LUCKY MAN WITH THE HOE.

@u 'foFtSlnnutn s>tar.) ".. ..@.
Inc plthOs OF the poem of The Man
With the Hoe by Edwin Mark ham. &c
San Francisco, is simulated not real
The man With the hoe is not the Oh
ject Of real, genuine heartfelt grief,
but o" a sentimental, and wholly in,agi-
nary grief. that is equally unnecessary
1nd untrue. The man DOESN'T need the
sympathy of the sentimentalist Who Of
fers nothing but sentimental sympathy.
The man who offers only that would
rot give anything more tangible if The
Nan with the H2e." should need bread
" work. money or medicine. The men
VINO Write the poems are no more rrac-
tlcal IN getting their facts or allage i
l2cts Tor rhyming pathoS than they are
IN offering tangible relief for real SUI :
ferlnS. The Man With the Hoe" has
the hoe. While he has that ana the
ability and the Will to use it he is fully
equipped to struggle for existence lie
has got all that anybody needs WIZ, is
Wiling to make his own way by his u,yl
cXerticns in the world The man Who
mas anything more must get it i:o,l
some one else. He can't have it, h..
can't nave the hoe indeed, excent by
MS own Wit and work. The fact that he
mas the hoe shows that he has ability
70 get more. He is not the object
therefore. Of real. but OF sentimental |
sympathy. 1t Is a triumph Of civi!izl-
ton that he has a hoe. He formerly
had a club merely. and dressed in the
SKINS OF q beast that he killed VITA
the club. The Man With the Hoe" IS
lucky to have the hoe.

70 this gentleman in the high estimation
IN which he is held by everyone, our
friend remarked, Yes. but have you
never heard Of that little affair that oc-
Cured few years ago. and he nrC-
seeded TO relate how this gentleman
rad acted in regard to {; matter Which
involved Il question Of honesty ana fair
dealing
This little incident. While Of no par
