A Pioneer Poem.

The following original poem was
read by Captain A. j. Wadlia at the
pioneers banquet last Saturday and
is published by request Of some who
were present:
Greeisy.
o Greeley, proud Greeley. you are dandy;
Sweet Greeley, now n city without files;
We knew YOU when your saints hISt lunoeu
In the spring OF 1870 ON pile OF ties.
The very first cactus the "tenderfoot" struck ,
Was likely to send them etiectualiy to grass
II they didn't land in = cactus bed it was iuck-
Some cuss words were heard not said FOR
"gass,"
So We bunked in the old Du Comfort hotel
Our turr to cook on the ono stove tried us;
We drank bumpers from the old Colony We'll.
While the General stood by winkinE anu gay'd
We studied this dry, brown and treeless land,
And wondered if We hadn't been badly sold;
Murmurs loud and deep were heard on every hand
That shares" had drawn dioss for our gold.
And some there were that got up and busted
Back to the tesh-potS they left IN the East,
But there was crowd so eHectualiy 'ousteu
That they had to take their CROW FOR "A feast.
So they set to work with courage true and grand
10 dig up the cactus, dig di,ches and things
To build them homes in n socallsd desert land
To fight pixies, Texas steers and their kings.
And then hosts of pUtato-bugs and locusts came
To eat a mans ho,e and turn his hair gray;
Every green thing IN sight was their game
And il was .eatu-bat.le to see winch was 10
stay.
But now we are Just rioting in honey and milk,
Alfalfa and spuds have boosted our veal
While our wives dress out IN velvet and silk
Aud our daughters ride the festive wheel.
All honor to those who stayed by their homes,
Aud made the first temperance town in our
land.
Their reward will lie in the years TO come
In the City Beautiful their genius planned
= General Cameron was one of the committee
to locate .the Union Colony-had a weak eye
that was always wiukinc, weeping and laughing.
= For a certain amount of cash shares were
given by Union Colony.

The "Big Tenth.

Carroll Herald: We ohject,to the
term "big" as applied to the eleventh
congressional district. Tat term be-
longs to the tenth district. 1t is prop
er to say the 'big tenth" but the "big"
eleventh is not correct, scientifically,
philologically or any other way. The
tenth district has fourteen counties,
and the eleven has only Thirteen. We
have more people than they have,
more republ cans more land, more
railroads, more hogs and cattle, more
postmasters, more everything of ole,
two or three dimensions than they have
In the eleventh district. OF course
they have some good things up there.
but they mustn't thlrk that CIV are as
good or as big as the things tina,
exist in the tenth district Why, even
Fl. Dodge and all that dwel therein
are in the BIG Tenth:

Joint Amiction.

When the Halliday twins were ba.
bies their mother always referred to
them collectively. This was natural
enough, for they shared everything,
from their baby carriage to chicken
pox.
As they grew little older, however,
there were slight differences between
Elnora and Eudora, but Mrs. Halliday
took no account of them. When they
had reached the age Of seven, she still
referred to them in a way which struck
casual listeners as amusing.
Where are Elnora and Eudora p
asked cousin. who had come to spend
the afternoon.
'The twins have gone with their IA
Their to have one Of their teeth out"
said Mrs. Halliday calmly. = Youths

Had Time to Rest.

Mr.. Choate, ,he ambassador of the
United States at London, tells story
of a sculling match that took place be-
tween an Englishman, a student of Ok
ford, and an Irishman, a student of
Cambridge. The Briton won handily.
At no time was he in danger of defeat.
Moreover, in spirit of fun and bravo
do, he had stopped two or three times
in his course and had bade the Irish
man in the rear Ito hurry up"
After the race the Irishman came in
for good deal of chatf, in view of the
overwhelming defeat he had suffered
But he merely shrugged his shoulders

long rests that he took l could have
beaten him easily" Webster City

THE DOW CITY FAILURE.

1t is even at this time too early to
know all the causes that lead up to the
disastrous failures.of the Green busi-
ness interests at Dow City. The effects
will be felt in many homes for many
months, even though the final settle-
ment be as favorable as Mr.. Green
predicts. 1t will mean at the very
least, temporary embarrassment. en-
forced economy and perhaps actual
privation for some of the depositors.
and for these and for Mr.. Green and
his family and associates we have gen.
uine sympathy. That the failure
caused as little uneasiness and unset
element of credit as it did is The high
est possible proof of the solidity of the
other banks of the county and the gen.
eral confidence in them The failure
was as far rs we know, on account of
special causes, not because of general
panic conditions or hard times ami for
this reason the other financial institu-
tions ofthe county were injured in only
comparatively trivial amounts and their
credit and standing we're injured not at
all.
1t is certainly tribute to the gen.
eral esteem in which Mr.. Green is
held that there are at this time so few
charges of dishonesty of any kind. A
man who has lost few hundred dollars
or more in bank failure is usually in
about as good humor as the man who
has missed the last three meals, and he
is not to be taken TOO severely to task
1t he says things, but in this 1nstacce
we have heard otring but xpressions
of regret for the unfortunate series OF
circumstances that made the assign
ment necessary.
!. Mr.. Green has done much for Dow
City and for the p, ople of western
Crawford, although the injury done by
the failure will possibly outweigh them.
/ We shall not try to point any morals
or adorn my TILES, but we can but think
that the legislature of Iowa has been
greatly in error in not providing for
the examination of private banks.
There re many private banks just
as strong financially as any state or
national bank. Such institutions
would not suffer from examinations and
publicity. NJ tional and state banks
are not immune, but their failures are
seldom so severe or complete as those
OF private banks. We fail to see how
any bank would be done an injury by
examination and we believe that on the
contrary they would be advan,a aged by
the additional confidence such exami-
nation would give. In the history OF
this county there has been but one
BANK failure that occasioned any con-
siderable loss to depositors. This is
a record to be proud of. There is NO
danger that any other bank in this
vicinity will be, or are affected. and
there is no occasion for anything but
absolute confidence in the banks and
farms and fields and business men OF
old Crawford.

THE MAJESTY OF THE LAW.

A wonderful thing happened this
week. A shameful ard disgraceful
thing. A piliiul thine. ~ thing re-
nect'ng ut the same time both dishouor
and credit to America Institutions.
A United States Senator stood before
the LAR of Justice. tried and convicted.
to receive sentence,
The crime was that of selling the in
duence of his high position. the sent
ence carried with it that never again
should he hold any position of honor,
trust or eyuolument under the govern
ment of the United States.
The additional sentence. six months
in jail, a $500 fine, carried little added
punishment 1t could not.
The change from the marble halls of
the senate chamber to the steel walls
OF the cell will not be SO great to that
man as mental fall.
1t was indeed u pitiful. disnonor-
able, a disgraceful sight, but it demon
strated the solidity of the republic. the
supremacy of law over power and pride
and place and gave the lie to the dema-
gogic cry thas justice is only for the
poor and humble.
DThe naughty senator of the republic
standing before the bar of the republic
receiving his sentence with bowed
head is a picture to BE- remembered
to the honor OF the law which knows nc
high, nor low and to the terror of the
evil doer no matter how exalted his
station
