The Lost Children.

Children lost lost Harken to the
startled cry. Children lost lost Oh
men, the cities are full of them; and
they are your children, your own tender
little ones; mothers, the babies that
lay In smiling innocence upon your
bosoms; the dear, brave boys that
looked up to you in perfect confidence
and warm, impulsive love. Your homes
are lonely without them, your hearts
are hungry for their love. Oh, you miss
them now: the darlings of your years;
you want the little hands in your own
once more; you want the warm kiss
upon your aching brow. But life hur-
ries on and lost! lost ever rings
through the darkened aisles of time.
One by one the drunkard's graves yawn
wide and somebody's darling is gone.
The midnight reyel and gambling den
covers its ghastly dead, and the homes
are In sackcloth, and sorrow sits a
familiar guest by many hearthstone.
Brave, beloved boys, noble men, fair
browed maidens and mature woman
hood. Oh, how they fall and perish;
and the land is full OF "Rachels, weep
ing for their children, who will not be
comfOrted because they are not
Ne,rs.

Might Have Crushed Leg.

Last Thursday one of the wheels
Of heavy broad-tire wagon ran over
the leg OF Earl Cochran, two-year-old
son of David r. Cochran, and while the
leg was badly bruised there were no
bones broken. 1t is almost miraculous
that his little leg was not crushed.
Several boys were playing at the cor
ner of Sixth and Main street, among
whom was nephew of the driver, and
he was helping his nephew up on the
wagon and did not notice that Earl was
sitting where the rear wheel Of wagon
would catch him. The wheel ran over
Earl's leg just above the knee.

Want County to Build Bridges.

The supervisors of Winslow township,
]. M. Norris, A. w. Mulbollan and
George Woods, held regular monthly
meeting at Franks Tavern Saturday
and paid bills and transacted other bus
iness. Two new conuty bridges will
have to be built in the township, over
Sandy Lick creek, one near Brick &
Tile Co. plant and the other at Hop
kins, and the supervisors decided to
petition the court to have the county
build the bridges, as they are both
large enough to come under the re-
quirements OF the law for county to
build. 1t will be heavy expense to
the township If the county does not pay
expense Of building the bridges.

Who Was Dreaming |?

Is the millennium dawning? or have
the little furry creatures of the forest
decided that person who carries no
gun is not to be feared? THE STARS
reporter had a curious experience the
other evening and is yet uncertain
whether he or the squirrels can explain
1t best.
Walking home in the twilight from
Sherwood on path, leading through
grove of young trees and bordered by
tall fern and grass, he suddenly heard
the fern rustling ahead OF him. Stop
ping at point where two young sap
lings spread their branches above his
head, he waited few moments and
was soon surrounded by band OF six or
eight little brown ground squirrels,
evidently out for lark. Chattering
saucily they raced by twos and threes
over the fallen logs, through the grass
and fern, up the trees TO the slenderest
branches, and as they bent beneath
their weight jumping through the air
to neighboripg tree and circling down
its trunk to the ground, to be off i'm
mediately on wild scamper with their
fellows. 1t all occurred with radius
OF fifteen feet OF the reporter, who
stood perfectly motionless beneath the
trees, and repeated the little creatures
jumped on his feet and clambered up
his clothes, apparently without fear.
Sometimes when crossing the path,
they would pause for moment, sit up
and look at him in a questioning way,
bat evidently reassured by the lack Of
movement, went off again on the merry
romp.
The sport continued fully fifteen min
utes and was finally spoiled by con-
temptible gang of mosquito banditti,
who finding the reporter afraid'to move
plundered him deliberately of a quantity
OF good red blood. Punished beyond
endurance he finally struck at the pests.
Immediately there was startled
"chr-r-r-r." The violent movement
had shaken the confidence Of the friend
ly squirrels and moment later not one
of the little fellows was to he seen.

DECLARES ALL NATIONS
HAVE CLASS GovERNM ENT

Los ANGELES. May 3o.-[Editor
Herald; In Fridays Letter Box" ].
w. McKinnon says the Socialists will
not be "hampered by any government;
only by an organization"
This looks to me like juggling with
words. What is government IL not
an organization? Government in its
broadcast sense is organized society.
The dictionary tells us 1t is "the ad-
ministration of public affairs" The
trouble with all the present govern
ments of the world is that they are
class governments. All the govern
ments of civilization have been class
governments; but this is no wise
proves that they will continue to be
class governments Government Is Or
ganization, and organization is a good
thing. Like all other good things 1t
may be used for a bad purpose, When
the James brothers organized a gang
of highwaymen 1t was using organiza-
tion for bad purpose. Fhen the
James brothers of Wall street take
possession of the government and use
it to help hold up the people, this Is
using organization for a bad purpose.
cat least from the standpoint of the
fellows who are held up.) But this
IN nOWlSe proves InaL organization
(government) is malum in Sc.
The Socialists will have govern
ment, but 1t will be in fact as we'll as
in theory "a government of the peo-
pie. by the people and for the people"
Now word to that "unterrified JEFF
fersonian Democrat" F. III. Thomson.
He SHES like scared colt at what he
calls "the bureaucratic tendencies" of
the Socialist movement. Mr.. T. seems
to be frightened at every sort of or
ganization. Yet the improvements in
the machi::e ery of production and dis
tribution make organization absolutely
imperative. 1t takes a large organi-
cation to run a modern railroad and
we must choose 0f we going to
have a railroad at alb whether we
will have an organization dominated
by one man (as at presenD or whether
we will have an organization domi-
mated by all.
