WITH respect to the distress in
Puerto Rico, there is not any doubt
which should hold back the hand of
the giyer. The latest reports add to,
and more than confirm, the first news
of disaster. 1t is pleasure to note
that there has been a quick response
to the appeal for help.

silver Democrats Lukewarm.

The silver Democrats of Maryland
are likely to make things interesting
for the ticket recently nominated by
the State convention of their party.
They do not see why they should lend
their support to men who will be
actively opposed to their principles in
the presidential Campaign of next
year. Isidor Rayner, the candidate
for Attorney General, could find no
epithets in 1896 too strong to apply to
Mr.. Bryan and his followers. John
Walter Smith and Mr.. Herring, both
bankers, are also classed among the
gold men and will receive the consid-
Grafton of the silver contingent Mt the
polls. Thomas c. Weeks, of Balti-
more city, Democratic candidate for
Congress in 1896, is disgusted with the
ticket. The Democratic platform, he
declares, has not an issue in it, and
the only question raised by it, he
says, is, who shall get the office. He

And yearRiugly thinking of him,
Sees through the dust Of long ago
The bloom VI the boys sweet face.
As he rocks so mcrrily TO and fro.
with laugh that cheers the place.
Sometimes he holds book IN his hnnd. .
Sometimes a pencil and slate;
And the lesson is hard 10 understand.
The figures 10 calculate;
But she sees the nod Of the fathers

So proud OF his little son.
AAd she hears the words so often said,
No fear for our little one"
They we're wonderful days, the dear
sweet days,
When q child with sunny hair
Was here 10 scold, TO kiss and to praise.
At her knee in the little chair.
She lost him back in her busy years,
When the great world caught the man
And he strsde away past hopes and
fears
To lis place in the battles van.
But now aud then in wastful dream.
Like a picture out Of date.
She sees a head with a golden CLEAN
Bent oyer pencil aud slate;
Add she lives again the happy day,
The day Of her young LIES spring.
