eight newspapers. defeated the man
who had the active support of the
two Hearst paper. and at the least
some support from four of the remain
ing five papers.
The vote was the largest ever cast

IN LAZY DAYS.

The lazy days are creepin' up-tho
velt-footed ones,
OF murmering streams mid fom the
beams of Summers sleepy suns,
When the trees are softly signing. OF
the MINDLESS leaves are still,
And i'll paths that lead TO dreamland
you lose your way and will.
Still days and sweet days
All the world along,
But all their mystic silences
Have heart-heard notes of song.
A world of toll and dreaming, and the
lazy days must be
When, life is like river lost in IL
phantom sea;
When with the roses of sweet rest it's
quiet brow they wreathe,
And though the vistas of the day we
hear the great world breathe.
Still days and sweet days
Where sleeps dim lilies throng,
Yet all their mystic silences
Have heart-heard notes of song
