MUSIC IN CAMP.
Two armies covered hill and plain,
Where Rappahannock's waters
Kan deeply crimsoned with the stain


nan deeply crimsoned with the stain
VI battles recent slaughters.
Inc summer clouds lay pitched like tents
IN meads OF heavenly azure;
Anu eacn dread gun Of the elements
Slept in its hid embrasure.
Inc breeze so softly blew, it made
NO forest leaf to CULVER,
ana the smoke Of the random cannonade
Rolled slowly from the river.
ana now' where circling hills looked down
win cannon grimly planted,
yer llstless camp and silent town
The golden sunset slanted.
When on the fervid air there came
straln-now rich, now tender.
The music seemed itself afame
With days departing splendor,
"A FEDERAL band, which, eve and morn
Played measures brave and nimh,e
Had just struck up, with flute and horn
And lively clash OF cymbal
Down focked the soldiers to the banks
I'LL, margtned by the pebbles.
One wooded shore was blue with ..Yan,xs,,
And one was gray with "Rebels."
linen all was still, and then the band.
With movement light and tricksy,
MADE stream and forest, hill and strand.
ReVerberate with Dixie"
Inc conscious stream with FURNISHED glow
Slipped proudly DER Its pebbles,
but thrilled throughout it's deepest flow
With yelling Of the Rebels.
Again pause and then again
The trumpet pealed sonorous.
And yankee Doodle" was the strain
TO which the shores gave chorus.
The laughing ripple shoreward flew
To kiss the shining pebbles;
Loud shrieked the sWarming boys in blue
Defiance to the Rebels
And yet once more the bugles sang
Above the stormy riot;
NO shout upon the evening rang.
There reigned holy quiet
The sad, slow stream it's noiseless food
Poured DER the glistening pebbles:
And silent now the Yankees stood.
And silent stood the Rebels
No unresponsive soul had heard
That plaintive notes appealing,
so deeply Home. Sweet Home" had stirred
The hidden founts of feeling.
Or Blue or Gray, the soldier sees.
AS by the wand of fairy,
The cottage meath the live oak trees
The cabin by the prairie
Or cold or warm, his native skies
Bend in their beauty O. er him:
seen through the tear-mist in his eyes.
His loved ones stand before him.
AS fades the iris after rain
In Aprils fearful weather,
The vision vanished, as the strain
And daylight died together
But memory walked by music's art,
Expressed in simplest numbers,
Subdued the sternest Yankees heart.
Made light the Rebels slumbers.
And fair the form OF Music shines.
That bright, celestial creature,
Who STILL mid wars embattled lines
Gave this one touch Of Nature

never been equaled by any man in
public life in Minnesota. Mr.. Jacob
son has been working for the best
interests OF the people and that is his
platform. And that is the reason why

distinct loss to the people. It is up to
the voters to protect their own inter-

With the Common People.
jacobson is unquestionably the
strongest candidate for the republican
nomination for governor in the field
thus far. He is with the common
people, and it is refreshing to note
that the common people are beginning
to realize that they can have anything
they want in the political line. If we
must have a republican governor, by
all means let it be Mr.. Jacobson
Sloley County Independent.
!. -.
No Honest Man Doubts His Integrity.
But Jake's popularity among the
people is broadcast all over the state.
The people will trust him because he
has been weighed in the balance of
public favor and found to be fully
sixteen ounces to the avoirdupois
pound. His political record has built
up an unassailable reputation, and no
timber trespassing taunts" or Gin
terest' innuendo will ever cause one
single honest republican in Minnesota
to waver or doubt his integrity. Rush
City Post.
Always on the Right Side.
An up-country paper wants Jake
jacobson to define his "position. :"
Jake's position on all questions per-
tanning to the welfare of the people of
Minnesota was established years ago
he is always on the side of right and
justice, and actions speak louder than
campaign "guff" or ''platforms"
gotten up merely to catch the voter for
the time being, but means nothing
after election. With Jake jacobson
for governor the party would not have
to make excuses.-Heron Lake News.
+ -.
Protestations do Not Amount to Much.
Some mems honesty of purpose need
the cover removed so as to reveal
what they actually stand for. Perhaps
an iron-clad affidavit would be none
too binding. In fact Mr.. Young's
protestations of honesty of purpose
and his demand to know just where
Jake stands, reminds US of Doc
Bixby's estimate of one of Billy Sun
days sermons. Summed up, it
amounts to this: "I'm christian!
What-the-hell-are-you?" It may be
necessary for Mr.. Young to iterate
and reiterate just how and for what he
stands, and perhaps he might add to
it all "1'm a republican," If he had
q record that entitled him to the re-
publican nomination for governor, it
doesn't strike us that any such pro-
testations of honesty of purpose
would be necessary. It is not at all
necessary on the part of Jake. The
people know him; know his honesty,
integrity and ability. They trust him.
They know just where he stood, stands
and will continue to stand.-Bricely
Sentinel.

