Where Mother Angels Sin


1t never came from soul on earth,
That melody so soft and sweet,
The little song dear mothers sing
To hush their babies low to sleep.
1t is not night if thou be near

Close to my heart, my baby. dear,
l want thee, l want thee.

1t never came from any place,
But on shining white wing,
Thru the white gate from heavens land
Where mother angels softly sing.
Dear little rose from Paradise,

Mutme. Is watching. close thine eyes,
I want thee. want thee.

This is a time to gulf "cutting" your
neighbours corner. The neighbor very
likely has an idea of raising nice green
grass in that corner this spring and
summer. and If we all keep on step
ping on the soft soil and killing the
grass, there won't be very much green
stuff to delight the eye Of the passerby
and please the neigbbor. So let's all
stay on the walk. Keep off that grass

Republican papers that think there
will be a lot of democratic mourners
because of the attitude taken by the
party on temperance are likely to be
mistaken" says the Onawa Democrats.
For fifteen years the democratic party
has been moving steadily from the sa-
loon influence. The action Of the
democrats in the last legislature should
have been sufficiently to teach those
newspapers that all righteousness and
temperance is not the stock Of any one
party"

The Cane Crop

La. Planter.
The weather has been generally
dry and hot since the torrential
rains of the latter part of May and
opportunity has thus been given to
the planters to work their crops
ard keep down the grass. The
value OF The dry weather following
the rain can hardly be overcast
mated, especially to those planters
who are short of teams and equip
ment. During the latter part OF
this week there was another rain
fall throughout parts of the sugar
district, but it was of limited eX-
tent.
The planting of peas has been
carried on to a finish and we can
only repeat our previous good news
to the effect that the crop condi-
tons throughout all of the cane
growing parishes in Louisiana are
extremely excellent.
