THE OLD, SWEET DAYS.

4 LITTLE childhood in town,
~ A little playtime in dream;
~ A little road, a little wood.
\ A bridge above a silver stream;
The old. sweet days. the old,
sweet ways,
The sunshine and the cleaning sand,
The charm that youth around US lays,
Suffused with light of fairyland.
A little strifehood in the world,
A little toil-time in a mist:
A little share OF grief and care
Gray hills with sunset splendor
kissed;
The old, sweet days that come no more,
AS. say not soon every hand
For me they shine in dreams Of yore
Suffused with light of fairyland.

The Cool OF the Day.


The plan Of some Of the Washington
department workers to get more good
out of daylight by changing the SEIZED
ule Of the day seems to be more prac-
teal than disturbing the clock In
England it has been proposed to get
up with the daylight instead of at j
routine Of activities in the usual or
der. This would leave longer spell
Of daylight after the workday is done
The department clerks propose to get
to work earlier by the clock as it
stands. This is simple.
The worker with n hard stint knows
better than to loaf in the cool Of the
day. BY o'clock In the morning
when department Office work begins
the sun is high and the atmosphere
already warmed up about half of the
year. If the office man starts work
Mt 8 o'clock and quits at $3.50 instead
OF at 4:3O he gets that long afternoon
play spell the English clock reformers
yearn for and is in better trim for an
outing than when he Is chained to the
office grind through the hottest seven
hours of the twenty-four. 1t Is an
easy matter to upset habit and settle
It down again. But 1t will not be
easy to make the hand on the dial tell
another tale from that which the
world has lived by since clocks were
first invented.

The Disoraceful Deadlock

About three months have elapsed
since the first ballot was taken by the
Illinois general assembly for the cleo
ton of United States senator.
Under pretense of being guided by
the advisory" vote at the fall primary.
Is republican members of the house
and senate have banded themselves
together TO prevent the election OF for
mer Senator A. J. Hopkins successor.
Realizing as they do that he cannot be
elected to succeed. himself, they have
adopted deadlock and blockade meth
DDS to prevent the election OF anyone
else.
Several important and pertinent facts
have manifested themselves since this
deadlock began Jan. 10, which the
Springfield Register presents:
|. Hopkins cannot be elected.
2 During the three months ballot
ing Hopkins has lost rather than
gained strength.
3. There has been absolutely nc
popular demand for his reelection.
4. People throughout the state, and
the unprejudiced newspapers through
ont the state have agreed that the
Hopkins advisory vote last fall was
by no means representative, that Hop
kins' federal machine" showed hin
under the primary canvass while the
voters were engrossed by interest IL
the Yates-Deneen battle, which, at tina
time, overshadowed everything else
and caused the voters to forget the
United States senatorship, which vote
was merely advisory anyway, ant
Hopkins himself had declined to MAKE
pledge before the primary that M
would be bound by the result.
s. There is a demand from all sec
tions of the state for the defeat o
Hopkins now, and the election to tn
federal senate of some man more de
voted to the interests of the people
less Interested in the corporations, an,
less absorbed in the game of INA
chine politics, which Hopkins ha
played with vengeance.
6. 1t has been obvious that the grea
majority of the Hopkins supporters il
the deadlock have been under tn
, thumbs of federal Office holders or d
rected by other machine influences.

Governor Haskeil's Vindication.


The loyalty of Governor Haskell of
Oklahoma to Mr.. Bryan, and the prom
inence of Haskell at Denver, where he
appeared on the committee on resolu-
tons, made Haskell the target for
Hearst, willing to go to any length to
discredit Bryan by discrediting his
prominent supporters.
Hearst sent his men into Oklahoma
and they revived the issues which had
been threshed out i'll Haskelrs cam
paign for the democratic nomination.
for governor and in his campaign for
election. These charges were old when
Hearsts men revived them. They had
been heard by two juries of voters in
Oklahoma and had been refuted and
rejected. But they had never come
to the attention of the people of other
states, and Hearst presented them
without presenting sthe defense to
them
EX-President Roosevelt, seeing an
opportunity to discredit Bryan by dis
committee, uttered the libel that Has
kell had been involved in bribery plot
as an, agent of the Standard Oil com.
pany. Roosevelt quoted former Attor
ney General Frank S. Monnett, and
Monnett promptly declared that when
the charge involving Haskell was made
that Haskell had Immediately wired
him and had repeatedly urged him to
bring the matter into court in Some
form. so that he should be able to prove
his entire innocence. That opportunity
never was afforded him.
Haskell fought back at Hearst and
at Roosevelt, and the latter, using the
machinery of the department of Justice
in the service of personal and party
ends, inspired the indictment of Has
kell on a charge of land frauds Has
kell appeared by attorneys the other
day and moved to quash on the ground
that the indictment was drawn under
a law which did not apply to the ter
ritory of Oklahoma. The motion t,
quash was sustained and the case
thrown out OF court
An official announcement has since
been made from Washington that ST
has been decided to abandon any fur
| Their prosecutions of Governor Has
kell. That is a confession that the
government has no case against the
governor. and that it had no case. ONLY
the super-credu!ous will believe tina
Mr., Roosevelt thought he had case
when the Indictment was found Thos,
who know the ways of politics will
understand that Roosevelt had as littl,
compunction about assassinating tn,
reputation of Governor Haskell as h,
would have about crushing fly which
annoyed him.

shadow of doubt demonstrated that
Hopkins cannot win, it is planned to
further bind the Hopkins deadlOckers
together with a view of preventing the
election of Hopkins successor.
This is today denying the state the
full quota of representation in the fed
eral senate. Right now the senate at
Washington is graphing with the
Payne tariff measure and other legisla-
|tion of great Importance. Illinois is
not represented there as it should be
but it would not improve the situation
in the least to return Hopkins.
But there are among the other can
IdiGates several men who would make
liable United States senators. From the
Hist very desirable senator could be
chosen, said list including Congress
man George Edmund Foss, for whom

Shurtleff, Congressman Mckinley, Con,
