POEMS WORTH KNOWING
IT Is NOT ALWAYS MAY.
BY LONGFEL.LOW.

The sun Is bright-the air is clear.
The darting swallows soar and sing,
Ana from the stately e!ms / hear
The bluebird prophesyinG Spring.
So blue yon winding river flows
II seems an outlet from the sky,
Where. waiting till the west wind blows.
The freightsd clouds at anchor lie.
All things are new-the buds, the leaves.
That gid the elm trees noddinG crest,
And even the nest beneath the caves
There are no birds in last years nest!
All things rejoice in youth and love.
The fitness OF their first delight!
And learn from the soft heavens above
The melting tenderness of night.
Maiden, that read'st this simple rhyme,
Enjoy thy youth, it Will not stay:
Enjoy the fragrance OF thy prime
For oh. it is not always May.
Enjoy the Spring OF Love and Youth,
To some good angel leave the rest;
F'or time will teach thee soon the truth,
There are no birds in last years nest.

New Orleans Picayune.
Beginning on Sunday next,
the Southern Pacific Railroad
will inaugurate the running of
trains into the Union Depot at
Howard Avenue, heretofore
known as the Illinois Central
Depot, and belonging to that
road. The trains of the South
ern Pacific will be ferried across
the river at Avondale, above the
city, and then be run through
the yards of the Illinois Central
Railroad into the Howard Street
Depot.
The ferriage of trains across
the river will involve no difficulty
whatever, as it has been done
for years, both by the Texas
Pacific and Southern Pacific rail
roads, in transferring their
trains from the city to Algiers
and Gouldsboro. The arrival
and departure of the Southern
Pacific trains from so central a
location as the Illinois Central
Depot will be an important pub

An Educational Catechism

Is the child the supreme interest of the
State?
Is the education of the child the greatest
investment of the State?
Can there be any better test of true cti-
zenship than activity for public education?
Should the payment of taxes for schools
be considered more of a privilege than a
duty?
Is it wrong to the child to keep him in 4
poor school nearby when he might attend a
way?
Can the problem of education in the South
be solved without district taxation?
Should we expect efficient system of
public schools if we do not have non partisan
specialists school officials?
Can we employ suitable teachers on poor
salaries?
Is manual training in the schools neces-
sity luxury?
Is the influence of attractive school houses
and grounds of decided educative value?
Should emphasize only those studies
that contribute most to the usefulness OF the
pupil in after life?
Can the South rise to Industrial prominence
without industrial education?
Would agricultural courses in the public
schools greatly increase the product of South
ern farms?

SENSIBLE MSS DAsxAM

SE.HSIBZE MISS DASKAM
Miss Josephine Daskam is a
sensible woman. OF course,
there are many sensible women.
and in saying that Miss Daskam
is sensible woman it must not
be inferred that she is the only
member of the fair sex who has
her share of gray matter. That
would be lurid falsehood, and.
without proceeding any further,
The Gazette wishes it to be dis
tinctly understood that no such
inference is intended. But Miss
Daskam is unusually sensible.
She is more than that. She is
eminently practical. She sees
things, not like Eugene Fields
little boy saw them, but as they
really are. She was a speaker
at the convention of Pilgrim
Mothers in Boston last week and
this is what she said:
If you cannot in this genera
ton get your vote. you always can
get your voter. Women have al
see but what that's just as good.
think there is great deal of
unnecessary twaddle these days
about the increasing strenuous
ness of the young girl. 1 don't
think she has changed so much.
She has no more mind. She may
l.
but it's the same old mind, the
same energy that she uses.
There are two things which wo-
men must always have had since
the creation to be successful, and
those two things are the same in
the far-off islands of the Pacific
and in the high school in Massa-
chusetts. A woman to be sue
cessful must be good and she
must be charming. There may
be something interesting in the
bad woman, but she can't per-
petuate nations, and after all that
was the main purpose of our Gre
alton. I think. If a woman is
good and nothing else, she will
be as dull as anything the world
ever made, but if she can be good
and charming her heritage and
posterity can ask absolutely moth
ing better"
In a few words Miss Daskam
has demonstrated the folly of the
movement for wOman's suffrage.
With or without the franchise
the woman who is good and
exercises more power
than the poor man with his bal
lot. She is greater factor in
the destinies of the world
than if she had hundred bal
lots. Every married man knows
that and every bachelor ought to
know it. A Roman consul once
said that a woman ruled the world
and being asked to explain how
it was, answered.: Rome is the
of the world; am the
ruler of Rome, and am I not gov
erned by my wife,"
Man may think that with the
suffrage he is running the gov
but he is not infre-
the unconscious agent of
some fair one who holds and
yields the sceptre of authority
That he has been we'll directed
the progress of the world shows.
The old Roman, whose words we
nave quoted, understood it all.
Miss Daskam understands it,
md the rebuke she so cleverly
to her too am bilious
sisters was eminently just.
Since the earliest times that we
Know of, Eve has had her say
whether in the garden of Eden
fruits, in the adjust
nent of domestic affairs, or in the
Of modern politics
he has been the power behind
he throne whose word is law and
whose decree is irrevocable
What in the dickens she wants
o do with the ballot is beyond
ur ken. Why bother about the
ote, when she controls the vo-
err?

VIGOROUS PROTEST FILED.
Rock Island Objects to Being Exclud-
ed From Meetings..

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Chicago. June 30.-A vigorous protest was
filed with the chairman of the Western Pas
senSer Association to-day by the Rock
Island against what It regards as its exclu
sion from the meeting of the Interchangea-
BILE Mileage Bureau lines. held yesterday to
discuss the discontinuance of the credential
form of interchangeable mileage.
The protest was entered in connection
with the Rock Islands vote on a PROPOSE
ton submitted for the purpose of giving
effect to the conclusions of yesterdays
meeting.
The proposition provides for the absolute
dscontinuance of the -thousand-mile
stub ticket, which Is now on sale by in
dvidual roads alongside the credental form,
but is not good for INTERCHANGEABLE mileage
One noticeable change in the proposition as
now submitted is that it provides for the
optional continuance of the sale of the ere
Dental form alongside the proposed new
form.
The Rock Island voted against the adop-
ton of the revised proposition. and its vote
insures its defeat for the moment. The
final outcome is likely to be an all-round
rate war.
