DYING VIKING TO HIS BOY.
Sing to me Of the sea-:

Sing to me of the sea:
| am wrapped in the arms of sleep:
The strands of her black hair blind
mine eyes,
Like the weeds of the darkest deep.
Strike thy harp loudly, boy,
For mine ears wax dead and dull:
Let me hear once more the breakers
roar,
AS they beat on the oaken hull.
Sing to me of the sea,
When she joys in her giant strength,
When she losses a ship in her mighty
arms,
And hurls her cable length:
Sing to me of the sea,
And the dangers that Norsemen
know,
When their galley reels from her
thunder strokes
And the swing of her wrestler's
throw.
Sing to me of the sea,
When she sleeps in her silken pride,
When the moon shows white through
the silver clouds
And lightens her reaches wide.
Sing to me of the sea,
When she wakes in her queenly
state,
When the sun CLOVIS bright on her
purple robes
Through the gold of his eastern
gate.
1t is still in the outer night,
With the stars and the sheeted
snow;
But the beams are rudy above my
From the light which the pine logs
throw:
1t shines on the brazen shields,
On the bronze of the ak and sword.
And the oars and the booms from the
boats below,
Drawn high from the frozen ford.
| shall die at the dawn of day,
But trust l shall pass in peace,
For the broken spear-head pains no
more,
And the heat and the anguish cease;
Then sing me saga, boy,
Till sink in the arms of sleep:
Let me hear once more the tempest
roar
AS the winds DER the waters sweep.
Sing to me OF the sea.
The songs which the breakers sing,
When their bound is the open sky
above
| And the far horizons ring:
| Sing to me of the sea,
The wind and the driving spray,
| When their journeys goal is the set
ting sun
And the red of the dying day.
| Sing to me of the sea,
Till | smell her pure cold breath,
| Till taste her salt kisses once again,
Ere pass to the fields of death;
Till list to the voice l love,
| So mighty, so sweet, so deep,
Till feel the heave of her mothers
breast,
AS she roci,s me--her child--to
| sleep.

The Charms of Music.

Music hath charms to soothe the
savage breast said the poet. So the
government will try and induce the
Indians in Minnesota to abandon their
war dances and other barbarian cere-
monies, including the beating of the

schools on all of the reservations,
teachers are to be employed and the
work Of educating the Indians to a
higher plane Of music than they have

The Question OF County Judge.

! incUmbe Of the Office OF Jou0ty
Judge. we desire to express the hope
that at the spring election he will be
succeeded by a good Republican.
Non-partisanship in judicial elections
is very fine shibboleth but we no.
tice that is peculiarly favored by
those who, having obtained
office by party nomination
and under a partisan standard,
can see no hope of retaining it by the
same means.
Our present county Judge sought
and found nomination at the hands
Of a Democratic convention. He is
now candidate for reelection as
..non-partisan." just what the rela-
ton is between this change of heart
aud the 2400 Republican plurality in
Grant county last November we do
not care to positively state. That
would be a matter Of opinion merely,
however strongly the circumstances
of the case might back our belief.
To come directly to the point:
Grant is an Overwhelmingly Re-
publican county. The Office OF Coun-
ty Judge is purely county office.
AS staunch Republican we are not
tickled to death to see couple OF
dyed in the-woo Democrats hold
down two county offices for an indefi-
mite period, or at pleasure. The
pleasure certainly must be all on
their side. We would not favor such
..cinch'' on the office of clerk treas
urer, clerk of the court register
or on any Office, in short, unless poss-
IDLY that Of coroner.

Bell Conservation At 81. Brendau's.

At the services Of the blessing Of
the new bell at st. Brendan's Church
on last Tuesday morning Rev. Father
Dillon, the pastor, was ably assisted
by the following neighboring clergy
men: Rev. Father Ryan, Of Moberly;
Rev. Father Haar, Of Martinsburg;
Rev. Father o'T1aherty, Of Macon
City, and Rev. Father Mahoney, OF st.
Louis
The programme for the occasion was
the service authorized and prescribed
by the church and was most complete,
beautiful and impressive. After mass
and the excellent sermon Of Rev.
Father Mahoney in the church, the
clergymen formed a procession at
the foot Of the altar and as II with
one voice chanted the prescribed psalm
set to Gregorian music, without ac-
compartment, and marching down the
aisle OF the church and out the front
entrance, were followed by the vast
congregation around TO the belfry,
where a neat platform had been con-
strncted, paused and continued the
chanting Of the music.
At the conclusion Of the singing,
Miss Maymle Sullivan and Mr.. Locke
Nolan, the sponsors for the bell, step
ped forward and each placed hand on
the bell, there Father Mahoney per.
formed the ceremony Of the blessing.
Immediately following this cere-
mony, Eater O'F1agerty in an instruc-
tive manner delivered a magnificent
discourse on the History OF Bells. He
isa magnetic speaker and held his
spell-bound audience with a flow Of
eloquence, then he touchingly recited
the beautiful poem entitled, Bells
written by a poet-priest. Uears came
into the eyes Of many and stiffness
prevailed over the vast assemblage.
The Catholics are justly proud Of
their splendid bell and are receiving
many compliments and c~ongratula.
tions from their many friends Of all
denominations.

