And is there then a doubt that God exists,
a being glorious and fair to see?
Can ony who gazes on the the fair earth's face
Behold and say, Here is a mystery?'
Is it a riddle like that famed of old
Which Samson to the wond ring peasants gave?
Or is it written on all natures crest,
The freeman'S yiSage and the seville slave?
Is there an empty void, which seers of old
And modern times have peopled with a God?
Or must we say the infinite is not.
That we are kinsman to the lowly clodj
Does space eer end? Why hesitate you there
Fer giving anwer? Know we then, the flame
That kindles doubt in mind of infdel
Is this: All things ON earth have end the same.
And we with our poor, little finite minds.
Since man began, have never seen the thing
Ihat END had not. nor could VIC e'er conceive
That which did not a final ending bring?
Yea, even time is measured by the end
OF day or year, at most a little span;
And history has shown Us yet no end
While births and deaths mark ends OF living man
or thing that endeth not no heritage
Has come to us thru centuries of life.
Our minds have grappled with but finite things,
Our bodies too have fought a finite strife.
And yet for centuries, yea, aeonS past
Has mankind rudely striven to embra ;e
The infinite, and like the child afraid
Has given his straying thots, a form and face.
An now the son from sire the heritage
OF image, half conceived, and diff'ring oft
Receives, endows it with strange attributes
And as all seeing, stations it aloft.

editor INDUCED himself in maund-
cring over the dispersion OF the
populist party. According to
this wise one Il large number OF
the populists went back into the
republican party and we're glad
to get back; another large con.
tingent had gone to the socialist
party which would be hereafter
the second party in the state; and,
finally, such a sorry little rem
nant that he would have us be-
lieve it looked much smaller than
thirty cents, went into the dem
ocratic party. This is not the
honest belief of the editorial
writer above quoted. Any one
well enough informed TO be
employed to write editorial mat
ter for that enterprising Sioux
Falls paper, knows such a state
ment is a rank falsehood. 1t is
uttered for q deceptive purpose
only. The concerted effort of
republican papers generally is to
deceive and discourage those who
abhor the policy of the Repub-
lican party from getting together
and taking united political action
which would mean disaster to the
party in power.
They have passed an election
law in this state which does
violence to the fundamental right
of suffrage which is inherent in
every citizen of the state. The
right of a voter to vote for
whomsoever he pleases and have
the vote counted is beyond ques-
ton. They nave abridged that
right and will pay the penalty.
They legislated to prevent
lpopulists from voting for dem
ocrats and the populists who we're
populists from conviction have
gone into the democratic party.
Men who affect to be amused at
this statement have much to learn
about the real political situation
in this state. When another
campaign opens and county con
ventions begin to assemble
throughout the state nany people
will get their eyes open. S icl
conventions as were never before
seen to come together in this safe
in response to a democratic cali
will assemble by another summer,
And they will come animated BY
a spirit that political jqbhers
fondly hoped was dead. Anc
perhaps not the least surprised
.EaEr-Fa= U-EH
will be the members Of the old
fashioned skeleton democratic
party in the state.

OUESTIONINGS


And is it so that this strange fancy is
or aid and comfort to the living man?
Dos't give him pleasure in this life or raise
From burdcned shoulders, troubles hateful ban?
Can images, which we in mind conceive
Give food and drink to the expiring Sheik,
Far on the desert lost, or smooth his path
When hunger's fingers life's weak letters break?
Too often, shouting duty to his God
Does man forget that love and only love
Is the true power tnat deity %snpplants
Like taloned hawk above the tender dove.
Yea, love is chief, the very s%hrieking crags
The whispering leaf, the tender petaled flour
The mated birds, the human passion wrot
o by mans reason, answer for it's power.
How can you mortal turn from suffering man,
Or other make to suffer at your will?
Then turn to Deity and patter prayers
To keep the drugged and injured conscience still?
How can you sit in gi:ded halls of state
And cast the dice, which make a Thousand die?
Then beg forgiveness from a misty form
Or supplicate for mercy from the sky?
How can You, greedy miSer, paw the gold
From humble purses, needing not the cries
Ofstarving women, and then kneeling down,
worship the gain which greets your lustful eyes?
Let US acknowledge love, the onesole power
Which is creation wide, and can be used
To serve one end alone, the just and gosd,
To succor men, the %suffring, the abused.
In US godhood exists to yield the power
To the extent that nature has endowed:
Forgotten be the tawdry shame of kings,
Vanished for ayethc wioNllllItl I'll, proud t
Charles Greed.

Harvest Time at Home.

Somehow. when business has lull
about this time OF year.
My thoughts take their vacation back
among the scenes once dear
stray about the harvest fields whore
long and long ago
watched the cereal ocean In It's golden
rpples flow,
While now and then, upon some blade
tired reaper bore,
The sunbeams flashed and then went out
like thoughts recalled no more.
How pleasant then the journey home
along the country road,
Where larkspur blooms beside the fence
like knots Of lovers glowed--
Now listening TO the whippoorwill be-
yond darkllng field.
Or tarrying whore the berries tempt-a
shower of wine concealed:
And long before we reached the gate to
hear the watch dogs bark.
And see the distant windows CLEAN like
blossoms Of the dark.
1t seemed so long since those old years
80 long, indeed. that /
Now wonder that a time could be with
out n sob or sigh,
And yet, enough do | recall TO vow that
IN the end
when the no more and ever more In
deaths twilight shall blend
II would suffice to know that life beyond
the gathering gloHm
Would really prove as care free as
the harvest time at home.

Conservatism is believed to be the
distinguishing characteristic of Eng.
llshmen. A young man Of Bermuda,
of English descent, now residing in
New York city, shows that the belief
is wellfounded. He imports his collars
from st. Georges Town, on the island
where he was born, not because he
has any prejudice against American
made goods, nor because he can't get
a collar to suit his needs in one Of the
thousand or more shops where collars
are sold. but simply that he is used to
the sort that he imports. ITS the
kind I've always had y know" he

for cOnjecturing that Christianity
might have reached Pompeii. In the
Acts Of the Apostles II is related that
when st. Paul was on his way to
Rome In consequence Of his appeal
to Caesar, he landed at Puteoli, the
modern Pozzuoli, where he was met
by Christians, brethren" who desired
him to tarry with them some days.
the distance between Pozzuoll and
Pompel is about thirty miles. 1t Is
not unreasonable, therefore, to ex'
pect that, II there were Christians In
Pozzuoli, when st. Paul landed at IT,
there might well be Christians in
Pompeii during the twenty years that
elapsed between that date and the de-
struction of It In A. d. 49, Christian
ity made rapid strides, and It is quite
natural to think Il reached Pompeii,
thirty miles from POzZuoli, within the
space of twenty years.
The most interesting, and, indeed,
the most remarkable of discoveries
more or less associated with this sub.
ject, was that made In June. 1882,

Thu scene" wrote Mr.. E. Neville
Rolfe, the British consul at Naples,

its discovery known to the English
speaking world, "the scene is laid
upon a terrace in front Of a house

shaded with a white awning. On a

feet high, sits the king, holding a

The drawing is poor, but the colors
are particularly bright, and the preser-
walton is excellent"
How such a subject came to be rep
resented here is a puzzle. Italian
archaeologists, said a writer, are gen.
orally inclined to think that the bibli.
cal narrative had penetrated into Pom.

In Roman city, must have possessed
the Septuagint translation Of the 81.

OF the other people of Pompei we
