Gazing into the pellucid waters below,
Gods evening lamp and brightly it shone,
Warming my sad heart by it's ethereal glow.
@, glorious moon; O. scene sublime and rare,
Remain as beacon in my life's darkened night,
Dspelling onlinous clouds of despair
From my saddened heart by your glorious sesrchlght
Peaceful river, flowing with euphonc sound;
motive power to set to music fe's song;
With waves glistening bright as onward you bound,
o, do thou wash from my heart all sembance of wrong

New York, Oct. 24.-Muddled as
hardly ever before in history, the
presidential campaign entered its last
two weeks today. Both Democratic
and Republican headquarters, of
course, claim victory. but it is pri-
vately admitted at Republican head
quarters that the outcome will lie
very close. Hughes himself admits it
may be extremely close. The Demo-
cratic leaders are but little more SAN
guine, President Wilson, however, is
confident of his reelection.
1t is admitted by both sides that
the unbranded voters" for the first
time in the history of the country
actually hold the decision in their
hands. To an impartial onloo,ser the
situation today favors Wilson. Both
sides called their reserves into action
today and from every cross roads in
the country the voices Of spellbipders
are being heard.
