Since Ben come back from war it's
strange
To notice the surprisin' change
In him: his good OIL ma an me
Are both astonished as kin be!
He used to be a slouchy lad
Partakin' mebbe. from his dad
And hadn't the git up an snap
You'd look fur in a rancher chap.
The first day he slapped a nervy fist
An said he reckoned he'd enlist

scurcely knowed just what to say.
J tor him with a scornful grin
He wasn't built fur soldierin'-
That what they wanted in the ranks
Was men with action in their shanks.
But spite of all he went an now
That he is back again l swow

Than me an her who give him birth.

stride,
Swelled up with military pride,
An slingin' style It'd make you think
He was Gineral, by jink!
When walkin' long with me he'll say:
Now dad. don't slouch in sich a wayi
HoP up yer head! throw out yer chest
Ontil you think tn bust yer vest!
Toe out, an try to git the step!
Now! hayfoot. strawfoot! hep! hep!

Gee!
The way that kid keeps drillin' me!
He's got scar where he was hit
AT Caloocan, an says that it
Is Uncle Sammy's brand to show
That he knowed how to face a foe.
An then the gals! Why, they Jest seem
To think he is a four -hoss team!
Same gals that used to say that he
Want in it at a sparkin' bee!

A maxim scholars out o. fools,
Of di'mon's in the rough that's made
To shine like gems O. finest grade,

A Needless War.

We would probably have obtained
control of the Philippine Islands, so
far as our commercial, political and
diplomatic interests necessitated. with
the full and amiable concurrence of
the Filipinos, if our government had
pursued the right policy and had sent
the right men to Manila to carry it out
The war which is now going on,
which, whenever it ends, will leave it's
long legacy of distrust and hatred,
wasa needless war, and it might easily
have been avoided if the administra-
tion had taken a proper course in our
relations with the Filipinos.-Boston
Herald
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1900-02-22


The Democrats have good cause to
rejoice, 1t is now fairly evident that
they have defeated the three great ad-
ministration measures-thc Porto Rican
tariff, the Hanna ship subsidy and the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty. The first
named will probably be beaten despite
the fact that the president has aban-
doned his declared position in favor of
free trade with Porto Rico on the
ground that he is obliged to do so in
order to secure the passage of any
Porto Rican bill by the house and
senate. He expresses his solictude for
the people of that island and says that
half loaf is better for them than no
bread. He thus processes to believe
that Il bill granting free trade would
be defeated although all the Democrats
and at least half the Republicans will
vote for it, while one charging a duty
would be adopted, although all the
Democrats and at least thirty Repubi-

tobacco trusts.
The currency bill has passed the
senate by a vote of 46 to 20, the other
members of the senate being paired
on opposing sides. The Democrats Of
fered number of amendments, all of
which were defeated by about the same
vote. The most serious struggle Of
the day was on the adoption of the
miserable evasion offered by the finance
committee declaring that nothing in
the bill should be constructed to pre-,
vent the adoption of bimetallsm by
international consent. This clause was
inserted in order to permit Senator
Wolcott to vote for the bill without
going back on all his expressed CON
yictions. The bill now goes to con-
ference committee of the senate and
house, where it is believed that the
differences between the two bills will
speedily be harmonized by the cohesive
force of public plunder.
/
caucus OF Democratic senators was
held to discuss the general line of op-
position TO the Republican policy to-
wards the island possessions of the
United States. A committee was
authorized to confer with the Demo-
Gratis of the house, with view to
having the party in both branches of
congress act along the same line.
while no program was adopted, there
was unanimous sentiment in favor of
continuing the opposition, and a com
mittee was authorized to arrange a
program.
t
Notwithstanding numerous denials of
the story that Boss Hanna had threat
ened to take the Republican national
convention away from Philadelphia, If
the money promised by the committee
representing that city to the Republican
national committee was not forthcom.
ing, such threat was made. And as a
result Boss Hanna has received a check
ior $4,000 on account. and Il promise
that the other S75, 900 will be raised and
turned over before the convention meets.
/
The Dill providing a territorial form
of government for Hawaii now before
the senate, which means that Hawaii
Will ultimately become state, natural,
raises the question of why the Hawaii
ans should be much better treated thar
the Porto Ricans? Surely no one out
side OF the clique which is shaping the
Republican policy can see any good
reason for making Hawaians American
citizens and the Porto Rcans coonia
subjects.

But Is That All?

a little dreaming by the way,
A little toiling day by day,
A little pain, little strife.
A little joy-and that is life.
A short-lived fieeting summers morn
When happiness seems newly born,
When one days sky is blue above,
And one bird sings-and that is love.
A little wearying of the years,
The tribute of a few hot tears,
Two folded hands, the fainting breath
And peace at last-and that is death.
Just dreaming, loving, dying, so
The actors in the drama 60;
A fitting picture on a wall,
Love, death, the themes But is 1t all?

At Night.

At night
The whirl of life grows still:
The throbbing OF the noisy mill.
The pulsing brain and hands that till,
At night grow still.
At night
The stars come out and keep
Their watch through all the hours Of
sleep,
Ger dreaming land and solemn deep,
And those who weep.
At night
We rise above the care
And pettiness thai all must bear,
And breathe the calm and purer air
That angels share.

LADIES BIRTHDAY ALMANAC
PRINTED PROGNOSTICATION
<OF GREAT GULF CYCLONE
MONTHS AGO

Chattanooga, Sept. 26.-The Calves
ton cyclone. which startled the world
with horror September 9Th, was pre-
alcted nearly eighteen months ago by
l'rof. Andrew Jackson DeVoe. the me-
teoroiogist who prepares the weather
forecasts used by the Chattanooga
Medicine Company in its Ladies' Birth
day Almanacs and Cardui Weather
Chart and Calendar. Over 10. coo. 600 OF
these almanacs and 200. 900 of the cal
endars are issued each year. and every
copy printed for 1900 showed this pre-
diction. Prof. DeVoe has been making
these weather forecasts for years and
has made some truly wonderful prog
nosticntionS in the past. He foretold
the coming of the ST. Louis cyclone
-FOUR years ago withithe same accuracy
as the recent cyclone at Galveston,
when he gave the location and day. In
his forecasts for the month of Septem-
Der. 1900, DeVoe says:
On the 9th great cyclone will form
over the Gulf of Mexico and move up
the Atlantic coast. At this season
cyclones are likely to form over the At
lantic ocean and travel westward
causing heavy rains III the Gulf

NEARING COMPLETION.

Durham. N. c., Sept. 26.-The new
Edgemont Cotton Factory Is now near
ing completion. and in the near future
the work of putting in the machinery
Will begin. The walls of the mammoth
building have been completed and the
rooflis now being put on. When COM
pleted this mill will be one OF the
largest in this section of the State and
will employ somewhere In the neigh
borhood of 1000 operatives 1t Is
thought now that the mill will be
ready to begin operations some time
about the first OF the year.
Work on the new Durham Hosiery
MIN building is also progressing very
iapidly. This building will be four
stories. and in connection with it will
be n yarn MILL the first to be erected
in Durham. Adjoining this business
will be the new electric light plant, and
1t. is the intention of these people to
move into the new quarters about the
first of the year.
When all of this business opens up it
VIII mean that II new town of several
thousand people will spring into exis-
renee in short time. This town will
nc located between Durham and East
Durham and will fill in the vacant
space between these two settlements.

PICKING AND MARKETING COT
TON-THE FAIR.

New Bern. n. c., Sept. 26.-Reports
or cotton picking say that the farmers

III the season is n little late there is n
promise of some splendid yields OF late
planted cotton below this city.
