HOPE ON. TOLL ON.

o, my brother, are you wearyi
Does the way seem long and dreary
That leads up to the new era
You have pictured in your dreamsi
Ii your portion one of sorrow'
Yet be brave and strive TO borrow
From the glory Of the morrow
That beyond your vision CLEANS.
"Neveri" Cease the wall of rnever,"
For the race moves on forever
Up the highway of endeavor
To the heights that onward glow.
There is no room for despairing,
But for action and for daring,
And for helping and upbearing
One another as we go.
There are lives that we may brighten,
There are burdens we may lighten
There are joys that we may hcghten;
There are wounded hearts to bind;
There are fetters to be broken
There are blessings to be spoken;
Let us give them as token
OF the love we bear mankind.
See, II golden bow is bending
Over us. its glory lending
Unto us, a message sending
That the world is moving on,
From its ancient mooring drifting,
While the tides of thought are shifting,
And the broken msts are lifting
From the gateways of the dawn
o, my brother, cease complaining.
See, the night Of wrong is waning
And the king of right is reigning,
And the flag of hopes unfurled.
There are evils left for righting;
There are battles left for fighting;
There are beacons left for lighting,
To illuminate the world.
AS, when all her hues combining
In a golden-tinted lining,
Through the clouds the morn is shining.
So the Futures upturned face.
With glow OF promise burning.
My rapt spirit is discerning,
While humanity is turning
To the morning of the race.
Better days are breaking DER us,
From the nearing goal before us,
We can hear JOYOUS ch"ruS
Waited DER the wears to he.
Through the portals, open swinging.
Notes of sweet and rapturous. Singing
Down the Futures aiscs ringing
From the anthems Of the free
Rocky Mountain News.

But the west sends them the ha,

Protection a Principle.

Benjamin Harrison said in his

"The Republican party holds
that a protective tariff is constr
tutional, wholesome and neces-
rv. We do not offer a fixed
schedule. but a principle. We
will revise the schedule and nod
ify the rates, but always with
an intelligent provision as to
the effect upon domestic proiuc-
ton and the wages of our work
ing people. We believe it to be
one of the worthy objects oftar-
if legislation to preserve the
American market for American
producers and to maintain the
American scale of wages by ade-
quate Observation-Disclosures up
on foreign competingproducts. "
