same
time he makes proper distinction be-
tween the terms expansion and i'm
nerialism. for he clearly recognizes the
fact that the American flag will never
stand for imperialism at home or
abroad.
There is absolutely no place for Mr.
Watterson with his advanced and thor
oughly patriotic views in the Demo-
cratic party under the Altgeld-Til-
n-Bryan regime. If he goes where
his views properly carry him he will
be found hereafter in the Republican
party.
