Autumn.

From fhe EveninG Public Ledger.
The vim In the air OF autumn.
The blue In the vapor dome,
The laden hive In tho orchard.
The honey and bursting comb:
The straining sides of the pressed.
The wine and the woodland breath,
And some people call Il autumn
And some people cali II death.
The@silver mist In the lowland,
The bronZen hill and the glade;
The squirrels storing their harvest
The time when the migrants trade.
The star In the crimson twilight,
The wales IN their gayest clad,
And some people call IL autumn
And some call the autumn sad
The leaves that carpet the woodland, ,
The great brown oaks overhead,
The open burrs and the acorns,
The gold and blotches OF red
And all on the fields and roadsides,
The aster and goldenrod.
And some people call II autumn
And some people call It God.

it's hard upon seven; you must step

The Inns Of Court still retain
something Of the atmosphere Of Dick
EMS, but many of his landmarks are
rapidly disappearing. The news OF
the sale OF Clifford's Inn recently led
the Telegraph to remind It's readers
that little is really left of the London

lived as q reporter, where he wrote

wick Papers" is buried beneath the

company. The Inns of Chancery.

Cooks court, all Of which were so fire.
quently referred to In BLEAK House"
have either disappeared or undergone
a complete change since the novelist's
time. With them too have gone the
Snagsbys, the law stationers and the
law writer's. Curiously enough there
are still many reminders in the Inns
of the resldeQce there of CHARLES
LAME and OF the visits Of ScoTT. COLE
RIDGE and SoUrHEY, while Staples Inn
where DR.. JOHNSON wrote his cheer
full little book "Rasselas," Is practi.
cally untouched by time.
The house which was DICKENS's
childhood home and which stands at
ID Johnson street, Somers Town,
is in the line OF the march OF I'M
provement and Is in danger of being
destroyed The Times says that the
name OF DICKENs's father appears on
an old tax book as the tenant Of the
place for four years. 1t was in part OF
these years that young CHARLES led

terward to become that of David Cop

also know where Mr.. Micawber lived.
MY address," he said, ''is Windsor
Terrace. City road. +, In short, live

cludes the Times, that it was In this
house In johnson street that they all
lived, Mr.. and Mrs. Master and Miss
Micawber and the twins and the Orf-
ling and David Copperfield, and on
this very door poor Mrs. Micawber
put up her brass plate as to the board
ing esta ablishment which no young
ladies ever attended" An effort Is
being ma de to save the house from
the wreckers and to turn it into free
library for children.
The Telegraph, lamenting the dis.
appearance Of SO many Of London's
literary landmarks, says: "And If we
would cherish for ourselves and those
who come after us some notion OF the
life Of the past, these minor shrines
of history and literature we should
ienlously preserve" So New York Is
not the only vandal that is charged
with destroying to-day what II built
yesterday and with wiping out the
past so completely that not even q
trace or n reminder Of It Is left.

The Pause.

Like lucky fisherman with shoulder rope
Dragging to shore his seething net,
The tall street drags a traffic chain un-
cracking.
The swaying links. each with cool sun.

Grow taut or Telescope
And drip gray spume.
TIL tower flashlights glow. and all the
links pause. stacking

Above broad and glistening river,
So gliding lido and cleaning reeds give
pause a-quiver.

SUNDAY. NOVEMBER I. 1890.
Beating the Wild Men at the Polls.


Since 1912 the political and social
institutions of the American Republic
have been under continuous assault
from small but noisy coterie Of men
and women ranging from the unim-
portant parlor Bolsheviki to the mur-
derers like the conspirators who caused
the Wall street explosion.
Physical assaults on conspicuous
and useful citizens In public office and
I'm private life were numerous. Printed
and spoken indictments to rebellion
were common. There was so much
"red" literature that many persons
feared serious development Of an
archical sentiment. The campaign of
disorder was so richly endowed that
I'm some quarters 1t was regarded
as an actual menace to the peace OF
the community. 1t drew strength
from abroad and from fools at home.
It enlisted the aid of the malicious,
the disappointed, the knavish.
1t was freely predicted that this
aggregation Of malice, failure and
greed would cut a big figure in the
election. 1t was going to upset the
candidates who did not promise to
set free the criminal violators of war
legislation calling themselves 'politi-
cal prisoners" 1t was going to pun
ish the patriotic men and organization
which excluded the forsworn Social
lists from the Assembly. Il was going
to make the Non-Partisan League su-
preme over half the West this year,
all the West next year, capture Con-
gress In 1922 and sweep the Govern
ment In 1924. 1t was going to penal
ize sanity and put insanity In com.
mand everywhere.
Not one of these prophecies was full.
filled at the election.
The Socialist vote, 80 far as 1t has
been complied, compared unfavorably,
from q Socialist point of view, with
the Socialist vote cast for HILLQUIT
for Mayor In 1917 and for DEBs for
President In 1912. The Non-Partisan
League won no victories OF particular
moment and lost important advan-
tages 1t possessed when the campaign
opened. The Farmer-Labor party was
joke at the polls Three of the
Socialists who were excluded from
the Assembly were beaten In their
districts. Socialist strength shows no
increase In this department. BERGER
Of Milwaukee, the bell wether of So
cialism, was beaten where he thought
he was invlncible.
Anarchists and Communists called
for an election day strike, and urgei
citizens not to vote. Citizens voted
enthusia stically. sometimes under
most adverse conditions, and nobody
struck.
In short. the election showed up the
wild men and wild women, the I. W.
W., the radical Socialists, the bomb
throwers, their pals the parlor Boil
sh.vik,, To- fsrt they are: an lncon.
sooua,,,1f ,,,,.- scrs"ta NOT worth

imported saffron fall under suspi-
