was deeply impressed and assured the gentleman
from South Carolina that the conditions would
have to be remedied. Remembering Mr.. Rockefel-
lers princey donations to the south, Senator Till
man felt that further contributions to the cause
might not be unexpected
In discussing the meeting later, Senator Till
is reported to have said of the oil magnate's
conversations
''Well, sir it sounded so like Theodore Roosevelt
that [ cannot help thinking how much I'd like to
get them two fellows together"
Them two fellows" if they could be got to-
gether no doubt could find one or two things
which they could agree as did one of them with
the senator In the suggestion to get opponents
together there is more than prospect of oratory
and hot words The difficulties of the nation could
be definitely settled if people could be got together
for the common good. Disputes of labor and CAPT
tai could be settled justly if opposite interests could
be got together In the nation there is much
misunderstanding so much striving to build up
by tearing down another, that it's wonder all
get along as well as we do What need is to
get together. Make that the slogan of the cam
paign, and the whole nation rich and poor, and
the millions who are neither one or the other, will
find remedy for the rehabilitation of the finances
and industries which have suffered for lack of it.
Until we do get together cannot be really pro-
gressive Prosperity never be rational so long
as abnormal conditions obtain.

HER0ISM.

The story of the burning of the steamer st.
Cuthbert last Sunday off the coast of Nova Scotia
and the rescue of most of the crew by the White
Star liner Cymric is as thrilling as has been
furnished by the best writer's of stories of the seas
Fiction contains no more vivid scenes and the bat
tie against the fire by the crew of the ST. Cuthbert
was fought with such determination that they de-
served to win But the element was too strong 1t
spread with overwhelming power and the sturdy
combatants were gradually forced away into other
parts of the boat. True the men fought for their
lives and such fight is most desperate Although
the vessel was doomed to destruction, before it be-
came necessary to abandon the ship, the steamship
Cymrc appeared
The story of the rescue and final landing of
of the by the Cymric is no less thrilling
than the heroic efforts of the fire fighters. When
the Cymric began her work, the sea was running
wildly. Mountainous waves were pitched up by
the bowling wind. which made the launching and
navigation of the life boats most perlous But the
small craft was launched and manned, and she made
trip after trip to the burning steamship and
brought away all who remained Oh board The res
cuers took their lives in their hands to save their
brother sailors and fellow men. 1t was time when
strong hearts and willing hands saved the day and
another chapter was written into the history of
maritime heroism.
The incident than ordinary rescue
at sea; it was more than the mere extension of re-
lief to a disabled ship. The boat was doomed when
the Cymric's crew began the perous task of taking
off the survivors, and the rolling and heaving
made the task before which hearts less strong
and men less brave would have quailed The
qualities of mind displayed by the who thus
answered the call of humanity, who arose
higher than the call of duty who went the limit in
the face of disaster and DEATH are worthy of recog
milton from the Carnegie hero fund No deed Of
vaor on the battlefield could be more worthy.

TILLMAN AND ROCKEFELLER.

Among all the who have been prominently
before the public during the past few years, prob
ably no two can be named whose views of public
questions seemed more Numerically opposed than
those of John D. Rockefeller the accepted persona
flcatlon of the octopus, and Benjamin r. Tillman,
the fiery-tongued senator from South Carolina. It.
would seem from the vitriolic speeches of Tillman
that if he ever by lucky chance should meet real
live octopus, there would be bloody encounter and
that he would impale the monster on his trusty
pitchfork die in the attempt. His addresses in
the United States senate and his utterances from
the lecture platform have impressed the public that
the and only real disappointment of his life
was the constant denial of the opportunity to show
his prowess as fighter of the octopus.
Imagine, therefore these two gentlemen finding
themselves travelling through the southland on the
same train and in the same car, happened last
week Whether Mr. Rockefeller was trying to avoid
service of subpoena is not clear, and whether the
senator was riding pass is not explained. But
the men met according to reliable reports and
there was tearing of hair other unseemly con-
duct Recognition was mutual and they had quite
a friendly chat in which Mr.. Rockefeller told the
senator how he and Morgan stood behind some
thing like sixty banks in New York City during the
''recent" panic thus saving the country from dis
aster. He said he thought that pretty nice
thing for such very, very bad men to do to all of
which the bloodthirsty octopus hunter agreed.
From the financial panic the conversation
turned to other problems, particularly of the south
and Mr.. Tillman explained at some length the diff
fcultes to be overcome in spreading enlightenment
among the poor whites Of Dixie. Mr.. Rockefeller

THE ROSARY OF MY TEARS.

Gather Ryan,
The dials of earth may show
The length not the depth, of years,
Few or many they come, few or many they 60.
But time is best measured by tears.
All! not by the silver gray
That creeps through the sunny hair
And not by the scenes that we pass on our way
And not by the burrows the fingers of care
On forehead and face have made:
Not so do we count our years.
Not by the sun or the earth, but the shade
Of our souls, and the fail of our tears.
But bead by bead l tell
The Rosary of my years.
From a cross to cross they lead; It's well.
And they're blessed with blessing of tears.
Better day of strife
Than century of sleep;
Give me instead of a long stream of life
The tempests and tears of the deep.
A thousand joys may foam
On the bellows of all the years:
But never the foam brings the lone bark home
1t reaches the haven through tears.

LUCKY RHODE ISLAND.

1t is reported as the result of religious cen

there are more Roman Catholics in the common
wealth than members of all other denominations OF

state commissioner of statistics, are; Roman
Catholics, 1886; all others, 236,146. The city
which has the largest proportionate population OF

auditor issued a warrant Tuesday.
He will now certify the matter up
to the county auditor and the
amount will be figured in the general
levy for the operating expenses of
the county and when collected paid
back to the state. OF course the.
amount will eventually come out of
the lands assessed for under the new
rating the county will receive
in additional taxes the sum of
$4,148.6O or an amount of $994.oO
in excess of the actual cost of obtain
ing the re-assessment. These figures
are based upon the the 1908 rate
and are of course for but one year,
as no additional expense will be
necessary in the future.
The adding of this additional
valuation to the assembled property
of the county, together with the
other reservation lands which have
been sold by the Indians to specula-
tors, and which Auditor Dahlem
placed on the books this year, has
raised havoc with the county levy,
and whereas the rate in 1906 was
500, and in 1907 it was 1856, this
year it is but &C.
The summing up of theentire mat
ter shows that the board and county
auditor have performed their duty in
a very creditable manner in so far as
listing all the taxable property is
concerned, and also in their efforts
to secure upon this as fair and equit-
able valuation as possible.
Mr.. Getchell is also entitled to
commentator for the rapidity and
accuracy with which he performed
his duties, and it is said by those
familiar with the task he has just
completed, that the time and money
spent will be fully repaid hundred
fold in the years to come. 1t was
not thought that the work would be
completed much before the first of
the year, so Mr.. Getchell exceeded
the tax commissions estimation by
almost six weeks.
The taxpayers of the county
cannot but be gratifed at the results
attained by this important action of
comfy officials, and we trust that
they will receive the credit to which
they are entitled.
The revision of the figures in the
auditors office according to the valu-
alton as set by Mr.. Getchell now
show taxable property on the reser-
walton amounting to $1,629.4O6,