Whsrs the Doctor, Disagree.

The chief points Of disagreement
among President McKinleys ply
sicians may be summed up thus:
l. All the others blame DR.. McBur-
ney for unwarranted hopeful state
ments Of the Presidents condition.
. AS to the track Of the wound
made by the second bullet, DR.. Park
says that it penetrated the psncreas.
The others say that it did not.
,. AS TO the cause Of gangrene, DR..
Wasdin says it looks to him like poison
from a poisoned bullet. The Others
think not.
4 DR.. Park says be thinks the pan
%creatic fluid is responsible for gan
creme. The Others deny that the pan
creatic fluid escaped from the pancreas-
s.. AS TO the extent Of gangrene Dr..
Mann said he found gangrene in the
surface Of the wound made By the
second bullet when he opened 1t on
Tuesday and that be cut away the
mortified flesh there before sewing II
up again.
G. Dr. Park says there was nc gan
creme found there at that time.
=. As TO the case in general, some
say il is a rare case, Others that Il had
few extraordinary features.

Can the advocacy Of the destruction
Of all government the production Of
civil chaos, BY any means whatever,
and especially by assassination, be ac-
eepted as a part and parcel Of the
freedom Of speech Such an idea is
stretching that honored doctrine too
far. 1t IS more, it is horrible and l
doE't believe any court in America
would so decide.
There has never been a President
who was not severely criticised, some
Of them hitterly'denounced; but, thank
God, no American-born citizen has
ever advocated the prime principle Of
anarchy-"the uprooting and over
throwing Of all government.
There is no law in this country de-
fining anarchy or an anarchist and,
consequently, no law providing a pun
ishment for an anarchist. Let the
Federal and State Constitutions be
amended in whatsoever way it may be
necessary, and as quickly as possible.
Let all the world know that he who
advocates anarchy in this land and
those who join an a~narchistic society,
or promote such an organization,
shall die, and alll win be well in a
short time.
William Mckinley sleeps the sleep
OF death. He was killed, not because
he was deemed a bad man, or a bad
Chief Magistrate, but because he rep
resented the idea OF government, law
and order. The assassin says this him
self. Whether Emma Goldman sug-
gested, or advised, or aided in desig-
mating him to do this terrible work, I
know not but he declares that he was
made an anarchist and impelled tc
his deed of murder by her speeches
and her writings. She deserves death
BY hanging, and it is hoped that her
completely in the deed OF shame and
disgrace may be established beyond
all reasonable doubt, and that she
may meet her just reward. The an.
arckists must go.

MAYORS PROCLAMATION.

A sad bereavement has befallen our
nation. The Chief Executive, William
Mckinley lies In the cold embrace Of
death, the result Of a cowardly
a~sSassin's bullet; a crime committed
not only against our Chief Magis-
trate but against every law-abiding
citizen Of the United States.
1t is proper that every citizen be
given an opportunity to express the
love and reverence that exists in the
hearts Of our people.
Now, therefore, in conformity with
the expressed wish and proclamation
Of President Roosevelt and Governor
Dockery, l, W. X. Potts, mayor Of the
city Of Mexico, do appoint Thursday,
Sept. 18th, as a day Of mourning and
prayer in said city, and earnestly re-
quest that all business houses be clos
ed from 2 to 4 O'Clock p. M, that all
people may assemble at the places APP
pointed to give expression to the love
and reverence We feel for the depart
ed Chleftain. Let all loyal, liberty
loving, God-fearing people govern
themselves accordingly.

ers were working. Both the miners
and operators held that the other

was ordered by the United Mine
Workers Union Of America.
