A Song.
Sing me a sons of the Northland
Up where the Hence is deep
Sweetly. 1 drop into dreaming;
Softly. 1 sink into sleep:
Groom to me snatches of pillows,
Breathe to me bars Of the bay.
Bring to me here in the lame
Lifts from the lark's roundelay!
Softly, sing softly. of curlews.
Wheeling like phantoms at play,
Groom me a lay of the forest
Fresh with the fragrance Of May
Let me feel free as the zephyrs
Kissing the hills and the wales,
Thrilling my soul with their nectars
Under the sky's billowed sails!
Let not a note be of State street.
Sing to me only of hills,
Only the sweep of the country,
Only the song of the rills!
Help me forget all my duty,
Help me to lose all my care.
Watt me away to the ~porthward
Up to the tamaracks bare!
Groom of the sapphirine sky.
Softly, sing softly, with rhythm
Tuned to the clouds floating by;
Let me dream onward and upward,
There where the silence is deep;
Softly! Aye, softly. I'm falling
Softly-Aye-softly-to sleep!

The Ostracism of Aristides.

1t was a hot and sultry day in Ath.

Despite the humidity, momentous
business was on in the market-place.
Grave citizens were solemnly borrow
Ing lead pencils and forgetting to re.

crowded. Behind the lace curtains
stern men were putting crosses in the
circles with ruthless abandon
Emerging from the booths, they
handed strange bits of broken shells
and fragments of olive dishes to the
| high-jinks who stood hardly a great
open soap-kettle in the center of the
town hall. Upon each bit of pottery,
or shell, were scrawled strange hero.

Then at the sound of a dinner-gong he

At last there was a lull in the vot

there was no wandering from 1t and no
haphazard hitting upon victory. Men
hire others to help on their work, to
help them accomplish, but the achieve
ment in the end is not due to the men
hired to help; they do their part. In
deed, but it is the directing head, the
intent of that director to win that
crowns the work with success
This fact, this inexorable law, Is the
thing that prevents government. a city.
a state or a nation, from making decid.
ed successes in Ines that men win In
on their own account. The news re-
ports review the fact that twelve Indi.
ana cities have in a short time found
municipal ownership impracticable.
failing above all to give the people the
service they need n also falling to
bring results in keeping with the ex-
penditures. 1t is not surprising that
this should be true; in fact, a reported
success or municipal ownership Is gen
orally found to be a Reckoning of a
short period and one hat time will
change through the operation of the
law that victory can come only through
some one head being directed to-
ward 1t.
One of the Oldest of our English tru-
isms is that which says: What is ev'
~erybody's business is nobody's bust
ness" It is os true today as it was
when mothers taught it t. their boys
and girls. Getting along. making
Roadway, doing things, winning sue
cess, is somebody's business. Unless
somebody makes that specific goal his
business the goal Is never going to be
reached. A municipality chooses one
man to do its work today, will pick an
other at the next election. All munich
pal business is run on the same plan;
the man in office yesterday held a diff,
ferent idea from the one who takes the
place today, and the new la finds it
necessary to change the whole plan,
The business that is going to endure
was planned IN the long ago and has
been held to the same ours and to
ward the same port from the begin
ming. A new hand brings improve
ments only for a time, make a squirt
like a ringer in on the ace course, but
soon the squirt is exhausted and the
business settles back.
A city may be fortunate enough now
and then to find a group of officials
who will give that thought and atten'
ton to its business they would give to
their own; but the chances are they
will be followed by u reactionary group
that will undo al that a good board
has accomplished. The very tempo
rary success gives rise to covetousness
and greed and stimulates self-seekers
TO get hold of the good thing.
Municipal ownership is to be judged
by its results not of WI OF four or
even a dozen years, but by the stand
ard of a mans life If the right COMPARE
son Is to be drawn. 1t will not do to
say that this town or that has found it
profitable for u term; it must be meas
ured as the life work of an individual
is measured to know whether 1t is
promising most of success or failure,
and the evidence so far in this country
as well as in the old world is over,
whelmingly against the principle
denver Republican.

Mr.. Merriam was present at Oxford
when the degree LII. d. was conferred
upon Mark Twain and had the pleasure
OF meeting that greatest of American
humorists. He also met Rudyard Kip

ality as he did that of DR.. Clemens.
Lord Roseberry was also a friend of
the American students and once dined
with the American club at Oxford.
Peculiarly English.
Mr.. Merriam talked at some length
upon Oxford university, and said that
it was not likely any American institu.

Wyoming Student Discusses Effect of
Three Years Stay in Great Britain
Upon the Minds Of the Forty-two
Americans-Only Half a Dozen
Willing to Stay There.

Harold Merriam of this city. who
has just returned from London, where
he studied three years in Oxford uni
versity as the first and only so-called
Rhodes scholar from this state, in
speaking of the effect of the three
years stay in that college of the forty
two American students upon their 10y
atty to their home institutions, says
that not to exceed half a dozen of the
whole number were willing to remain
in that country, and even some of
these needed the incentive of a better
paying position than they would ex-
pect at home. One of the number has
applied for a fellowship in one of the
colleges, hoping thus to be enabled to
continue a certain line of study there
with the intention of applying it here.

with which the men drop into the old

the boys came from a small town in

that he of all the number would be
less likely to relish the homecoming
and the going back to the old way.
But word from him is that before the

DAINTIEST OF

New York, Oct. 24-Ruffles and
frills! No other words are express
sive of the billowy white heaps of
lingerie displayed in the stores and
exchanges. There seems to be no limit
to the ingenuity of the designers,
and one wonders If these dainty ar
ticles are really for wear, their del
icacy appears too frail for service,
but the desire for elaborate trim
mings, daintiness and fineness is not
yet gratified in the heart of the
American woman. Both French and
American makers vie with each other
Each has its clientels; the former
has been up to the present time,
much moro expensive than the Amer
lean garments, but now that hand
work Is SO in demand, the French
influence is leaving its mark even
upon American goods, and the price
is accordingly increasing.
To speak of one particular gar
ment, petticoats, is both necessary
and pleasurable. 1t is imperative
that this adjunct of woman S
wardrobe should be absolutely cor

of the outside skirt, and no woman
could inspect these dainty articles
without receiving many ideas that
