For on a table drawn beneath his

A box OF counters and a red-veined

A piece Of glass abraded by the

And six or seven shells.
A bottle with bluebells.
And two French copper coins. ranged
there with careful art,
To comfort his sad heart.
So when that night prayed
To God. I wept. and said:
"Ah, when at last we lie with tranced

Not vexing Thee in death.
And Thou remembered OF what toys

election In 1916. a gain OF eight
states over the election OF 1912 has
been made. he said. He named them
New York, Maine New Jersey,
Ohio, Montana, Nevada, West Virgin
II and Washington. He continued:
THE issue In 1914 was the tariff,
and every state where the effect OF
the Underwood bill had time to be felt
went republican. Every great manu-
featuring state and every great labor
center repudiated the democratic par
~ and voiced condemnation OF its
record since II came into full control
Of the government. The disastrous
effects Of the new tariff have not yet
been fully felt in the great agricul-
tural states OF the west but even
there the reaction against democracy
was unmIstakabe.
THE issue In 1916 will be square,
