Don't Despise the Boys.

Don't plague the bashful country boy
Who looks with awe upon you now;
His clothes are poor and he is coy,
And tangles up his legs somehow
So that he stumbleS awkwardly
In making way for you-but he
So guileleSS now, SO poorly dressed,
May hide away down in his breast
A Lincoln'S heart. or be possessed
OF wishes such as Garfield had
To stand where but the greatest may
Don't laugh out at the country lad
Who passes awkwardly today.
Don't spurn the poor boy in the street
Who tries to pass and jostle you;
The shoes are ragged on his feet,
His trousers may be tattered. too.
With grimy hands and tangled hair,
He lodges here and hurrieS there,
Too little for his years, but still
Deep in his breast may be the will
That spurred Carnegie up the hill.
Forgive the child who sometimes dareS
To play a little on his way
Down in the busy thoroughfareS
Are boys the world shall know some day
On country boy, I lift my hat
la humble Difference to you;
oh little worker in the street,
Clad in your soiled and tattered blue,
With awe L watch you as you pass
l might cry Bravo if l knew,
Oh ragged tired, awkward boy.
What things God sent you here to do.

MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York. April 9.-There was notable
speculative movement in the stock mar
ket, today, which universally is attrbut-
cd to the operations of an important COM
bination of wealthy Western men who
were important factors in the constitu-
ent companies going to make up the
United States Steel Corporation before
that corporation was organized In the
ordinary acceptance of the terms there
was no news to explain the movement cf
stocks or the enormous buying which
caused il. There was abundance of ru-
mOrS, which centered mostly about Louis
vile & Nashville which was again the
leader of the market in point of activity
and sustained strength There was some
credence for a suggestion that the mar
keting OF the new stock just announced
had involved the creation of a large short
interest in the market, for the relief of
which new stock will not be available as
a delivery until the formalities of listing
on the Stock Exchange had been COM
piled with. This explanation would not
apply to the notable broadening of the
speculative movement. today. into other
quarters Of the market. Louisville itself

by concentrated interests. The electrical
stocks and New York Air Brake made
wild advances and almost equally sensa-
tional relapses The late furry in tie

narrow resources of the present money

If You wait until it goes that far don't

Six More Republics?

President Benrcr of Switzerland is
reported TO have made the prediction
that within so years there will be six
more great republics in Europe in
place of existing monarchies. He dis
cyeetly RETAINED from mentioning
names. 1t sounds like d wild predic-
ticn to the casual observer. for while
some thrones in Europe are upon
somewhat unsafe foundations none
seem at the present time to be tOtter-
ing or in danger of falling. Half a
century, viewed from the summit Of
the ages, seems u ridiculously brief
period for such a transformation as
the rate the world is moving now
great things may be accomplished in
that time. Political development is
not the slow process it used to be. It
has kept pace with the progress in the
arts ana sciences. Think. for instance,
of the position now held among the
powers Of the world by the United
states. in comparison with its place
half 4 century ago. or even a genera
ton or a decade ago.
What are the six European nations
which President Benner has in mind?
l. England one of them? Undoubtedly
that country faces Il commercial and
military crisis, but we hardly believe
that Edward VII or his son will be its
last King. 1t lacks little of being a re-
public now, but the little it lacks is
something which the English race has
cherished for over a thousand years.
Germany has it's socialists, but there
is not the slightest sign on the horizon
that it tends toward a republic. Ask
Kaisar William what he thinks of the
idea. Russia? Hardly. 1t cannot be
a republic until it has advanced to
constitutional government and that
step is not in sight. Austria Hungary
is likely to have stormy times ahead
when Emperor Francis Joseph dies.
Perhaps President Benner sees a posi-
BILE republic there. There is unrest in
Spain, and Italy is fond of revolutions
Are they likely to become republics?
Greece was once 4 republic, or some
thing approaching one; it may be
again. Does the Swiss prophet count
on Holland. Belgium. Denmark
Sweden or Portugal? All are conser-
vatism, and rooted for centuries in
their monarchial form of government,
and all are at peace and loyal to their
present reigning houses. So where do
the half dozen republics come in which
are to join sunny France and noun
famous little Switzerland in Europe
before 1852? Every one can have as
many guesses as he wishes, and when
the half century has passed we will all
compare notes. We do not believe the
royal families will be seriously dis
turbed by President Benners predic-
ton.

New Jersey and the Anarchists.

New Jersey proposes to vindicate her
that pestilential brood of anarchists
whose activities within her borders
particularly in Patterson, have been
so marked in the past few years. 1t
was this nest of vermin that sent out
the assassin of the king of Italy, and
in it's midst there were open rejoicings
when Czolgosz perpetrated his hellish
crime. Not satisfied with the string
ency and scope of the present laws,
the Legislature has been considering
several bills dealing with the suppress
sion of anarchy. and, this week, one
has been passed and signed by Cover
nor Murphy. This bill provides the
death penalty for any person who as
saults or incites another to assault the
President or President of the
United States, the Governor, or any
ture or oratory is discouraged by pro-
viding a fine of $4,000 or Imprisonment
for Is years, or both, for attempting
by public or private speech, writing or
printing to subvert any and all govern
ments, encouraging hostility thereto.
or becoming a member of any organi-
cation for such purpose.
The law is severe but so it ought to
be. Public sentiment in New Jersey
or any other state, in view of what
TRANSFERRED last fall, would support a
law against anarchy much more
sweeping and severe than New Jersey
has enacted. This is not the time OF
land for talk to be made in defense OF
those who would overthrow govern
ments, subvert all law and destroy the
basis of all civil society Their poison
Gus doctrines have been too openly and
too widely disseminated in our coun-
try, and freedom of speech and the
liberty of the press have been abused
and made mockery of. New Jersey
has set Il good example for other
enough law to deal effectively with an
archists and anarchy suitable laws
should be passed at once. and once
PASSED should be enforced to the letter
The least Congress can do in the mat
ter is to pass the pending bill for the
better protection of the President.
