THE ENQUIRER FORECAST.

Thus early the fight. that astute
political forecaster, the Cincinnati
Enquirer, Democratic of old. con-
cedes the west 10 the Republicans.
In weighing the Significance of that
deliberate declaration. the peculiar
reiations the Enquirer bears TO the
middle west and the southern border
states. and it's characteristics must be
considered The Enquirer is Demo-
cratic, with record that shows no
wavering: but II Is first OF all a news
paper, and its editorials are opinions,
newer sermons. The Enquirer covers
the states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan,
kentucky and eastern Tennessee.
Like the New York Herald, the En-
)qufrer's boast is tire accuracy Of its
political forecasts. and ID never speaks
until II Is convinced. The Enquirer
does not spend election mornings in
vague claims. Wren the Enquirer
ventures an opinion on tine political
situation. the reader may rect as
sured Of one thdng-the Enquirer's
editor has reasons to believe he b.
right.

A EIrLOGY OF LEE.

When we die let II be said OF U.S.
That our aim in the most part was
unselfish;
That no one better appreciated our
own weaknesses, and no one was ever
quicker to excuse the same weakness
les in others;
That in all our dealings with our
fellowmen we sought for something
noble. and We never were disappoint-
| ed; .e.
That we never failed to appeal to
this nobility and never failed OF fair
response;
That in the hour of greatest tri.
umph we did not forget the base meta
that welded us to the common mass
of humanity. and in the moment Of
our deepest degradation We did moi
forget that We were part divine;
That If We gave pain. we also com
forted; -t..
That IL we wronged, we also par
doned;
That we lived in anticipation OF
death, and died in anticipation OF
life;
That we loved, and laughed. and
wept, and hoped; ~
That We stumbled and staggered
on, and said farewell:
I That misfortune always overlook
us going in the same direction. and
good fortune always met us in the
road;
That We never lacked a necessity
that Providence did not supply. and
we never had a base desire the Devil
did not crafty;
That IL We found life sweet. we
knew II as a taste of all eternity. and
passed on cheerfully, expecting to
drink deeper;
That when We opened our eyes on
this world our first voluntary act was
TO twist our lips into a cry. and
when at last we closed our eyes and
volition left us, our lips relaxed into
smile again. Here's mystery
And until those lips speak, let not
folly's words eytol life, that only
won a smile from us in parting.

At meeting OF representatives OF
