Crossing the Bar.

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of
the bar,
When put out to sea.
But such tide as moving seems
asleep.
Too full of sound and foam,
When thot which drew from out
the boundless deep,
Turns again home
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of
farewell,
When | EN- bark.
For thrc' from out our bourne of

The Root of All Evil"

Said John Mabray. a swindler, as
the prison gates closed behind him,
two years ago: Il have only one
regret now: That the men who tried
to beat my game are not in here
with me- They were just as crook
ed. They had graft in their white
hearts when they fell for it re-
spectacle business men and church
members and honest farmers and
worthy capitalists willing to sneak
a few thousands if no one caught
them. I'd be glad to serve an extra
two years to have some of them
here with me"
They were Mabrays only hard
words. When he entered the pris-
on his record was written in a big
book by a gray-haired man who
had been a banker in an eastern
city, a sad-faced man whose eyes
were dull The magazine and news
paper the warden let him have
were handed him by an aged man,
weak under the burden of years
and remorse another eX-banker.
His picture was taken by a man
by a man who had defrauded friends
and associates in his home town.

mission to shake hands with him to
say goodbye.

ldr said. 1T was money that got

The People Still Pay the Bills.

1t seems that the public should
stop standing for the policy that
the textile mill owners of the East
have so openly adopted. The pub
lished reports of the corporations
running the mills show that they
have been making enormous profits
and that they were well. able to
grant the advances made to the en-
ployes, but they do not propose to
do anything of the kind. They are
are going to transfer the cost to the
general pnblic and the hard work
ing people of the country will have
to pay the advance in wages that
have been made aud the corpora
tons will continue to distribute to
the owners the same enormous
dividends.
The remark is frequently heard
1T seems that we are helpless" but
that is not true at all. The people
can stop that sort of thing at the
next election. These men have
formed a monopoly so that they
can raise prices, within certain linn
its, whenever they WISH and that
monopoly is made possible by the
tariff. The way to remedy the
wrong is to elect a Democratic
president to assist the present lower
house that will lower the tariff sc
that competition may be restored
and the monopoly destroyed,
The next thing, if the tariff re-
mains, will be a working combina
ton between the mill owners anC
employees, something like that which
is charged between the engineer,
and railroads. Such a combination
has been promised for the las
twenty years, but the monopolist'
have not kept faith with the labor
er. 1t was always promised that i
the tariff was raised wages would
be raised, the wage worker has vot
ed for tariffs on that promise anc
the general public has paid the bill
in high prices. Now that labor i,
rebelling on account of broker
promises, perhaps some agreement
can be reached. Where will the
general public be then? Tariff.

Early SIGNS.

From out the misty night
A sound of moving armies
On-sweeping in their might;
The river ice is drifting
Beneath their northward fight.

From out the morning sky.
Or see his wings atwinkle
That with the azure vie:
No other bird more welcome,
No more prophetic cry.

Her couriers fill the air,
Each morn are new arrivals
Each night her ways prepare:

Her foot is on the stair.

others, not so experienced in the
work OF the various offices do not
deserve so much pay as the older
clerks. For this reason and because
the board feels that the reductions,
il any. should be made by the de-
partmental heads and not by the
board, they have directed the reso-
luton to the county officials, asking
them to make such reductions in
force and salaries as are practical,
the members said Wednesday.
The plan is to have the county Of
ficials formally discharge all their
employees, the order taking effect All
gust first. Then these clerks are
to be hired over again, under a new
agreement, their salaries to be fixed
by the county officials in conference
with the board. Although no esti-
mate has been made of the amount
of money that can be saved by this
action, it is believed that quite a
bit of money can be saved for the
taxpayers.
The resolutions will be sent to the
county officials today accompanied
by a letter from the board explain
ing the desires of that body and
asking all the departmental heads to
meet in conference with the board
some day early in the week for the
purpose of discussing what savings
can be made.
