mained-her half-kissing each one as
she laid it down. Then, with smile
on her face she went back to the
other grave, and carefully bestowed
the treasures there.
In quite a different part of the city
another girl waited the opportunity to
visit her sacred spot. Mary Brown
could not choose her time Not until
four children were washed and comb
ed, the breakfast and the dishes out
of the way, was she at liberty to go.
Mary Brown had experienced various
phases of fortune or misfortune in
seven short months-months which
were long to her. Now she worked
for her board in this poor family, and
had hardly decent clothes to her back.
How she wished for money; not to
spend on herself, but that she might
buy a few flowers for mothers grave.
The grave seemed to be the only thing
she possessed. And then-heaven had
indeed been kind for one! The day
before, as a florists wagon was taking
plants to some church, lily broke off
and fell in the dirt. Eagerly she ran
out to pick it up, and the driver called
back, You can have it. 'Tain't no good
now"
No good! 1t was her hearts desire!
Daintily she washed and revived it.,
till it bloomed pure and perfect again.
At length, the morning work done
up, she was free to take her lily, her
fr,ih he o1,
it, in the newspaper wrapping.
But what was this! AS her feet
neared their destination, she could see
her grave glowing with beauty. Who
could have done it? 1t was like a pov.
erty-bred girl who had been forced to
count pennies, to count the roses now.
Yes, there were eighteen costly bios
SONS. Somebody had made a mistake
or else somebody had been the best
that ever was! But mother should
have her own lily. She, too, kissed her
flower, and laid it with unconscious
art right in the center, amidst the sur
rounding beauties.
ut will be nearest her heart" she
thought, and there it shone like a
white star.
After little, she wandered about
1T was so seldom she had an outing,
and thus she came upon the Wetmore
lot, with its monument of gray stone.
Then-then she saw almost the coun.
terpart Of her own grave! The same
roses, no others like them on any other
grave. Again she counted, and there
were just eighteen!-Pittsburg OBJ.

A Word to BOYS.

You are made to be kind, boys, gen.
erous, magnanimous.
If there is a boy in school who has
a clubfoot, don't let him know you
ever saw it.
If there is a poor boy with raggeu
clothes, don't talk about rags in his
hearing.
If there is a lame boy, assign him
some part in the game that doesn't re-
quire running.
If there is a hungry one, give him
part of your dinner.
If there is a dull one, help him learn
his lesson.
If there is a bright one, be not en-
vious of him; for if one boy is proud
of his talents and another is envious
of them, there are two great wrongs
and no more talent than before.
If a larger boy or stronger boy has
injured you and is sorry for it, forgive
him. All the school will show by their
countenances how much better it Is
than to have great fuss.-Horace
Mann. - it@4a

the will or pleasure of the political
power within the limits of Justice.
There have been for several years
strong and even successful movements
throughout nearly all the states of the
Union to subject the judges imme-
diately under the influence of public
opinion; and the judges themselves,
as they lose their Independent posi-
ton, are beginning to lose sight of
their high and solemn functions, and
to regard it as their duty simply to
give effect to public sentiment, which
is, practically, the popular opinion,
prejudice, or caprice of the time and
place. 1t was avowedly to render the
judges Immediately responsible to
popular opinion, that the radicals, who
have inflicted so many irreparable
evils upon our American community,
demanded and have introduced into
most of the states the constitutional
clauses, which render the judges cleo
tive by popular suffrage, elective for a
brief term of years, and re-eligible.
These changes destroy the independ-
ence of the judiciary, and reintroduce
the terrible evil from which our Eng
fish ancestors struggled so hard to
free themselves and which was one
of the causes of the American revolu-
ton itself-that of making the judges
dependent on the good will of the SOW
ereign, and the mere instruments of
his pleasure. They have worked an al
most entire revolution in the judic-
larry, and prepared our republic to be-
come popular or democratic absolut-
ism, in which the people, that is,
party, that is, again, the demagogues,
govern, without any legal or practical
restraint on their irresponsible will
''The chief justice of the United
States" remarked Winslow, though
bred in a good school, seems to have
been led to adopt the maxims Of the
Roman, rather than of the English
law; and has sought rather to give eff
feet to the will of the political power,
than to strengthen the defenses of in
dividual rights. In deserving the old
Federal party, he seems to have gone
over to political absolutism, the real
character of which is concealed from
his vision, because it presents itself 70
him under the popular name of democ-
racy. If we adopt the principle of the
radical democracy, and pronounce the
political power absolute, no fault can
I be found with the opinion of the chief
justice in the bred Scott case, save so
far as it is founded on the misappre-
hension of the facts in the case. But
that principle, which 1 believe to be
the real, pure democratic principle,
and, therefore, tie reason why cannot
be democrat, is the principle of alb
solutism, of Caesarism, just as much
as it would be if the political power
was vested in one man, instead of be-
ing, as with us, vested in the people
or the convention. 1t makes the arbi
trary will of the people supreme, and
therefore, right and wrong, conven.
tional. With us the people are the
state, and this doctrine makes the
state absolute, free to do whatever ii
pleases. 1t makes the popular will
which in practice is simply popular
opinion, the supreme law of the land
with no higher law to which that will
is itself bound to conform"

