"AUTUMN THOUGHTS"

Autumn is here, with its green and gold,
Autumn Is here with its wealth untold;
The roundness and fullness of all the year
Nestes and clusters about us here.
Spring with its promises all fulfilled,
Seeds that We're planted, nurturcd and
TILED
Brought forth n hundred fold and more,
And the earth is rich with penteous
store,
Plans that We're formed for the summer
Have fruited and ripened along the line.
And the bounteous air Is harnessed now
To drive the wheel or draw the plow.
The earnest labor of heart and hand
Has enriched and gladdened the glorious
land
Mankind is better and truer, ! know,
By the lesson of life that is taught below,
The golden year Is almost spent,
And the garment of peace is sadly rent,
War and conflict. strife and hate,
Are blocking the road to the shining gate.
Money, money-more moneys the cry;
Power more power, or else we die;
Lands, and ships, and fame, and gold
This Is the cry of young and old,
Like childish cries I'm the market place;
Like "A hoy throwing snow in anothers

Fools without wit i'm the game they play

vocative, of many bright predictions
for his future career in his new office.
Mr.. Seamans also came in for Il good

the burdens which the Democracy al

Here the matter rests. 1t is a matter
for our Democratic friends to decide

naturally at his time of life appreciate

duly grateful to those friends among
his political opponents who are advs-

But he is simply spectator awaiting

Democratic affair and should reflect

scant encouragement In these groups;
and the man who does not know how
to behave himself Is quickly treated to
case of "cold shoulder" The intel
lectual tone of this society varies with
place and circumstance; but the moral
tone Is quite uniformly clean. What
deviltry there is Is committed under
cover and to be found out means dis
grace and exile.
Compared with this great solid bulk
of cleanly and reputable society the
few small circles of dizzy wantonness
or restless capriciousness constitute
actually an almost negligible quantity.
Our Four Hundred figure far more
numerously in the sensational prints
than In the census reports or in the
scale of determinative influences But
for the opportunities which they supply
to lovers of lurld rhetoric like our ir-
repressible old friend Colonel Waiter
son, they would actually soon pass into
oblivion and be unheard of by nine
Americans in every ten.
