| hear the wild geese honking
From out the misty night
a sound of moving armies
On-sweeping in their might;
The river ice is drifting
Beneath their northward fight.
I hear the bluebird plaintive
From out the morning sky.
or see his wings atwinkle
That with the azure vie,
No other bird more welcome.
No more prophetic cry.
I hear the sparrow's ditty
A-near my study door
a simple song OF gladness
That winter days are Ger.
nv heart is singing with him,
/ love him more and more.
I hear the starting fiuting
His liquid "o-ka-lee.
/ hear the downy drumming
His vernal reveille.
And from out the maple orchard
The nuthatch calls 10 me.
Oh. spring is surely coming.
Her couriers OH the air.
Each morn are new arrivals,
Each night her ways prepare,
| scent her fragrant garments,
Her foot Is on the stair.

IT: WILL BE A SC0RCHER
Grand uJry's Report Will Furnish
Additional Information of Mu-
nicipal Rottenness. ~...a~

The report which the graz nd jury is ex-
pected to make in its resume of the mu-
ricipal corruption which has startled the
country, will be interesting reading. It
is intimated that the report will be a
"scorcrer,' on a par with the observa-
tions of the St. Louis grand jury as to the
conditions which have recently dissraced
that city. - = ~. ~ t.-.z
In the case of the Missouri metropolis
the grand jury's report was a revelation;
here it is simply a confirmation of what
is already known or suspected. While
the Hennepin grand jury has been forced
to confine +itselfsto such evidence as would
on its face Justify an indictment,
enough was heard to convince the jury
that: the municipal rottenness which ex-
listed in the heydey Of the Ames admin
istratton was more far-reaching than has
generally been supposed. All this will be
touched on. in the report.
The jury is not yet through with it's in
vestigation.: and 1t is known that its mem
bers are in favor Of making a clean job
of the big task which has been prosecuted
so well UP to date. More indictments
may yet follow. - i.

A GOOD >PROMISER.

senatorial fight which has been decidedly
quiet since Judge Cowan's defeat in Ram
sey county. It is understood that john
son has the promise Of votes from some
of the legislative districts in the north
western part of the state >a.~r-
Tratlls county is expected to be one Of
Johnson's tstrongholds. Colonel w. H.
Robinson, his manager in the last sena-
torial fight, is a candidate for the state
senate from that county. Grand Forks
county is also. expected Ito supply some
johnson votes. There is little affection
between the friends of Johnson and those
of Hansbrough> Alexander Mckenzie is
decidedly. antagonistic to johnson and 1t
is thought the announcement Of john
sons candidacy will bring Mckenzie. into
the fight as a more active factor at once
c.. B. Little of Bismarck, the other can
didate, is lining up votes on the Missouri
slope. - ,.--. 49,. '.
Since the last senatorial fight the lead
ers Of the republican machine have con-
graduated themselves on the fact that
johnson after long reign in North Da-
kota politics was politically dead. Whether
they liked, it. or not these men were for
years forced to concede johnson the
nomination for congress purely out OF
fear Of the Scandinavian element, with
which Johnson was strong. Since John
sons retirement less has been heard OF
the Scandinavian influence in North Da-
kota politics, and the = last: republican
state convention nominated but one
Scandinavian, Frich Of Lakota, for at
torney general. For a time it was doubt
full If even this place would be conceded.
! This resulted In the organization Of
Scandinavian republican league, which, al
ready has a flourishing and aggressive
! organiza tion in Fargo. .-.'5' ~, =.
The results Of Johnson's campaign fol
! the senate will be watched with interest
There are some old scores to be squared
and johnson is willing to take part M
the 'souaring" in addition to his amb1-
tion to go to the senate. When he came
