LOVE COMES NOT BACK.

Tho following poem was written by Mrs. Con-
stance Bowen on her seventy-sixth birth
anniversary:
Love comes not, for AM old.
And Joy belongs to Youth and Spring.
HOarse Is sad age, and cannot sing,
And Lies a tale that has been told.
There Is no charm to make me bold.
When hope and dreams have taken wings.
Love Gomez not back, for | am old,
And Joy belongs to Youth and Spring.
Nay will seek LIES hidden gold.
The treasure that the years may bring:
The hopes To which the heart may cling;
The mystic dream Life has not told.
LOVE MAY COME BACK, though am old.
And Joy may lind another Spring

COWardly Assault.

Last Sunday morning. between and
2 O'Clock. q young man by the name of
Will Wylie, who works for A. c. Farrow.
was going home from the Missouri Pa
cific depot. He had just returned from
Greeley. When he reached the street
corner at the home of Quincy McAfee,
two fellows, unknown to him, assaulted
him, and one of them knocked him down
with stone, cutting his head badly.
Wylie undertook to get up, and one of
the fellows kicked him in the right side.
little back. The fellows then ran
away.
Wylie has no idea OF who hi, assaiI-
ants are, and, as he is young man who
attends strictly to his own business and
has no enemies that he knows of. he
thinks the fellows mistook him for some
one else. No effort was made to take
anything from him, so it was not an
assault tor robbery.
Wylie, whose people live at Greeley.
went back, Monday. He is badly
bruised and cut about the head.

A Caucus Law.

Ia 1896, Edwin F. Palmer, Esq, then
the able member of the House of Rep
resentatives from Waterbury, and the
proposer of some very wholesome legis-
lation, introduced bill regulating the
holding Of caucuses, specifying who
should be entitled to vote in these pri-
maries, and punching illegal participa-
ton, or attempt to participate, in such
meetings. 1t was a good and proper
measure, similar in its provisions to
laws then existing in some other States
in the Union. The bill passed the
House by good majority, but the sem
ate jumped upon it and incontinently
slaughtered it.
Josiah Grout was then Governor
1t was one of the we'll understood facts
of the canvass ending in Mr.. CIRCUITS
nomination that delegates favorable to
his selection as the Republican candi-
date for Governor had in many in
stances been chosen by the votes al
caucuses of men who were not Repub
licans, and had no right to be or tc
vote in Republican caucus, if mora
rights and proprieties were to be re-
garded in politics. The presence Of
these men in a Republican caucus foi
the purpose Of voting, and the act Of
their voting therein, was in the nature
of fraud. 1t was gross politica
wrong. 1t had the effect in that can
vass to prostitute and reverse the &C
ton OF Republican convention.

A Case in Point.

The Journal has referred, in connec-
ton with the senatorial canvass, TO "the
gross eXaggeration, the undue magni-
flying of services, the misrepresentation,
the false claims, all for political effect"
put out by the Grout papers and sup
porters to puff up their candidates.
somewhat meagre record Of eighteen
years in the Congress OF the United
States. The Mortified Ne,os illustrates
and emphasizes this observation by
citing the matter OF the military post
near Essex Junction. Credit for &C.
curing the establishment of this post in
Vermont is set down by his ardent
Grout. Every one at all familiar with
the bottom facts OF the initiation and
maturing Of the project for creating the
military post, some ten or twelve years
ago, while Mr.. Proctor was secretary of
war and General Schofeld was at the
head of the army, is able to make the
proper credits in this matter. When
the project had been advanced to the
legislative stage Mr.. Proctor was in
the Senate. The preparation OF the
bill for establishing the post naturally
came into his hands and the measure
was under bis immediate charge during
to the period Of its consideration. The
bill was introduced simultaneously in
the Senate by Proctor and in the House
by Grout, but it became law as a rider
on an appropriation bill. General
Grout undoubtedly did his duty in the
matter, and respecting this state OF the
facts the Netos pointedly says:
mo one had raised the question that
General Grout had not done his duty fully in
supporting this measure It is lugged in by
main strength by the Circuit press. Senator
Proctor, who has always had the credit Of
originating and controlling the scheme Is
left almost or quite out Of consideration and
the voters are asked to support General
CIRCUITS candidacy because he worked in the
interest Of this bill. 1t Is impossible to think
Of Morrill, or Edmunds or Proctor bringing
such an argument to bear upon his consti-
tuency just before his election or re-elec-
ton. There must be something pretty weak
In a candidacy that requires plain duty to
be held up to the voters under a powerful
msgnifying glass"

In China.

In the war of 1894 Japan was driv-
ing like sheep the Chinese soldiery
from the path Of her victorious armies.
Gongs and instruments for creating
racket have been considered the favor
tie weapons of the warfare of the Co.
lestials. A change seems to have come
over the spirits Of Cinnamon and in
the instruments of their warfare. The
men OF the race that fed covering be-
fore the onset of the Japanese, and who
used to seek to hoo.doo their enemies
with the din Of gongs and tom-toms,
are stoutly withstanding the trained
troops of Europe and America, and
shooting with arms of modern construc-
ton, in all branches of the service. APP
parently China learned something from
her contact with Japan and took the in
struction to heart.
The time seems to have gone by
when single regiment of Europeans
can overawe and put to flight Chinese
army. Moreover, the demon that has
been awakened in China and stirred to
bloody frenzy is kind of barbaric
patriotism. China, the most ancient of
surviving empires, deems her existence
threatened by outside foes whose coun-
tries were unknown when the Celestial
Kingdom was the "world power" of the
globe, and the Chinese have risen in a
paroxysm of murderous fury to repel
the foreigners. 1t is the inertia of
centuries rushing to the other extreme
of uncontrolled and untempered ener-
gy. All its fury is aimed at civliza-
ton. The forces of civilization are it's
first victims, but when all the causes of
the ungovernable outbreak are an
alyzed, it will undoubtedly be found, as
in the case of the awful horrors of the
French Revolution, that there are ex-
planatory if not exactly extenusting or
justifying circumstances.
The common people of France,
ground into the dust and brutalized by
centuries of lordly disregard of the
commonest OF human rights or in
stincts, were not entirely deliberate,
judicial and discriminating when they
got the whiprow on their oppressors,
Cause and effect simply maintained
their customary relation. The newt
able consequences of long-continued
abuse, injustice and repression followed
when the opportunity for reaction and
vengeance came. 1t would not be sur
prising if the Chinese outbreak should
prove to be in some sort the French
Revolution with inevitable variations
which do not, however, according t.
the reports, pertain to violence an(
blood-letting that are of the jungl
rather than of human habitation.
