AZ the Turn Of the Road.


Where the rough read turns, and the valley
sweet
Smiles bright With its balm and bloom,
Wen forget the thorns that have pierced the
feet,
Ana the nights with their grief and gloom,
And the -ky will smile, aud the stars will
beam,
And wen lay us down in the light to dream.
We shall lay us down in the hloom and light
With prayer aud a tear for rest,
As tired children who creep At night
To the love of mothers breast
Aud for all the grief Of the stormy past
Rest shall be sweeler at last--st last.
Sseeter because of tie weary way
And the Lonesome night aud long
While tue darkness drifts 10 the perfect day,
With lis sPlendOr of light aud seng
Tne light that shall bless US aud kiss us and
love us
Aul sprinkle the roses OF heaven above us.

A woman has written novel to prove
that clingiug to life is folly. It's dol
lars to doughnuts she wrote the book for
the express purpose Of clinging to life
herself. Modern writers consider The
two sides Of question to find which is
the best material for effect, and choose
accordingly. Wine bibhers write works
ou temperance, irrelisious persons glow
with devout fervor; and, il they do it
well, what's the difference? The folly
Of living, however, is a subject good
deal like the charms Of unhappiness. -

The proposition to have our mail line
changed from Meade to Liberal appears
to be viewed in IA very favorable light
by some of our citizens. Among the
advantages Of the proposed route, as
pointed out by the prime movers, are,
that We would have but one stream (the
Beaver TO cross, the distance would be
less and the roads better. The one dis
advantage would be lack Of water on the
route, aud this could be easily rrm.dicd
by placing a we'll aud windmill on the
fats midway between the towns. If the
change is made IL is very likely that
Beaver and Liberal will be connected by
telephone.

A "ructiou" occurred at Craig's "a.
loon last Friday night in which one man
was seriously hurt. A quarrel sprung
up between Dave Overton and Wash
Hustled, and during the melee which
followed Wash struck Dave over the
bead with an iron poker, knocking him
sanscless and cutting considerable of a
ga-h in his forehead. Next day Wash
was summoned before Probate Judge
Tannehil and placed under $500 bonds
for his appearance for trial. Both these
men are good friends of the writer, and
we are sorry to see either Of them ge
into difficulty.

The subject OF railroad building 10
Oklahoma territory is just now becoming
Of more than absor rbing interest, and if
the Leader is not mistaken in its dsg>
nosis of the subject, the coming year
will witness some leading and many con.
Meeting lines built or put under con-
struction. The Arkansas, Guthrie Il
California projected line, the survey of
which is now being pushed between
Guthrie and Shawnee, may be set down
as a certainty, and when it wends its
way westward through Kingfsher, Gar
field, Woods, Woodward and Beaver
counties, tapping the great Colorado
trunk lines, every part Of our magnih-
cent territory will be brought into close
aud direct communication with the out
side world, These things are golug to
happen, aud that, too, much earlier than
most Oklahomans now think Guthrie
Leader.
