nation wide sensation, has not re-

Mexico and the United States.

The Los Angeles Tribune. stirred by
the intervention spirit evidently de-
veloped in that section by the posi-
bilities in lower California, expresses
itself vigorously against ''the men
whose cupidity inlpeis them &c clamor
for intervention" and declares that cit
is time the people of the United States
set their faces like flint against the
greed and avarice that are persistentIy
urging the republic into war with
Mexico-for Intervention means war"
1t is to be hoped the fears Of the
Tribune are exaggerated If not en-
entirely unfounded. The American
people have a conscience normally ac-
tive and not easily obscured. They are
not in the fighting mood Nothing in

SHAKESPEARE on sPRINGTIME

SHAKESPEARE on SPRINGTIME.
ICedar Rapids Republican,
Every vernal season brings out
poets in plenty But one must 90
lack to Shakes peare to find all their
thoughts uttered for all times. On
spring and on flowers. as on almost
first and said it better than any one
else has been able TO say ii. One can
think at once Of those beautiful lines:
"Daffodils.
That come before the swallow dares.
and take
The winds of March with beauty"
That is the quintessence OF a de-
scription Of pretty flower that comes
when the SHOWS are still lettering in
the deep holluws To take the winds
of March with beauty" is finely said.
Ard here is something still more ex-
quisite. II more exquisite anything
can be:
And winking Mary buds begin
To ope their golden eyes"
What is a prettier siu1ie Of spring,
One can but gasp and stare at such
figures of speech. And IN play that
is not much read. Loves Labor
Lost" we run across these lines,
When daisies pied and violets blue
And lady smocks all silver white,
And cuckoo buds Of yellow hue
Do paint the meadows with de-
light
After this poet who scattered these
lines almost carelessly. and certainly
promiscuousiy, thru his pages. there l:
little more that remains to be said by
the poets who come after the mas
ter. There is no apparent effort II
Shakespeare when he makes such
pretty utterances. They are mere incl
dentals in the trend Of his writer
thoughts. They come in the course O.
his varied and voluminou thoughts, a:
in the course Of nature, with all the
prodigality that nature herself shown
in the fields of God. where the flares
flowers still grow The protusion ant
the sweetness are both natural ant

them in Shakespeare he has the SAM

5000 PER ACRE LAND.

The sale OF a large farm near Nor
way, Benton county, at a little better
than 5000 per acre must be interesting
news to those who a few years ago
laughed at the thought Of Iowa land
going to that figure. This sale is only
one Of many examples of high-priced
Iowa land. There are many farms in
central Iowa which have sold at that
price. And many more will sell at that
figure. There are hundreds of thous-
aids of acres that are worth just as
much as that Benton county farm, and
before long sales at $500 will be so
numerous as TO excite no comment. Or
had we better say that the price will
soon go to more than 5000 and that
the 5000 price will be the exceptionally
low rate?

TEMPE
TIE TERMINATION
 OF LONG ILLNESS
The Death Yesterday of One of
 Tempe's Best Known Citizens

C. A. SayIor, one of the oldest and best known pioneer residents of this place. passed away at his home in Gage Addition yesterday morning after a lingering illness of nearly two years. He was suddenly taken with an attack of rheumatism at that time and since then has been confined to his bed a greater part of the time. Several times during the past year it was thought the end was at hand but each time after a hard fight he rallied. The sudden relapse came several days ago but it was not realized until that time that the end was so near.
 MT. Saylor was born in PennsyI- vania on March s, 1S40. In 1863 he was married to Anna Lichty at the place of his birth after which he and his wife moved to Illinois. Kansas was next their home state and there they remained at Sabletha where so many Tempe people have come from until their last move to Arizona in November, 1892 At that time he took up a considerable amount of land in what is now known as the Kyrene country south of town and all of that same land is now being worked by some of his children.
 The deceased is survived by six brothers and three sisters, his wife, and eleven children. Of the children, six are sons and five daughters. All but four of the daughters are now residents of this place.
 The funeral services are to be held at the Baptist church this afternoon at o'clock. At the time of writing 1t was not known whether any lodges would take part or not but as Mir SaylOr is a member of several prom inent orders here it is most likely that they will to some extent. Inter ment will be made in the Double Butte cemetery