A royal welcome, little niece from
Ogden! Aunt Busy is glad to see that
the good influence of the Ogden neph-
ews is extending to the nieces. Yes.
Aunt Busy is pleased over her little
Clam Diggers." She was sure that
their nice letters would interest all
the children.
What edifying news you send about
so many receiving Holy Communion at
Easter! Surely, dear Father Cushna-
han is doing duty nobly for his de-
voted congregation. Aunt Busy heard
about how beautifully the church was
decorated. All success to the Mission.
Be sure to write often to Aunt Busy.
She will not forget the dear little
niece with the pretty name.
P. S.-Does the dear niece really be-
lieve that fat, funny old Aunt Busy is
80 years old, or is she only joking?

A Northern Mans View,
lseotland Neck commonwealth.l

Scotland Neck Commonwealth
A Northern man, a native Of Ohio. was
interviewed by The Commonwealth some
days ago concerning his opinion Of the
Southern people and especially their at
titude toward the coIored race The
Ohio man has lived in the South now
two years, he says, and he sees all re-
lations in a very different light now.
When he first came South to live he
thought the colored race was greatly
abused. He had heard the many patent
ed stories told throughout the North
about the cruelies practiced upon the
colored race by the people Of the South
until he thought of the Southern people
perhaps only as mereiless task masters
driving the colored race as If they were
slaves or beasts. He says that all those
exaggerated opinions have been changed
by observations and by mingling with
the people He really thinks that the
colored people receive better treatment
in the South than they would receive
in the North il they lived there in large
numbers as they do in the South Like
most men from the North who give the
subject any careful thought he believes
that the people of the South know bet
ter what to do with the Grace problem,
as It is called, than the people OF the
North who have seen little Of the negro
and have had no relations with him
whatever. As to the climate here. our
friend from Ohio said 1t is simply ideal
and he could not be induied reasonably
to leave this balmy Southland.

increased in price. It will be unwise to
put heavy tax on lands, for with de-
cline in the price of products and Of per-
sonal property, which is listed each year,
the farmer will be compelled to bear the
burden and to pay NOR taxes than he Is
able to pay.
Our people are deeply concerned over
the question OF taxation. 1t Is time To-
bacco and cotton have been selling we'll,
but this is no guide to the future. The
low prices from 1892 for some years,
would indicate that we will see lower
prices. One year ago the tobacco farmers
were in high spirits. The tobacco crops
for some years were decreasing in acre
age and number OF pounds raised The
farmers made a special effort, and en-
pended large sums of money in fertilizer
and labor, and exerted themselves to
raise a good crop in 1902. and succeeded.
The heavy decline in the price OF to-
baeco, especially when the consumption
of it had so greatly increased the world
over, was sore disappointment to the
tobacco growers.
Whereas. some sections received high
prices for their tobacco, other parts OF
the country did not sell their crops for
the advanced prices.
The general conditions that confront
the farmers today imperatively demand
that they be organized for the protection
of their interests, the promotion of their
general welfare the social and educa-
tional advancement of them and of their
children and securing to them a Just re-
Enumeration for their toll.
The purposes of this organization should
be to extend mutual help and protection
to the members: to aid them in selling
their products at fair and reasonable
profit; to gather and disseminate facts
and statistics concerning the area, condi-
tion and prices of crops and all other
matters affecting their interests; to es-
tablish a non-partisan agricultural news
paper. to encourage or operate farmers
factories; to create a business agency fol
the sale and exchange OF the products of
the farm and other products and articles
of merchandise of use in or connected
with farming operations; to encourage,
promote or establish mutual insurance
companies for the insurance of farm
property; and benevolent and fraternal
insurance for the benefit of the families
of members; to encourage the establish
ment of good roads, rural free delivery
mail routes and country telephones; to
stimulate education and encourage the cs-
Enlistment of rural Libraries, and gener-
ally to do all such things as will build
up an intelligent, self-respeetlng, self
sustaining agricultural population, and to
assist in the social, mental and moral
elevation OF the agricultural communi-
ties.
Such an organization is needed, and
will be formed Not in antagonism to
other organizations having like purposes,
but in addition to such organizations.