The Way to Foil the Interests.

Ii Minnesota had a direct primary
law to select candidates for state
offices, J. F. jacobson would be the
republican candidate for governor.
Not having the direct primary law,
the next best thing is for republicans
to attend the caucuses and select
delegates who will support the man of
their choice. One difficulty in nomi-
mating Jacobson is that he nor his
friends have any campaign fund,
while the interests opposed to him are
willing to spend many thousands of
dollars to defeat him, and they are
working quietly to get control of dele
cations, without arousing suspicion.
The way to meet this kind of insidious
warfare is for the voters to take an
active interest, and the place to exer-
else their rights is at the caucuses.
1t will do little good to indulge in
denunciations after the state con-
vention has put ticket in the field,
and certainly republicans want to
nominate a winner. With jacobson
they would have a man who has done
things for the benefit of the people,
and who has fought fairly and fear
lessly for good laws and a square
deal.-Journal Press.

The steed Will Hail from Lac qui Parle.
The republicans are likely to nomi-

Judge Him bv His Record,

The Ogilvie Sentinel thinks that
Jacobson should come out with a
statement as to whether or not he has
fallen from grace. We would ask
Brother Wilcox if he believes the past
record of Mr.. jacobson in public SER
vice would at any time allow suspicion
of his betrayal of public trust. Poll
ticians are usually judged by their
past records. Mora Times.

COTTON MARKET LOST
PREVIOUS DAYS GAINS
Limited Transactions il
Better Grades Locally.

The cotton market was heavy yes
terday, the gains of the previous day
being more than swept away, thus full
filling the warning that the rise was
resting on narrow foundation. The
opening was at small losses as COM
pared with the close for the day be-
fore. A little squirt followed at New
York, but New Orleans could not
reach the initial figures again during
the session Liverpool began as ex-
pected but slumped badly towards the
close, which had a disastrous effect on
the American markets. Trading was
at no time animated. The greatest
weakness was shown in the after
noon After the close at New York
the New Orleans market recovered
several points
The New York market opened 4
to points lower, but soon reached a
level around the last prices for Tues
day. A sagging set in which was bro
ken only by brief rallies to the close
which was 10 to 81 points below the
last for the day before. Active posi-
lions landed below the IL cent mark
again. Spot prices were marked down
Is points. New Orleans opened 1 to
2 points down and quickly dropped
lower. Small recoveries took place
at times, but the close was steady, II
to IS points net lower for the day
Spot quotations were reduced Lice.
Liverpool opened to points high
er, and hung around this level for the
greater part of the session. Towards
the close the market ran off sharp
ly, the last being 8 to points lower
as compared with the close for Tues
day. Spot prices were advanced
points, the sales being 1000 bales.
The English market is due points
down this morning.
Locally trading was light, but a few
bales of better grades were disposed
of on a basis of II IL cents for good
middling. The demand was good at
the price, but holders of choice cot
ton were sitting firmly on the lid and
there was nothing doing with them.
Poor grades were obtainable, but buy
ers passed them up Quotations are
unchanged from Tuesday.
