They started out to the world upon summers days
They thought they'd go to China but had doubts about

And they spoke Boston, perhaps twas rather

Or should they seek the and embark upon ship

And teatime found them planning still upon the garden

I know the song that the bluebird is singing
Out in the apple tree, where he is swinging.

Nothing cares he while his heart is so CHEEKY.
Hark! how the music leaps out from his throat;
Hark was there ever so merry note'
Listen awhile and you I'll hear what he g saying,
Up in the apple tree, swinging and swaying.

You must be weary of Winter, I know;

PRACTICAL POLITICS.

One of the defeated candidates for
mayor of New York city, In making
his claim to the suffrages of the cleo
tors promised, among other things, to
end the shortage of seats In the
schools; to solve the water problem;
to seize the lapsed gas franchises and
to furnish gas at half the present
price; to improve the traction situa-
ton at once, and to reduce fares on
street car lines; to punish grafters in
finance as well as in politics. These
were some of the most vital questions
which we'e at issue in the mayoralty
election in New York city. These
questions and other of similar import
are the questions which are, or should
be, at issue in city elections all over
the country.
In every one of these questions
women are vitality interested, and II
requires no delving into treatises on
economics to come to intelligent con-
clusions in regard to them. Women
are as competent to give an intelligent
decision as are men, on every one OF
these questions. Common fairness de-
mands that they shall be given an op-
portunity to record their decisions on
these matters of vital interest to them
through the medium of the ballot, by
which these questions are decided.

DEATH OF MITCHELL.

The Argonaut prints the following
touching editorial on the death OF
John H. Mitchell:
Senator John II. Mitchell of Ore
gon, died in a hospital In Portland
last week. His appeal from his con-
viction of fraud was dismissed in the
United States supreme court two days
later He was buried Tuesday by the
people of his state. The United States
took no notice of Senator Mitchell's
death.
Alone of all senators who had died
in office, Mitchell. of Oregon, after 22
years of service, WAS unaccompanied
to his grave by any of his fellow SEN
ators. Only one child could be with
him at the last.
So ends a career which was full OF
honor until almost its close. Nothing
could so fittingly show how bitter
this close was as the simple paragraph
written by stern old Harvey w. Scott
editor of the. Oregonlan.
For 40 years editor and senator had
worked and fought and quarreled
Sometimes their personal enmities had
seemed too deep ever to be cooled.
But when the opponent, enemy ant
friend of nearly half century slipped
suddenly into a dishonored grave
Editor Scott wrote the words "Johr
H. Mitchell" Then ne went on: "H'
is dead. 1t is not for the Oregonian
at this time. to attempt an estimate
of his life and character, or to write
his epitaph. Judge not that he be no
judged. For with what judgment "
Judge, ye shall be judged. and will
what measure ye mete. 1t shall b.
measured to you again"
