At Dusk.
Earth mother dear, turn, at last
A homesick child to thee!
The twilight glow Is fading fast,
And soon I shall be free
To seek the dwelling. dim and vast,
Where thou awaitest me.
I am SO weary mother deari-
Thy child, Of dual race.
Who gazing past the starbeams clear,
Sought the Undying's face!
Now but ask to know thee near.
To feel thy large embrace!
Tranquil to lie against thy breast
Deep source of voiceless springs,
Where hearts are healed, and wounds are
dressed.
And naught or sobs or sings:
Against thy breast to lie at rest
A life that folds its wings
Sometime I fmay-for who can tellf"
Awake, no longer tired.
And see the fields of asphodel.
The dreamed-of, the desired,
And find the heights where He doth
dwell,
To whom my heart aspiredi
And then-but peace awaiteth me
Thy peace: feel It near.
The hush the voiceless mystery.
The languor without fear!
Enfold me-close; / want but thee!-
But thee, Earth-mother dear!

THE "oIL SINGER" MACHINE.

More than half Of my life ago the
cashier OF bank tapped on the win.
dow as | was passing and motioned
me in. He was a stakeholder in
factory and offered me a place l had
been seeking. That was Thursday
afternoon and the last day of high
school for me. The next morning at
seven o'clock I stood by big chuck
as one OF seventy workers. My cloth
ing was not suitable for any machine
and the chuck machine was the worst
one on clothing. The boys smiled and
predicted change in my appearance
very soon. My work was to knurl the
head OF the long screw which moves
the jaw of monkey wrench. In
those days the chuck had to be stop
ped and started for each screw; as
it started up the oil began to fly and
the faster the chuck revolved the
greater the penetrating. power Of the
oil when 1t hit me. In order to do the
work | had to get in the way Of the
oil; did the work but traced the oil
from my clothing to the chuck and
the SCTeW WHICH CdHle 10 Tuo iOdueu
with it. The oil was secured in the
thread cutting machine where
steady stream ran on the die; some
would have seen all this at FIRST
glance without thinking, but did
not; | even studied the bearings as
the source of the trouble, before fnd-
ing 1t on the screws. When did find
the place of the trouble l put bunch
of waste there and laid the screws on
1t before putting them in the chuck;
the waste drew the oil of and the
machine lost its name. The machine
lost it's name because ! was dissatis-
fed with conditions. began tracing
the trouble and found the remedy.
When a former workman at that
chuck visited the factory and asked
where oil had gone to, on being told
the plan he opened his eyes and said
nothing. He may have been thinking
about the amount of oil he had taken
home on his clothing There are both
big and little opportunities in every
shop and factory for better methods
and originality, mutually useful to en-
ployer and employe.

KNOW NO SHAME.

If any republican or republican organ
in this fair land has ever paid tribute
of any kind to Hon. William j. Bryan,
we have yet to hear of it. There may
be such cases but they are SO rare that
they have never shown on the surface.
Instead, they have never passed up an
opportunity to hurl ridicule at the great
leader and expounder of the is to idea.
Perhaps they have resorted to ridicule
because they lacked arguments and
perhaps their course was due to some
other reason, but it is a fact that ridicule
and Misrepresentation had much to do
with the two defeats that were given to
Mr.. Bryan.
In glowing comparison to the repub-
lican plan of action Mr.. Bryan has re-
fused to resort to the use of ridicule in
speaking OF the men who opposed him
for presidency on the republican ticket.
He has even done hstter than that. He
hasrpaid . tribute to the present incum-
bent Of the Office for which Mr.. Bryan

The question is often asked: What
does it cost to run our national govern
ment? This year the expenditure will be
about s65O, OOOyO 600, including s132, GOO, 600
for postal service, which is now nearly
self sustaining. The revenues will
amount to about 1894 100000, being a
surplus Of s43,0O,0D. Last years sur
plus was s91, O0O,O 600, of which some &C.,
10000 were used in the redemption of
government bonds. The largest item in
so4s national expenditures is the pension
account, which now amounts TO- l36, OOO,-
COO annually, or nearly 100000 day.

battled so bravcly two times in success
sion. In a conversation with an old
time friend of Iowa City, Mr.. Bryan is
quoted as follows:
"No other man in the republican party
equals Roosevelt in the esteem of the
common people and especially in the
west. None equals Roosevelt in his
power to command the respect of all ma
lions and to WELD an influence on the
world at large"
If this statement by Mr.. Bryan does
not make thousands of republicans and
republican editors ashamed of the
manner in which they have ridiculed
and misrepresented Mr. Bryan, then it
will merely he because they do not know
what it is to be ashamed: that they have
lost all sense of shame and just treat
ment of an honorable foe.

WHAT IS "GRAFT?"

The word ''graft' has been so frequent
ly employed of late that it has come to
have technical meaning. 1t is used to
describe the illegitimate profit which
corrupt public servant makes out of his
office. The most common form Of graft
is in the form of rebate on contracts
made by the official for the public. The
postoffice NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. thatseveral
employees were interested in contracts
made in their departments. OF course,
it is plain, bare-faced stealing, for the
official acts for the people as whole
and to pay high price for supplies with
the understanding that part of the
price will be returned to him personally
is only an indirect method of converting
government money to his own use. All
purchasing agents are tempted to misuse
their positions and public opinion ought
to be such as to restrain and strengthen
those who hold such positions of trust.
Even school boards sometimes become
venal and sell their decisions to the book
company that offers the largest cash
bonus to tho board. What sad COM
mentary on public morals to say that
men especially selected to supervise the
instruction of the young should become
purchaseable. In the cities another
form of graft is to be found in the sell
ing of immunity. Saloonkeepers, gamb
lers and keepers of houses of i'll fame,
are sometimes allowed to violate the law,
provided stipulated sum is paid, to
officers whose duty it is to enforce the
law. This form of crime should be made
so odious that every party organization
would, for its own protection. unrelent-
ingly punish its own members when
found guilty of trafficking in police
authority, but back of all this misuse
of official power stands the CONNER
cialism which the sordid: greedy COM
mercialism which is stimulating the love
of money and condoning the offenses
against law and good morals. The only
permanent remedy is to be found in
purifying public thought and raising the
ideals of the people.
