JIr1. BLUDSO

The death of John Hay, America $ gaeatest diplomat and the greates Secre- tary of State since the war, calls to mind the many sided greatness of the eminent American. As poet, scholar, author, journalist, orator and diplomat he was equally eminent. 4 typical, whoe-souled genius John Hay was at home in all fields. Herewith we pre- sent his celebrated poem, portraying steamboat life and character on this Mississippi River. Our youth was spent amid such surroundings and "Jim Bludso" is one of our favorite poems.
 Wall, no, I can't tell whar he lives, Becase he don't live. you see; Leastways, he's got out of the habit Of livin like you and me. Whar have you been for the last three
 year,
 That you haven't heard folks tell How Jimmy Bludso passed in his checks Tie night of the Prairie Belle? He weren' t no saimt-them engineers Is all pretty much alike One wife in Natchez-under-th he Hill And another one here, in Pike: 4 keerIess man iii his talk was Jim, And an awkward man in a row, But he never funked, and he never
 lied,-
 ! reckon he never knowed how. And this was all the religion lie had To treat his engine well; Never be passed on the river;
 Tc mind the pilots bell; And if ever the Prairie Belle took fire 4 thousand times he swore He'd hold her nozzle agin the bank Till the last soul got ashore. All boats has their day on the
 NissIssip,
 And her day come at last,- The Movaster was better boat, But the Belle, she wouldn't be passed And so she come tearin' along that
 night
 The oldest craft on the line With a nigger squat on her safetyvalve, And her furnace crammed, rosin and
 pine.
 The fire bust out as she clared the bar, And burnt whole in the night, And quick as fash she turned, and
 made
 For that willer-bank on the right. There was Iunnim' and cursin, but Jim
 yelled out
 Over all the internal roar, "I'll hold her nozzle agin the bank Till the last goloot's ashore". Through the hot, black breath of the
 burnin' boat
 Jim BIuGsos voice was heard, And they all had trust in his cussedness And know'd he would keep his word, And, sure's you're born they all got off Afore the smOkestacks ieIl,- And BludsO's ghost went up alone In the smoke of the Prairie Belle. He weren't no saint-but at judgement I'd run my chance with Jim, 'Longside of some pious gentleman That wouldn't shook hands with him. He seen his duty, dead-sure thing And went for it thar and then; And Christ ain't a-goin' to be too hard On man that died for men.

ANOTHER TRUST OUTRAGE.

The Refrigerator Car Trust, alias Armour
d Co., alias the Beef Trust, has shown Its
power by refusing to furnish refrigerator
cars TO send the strawberry crop OF the South
to Northern markets. AS a result hundreds
OF carloads Of berries, valued at millions of
dollars, have been lost. 1t will naturally
be asked why the railroad companies do
not furnish refrigerator cars from the com
pany resources, The reasons are obvious.
The Trust owns large blocks of stock of
the railroads snd often owns the railroad
manager, and they object, because they make
more money out of these cars and are not
Obliged to divide profits with the railroad
stockholders. And If a given railroad offends
the car trust, the large freight controlled by
the trust is diverted to other roads and the
offending road suffers large reduction in
receipts. In these two ways the railroads
are controlled by trusts and the common
stockhOlder and patrons of the road are
helpless sufferers and without redress. For
relief an appeal is made to Congress to pass
effective laws to restrain the greed of the
trusts and compel the railroads to act In
good faith and observe their obligations as
common carriers. In this connection it will
be pleasant to note that Secretary Taft said
TO the International Railway Congress, very
emphstically, that railway rate legislation
must come; that the sentiment of the coun
try demanded it; that discrimination, dou
BILE dealing and secret rebates must cease
and that the railroads would be wise il they
gracefully yielded to the public demand for
fair treatment.

HOW THEY WILL VOTE.

