before they were established in their
new home. The summons came to him
before his visions and plans had been
realized.
The dream of life is further a troubled
dream. Through every life no matter
how much pains have been bestowed
upon it there runs a strain of peryers;tv
which yields a fruitage of distres. and
tear. In the face of all our wisdom
and %endeavor, shadows will creep in
and darken the chambers Of the soul.
The cause for all this disturbance is the
presence of secret sins which, however,
they may be hidden from our fellowmen
God has set them in the light of his
e~ountenance. We disobey the laws of
our weli.being. Our lusts and passions
drive US far from the gath Of righteous
ness, anger and hate bring to us con.
tlct and discomfort.
From all this we might he led to
think that life was a stupendous failure.
But what does ii all matter if we know
beforehand that such will be the con
dlt'ons ct our present existence saws
Or. Van Dykee: The mistake we make
is that expect too much from the world.
We find fault with it,and mourn over it
and breathe it, because it is not heaven.
But indeed it is a very good world, if we
will only take it for what it is, II is a
place of discipline aud surely adversely
hath its sweet uses. It's the place
where our pasaw VS. ay relsy ike a tale

who is telling the tale and if we will

the progress OF the story will be wonder

en- u lurality of at least 100000
AS it managed It was one contin-
uous 81 of blunders from the be-
ginning he day of election with
disastr suits to Mr.. Hearst. The
defeat 6r. Hearst was a party
disaster for which feel deeply griev-
ed because I fully believed that he
was sincere and really meant to do
the best good of which he was aapa-
BILE for the common people. We have
succeeded in dislodging some of the
well entrenched state Officers of the
Republican strongholds and put in
their places some at least who sup
ported our ticket In the last campaign.
I will continue to read your magazine
as long as 1t is published. get it at a

the demand for 1t far exceeds the
supply but that will no doubt be rem

Dear Sir:
Please send me sample copy of
your magazine. I learned of the vent
ure In the New York Times Book
Review. In the Life and Times of
Andrew Jackson" hope you will fully
discuss Jackson's greatest "coup"
against both legal and illegal tyranny,
the smashing Of the United States
bank.
Your views on political questions, de-
Ivered in editorials" hitherto pub
lished in Watson's Magazine Of New
York, are the necessity Of thoughtful
Americans, who seek the truth.

My Dear Sir:
The February number of the new
magazine has been received. It is
chock full, heaped up, pressed down,
and running over with good things
to read. I don't blame the New York
magazine for doing the "skidoo" act
1t couldn't play in the backyard shade
trees Of the new magazine-the real
Tom kind. had thought the January
number couldn't be improved upon, but
still the wonder grew, and here it is
far and away ahead of the first issue.
Real live editorials on up-to-date sub
jects as versatile in their choice as
the authors mind. Then "Ann Boyd"
as good as the best. Mr.. Bayne's two
contributions, "Home Life of Mr.. Wat
son." Survey Of the World" all in
readable style. The editorial on For
titude' can't be beat.
My friend Mr.. J. A. Kelly, Of the
Senior law class and I decided we
needed the magazine in the Univer-
sity Library Reading Rooms, so we
wrote a petition for the librarian to
subscribe, as is customary, and just
asked the boys to sign as wewould meet
them on the campus and at the dining
hall; we have 100 signers and could
easily get that many more.
Mr.. S. B. Mccall is doing good work
among the boys for the Weekly JEFF
fersonian. Respectfully,

Dear Sir:
have before me and have just
finished reading Watson's Jeffersonian
Magazine. now feel greatly relieved
because when learned few months
ago that your relations with Watson's
Magazine had been severed was ap-
prehensive that you might not start
another. congratulate you upon your
courage and enterprise and also upon
your consideration for your friends
and admirers and they are many who
will generously respond to and appre-
ciate your devotion to them. I am fas-
cinated by it's first issue and will do
all I can to enthusiastically support
it in the future.
note what your magazine contained
as to the money question and agree
with 1t fully.
It seems to me that now would be a
good time to agitate new issue of
greenbacks; If more money is needed
issue greenbacks. Nothing will ST.
lence the clamor Of the National Bank
ing ring so effectually as the propo-
sition to supply the business interests
of the country with the right kind of
money (greenbacks). also note what
your magazine stated as to the candi-
dates Bryan, Parker and Hearst and
think It was just right. I am sorry,
however, that you were so misled by
what the Hearst papers stated as to
Mr.. Charles f. Murphy, for I think
Mr.. Murphy demonstrated the only
principle Of correct politics that was
discoverable on the Democratic side In
the last campaign and feel like CIV
ing him great credit considering his
surroundings. don't think he was

loaned It out, am trying to get others
to subscribe for it and your Weekly
Jeffersonian. I get both and am due
for the Weekly which will remit for
some time soon; don't know how I
could get along without them for I
have always stood where you stand
and It does my heart good to know you
are still at the stand prepared to strike
above the belt. am proud of one
thing-although we we're defeated
as Populists, yet our principles are
promulgated, in a large measure, by
each of the two old parties. Mr.. Bry-
an seems to be anxious for the Demi
Plum but you may bet your soul he
never will reach the white house.
Why? Simply because there are
enough Of the boys that did defeat
him when he went back on Mr.. Wat
son to do It again. That's the size
of IT, Why I voted for Mckinley and
Teddy, hence you perceive the wind
blows whence It come or goes but you
hear the sound thereof and after the
blow is over one can see the effects
of the storm and so It has been with
the Democratic party for years, they
brag and blow and yet It don't amount
to hill Of beans. Your last Maga-
zine is simply grand. The get up is
superfine. I did not cancel my sub
scription to the New York concern,
thought the best way to whip them
was to let them use up the money in
buying paper and printing and after
you quit I received two copies then
