The congressional records are full of
resolutions of sympathy for struggling
nations. We had presidents and states

don money power in those days. We
had men in high positions who were not

Americans were concerned in the
struggles of others as they had sought
to interest others in them own strug-
giles. Americans are still interested in
the cause of liberty, even though an
administration be temporarily in power
whose sympathies are directed as its
policies are controlled by foreign infu-
ence or mercenary considerations.

Every poem written, every story told,
has its proper background-the setting
is as essential to the thought as the
scene to the dramatic action-but to
every mood and thought of Words
worth, in truth to his very life, the lake
district seems TO be essential. But
never for a moment must it be
fancied that Wordsworth used
his surroundings as Scott i'm
pressed the scenery of his neighbOr-
ing country into his service, nor as By
ron selected the choice places of the
world for his dramatic situations. If
you wish to test this statement. try to
reconstruct the landscape after a de-
scriptive passage from Wordsworth.
lie never describes for mere description.
1t would be counted strange if nature
could be caught grouping itself for pic
tllresque effect, and such is the natural
hess of WOrdsworth's workmanship
that the poet can never be said TO have
arranged things. Nature herself at
times seems to take the pen out of his
hand, as Arnold says and to deprive
him of his style. Yet the likeliness of
Wordsworth seems to be reflected in

By all means let a sum be appro-

treasury for the preservation of the
royal cemetery in Hawaii. In this
plat OF ground, explained Representa-
tive Knox of Massachusetts, in sup
port Of the measure. the old kings and
royal families of the islands lie sleep
ing unconscious that they have been
annexed to the United States. And
there Mckinley may desire to select
a lot and make his bed along with the
other rulers who were a constitution
unto themselves. As Representative
Wheeler Of Kentucky aptly put it, "a
few kings, dead or alive, is all that
is needed to complete the policy of the
present administration.

The Ogden Standard pays the fol-
lowing tribute TO a professional CO.
laborer in the Republican vineyard:
There are some great editors who are
only great by reason of chaplpioning
bitter partisan prejudices, either politi-
cal or religious, and using the mean
est words their. pens can command in
denoUncing those who cannot agree
with them. That kind of greatness is
false. but often serves to bolster up the
reputation of men who at heart are
rascals, devoid of moral worth, and
who, otherwise, would pass through life
at their real value, almost unnoticed
and wholly disrespected. Their souls
are encased in hatred, their minds are
envenomed and their hearts enslaved
to bitterness; their tongues are f6rked
and their pens deceptive. But they
gather to themselves men after their
own hearts and feed them on the pabu-
lum they crave and steep their spirit
ualitg in soul-destroying envy, covet-
BUSINESS. and selishness." All of which
goes to shown that there are brethren
who do not dwell together in unity.

THE AMATEUR GARDENER.
Omaha Bel

Omaha Bee)
He FASTENED from the office
Seized a spade and went 10 work.
Making holes in terra firma,
Ever busy as a Turk:
Till at last he'd excavated
over all the backyard lot:
Then he planted seeds in plenty.
Onions, lettuce. and what not
In expectancy he waited
Till the shoots began to shoot:
Then he spent his night and mornings
Pulling weeds out by the root
Though he labOred late and early,
In an enterprising way.
He was laps behind the nuisance
At the close of every day.
On he labored. he was patient
Long ago the weeds had killed
Every leaf of tender lettuce
And the radish bed was filed
With the rank heTbaceous nuisance,
But he still was bright and gay.
For the onion tops were coming
In most prolific way.
Till at last he was rewarded.
For one balmy summer night
He picked lust eleven onions
And they filled him with delight.
They were tough as harness leather.
But he giOried in his Delf-
Thought them choicer than the choicest
He had raised them all himself.

LABOR is ALthl

The Western Federation Of Miners in
convention assembled at Denver this
week adopted "a set of resolutions in
which militarism Imperialism and col
onialism, after the plan proposed by
Lord North. are condemned.
The acquisition of colonists other

men with alarm. Tt means coolie com

Imperialism which seeks to govern
colonies and increase the powers of the
executive outside of the constitution
is opposed as un-American and inimicaI
to the institutions Of a free republic.
Militarism, the attendant evil of
cdloniaism, means a constantly in
creasing arny-itself an expense and a
menace 10 the liberties of the citizen.
American laborers generally take this
view of the new policies. No laboring
man who knows the signs of the times

every mountain tarn and the very hills
re-echo the magic music of the streams

While in sweet cadence rising small

How different the associations of
Goethe and Schiller with Weimar and
the surrounding country! Here it is in

From Rydal mount the influence of
oWrdsworth diffuses itself over the
whole district.
Despite the local environment of
WORDSWORTH verse there is nothing to
suggest limitation to the flight of the
poets imagination. An acre of the lake
region would have sufficed to provide
the mise en- scene needfuI to the Words
WORKMAN mind and temper. The spirit

IL would often seem that Wordsworth
valued his mountains more for the Sc
clusiOn and retiT ement offered by them
than for their beauty. This utterance
may seem heresy. But a tramp through
the English lake district will reveal
beauties still unnamed Such color eff
fects as are to be seen on the sheeny
mountain slopes of slaty gneiss, re-
splendent with a fiery bath of sunrise
and sunset, do not reappear in the
poets descriptions. And how little of
the romance of this varying region of
lake and mountain did Wordsworth
impart TO US. Here was a Scott want
ing. All the world, then. would have
known the mysteries of tarn and fell.
The background would have become as
familiar to us as the land of Burns
and Scott. With those writer's these old
hills Of slate and porphyry from Skid

heaven-refiecting from Derwentwater
to WindermeTe, would have served as
scenes before which the loves and the
hates Of man from the agOne DAYS of
ancient Britons to the modern lake
dweller might have been enacted. But
Wordsworth found his poetic inspira-
ton in nature rather than in man, and
he preferred to let US share in this ioy
rather than in poetic romances about
man.

just as Thorwaldsen's famous Luz
cerne lion is cut in the side of a rocky
cliff and is surrounded by a gr0tto of
natural rock, out of which it seems to
have sprung before the mighty iavelin
laid it low in death. so Wordsworth
must ever be associated with the envir-
onment Of hisSnative lakes and hills.

XXII.-GoLDEN AGE OF ENGLISH
POETRY.
BY THOMAS MARC PARROT'T, Ph. D.
THE power of Byron's personality .
it has been said, lies in his splen-
did and imperishable excellence of sin
certify and strength" This is an ad-
mirable appreciation, and yet it has
been doubted. To many Byron's great
est fault as a poet seems a lack of sin
cerity, shown Oy his fondness for a
pose Of mysterious gloom and a too
public parade of his bleeding heart.
HIS strength as we'll as his sincerity
has been denied. and hostile critics
point out his lack of self control his
Jealousy, his inability to accomplish
any one great work. But such criti-
eisms, after all. are one sided. fixing
upon the defects and overlooking the
better part. That there was much af-
fectation in Byron's character and
work is not to be denied The circum-
stances of his birth and training, the
corruption of the social atmosphere in
which he moved made this inevitable
