Knowing how weak ! am;
Grant Thy sustaining arm,
Lead me, l pray.
More Of Thy love ia have.
Nearer to Thee would live.
Earnest heart service give
Day after day.
In the straight, narrow path.
Thou bidst me walk by faith,
O grant the grace that hath
Aided Away.

Nothing but clouds can see.
Strengthen my trust In Thee,
Let me not stray.
When comes that final night.
Ere faith Is changed to sight,
Be Thou the perfect light.
Leading to day.

THE ACE OF GRAFT

Graft on the right of US, graft on
the left of US! The grafters are
busy everywhere. Yes, but we
have also our soldiers of the CON-
mon good, our tribunes of the truth,
our conscripts of the social con-
science-men who dare to rip the
mask from the traitors and to voice
the sacred rights of the people.
These men, with their stern sense
OF righteousness, are the hope of
the nation. When the people are
10 longer stirred by their cries of
protest and prophecy, the reign of
the rogues will be complete.
When the voices of the tribunes
cease, the Republic will perish
We might call the present time
the Airship Era or the North Pole
Era. But let US call it the Age of
Graft; for this nails the name to
the gravest fact in our national
life. For never before-not even
when the mask was torn from the
old piratical Erie Triumvirate
(Gould, Fisk, and Tweed,) has
there been such forced show
down of the packed cards of
villainy. Edwin Markham in

PROPHECY

La Follstte's is requested by q
reader on the Pacific Coast to re-
print "those prophetic words utter.
ed by Senator La Toilette in the
Senate chamber when Aldrich, **s
Hale and the others retired to the
the cloak rooms" during the course
of his speech. In the Congress
sional Record for April 10, 1906,
the following passage occurs in
Senator La Follette's speech on
the railroad bill:
"Mr. President, 1 pause in my
remarks to say this. 1 cannot be
wholly Indifferent to the facts
that Senators by their absence at
this time indicate their want of
interest in what 1 may have to say
upon this subject. The public is
interested. Unless this important
question is rightly settled, seats
now temporarily vacant may be
permanently vacated by those who
have the right to occupy them at
this time"
A similar note Of warning to the
System Senators was struck by
Senator La Toilette during the
debate on the Payne. Aldrich tariff
bill a year ago, when he said:
when l began this fight in this
chamber four years ago in behalf
of the public interests and against
the forces of special privilege, 1
stood alone as Republican Senat-
or. Now there are ten of US en-
gagged in the same fight. l warn
you that if you refuse to consider
every proposition advanced in be-
half of the public and carry out
your determination to make this
tariff Legislation but the instru-
ment by which special interests
may, through special privilege, en-
rich themselves by unjust exactions
from the public. the public will
hold you responsible and prove its
resentment as certainly as elections
are held"

Senator Deliver left quite q
little estate, the greater part of
which is the old farm of Governor
Carpenter, which he bought Just
ahead Of the boom in Iowa lands
for $50 an acre mainly as favor
to the aged governor, whose de-
clining years were clouded some
what by financial embarrassments
The $50 acres were bought for
$l4, 600 and the senator began lee
turing on the Chautauqua plat
form mainly for the purpose of
paying off the debt on this land.
This farm is appraised at $4,000.
The senator had made more money
in that one transaction, that was
not accounted particularly judici-
Gus when he made it, than he had
saved in all his public career.

HARD TIMES

James j. Hill predicts hard
times. 1t is no great stunt in
prophecy to predict that which al
ready is; but Mr.. Hill borders on
the mysterious. He says that
productive enterprises are not con.
templated by investors, and that
"this means that those who have
nothing to sell but their time will
be without employment" But
what else but their time-which
means their work, of COURSE
what else but this has any one to
sell? Accumulated t a C tories
Machinery Clothing in some
quantityP Food in little quantity
Oh, yes; but none of these could
last long, if not repaired, or replac.
ed, and used-by men with only
their time to sell. Let all work
stop today, and We should begin
dying by thousands tomorrow
Why is it, then. that those with
only their time to sell should fea,
unemployment? Can't Mr.. Hill
unmystify his mystery? Perhaps
he thinks he has done so by deny
ing having made that dolefu
prophecy. The Public.
