it was q disgrace for them to keep
com pany with young men who voted
against the principles for which they
stood. The girls agreed that he was
right, and so informed the young men.
OF course, the young men refused to
have anyone dictate how they should
vote, and said so In loud voice. The
johnson girls quietly informed them
that in such case their company was
not wanted. The young men with

A DAYTIME TUNE.

The sun sings out in dawn dappled sky. e
And a feetfis moon croons pale reply, Il
While the star crowded chorus
Beneath, round and DER us
Comes muffied, uncertain,
Through the days drawn curtain,
And the waking world lifts a workaday cry
To mate with the rnartiaing music on high
Right good for the soul it is, drifting through
dreams, .
But it's drawer to pillow where the fat earth
teens;
The cGice is better
Than the lotus fetter,
And sxeeter than the bottle
Is the wide engine throttle;

any contribution to the campaign will
say that he has been subjected to the
least coercion, morally or otherwise. No
one has been asked to contribute any
stated sum or any portion Of his sal
airy. The fact that it was decided to
open a convenient place where cOntri-
buttons might be made by employees
was owing to the voluntary practice of
many TO offer campaign contributions
either in the shape OF money or clerical
or other work at the Republican head
quarters. There never was any system
about it, and on this account the MEM
bers of the house decided to open rooms
at some central point for a few days,
