Ring out a slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
Ring out old shapes of foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold,
Ring out the thousand wars of old;
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
1t is but natural we should find that the
faction that favors Imperialism should
also be known as the friends of an en-
tangling alliance between this country
and England. This faction comes almost
exclusively, as we might expect, from
the ranks of the men who desire to impose
upon our country for all time the notori-
ously dishonest and destructive single
gold standard on the ridiculously absurd
pretense that we are too weak and too
poor ourselves to establish or maintain a
more honest standard.
1t is but another development of the
same constitutional vice. II is but an
other soleum declaration on their part of
their want of faith in the ability of the
American people to regulate their own
affairs and take care of their own in
terests without the aid or consent of any
other nation.
Many of them have discarded the proud
name Of America, and prefer to be known

Some Mexican stupidity.

In the observations of a Ranchwo-
man are plentiful instances illustrat-
ing both the "shif lessness'' and stu
pidity of Mexican servants, Here is
sample Of the latter quality:
Complying with law and custom, l
provided four men to do each a days
work toward cleaning public ditch
for irrigation purposes. At the end Of
the day a youth presented himself and
the bill. The names of but two men
were inscribed as having worked, but
the SUN demanded amounted to the
wages Of four
what is the meaning of this ?" l
inquired "If only Luciano and Pedro
worked, why do 1 pay the wages of
Matilda and Jesus?"
1.-TWO men worked" was the stolid
rejoinder.
Then won't pay the wages of
four
But two men did four days
work.

Presently the majordomo appeared.

rect The men have worked.
"Senor, l repeat, the thing is impos-
sibe Two men cannot in one day do
the work of four men.
"Senora, four men worked. "
"Why, then. did this man tell me
that only two worked And why are
not the names of Matilda and Jesus on
the billT'
'He told you that only two worked,
because there was no room on the bill
| for the names of the others "
The majordOmo spoke quite impa-
tiently. as if l should have OWNED that
process of reasoning by instinct. in
| duced him to squeeze in the names OF
Matilda and Jesus, which he did with
out smile. and we parted on the best
of terms.

The Great Unknown.

1t was many years before the "Great
Unknown" was identified. At the pub
LEGATION of the Lay of the Last Min
strel, "Marmion, Lady Of the
Lake" and finally of a novel called
''Waverley, popular curiosity was ex-
cited. and the whole of England rang
with the fame of the "Great I'm
known. as Scott was called.
The secret was well kept Sir Walter
Scott, who all his life had been storing
material and training his mind to such
concentration that he could work in the
midst of Interruptions and was able to
turn out volume after volume with a
rapidly, two a year, that made bis
readers doubt their very senses. His in
cognito was all the more perfectly pre-
served in that he kept open house at
Abbotsford, devoting much Of his time
to entertaining his guests and visiting.
1t was not until the embarrassment OF
his publishers occurred that the identity
of the author of the "Waverley Novels
was discovered.
The case of Scott furnishes one OF the
many illustrations Of the power OF de-
ceiving the public in literary matters
