THE RED GROSS STAMP.
By Irving Sanford,

Who'll pay cent with square intent:
Red for their blood-and life is sweet:
White for the CLEAN of their winding sheet
Green for their graves-aud death, be feet
Who'll pay cent for chance to cheat :,
The great white plague of its winding sheet:
One stamp for 8 penD5-youll take how
many?
Reds for the glow of the Christmas cheer,
White Is for the peace of the brand.new year;
Green's for the brow, not for the bier;
Who'll drop penny instead Of a tear
To lessen the list in the brand-new year?

Richards May Be Candidate

Richards May BE Candidate
ssMr. Richards may be a candidate.
In fact. I think it probable he will
be, but l doubt whether his name
will be on the ticket.
II refused to let Mr.. Richards or
anyone else rule me. therefore the
enmity. He broke with Coe I. Craw-
ford for the same reason. He tried
to rule him as governor and again
as senator. but he failed, so now he
is opposed to Senator Crawford.
Crawford is a scotch-Irishman and
will not be bossed.
'As far as the coming campaign is
concerned, I do not care whether !
am reelected or not. l have tried
to give the state good government
and to make good my pledges.
George Esan. a lawyer. Of Sioux
Falls, is already a candidate. II
Richards becomes q candidate. 1t is
the plan Of my opponents to put q
'stalwart' into the race, thereby hop
ing to defeat me. I have been away
from my state for two weeks and on
that account do not know the latest
developments IN the situation"