A well-known Republican leader Of Bal.
tlmore on the morning after the Council
manic election, said:
"It the DISTINGUISHING amendment had to
be voted upon tomorrow 1t would be adopt
cd by an overwhelming majority, and l
would be one of those who would vote for
It, too"
Another prominent party man, whose can
dldate for the First Branch was beaten In
what was regarded as rock .ribbed Repub.
lican ward, declared his sentiment In this
way;
~ tell you, I'm going to vote, for the
amendment. had enough negro yester
day to last me the rest of my life. The
only policy for the Republican party tc
adopt Is to help pass the amendment, be
satisfied to lose three or four years, get rid
Of the negro, and then build up 4 party Of
voters who will be there when you wan,
them"
The sentiment expressed by the Baltl
more politicians seems to be gaining ground
throughout the Western Shore. There |.
not the slightest doubt about the success Of
the amendment on the Eastern Shore, where
the people thoroughly understand the cor
ruption OF the negro element in politics
and even Republicans will lend their aid
In Kidding the State Of a most dangerous fos
to clean politics and honest elections. The
negro in politics is the cause Of great tiea
Of that which is unfair In elections, and the

TUBERCULOSIS.

The other day man died from tubercu
losis In Baltimore. He was one Of the thlr.
teen hundred who die from that disease In
year In that city-one Of the twenty five
hundred annual victims 10 the State of Mary.
land. He was workingman, and all the
notice the public received of his demise was
q line IN u half column of lines under the
caption, Died" in the daily papers. YetIn
this mans death there was a tragedy-a
garish tragedy. For many months be had
battled with the great white death" his
earnings gradually reduced to nil. Al his
death be lett widow aud four little girls.
The mother OF these children is marked for
death, for she, too, has consumption, con =.
tracted from her husband with whom she
had borne hsrdships and privatons, even to
living In dark, damp basement, without
proper food, denied even the sunlight and
free air which were her brthright. Surely
the State of Maryland owes II TO this mother
and such as must suffer like her to provide
the means whereby she may be cured of the
dread malady, II II Is not too late, aud where.
by her children may he spared the months
and years of suffering to which they are
now exposed.
Given the proper amount Of Intelligent
work, It appears that it would be possible TO
almost entirely wipe out this greatest foe 10
human life from our State.

a REPUBLICAN, QUARREL.


Secretary Tafrs public announcement that
the Isthmian Canal Commission will pur.
chase material for the construction of the
waterway in the lowest market, without
preference for American goods and without
restriction as to American bottoms, has raised
the biggest kind of row in the Republican
party. And it begins in President Roose.
velrs Cabinet itself.
The statement was made at the Presidents
direction and has been given the widest pub
licity.
Dispatches from Washington state that
Secretary Shaw is known 10 regard the an
nouncement of this policy as an assault on
the principle OF protection, and "in the house
OF its friends" Senator Burrows and Rep
resentative John Dalzell, of Pennsylv anis,
the "high priest of high protection" are as
founded at the situation as developed, and
Representative Grosvenor can hardly con.
tain himself.
Had the question been submitted at a
Cabinet meeting It is known that Secreta-
ries Shaw and Wilson would have strenu
ously opposed the announcement of any
such policy. 1t is also thought that Attor.
ney-General Moody and Secretary Hitch.
cock would also have advised against 1t .
The Presidents supporters would have been
Secretary Taft, Secretary Morton and Post
master General Cortelyou. When Secre-
tary Metcalf was in the House he was put
on the Ways and Means Committee because
he was stand patter," but it is not be-
lieved be would have opposed the Presi
dents policy In the present instance.
The announcement is likely to bring 10 a
food Of protests from American manuiac.
turers who have contributed literally to the
Republican campaign fund. The action is
regarded in some quarters as very frank
notice TO these manufacturers that they must
come down in their prices.

on the diamond during the com
ing summer. At present a mum.
Der of fast ball tossers are en-
ployed in the city and if some in.
terest could be aroused Bemidji
could sport as fast team as last
year. The plan as set forth by
several fans is to hire battery

remaining positions with local
ball players. This is without
doubt the most feasible plan for

summer than salaried team
could not be supported by play

plans as outlined for this year
look more reasonable and it is to
