As the years mark time on the mystic page
And the white frost rests on the crown OF age
And the far call comes from beyond the sky
In sort of sunset lullaby.
1t is sweet to pause in the rose-red west
Just to muse of those that we loved the best.
II is sweet TO dream of the ones we knew
In the far of world with its dome OF blue;
Ii Is sweet TO pause in the sunset land
For backward glance at the childish band;
For lingering look. ere the frost Winds blow
Al the ones we loved In tie long agoi
All the ones we loved in the long ago!
They have drlfted far with the ebb and flow,
They have sailed their crafts on the open sea
To the harbor's rest and the tides debris.
All! the trusts that failed and the prizes missed
And the cold dead lips Of the hopes we kissed!
Like the frost SCARED leaves of rpened rose
On the tangled path whore II soft wind blows,
We may rest an hour In the warming sun
We may rest and dream Of the journey run
But the night is near aud the petals blow
To the ones we loved in the long ago.

Citizens for Convenience.

Milwaukee News.
The new naturalization law deals eff
fectively with the abuse of naturaiiza-
ton rights by foreigners who acquire
citizenship and, returning to their ma
tive lands, make use of it to evade the
duties and obligations that their former
allegiance imposed 1t is provided that
when any naturalized citizen shall
have resided for two years in the for
egn state from which he came, it shall
be presumed that he has ceased to be
an American citizen, and his place of
general abode shall be deemed his place
of residence during the said years. +"
Provision, however. is made that upon
the presentation of evidence to the con-
trary before the proper consular or dip
lomatic officers the presumption that
citizenship has been forfeited shall not
stand.
The acquiring ny aliens of American
citizenship as means of evading mill
tal iNltC anu pNIlCl
posed upon them by their native lands
to which they return has beer a source
of embarrassment to the federal govern
ment. Naturahzed citizens that return
to their native lands to make their per-
manent homes obviously are not enti-
tied to the rights and protection given
to American citizens. Their citizenship
becomes merely device for evading
all duties and responsibilities of citizen
ship. For the United State to under
take to extend to such persons the pro-
lection of its citizenship naturally is re-
sented 10y foreign governments and in
some instances its pretentions have
been denied. II it protects its genuine
citizens in their right it will be doing
its full duty. 1t is under no obligation
to concern itself over naturalized citi-
2ens that, returning to their former
homes, assert their citizenship only
when duty or service is to be shirked
and eVaded.

The Two Cent fare BIN.

Fond du Lac Commonwealth.
There will naturally be a wide differ
ence of opinion over the wisdom of the
senate's action in recalling the assem-
bly, substitute bill on the two cent fare
question, at the eleventh hour, and
passing it. The rate question has been
threshed out pretty thoroughly in Wis
consin during the last six months, and
most people had hoped for rest on that
question long enough at least, to give
the new rates chance to be tried out.
While Wisconsin may not have drawn
quite as choice prize package as some
of the states which secured two cent
rate, it was pretty sure to escape the
tangle of litigation threatened in some
sections by reason of the new laws.
The Wisconsin rate commission investi
gated the subject of both passenger
and freight rates very thoroughly, more
thoroughly, perhaps, than any of the
members Of the legislature who have
counseled this precipitate action, and
the result was the recommendation Of
% cent rate. Conservative people were
quite willing that this recommendation
should stand and were therefore pleas
ed at the original action Of the senate
in rejecting the assembly's two cent
fare bill.
The sudden change Of front will be
received with mingled feelings of doubt
and displeasure, but for all that it may
be well to look at the question from all
sides before venturing hasty criti-
cism. The advocates of this two cent
fare legislation, just on the eve of adj
journment, find some excuse for their
action in the apparent surrender Of the
railroads to those states which have
enacted two cent fare laws, while still
maintaing the 2le cent rate in Wiscon-
sin. This discrimination, together with
complications arising by reason Of diff
ferent rates in different states, formed
prominent part and parcel of the
grievances which were aired and which
finally resulted in the bolt for cheaper
passenger fares. And still, in spite of
all this, there will be a feeling that
Wisconsin, having established reputa-
ton for conservatism, might better
have given the railroads chance to
show their hand and prove whether or
not they would discriminate against .
state, simply because it was disposed to
treat them fairly.
Since the above was put in type the
bill has been signed by the governor,
and is TO go into effect August 18th.
Railroad unrighteous freaks since the
o. rate was adopted have brought
this upon them, says the governor. -

