THE MAN BEHIND THE HOE.

Let no one sing of slanted brow
On him who tills the soil;
The farmer loves the faithful earth,
And loves his daily toll.
It's trle his back may curve a wee.
By bending over so:
But ali his heart is straight and true
The man behind the hoe.
Let no one sing of narrowed soul.
Of him who turns the sod:
'Tis his to breathe the virgin air,
And feel the kiss of God.
Tis his 10 see the mysteries
Of nature come and go,
The budding plant, the perfect seed,
The man behind the hoe.
'Tis him TO feel the springs first thrill
With hint of bluebird's wing;
'Tis his 10 smell he clover sweet,
And hear the thrushes sing;
'Tis his to see the meadows wave.
Like ripping waters slow;
All sweetest sights and sounds are
his,
| The man behind the hoe.
'Tis his TO watch the springing corn
And feel the freshning rain,
| 'Tis him to smell the blossoming grape
| And see the ripening grain.
'Tis his to pluck the golden yield
| From fruit trees bending low;
Why, heaven itself lies all about
The man behind the hoe.
Oh. blest the man whose lot is cast
Thus close TO natures heart:
What need has he OF millions stored.
Who of the whole is part.
What need has he of bank or bond,
Who works TO make things grow;
The only freedom on the globe
Is his behind the hoe.

PROPER SALUTE To
NATIONAL ANTHEM

There has been considerable comment
and on one or two occasions nearly
trouble, in regard to the action of
some citizens of this city when the
national anthem is played by the band.
To set this matter right the following
order, which was posted on the trans
port Thomas, should prove of interest:
Attention of all passengers and
troops on board is called to Paragraph
256. United States Army Transport
Regulations, 1905, by General order No.
13O War Department Series No 100.
Series 1906, which prescrbes that all
persons on deck will. during the play

scribed by regulation. These instruc-
tions will be observed by all persons

We're to meet at the Governors office
at noon and a protocol for a modus
vivendi was to be drawn UP. When
Mrs. Kelekolio learned that her recre-
ant husband had resigned and was
even then on his way in flight to the
Coast, she went at once to the police
station and asked Chief of Detectives
Taylor to telephone at once" to San
Francisco and have him sent back.
Then she went back to the Capitol to
tell her troubles to Acting Governor
Atkinson.
Kelekolio, besides holding a clerkship
under the Territorial government, has
been a campaign orator for the Re-
publican party of marvellous powers
of speech making. He has also been
president of the Riverside Baseball
League since it was organized and be-
fore leaving sent a touching letter of
resignation to its secretary, w. Tin
Chong.
To members of the league he said
he intended to deliver lectures on Ha-
