THE BATTLE OF THOUGHT.
(By Julia Cook Coon.)

Back through the rust-clouded years of the
past,
In the darkness by ignorance wrought
In the jungles when mankind first entered the
race,
Was begun the great battle of Thought
Though the masses were fettered by folly and
hate
There heroes who pressed toward the
light;
Unheeding the and unheeding the blows,
In their alone lay their might;
Though the masses knelt down with their eyes
to the past
The heroes pressed on, ever on.
On, up the hillside of knowledge and Truth
Undaunted by fagot rack,
To unclasp Hates letters, loose cruelty's hands
OF courage there never lack.
The sceptre of hope they hold firm in their
hands,
And worked for the goal within view.
Though the masses knet down With their eyes
to the west,
The heroes have ever pressed on.
Now, far up the hillside, they catch the first
CLEAN
OF the brightness of To-morrow's glad day;
They turn and they becb"n to those in the
vale,
And send them of hope the first ray.
o. promised historys lines do not
fall
Now, on, to the full morning light!
Though the masses still knee in the Valley
of Doubt,
The heroes will press

spent in transportation in supplies, in ammun,
ition (the latter of the blank cartridge va
riety) and the nation it is supposed, will be
able to rest content after it is all over
than they have been expected to do previous
to the undertaking.
But why should be necessary, except
for mere purposes of defense? The people do
not need war; they do not ask for it or seek
it, A standing army is a menace to cvi-

labor. But governments must play and in
order to justify the propensity TO- military
