SOME THANKFUL SENTIMENTS.

reckon We're feelin thankful
reckon we ought to be,
Fer the good we've had to the Pres
ent-fer the future we can't see;
Fer things that we call our blessings
fer the sorrows an the sighs;
But fer all the preachin' an prayin',
there's mist there. round the
eyes!
Yes, | reckon were feelin' thankful
fer the life an light we know
Fer the little love that's left us. an
the love that's under the snow;
Fer the hope the last will greet us
somewhere on a golden shore.
But in lonesome winter shadows we
sigh fer it more an more!
Some of us are divided-some have
drifted away:
An the stars are not SO beautiful
there's less light in the day!
There's a roof that gives US shelter-a
table with plenty spread,
But the vacant chairs bring heartache
when we break our daily bread
But I reckon we're feelin' thankful, on
the hills-in the fiowerless dells,
For the little light that's left us-for
the music of the bells;
An maybe we'll all see clearer when
the clouds are swept away,
An the weary winter is no more, an
We reach eternal May.

 Dear Judge: I wish to express my appreciation of your most excellent ad- dress in accepting the democratic nom- nation It was more comprehensive, stronger and deeper, and presented in clearer light the most important prin- ciples of our government than any speech of state paper produced in many years.

Wishing you every success, remain, very truly yours,
