TdE Fnouo FATHER.

Wrapped up in him? Well. l should say!
We talk about him the livelong day.
We're as proud of him, too, as we can De-
For never a brighter child was known;
He knows so much for babe of three
Who wouldn't love him has heart OF
stone.
Some men with children are bores, 1
know,
But ours is a wonderful child, and 50
! feel I've a right
At times to recite
The remarkable things
He says each night.
He keeps us laughing the whole day long:
He has learned to sing a comic song.
And the things he says are so quaint ana
old
And the things he does-if ! talked all
day
one-haIf of his brightness would be un-
told
/ could talk a week and have more to
say.
He really possesses remarkable powers,
And that isn't said because he's ours
I'm not Dragging moi
know it's SO,
For the doctor told me,
And he should know.
He knows so much for a child of three:
Wherever he learned il all puzzles me.
We have to hold him back for fear
He'll get brain fever. he is so bright
He grows more wonderful every year.
Most difficult pieces he can reclte.
And / don't say this in a boasting way
l merely repeat what our friends all say.
Every word is true
That / tell to you.
Most wonderful things
Can our baby do.

AMEs HAS BITTER
WORDS FOR EX-GOV.
YARMOUTH
SAYS MAN WHO REFUSES TO SIT
with coIoREo DELEGATES IN
CONVENTION IS UNDER osLIoA-
TON TO NEGROES.

DR.. James w. Ames. leader among
the local colored community and al
ternate delegate 10 the national Re
publican convention. does not Wow
with alarm the row before the national
committee over seating colored dele
cations from southern states.
This man Yarmouth, OF Louisiana,
who made such a protest against sit
ting with colored delegates. Is car
pet-bagger OF the worst type says
Ames. He came down 10 the south
in bad shape financially after the war
and was elected governor by the votes
of the freedmen. His suit OF clothes
that he wore for the inaugural was
given him by money collected from
the colored churches.
Nov he is rich from holding Jobs
for 40 years and Is too proud 10 sit
with eolored people. That is the sort
OF men who have made the trouble IN
the south. They cannot deliver any
votes themselves, but they make
row at convention time.
The matter OF seating southern
delegates will not make any difference
with the colored votes but the
Brownsville incident is still cause OF
difficulty. Senator Foraker can
straighten that out and think he will
do so when the time comes.
THE colored votes in New York.
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois count for
something and might be enough to
swing the election, IL il is close. in
those states Ii Is true that the col
ored men get more recognition in the
south, where their votes do not count,
and not in the north. where they
amount TO something in the result"
DR.. Ames was born in Louisiana but
came to Michigan a great many years
ago. He is a former member OF the
state house OF representatives.
