The Mountain.

Each builds his world forever, dark or
bright,
And sits within bis separate universe.
The shepherd sees in this green mountain
top
Place where his sheep may wander and
grow fat
What to the drover is this lilied pool?
A hollow for his swine to wallow In.
Gold hunters find upon this rocky peak
Nothing but lodges for their ringing
picks.
But to the poet all this soaring height
Smokes with the footsteps Of the passing
God!

Stop yer kickin' bout the times

Throw your troubles to the birds,
Git right down TO labor.

FIGHT ON UNCLE
 SAM'S BUSINESS

Buffalo. June 2.-How to stop Uncle sam rom conducting such an extensive envelope business is the problem with which the newly organized American En- velope Manufacturers association is wrestling. A large number of manufac- turers were present at the meeting today. Secretary Doris said: We are simply en- deavoring to formulate some plans for remedying the conditions which exist as "a result of the constant and continuous extension of the envelope business on the part or the government, which is selling stamped envelopes at prices which are almost ruinous to the trade. and we be- leve that this competition on the part of Uncle Sam is unfair and unjust"
 MT. Doris denied that the organization was the nucleus of a trust.
