the Jefferson Bee.
"The people OF Iowa honor Senator

and his great Abilities, admits the
Newton Record, "but the principles for
which Governor Cummins stands are

"The primary is She caucus in an

"Two-th thirds of the people who are
supporting Senator ALLISON do it be-
cause they hate Governor Cummins,
and not out OF any particular love or

don Sun. "They would be glad If he
had declined to run, but they regard
him as the only man who can possibly
defeat Cunamins, and for that reason
alone they urge him to make the

At Bedtime.
est. Louis Globe-DemocraD
The little room in fading light,
The little beds all sweet and whlte'
The little prayer at mothers knee,
And then all cuddled close to me,
Ny darlings plead for stories OLD,
That have a thousand times been told.
OF Alice in her Wonderland.
OF Cinderella's ball so grand;
The wolf and poor Red Riding HOOD,
And those dear children in the wood;
And fairy tales among the rest
Hans Anderson they love the best.
Without, the dark tumultuous night;
Within, the peace of fading light.
The years may come, the years lmay
so,
And nevermore such joy we'll know
AS when. all cuddled close at home,
The hour of story time has come.