Kramer, La Crosse, 96. 10; Casper An
deregg, La Crosse, 95.33. The average
Of all Cheddar cheeses scored was 93.3
and for all Brick cheeses 1888. The
principal flavor defects found were
weedy, fermented whey, coarse, acidy,
or low favors. Weedy favors were the
result of weeds eaten by the cows. I'm
cleanliness in or about the factory was
the chief cause of whey havors, as
germs are introduced in the starter
when cans are left open or are not well
cleaned. Coarse or acid favors were
caused by insufficient cooking, and the
low favored cheeses needed more salt.
Six prizes aggregating $50 have
been offered by Ex-Congressman S. A.
Cook of Neenah for the highest scores
made during the year in the butter and
cheese exhibitions. Mr.. Cook has done
much in the advancement of dairy in
terests in the state, having by his I'M
firing efforts aided largely in the elm
nation of filed cheeses from market.
Believing that the success of dairying
in the state depends more on stimula-
ton of cheese and butter makers to-
ward improvement of quality than up
on the regulation of market prices, he
has offered six easy chairs, valued at
$35, $25 and SIS each, for the three
highest scores of the year made by

turerS

MosT men who have built up large
fortunes, or who have been successful
in business way, on a smaller scale,
are able to trace the beginning of their
success to the time when they commenc-
ed to put aside part of their earnings
While this may have meant hardships
and sacrifices of no mean proportions,
and, in most cases, it did, the saving
habit once established, became part
of a mans life and as the saving grew,
it helped him to independence The
trouble of it is that many people fail to
realize the Importance of acquiring this
habit early in life, or rather they are
unwilling to contend with the sacrifices
they imagine it will mean. The Tribune
believes it is a good thing to encourage
this savings habit in community and
particularly in boys and girls. Much of
the money given to children for "spend-
ing money" might better be placed in a
savings bank where it will help the
child acquire the savings habit and, in
cidentally will work for him and will
be available when a modest capital may
enable him to take advantage of bust
ness opportunity.

THE state dairy and food depart
ment, which has been rendering the
people a splendid service during the
past few years, has just discovered a
new fraud on consumers which is likely
to make some one a lot of trouble I'M
less it is discontinued. 1t is the practice
of marking up the weights of cheese by
which means certain wholesale dealers
are able to undersell legitimate jobbers
and make up on the cut price by the
short weights. The short weights come
as a burden upon the retail dealer. I'M
less passed along by him to the consum-
or, and it is the consumer which the
state dairy and food commission pro
posed to protect. AS result, there
will be some sharp watching of cheese
shipments and some weighing will be
done both in transit and in warehouses.

Punishment inadequate.

The sentence of Mayor Schmitz, of
San Francisco, to term of five years
imprisonment in the state penitentiary,
brings to light another instance where
the punishment fails to fit the crime
Confidence, in the judgment of the
jury, has been betrayed in the most
brazen manner possible, and net con-
tent with this the offender has the fur
ther brazenry to literally defy the court
and interrupt the Judge with insulting
remarks while he is passing sentence.
Judge Dunn bore all this effrontery
with rare dignity, and yet, at the same
time, he delivered scathing rehuke to
the prisoner, remarking that the SEN
tence was inadequate punishment for
the crime, but the greater punishment
would be found in the loss of confidence
which had been imposed in the mayor,
and which is now turned to dsdain.
