REPUBLICAN ATTITUDE OF IN
CURRY.

Secretary Wilson recently paid a
visit to the northwest ami makes a re-
port on what he saw. heard and OBJ
served. He says the republicans are
everywhere in IAN attitude of inquiry
This report is of interest to those who
have kept up with the efforts of the
republicans to explain away h tariff
revision plank in the platform Of the
Iowa republican state convention. Mr..
Wilson finds the republicans Of that
section asking such question IS: Have
not the great combinations get beyond
control of the government" Gould
not certain industries survive IL present
tariff duties were lowered?' Mr.. Will
sons observations lead him to the con-
clusion that these people do not be-
lieve that the tariff schedules are in
spired like the Lords Prayer" and he
could have added nor based On the
Golden Rule. The secretary seems to
think well Of this studious attitude Of
the republicans of the northwest and
he commends it to the attention Of the
party leaders. II they do not heed II
the democrats cannot force them to do
so, but can abide their time and reap
the benefit of republican blindness or
-stubbornness, which ever you may
choose to call it. That party has con-
troll of legislation until December, 1905.

MAUD MULLER.

A London Journal quotes APP
proviugly the following version OF
"Maud Muller" which, it says,
"haiIs from the other side, If
course" Printed as prose, it runs
thus: "Maud Muller on a sum-
mer's day raked the meadows fresh
with hay. and the bumblebee and
garter snake she also raked with
her little rake. And the wind that
blew that summers day, brought
Maud freckles in a frightful way;
and her neck was roasted, and her
face was baked, but still she raked
and raked and raked. 1t seems
that her pap was away that day to
some political tolderay, and her
mother too, was a delegate 10 a hen
convention out of the State. And
the hired man in his hand-me-
down was attending a circus
in town. So Maud was left alone
that day to do the chores and rake
the hay. And she pitched right III
her level best and only took an oc-
casional rest, then she'd spit on her
hands once more and take a better
hold of her little rake. But as she
wrestled the ew-mown grass, these
words from her lips lid sadly pass,
LOT all sad words OF tongue or pin,
the saddest are, They're gone a :

a thousand shylocks who
count what per cent they

their fellowman.
