4 AM dying. Egypt. dying!
Ebb the crimson life tide fast.
And the dark Plutonian shadows
Gather on the evening blast.
Let thine arm. D queen. enfoid me;
Hush thy sobs and bow thine ear;
Listen to the great heart secrets
Thou. and thou alone. must hear.
Though my SCARED and veteran legions
Bear their eagles high no more
And my wrecked and scattered galleys
Strew dark Actium's fatal shore.
Though no glittering guards surround me
Prompt to do their masters Will.
I must perish like a Roman
Die the great triumvir still.
Let not Caesars servile minions
Mark the lion thus made low.
Twas no foeman's arm that felled him.
Twas his own that struck the blow;
His. who. pillowed oil thy bosom.
Turned aside from glory's ray
His. who. drunk with thy caresses.
Madly threw a world away.
Should the base plebeian rabble
Dare assail my name at Rome.
Where the noble spouse. Octavia.
Weeps within her widowed home,
Seek her: say the gods bear witness.
Affairs. augurs. circling wings,
That her blood. with mine commingled.
Yet shall mount the thrones OF kings.
And for thee. star eyed Egyptian.
Glorious sorceress OF the Nile.
Light the path of Stygian horrors
With the s~plendors of thy smile;
Give the Caesar crowns and arches.
Let his blood the laurel Irvine:
I can scorn the senate's triumphs.
Triumphing In love like mine.
I ain dying. Egypt. dying!
Hark. The insulting foeman's cry.

British public opinion so openly

The riots in Vancouver, Il C.,

the Oriental quarter on Saturday
have been followed by a condition
of affairs that is almost that OF an
armed truce. The Japanese,
fresh from the battle in which the
Vancouver men were put to flight
before their pistols, r contin-

refused to work and the Japanese
are following their example.
Canada will probably have to pay
a large indemnity to the insulted

 Governor Smith is rather indignant over stories sent out from Atlanta to Eastern and Western papers to the ef- feet that he would defy the Federal courts and enforce the new passenger rates at any cost.
 Predicated on these stories, editorials condemnatory of Governor Smith have appeared in some of the leading pa- pers of the country. Recently a very severe stricture of Governor Smith ap- peared editorially in The New York
 In the first place. Governor smith states that he has never by direct statement or through any language that could be so construed, intimated any defiance on his part of the Federal or any other courts. He Is a firm re- specter of the law, whether Federal or State, and has and will continue to abide by it's mandates.
 Governor Smith expects to fight open ly and above board in the courts to sustain the Railroad Commission in its order reducing the passenger rates in this State If the State should lose, there will be no defiance of the law,
 Governor Smith and the Commission are making preparations to fight the case before Judge Newman on Septem- Der Is. The Governor is not sensitive to just criticism of his public acts or criticism based on actual facts, but he does object very naturally to the kind of criticism arising from misstatements of facts or of his action as Governor of the State.

WHAT, INpEEps

A correspondent of The New York Sun, alluding to some of the claims made for the Roosevelt regime, puts these questions:
 What necessities of life are cheaperi What greater production, of wealth has been made?
 For whom is life easier?
 What "malefactor of great wealth has been jailed or even indicted?
 That, says The Charleston Post, "is very searching inquisition, yet 1t fails utterly to reveal anything of perti- nence. There has been a vast amount of agitation. but what has come out of it all7 Certainly the poor man is not in any better condition, as regards the cost of living, than he was in the days before Roosevelt. On the con- trary. the necessities of life have in- creased in cost enormously during the period of MT. Roosevelt's running of things until they are almost beyond the reach of the ordinary income No- body Is making any more money now than he was seven years ago, but a good many people are making less. And the idea of life being easier is mere vexation in the knowledge that 1t isn't and isn't even desired to be. There is always the admonition to struggle and strife, the spurring on to restless ness. the idea of doing things wheth- er worthy or otherwise it is not given to determine. The idea of rest and reflection is abstracted from our phil osophy of life. If any man is at ease he is denounced as a mollycoddle.

FTGHrfNG rrsrr.r.

The Muskogee U ID PhentK Is a Republican howler of the lcudest va- riety. It Is against the new ccnstitu- ton and against everything else that the President opposes and Democracy favors. Recently it asked some ques- items. thus: DO you want to make a Mississippi. an Arkansas or an Ala bama of Oklahoma? If you do. vote the Democratic ticket" Then it re- verses the query and asks: DO you want to make an Iowa, Illinois, Ohio or Pennsylvania of Oklahoma? If you do, vote the Republican ticket"
 The Phenix hasn't gumption enough to see it, but it could hardly advance Democratic interests better than it does by such questions. The large majority of the voters of Oklahoma are Democrats. and nothing would Alabama of the new State. politically. socially. industrially and commercial ly. Saying nothing of Mississippi and Arkansas, the Oklahomans who are properly informed will double their ef- forts for Democracy if by so doing they make of their State another Ala bama.
 On the other hand, those Oklahoma citizens who are posted as to other sections of the Union will look with the reverse of satisfaction on any course that might tend to make a Pennsylvania of their state. If they know what Pennsylvania Is and has been under Republican control and mis- management they will vote, work and pray to avoid such fate for Oklahoma. In short. although The Phenix may not be aware of the fact, 1t is going the right way to make Oklahoma overwhelmingly and irrevocably Demo cratic. We cordially wish 1t success.
