GfaGatiOns

A poor man took-they called it stole
A gunny sack half filled with coal.
To him, it seemed like hope and life,
For his young babe and failing wife.
A cop rushed up-they grapple, fight;
In vain the poor man smote with
might
That night his wife and infant died
And when the prisoners case was
tried
Condemned, by jury of his peers;
To Sing Sing doomed for twenty
years.
Three desperate tramps-in hunger's
rage,
Held up well-filled, frontier stage.
Yes, blood was shed, for some would
slay,
Ere parting with their gold, that way
One tramp was shot-the others fled,
Still weak from hunger-want Of
bread
Blood-hounds were sent out ON their
trail
Mangled and manned when lodged in
Jail
Tried and condemned-the two were
hung
A warning-to the old and young!
Six idle toughs, great husky scamps-
Some called them vicious, murderous
tramps-
Derail a train-blow off a door,
Dynamite the safe-find gold galore
They clutch and grab, till three are
slain
Shot down by men who run the train.
With loads of loot--three left-took
fight.
Yet they were trailed-yes. shot at
sight
All killed, save one, whose wounds
will share,
That doom of dooms-the electric
chair!
A greater gang-a hireling horde,
Long drilled to fight with gun and
sword,
To march on land, or sail the sea
In search of weakness, or some plea
TO conquer, crush-despoil, or kill,
10 please their rulers murderous
will
Till burning cities light the plain
"A bowling Wilderness of slain.
Men call these: heroes; Patriot band
Shout "Glory!" and achievements
grand"

surdity of the situation is made more
manifest when definition that will
separate value from price" is de-
manded. Price is value expressed in
terms of money. 1t Is just as reason
able to demand a. definition of fruit
that would separate it from apples.
Ricardo, to distinguish the meaning
of value in exchange from other
meanings of the word, prefixed the
word "exchangeable," and called it
"exchangeable value" The language
of writer must be interpreted of
course, according to the thought of
his time, but during the time Of Smith
and Ricardo the criticism implied by
the question How can value be ex.
changeable?" would not have been
justified. 1t certainly would not be
justified now, and. if they were alive
today. they might exclaim concern
ing that, and the demand for a def
milton that would limit value to one
precise meaning, what nonsense!"
We do not need definitions but ideas
expressed in language that will be
understood by the average reader. who
has neither the time nor the inclina-
ton to follow an attempt to recon-
struct either the science Of economics
or the language of it's literature.

A False Report.

The Co-operator, Kansas City, Mo-,
under date of January "a, 1903. says:
The cooperative movement in
Kansas City continues to grow. The
statement in the daily papers concern
ing the failure of the cooperative
movement was misunderstanding.
and consequently a mis-statement Of
the situation.
Mr.. VroOman has not lost a cent
in experimenting ON cooperation. An
employe may have mis-directed or
mis-appropriated s. but all the
rest that he has into the move
ment was not lost mt spent in es-
tablishing the bust. ,ss of CONNER
cial cooperation. All other reports
to the contrary are false"

DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are easy
and pleasant to take.
Most of the available land is now
taken up and it is necessary to get the
consent of the owner-this is easily
secured. Most everyone is anxious
to get the oil pumped out of his soil
and in some cases you might get n
small fee say five cents barrel for
clearing the ground of this oil.
Your material for derrick can easily
be secured at high tide on the Arkan-
saw by little skill in catching tim.
bers as they float down the river.
If you are in an, way connected with
newspaper around the ''diggins"
there are few things you must
familiarize yourself with. Some
time ago while we were holding down
the business office while the manager
went out to get drink a man rushed
wildly in and demanded in stentorian
tones the date of the Sullivan X Kilrain
fight. We told him, but it was a
guess and was wrong just five years.
He happened to know the year and
the question was one of three days.
The smile on that fellows face was
the kind that won't wear off.
A business man on Main street sug-
gested yesterday the advisibility OF re-
moving the small stones that obstruct
travel on Main street. 1t certainly
would be advisable to clean up before
July Fourth The city council will
probably take the matter in hand so
the governor will not risk limb and
life in crossing Main street.
A young man got off the westbound
train for a day last Friday. He was
eDroute to Granite. When he found
out that his next train was midnight
he wisely concluded to wait till morn
ing He wanted to see the town any
way and inspect our street railway.
We met him back in 30 at Stray
Horse Gulch where his father now
resides and owns considerable mining
property He at once recognized us
on the street and after handing over
a cigar related his experience for the
few years past. Two years ago while
journeying from Denver to Cripple he
met young lady on the train destined
for Cripple. A trivial circumstance
happened which gave him an oppor-
tuDity to converse with her. 1t was
the old story-love at first sight and
the perfidy of woman. After an ac-
qaintance Of three months they became
engaged. The social requirments at
Cripple Greek are very exacting.
The millionaires up three have set
the pace. Long engagements are con.
sidered proper. The ceremony was
scheduled for this month. A mum Der
of miners were going to Touopab,
Nevada. aud the young fellow
concluded to JOIN them before settling
down for life Last week he returned
and found the girl had married a
miner six months previous. 1t WAS a
narrowing story to listen to and as he
gazed at the pinacle of an oil derrick

The ills which vex so many women at

 This is the sixty seventh day of the strike, and at times yesterday there were hopeful signs visible that it might be the last day of the strike. These signs proved deceptive, how ever Nothing daunted, we are once again lined up in solid ranks, prepared to continue the struggle to the end.

FOUND DEAD TO-DAY.
Veteran of the Civil War Had Been
 Living Alone.

i. ss t
 Falls Village, Conn, March 1S.- -Gra- ham Vosburgh, veteran of the civil war, was found dead to-day at his home here where on account of domes- tic difficulties he had lived alone for some time. The indications were that Vosburgh died on Monday night, and the medical examiner has decided that death was due to strangulation brought about by an attack of acute pneumon- ia. He was last seen by neighbors on Monday afternoon, when, in spite of a cancer from which he was suffer- ing, he was doing odd jobs about his house. His absence yesterday was noticed, and this morning Mrs Vos- burgh, who although separated from her husband, has remained with her son in this village, went to the house. Finding the doors locked, she secured the aid of neighbors and entering found the body. Vosburgh was 65 years old and was well known in the town.

An Example of Youth Carried Ihte
 Old Apa

An Example of Youth Carried Into
 Old Age.
 Most men as they grow old grow also cold. They lose faith in the world, even if they retain their faith in the hereafter, but Senator Hoar is as young of heart as his senior by many years, the great pontif who guides an even yaster congregation than that embraced by the church which he rules through his wisdom, wise counsel and unerring faith. Wide apart as they are in every other way, the pope and the puritan are as one in their sublime trust that God will not desert mankind or let it wander after strange gods, like the false ones of commercialism, con- quest and pseudo science
 Let the pessimist hug their dreary doctrine; the world is not growing worse but better. A much younger man than Senator Hoar can easily re- member when the weak had few rights which the strong was bound to respect. Within forty years human slavery has been abolished in every civilized and half civilized country. In the same period the real rights of woman have been recognized and guaranteed; cruelty to animals has been made unsafe; labor has achieved many triumphs, althougs 1t still suffers from many wrongs; brutal parents and brutal husbands can no longer treat their helpless ones as they used to treat their more helpless cattle,
 The world is moving but that is no reason why it should not be encourag- ed to keep in motion. Happily, such men as Senator Hoar are not content with progress effected. They will cry for further advance. Such men are never old. No one until he ceases to think for others and begins to go down the evolutionary decline, to vege- tation and inorganic petrif1cation,- Boston Post.
