The New WOman'S Prayer.

o Lord, come to Thee in prayer once more
| But pardon if do not kneel before
| Thy gracious presence, for my knees are sor
With so much walking; in my chair instead
III sit in ease and humbly bow my head
I've labored in Thy Vineyard, Thou dos
know;
I've sold ten tickets to the minstrel show;
I've called on fifteen strangers in our town
Their contributions to our church put down
I've baked a pot of beans for Wednesdays
spree,
An old time supper it is going to be;
I've dressed two dolls, too, for our annual
fair,
And made a cake which we must rattle there
Now with Thy boundless wisdom so sublime
Thou knowest that these duties all take
time,
I have no time to fight my spirits foes;
I have no time to mend my husbands
clOthes
My children roam the streets from morn till
night
I have no time to teach them to do right;
But Thou Lord considering all my cares,
Wilt count them righteous, also heed my
prayers.
Bless the bean supper and the minstrel show,
And put 1t in all the hearts to CO.
Induce the visitors to patronize
The men who in our program advertise;
Because I've chased those merchants till
they've hid
Wheneer they saw me coming-yes they did.
Increase the contributions to our fair
And bless the people who assemble there
Bless Thou the grab bag and the gypsy tent,
The flower table and the cake that's sent
May our whist club be to our service blest,
The dancing party gayer than the rest;
And when Thou hast bestowed these bless
ings, then
We pray that Thou will bless our souls.
Amen.-l Pawtucket Or. H. Gazette and

The Insurance Fight.

The balloting for the control of the
New York Life Insurance Company and
the Mutual Life Insurance Company
closed Dec. is and it will be many weeks
before the result is known The admin
istration boasts that it has won, and it
probably has, as it had 10000 agents
working overtime to get the policy
holders to support the Standard Oil
tickets and this gigantic trust has pro-
badly secured the control of the surplus
of the two companies now about
$1,600,O00 900. 1t is sorry outcome of
the attempt to clean house to find the
same management in control, and it was
significant that with hardly an excep-
ton every newspaper in the United
States urged its readers to support the
policyholders ticket Incidentally it is
a tribute to the persistency and per-
suasiveness of the great army of agents,
all of whom ought to have let the policy
holders alone. Commenting on the pro-
bable outcome of the fight the Spring
field Republican well says; But if it is
true that the present arrangements OF
the companies have won, then we may
bid good-by to all hope of ever being
able to control these large mutual life
companies from the great body of policy
holders. If an established official con-
troll can so far intrench itself as to be
able to defy opposition, even when public
investigation has demonstrated its unfit
ness, and when policy holders on a
national and international scale have
put forth a special effort to dislodge that |
control under favoring laws, expanding
tens of thousands of dollars in the under
taking, what chance remains of ever be-
ing able to dislodge an established con-
troll? More than ever would it become
true that our mutual life companies are
the secure possession of selfper-
petuating inside autocracy which, so far
as the policyholders are concerned, can
do what it pleases and be as extrava-
giant with the funds for its own emolu-
ment as it chooses.

For Good Government.

The mass meeting of the business and
professional men of st. Johnsbury last
Friday evening was the most significant
gathering ever held here, and the res
possibility of the present condition was
placed just where it belongs-upon the
citizens of this village who have com
placently allowed the sale of one per
cent. beer The oldest resident cannot
recall a time when there has been so
much drunkenness on our streets as has
been seen since the county fair last Sep
TENDER. Even boys reel on our streets in
an intoxicated condition, and the case of
the 14-year-old boy, cited by Mr. Turner
at the caucus, was not an exceptional
one. The fact that he got his whiskey
by express from neighboring state does
not relieve our citizens of the RESPONSE
bility that rests upon them to make st.
Johnsbury clean town and to stop the
sale of beverage that stupefes as we'll
as intoxicates. Fortunately the amended
village charter, already lazy, provides
a way to stop the sale of the stuff, and
the new board of trustees are pledged tc
"clean up" the town. And in doing
this we firmly believe the trustees anC
other officers will be Loyalty backed W
by the citizens of St Johnsbury. Wher
the sale of one per cent. beer is stopped
and drunkenness is seen no more on oul
public streets, the resident of this fail
village can say with St. Paul, II am
citizen of no mean city,
