Lines TO General
r. A. Ayers

The following lines were received {
this office few days ago, written by a
prominent citizen OF Wise, Va:
Unwise to say in passing
1t would entail disgrace.
To note his early childhood,
His wrecked condition" trace;
Nay, rather 'twould be honor
To start from lowest ground,
And climb ere death o'ertakes him
The steps the great have found.
Just like the mighty river
Emerging from the hill,
Increasing TO brooklet
With strength to turn a mill;
And through its sinuous channels
Widening as it goes,
Defying all obstruction
AS TO the sea it flows.
Long we enjoy him on his kindly ton
que,
All ears and hearts with the same rap
tuTe hung,
His style does so much truth and
sweetness bear,
Hear it but once and you forever hear;
His subjects various yet they jointly
warm
All spirit, life, and every work a charm,
Correct throughout, the best and fast
est friend,
What he has finished nothing else can
mend. ID. L. l..

A REPLY.

Mr.. I'D. f. L."
On General Ayers and the public, your
wit you cannot beguile,
Because, as can be plainly seeen, the
above is plagiarism,
Which is entirely out of style.
And as for the sentence
Just like the mighty RIVER
Emerging from the hill,
INCREASING to a BROoKLET,
With strength to turn a MILL"
/ will only suggest that your compari-
son must have been upset i'm the
heave,
Because a River could not well In
crease TO a BrOOklet,
AS a mere school boy would preceive.

Attempt by the To-
baCCO Trust In Indiana

indianapolis, Feb. 27.-1'he sensa-
ton OF the present session OF the In
diana General Assembly came today
in the House during the discussion Of
the anticigarette bill, when Represen-
tative Baker, OF Case and Fulton coun-
ties, produced five 800 bills which had
been given TO him as bribe to vote
against the bill The disclosure came
when he arose to explain his vote.
"F'or reasons Of equity, which appeal
to me strongly" he said. 81 am not In
favor OF this bill and wish to register
my vote against il, but for the infor-
nation OF certain outside agencies as
to my motive / have disclosure TO
make.
GIVEN AN ENVELOPE.
Some days ago a man approached
me in my hotel-a man 1 know to be
identified with the tobacco trust. Ar
ter had unwittingly promised not 10
disclose his identity he handed me an
envelope, saying that there would be
more coming from the same source az
ter action was taken on the bill. have
not opened this envelope. which pre-
sumo contains money, but l will now
DO so in the presence Of this House."
With this, Baker drew from his
pocket plain white envelope and tore
off the end. From this he produced
five crisp $50 bills and sent them up to
the Speaker.
HELD NAME BACK.
He said that he did not want the
money and that it was at the disposal
OF the House. Representative Regler
was on his feet with a motion TO com
pei Baker to disclose the name OF the
Driber. This Baker absolutely refuses
to do. Speaker Cantwell spoke on the
seriousness OF the matter and called
meeting OF the judiciary committee TO
consider it later in the day.
The anticigarette bill, which will
make it unlawful to have a cigarette
in ones possession, was then passed
by vote OF "a 70 Il.
