their great sorrow.
Little Magdelene sleeps, the little face
Against the snowy pillow pressed;
The waxen hands with baby grace
Lie folded on the pulseless breast.
Little Magdelene sleeps, a sunbeam falls
Softly through the darkened room,
In golden ripples on the walls,
A radiant light amid the gloom.
Little Magdelene sleeps, beyond the tomb
Where streams of living water flow,
And brightest flowers ever bloom
Beneath the SUMS eternal glow.
Little Magdelene sleeps, the
Bright baby eyes
Are softly closed in slumber deep,
To rest with Him in Paradise
Who giveth his beloved sleep.

Mr.. Wagner is Humorous.

The somewhat dreary programme
marked out for the present session of
Congress is likely to be enlivened by
another effort on the part OF St. Louis
Republicans to unseat Mr.. Butler.
A partisan majority at the last ses-
sion outraged all sense of policical
decency by unseating the duly elected
member from the Twelfth Missouri
district.
The voters of that district rebuked
the constituencies majority by return
ing Mr.. Butler to his seat by a double
plurality.
Now Mr.. Wagner, the defeated
Republican candidate for the short
term, is endeavoring to persuade the
Republican majority in Congress to
repeat its former outrage.
Mr.. Wagner has al attorney at
Washington who is looking the field
over in his behalf.
The outlook is not very fattering to
Mr.. Wagner.
Even the grossly biased Speaker
Henderson is disposed to turn a deal
ear to his appeal.
Mr.. Wagner must have a poor
opinion of American manhood, as
represented at Washing ton, if he real
ly expects Congress to commit such a
f~irst-degree act of robbery as he would
have it perpetrate.
Partisenship will 60 to many ex
tremes; but there are surely enough
honest men on the Republican side in
Congress to prevent a repetition Of
the crime of the last session.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Wagoner's attorney
is reported as making the statement,
on behalf of his client, that 10, 600
fraudulent votes were cast in the
Twelfth Missouri district at the las
election.
In view Of the fact that the vote
recorded In that district at last months
election was the smallest in many
years, sMr. Wagoner's claim 10 toe
ridiculous to call for r~efutative argu
ment.
The claim is SO absurd that it be-
comes absolutely humorous.
Why does not Mr.. Wagner adhere
to the claim made by the Globe-Dem
ocrat the day after election
That able representative of the
lamented Baron M%unchausen said thai
the fraudulent vote cast In the Twelfth
district exceeded $4,000.
This is the better claim.
For it renders the situation 30 de-
lightfully simple.
II it be true no one voted for Mr..
Butler.
Beautifully simple!
Simply beautiful st. Louis World.

Ninety-Nine Honest Men.

A long time Mr.. Folk has been in a
very thick atmosphere OF corruption.
Crimes, f%articularly those Of rogue
cunning. perjury and deceit, have
been before his eyes in exaggerated
proportion. For a prolonged period
his gaze has rested solely upon the
seamy side of character.
Consequently it is refreshing to hear
him say that, after all, %ninety-nine
men in a hundred are honest. No.
body doubts that proposition-at least
nobody who is worth attention. The
proportion of crooks is trihing. Aside
from mans Inherent or intrinsic hon
esty, the inducements to be honest so
far overwhelm the temptations to be
otherwise that only perverted crea-
lures are led far astray-people Of
twisted vision.
The influence Of dishonesty, how
ever, is away beyond its numerical
strength, because of the pernlcious
activity and positive force of the
s%coundrel and the negative attitude Of
honesty. Honest persons are constitu-
tionally unsuspecting, unless he opo-
rates under their very noses they do
nothing to check the scoundrel. No
one v heard of a crusade for
honesty, while dishonesty is constant
ly seeking to extend its operations.
If every honest man had one ninety
ninth of the positive force for good
that the perniciously active scoundrel
has for bad, the latter's influence
would speedily be s~nnulled, unless
mathematics are all wrong; while if
every honest man strove for better
conditions with some OF the scoundrel's
real activity the latter would be forced
out Of business.
The dishonest man is a tolerated
enemy of society. waging constant
war. Society wages no war against
the conditions which permit him, and
Its defence of itself against him is of
the weakest sort. 1t simply Furnishes
him when he entangles himself in the
meshes of the law-which he does
only In rare instances.
The honest mans mere example has
no effect whatever upon a thief. While
it is true that If an honest man were
penned up for q lifetime with ninety
nine thieves he would have to turn
thief or perish, on the other hand a
thief might remain forever with nine
ty-nine good men and be a thief still,
If allowed opportunity. 1t rs only by
an active crusade that tie thief, the
criminal, the corrupt man can be
abolished. The active crusade will
begin when every honest man does his
full duty to the community in which
he lives.
Mr.. Folks r~eiteration OF an old
truth has peculiar Significance for
St. Louis at the present time. That

The Globe-D Democrat says: 1.-The
world has a very decided interest in
the report that Mexico is to adopt the
gold standard soon. Mexico's secur-
tiles are dealt In on many Of the ex
changes. Capitalists in most of the
great countries have money invested
In Mexico. All these have a direct
and emphatic interest In the matter OF
the standard IN that country" The
GID. is right. Every money shark
who has a part Of his surplus wealth
Invested in Mexican securities wants
that country to adopt the gold stand
ard. That act would at least double
the value of his bonds; the creditors
the people who. have the debt to
pay-who, In issuing the bonds under
the silver standard, gave full return
for all they received--they are not %
be considered except as geese ready
for the plucking. Or all devices for
robbery ever invented, the "sound
money" system reaches farther and
takes In more than aught else ever
conceived OF by the mind Of man.

The Post. Dispatch has begun war
upon ex-Gov. Stone, and the usual
amount of mud will fill the air from
nov on until the ides of March. The
average city paper has peculiar
methods: instead OF informing the peo-
pie in time, 1t waits until a candidate is
nominated, and then vents the know
edge that might have nipped the
Villains aspirations in the bud. Nine
times out of ten, the papers opposition
cuts no ice whatever, and 10 not intended
to do anything but sell the paper.
Sensationalism, with Its consequent
insincerity, governs all, and puts the
blush OF shame upon old-time people
and old-time methods. If Gov. Stone
had no chance TO be elected Senator,
be would, no doubt, in the eyes OF the
P.-D., be a patriot, a statesman, and a
fine judge Of good liquor.
