Gratis, but the actual accomplish
ment Of the promise is a cause of

gates the effect will be ratification
Of what q majority Ofthe democrats
have already done, and the conven-
tons nomination of the prosecutor
will be only the official form Of
what has already been expressed.
If the democrats of the sixteen
counties in which primaries were
were held last week felt any diSap-
pointment at the inactivity of Mr..
Folks oppOncnts-before they had
a chance to vote-they can have
the comforting reflection that the
unanim1ty OF their instructions has
destroyed whatever hope the ma
chimes candidates had of heading a
bolt in the convention. Folk will
have n more solidified county de
mocracy for his. support III 'Ite eA@c-
t;on than arsv former candidate for
&c same office IN the past sixteen
years. This harmony in the rural
districts will more than make
up for the machine detection

The Hen i'm Poetry.

We have read OF Maud on summer
day who raked, barefooted, the new
mown hay; we have read OF the maid in
the early morn, who milkcd the COW with
the crumpled horn; and we've read of the
lays of the rustling corn, of flowers, of
spring; but of all the lays OF tongue or
pen, there is naught like the lay of the
Missouri hen. Long, long before Maud
raKeu Une nay. the Missouri hen has be-
gun to lay, and ere the milkmaid has
stirred leg the hen is up and dropped an
egg; the corn must rustic and flowers
spring, to hold your own with the barn
yard ring. If Maud needs hat or gown,
she doesn't hustle her hay to town; she
goes to the store and obtains her suit with
basketful of fresh hen fruit; if the
milkmaid's beau makes a Sunday call
she doesn't feed him with milk at all, but
works up eggs in a custard pie, and stuffs
on chicken fry; and when the old man
wants horn, does he take to the drug
gist load of corn? Not much! He simply
| robs a nest and to town he goes-you
know the rest. He fingers there and
talks perchance of true reform and cor
rect finance, while his poor wife stays at
home and scowls, but is kept from want
by the selfsame fowls; for while her
husband fingers there, she watches the
cackling hen with care, and gathers the
eggs, and eggs she'll hide till she gets
enough to stem the tide. Throw up your
hats and make Rome howl for the per-
severing barnyard fowl; wheat may be
king but it is plain to be seen that the
barnyard hen is the farmers queen
Tripoh Leader.
