Life and Love.

Most men know love hut as a p,rt OF life;
They hide It in some corner OF the breast
Even from themselves; and only when
they rest
In the brief pause of that earthly strife
Wherewith our world might else be not so
rife,
They draw It forth Gas one draws forth

To soothe some ardent, klss-exacting
boy),
And hold II up to mother. child or wife.
An me! why may not life and love be
one?
Why walk we thus alone. when at our
side
Love. like a visible god. might be our
guide?
How would the marts grow noble, and
the street,
Worn like dungeon floor. with weary
feet
Seem then a golden courtway OF the sun.

Tne Tammany Times, the organ OF
that great organization has opened
WA On Col, W. F. Sheehan, who was
Cua rmau Of the Democratic National
campaign committee blaming him
with 'reachery and causing the de-
f-a' II Parker an dauis. The average
voter views the Tiger with suspicion
and will regard this attack on SFee-
han as the same old fight OF the
= ,nmny organization against the
State leaders. One thing seems GER
tain and that is that the result was SC
decisive that no one mans influence
o. his loyalty or disloyalty could have
caused the horrible landslide. The
facs remains that New York city gave
Parker less than 40, 900 majority when
tLe Republicans were ready to concede
100. 900 before the election. I slooks
as if there was some hing wrong with
Tammany.

The election is over and everybody
can again settle down to business.
The Republicans have achieved an
overwh Ginning victory. The admin
istra ton of Theodore Roosevelt has
been approved and Republicans poll
cies endorsed By the American people
The will OF the majority governs and
there is more who will accept results
more cheeriully than the loyal Dem
ocrats throughout the Union who
voted for Alton B. Parker. Roosevelt S
personality figured very much in the
result He is spec tacular figure IN
the events of this day and generation
He is regarded by many as best fitted
to direct the affairs of the republic IL
the new sphere OF world power. He
is dominating force and he will rule
the Republican party not less auto
cratically than he will the country.
His endorsement by the electorate by
such large majority makes him su.
preme, both in his party and in the
republic.

The STANDARD Oil Company oppos-
ed tax reform because the tax reform
rs recommended by the original tax
commission required the octopus to
paw its just share of taxes. Mr.. Daw-
son and his crew insisted that their

the State but when the test came GU
the olauuard Oil Company supported
Mr.. Dawson and the Republican
ticket, which of course means that
tue Dawson was favorable to the trust
as against the property holders Of the
