One OF the sweet singers Of Dundee, the
classic heights OF Omaha dedicated to the
muse, honors The Rec with a poetic out
burst Of indignation against the tyrannical
orders OF Governor Leary Of the forlorn isle
OF Guam. The provocation for this sonor-
Gus onslaught is to be found in certain or
ders Of the governor requiring the natives
TO forsake life Of idleness and ease; to get
"a move on to hustle, to tickle the fruit
ful soil with spade or plow and raise Fodder
for themselves and incidentally for pigs,
chickens, etc. The poets of Dundee are
peculiarly fitted to fire the popular heart
against the ceaseless haste, the strife and
struggle of modern life. From yon lofty
perch they can look over intervening space
and behold the smoking clouds OF indu stry
that shed flakes OF ebony on Omahas hust-
ling multitude They can observe the jost-
ling throngs, pulling, hurrying in every di-
rection in search OF the festive dollar No
wonder the unseemly scramble, the sorlid
zeal for Uncle Sans l. o. u, arouses indig
nation in souls far removed from ignoble
strife. No wonder they protest against the
threatened desecration OF Guams sac,ed
soil with Americas high-pressure system
Of life
The poet contends in vigorous phrases
tudI WoTk is an enemy OF IDEAL existence,
and while apprecieting the misfortune of
those obliged to work, insists that II the
chains of toll are to be forged on the limbs
of defenseless people they should be per-
mitted to chose more aesthetic occupations
than Governor Leary nominates.
Space forbids the publication Of the entire
poem. Besides, its publication might pro-
woke more inspired lines in that locality.
An eminent Doet once remarked that TN
spration is a genteel name for hard work
AS the Dundee poet rebels against work. to
encourage him would destroy the force o;
his metrical remarks. We append the clos
ing lines of his bugle blast, to show the lofty
pitch OF his muse:
Oh, Leary, Leary,
You make me weary.

New York Tribun,

1t is well that the dead OF the Maine are
to be brought home for sepulture in their
native soil. AS O'Hara wrote of those slain
in another war; they

Where stranger steps and tongues re

Along the needless air.
Not even though those stranger tongues
would give them all honor as the first
American martyrs for Cuba's sake. The

Coming back to the plane of the common
people from the eyrle of Pegasus, it is in
order TO drop few words of friendly advice
to the governor of Guam: Beware of the
ambition to become hero. These are trou
blesome times for heroes. We loved them
for the dangers they have passed Distance
lent enchantment to their deeds; we placed
them on lofty pedestals, sang their praises
in countless songs, loaded them with houses
loving-c cups, swords medals, etc, and
smothered them with shouts and adulation.
But when they came and settled down to
stay awhile, and the tumult and the shout
ing passed away they could not live up to
the public ideal. They were themselves
just ordinary men. Babbling tongues,
prompted by envy and malice, were set in
motion and soon the country was scandal
lied and sickened by shallow controversies,
shocking charges, cruel innuendoes and cal
low criticism. No hero of the war has es-
capped. If any warrior still at the front has
an itching for halo, desire to pluck glory
from the cannon's mouth some kind friend
should whisper in his ear the solemn eau
ton: Don't!

Apropos OF the latest discreditable evil

in it's dealing with that damphool thing, the
American public, that l would like to have
it given circulation as wide as The Bees
Here it is
THE people who inaugurated the scheme
OF presenting Admiral Dewey a house were
misguided; the admiral, in agreeing to ac
cept it, was misguided; when he made that
hasty transfer he was misguided. and when
the people jumped onto him roughshod
over the matter, they were misguided. 1t
was a piece of fool business from start to
finish and very small business at that. AS
a rule nercurial people who are ready to
make an idol of hero and to shower at
him contributions he doesn't need, are the
very first to turn and rend him when he
shows by some small, thoughtless action
that he is human after all. To thinking.
sensible people Dewey was no god when he
was on his triumphant return from Manila,
and he is no devil now that he has gotten
mixed up with the people who think 10
cent subscription to fool fund entities them
to forever after keep a string on the dime"

Last Nights Entertainment.

Last night at the Presbyterian
church occurred the first of ser
les of home talent entertainments,
which. if as meritorious us was the
initial one, will become most pop
ular. The audience was small but
showed undoubted appreciation.
Mr.. Eldredgc proved himself fully
up to his established reputation as
an impersonator. As Shylock he
acquitted himself with credit, but
his forte is in something of a
lighter vein. His impersonation
of Samantha Allen in her doscrip-
ton of the Fourth of July cele-
bration at Jonesville was uusur-
passed, while especially TO those
who have had experience in the
rural districts in teaching "the
young idea how to shoot" did his
rendition of "Speasiny Day" ap-
peal in most favorable sense.

tainer and is a whole show in

with increasing interest and at

night Mr.. Shawhan struck some
hard blows straight out from the
shoulder against church members
who are serving the world more
faithfully than they are their Lord.
Helpful and inspiring lessons from
the story of Nehemiah s rebuilding
the walls of Jerusalem were tre-
mendously emphasized. Everybody
is pleased with Mr.. Shawhan's S
preaching. Mrs. Shawhan has ar
rived and will sing in a duet with

that department Of the state government
