SERVICE OF EXPEDIENCY

Expediency, in politics and govern
ment if not in other fields, has acquired
a bad reputation. In most cases that
may be just what it deserves. As a
general proposition, principles should
govern. But this is a queer world, re-
plete with paradoxical situations.
1t might sound queer to say that eX-
pediency has stood between the taX-pay-
ers OF Texas and confiscation OF their
property, after principles had proved to
be insufficient barriers. But some such
conclusion seems to be warranted by
reliable reports from Austin. Law-mak-
ers who had opposed tax legislation, re-
gardirg the raising of additional revenue
as only a concession to the eXtravagant,
finally had to resort TO cXpedicncy as
4 means of minimizing the additional
burdens to be imposed upon the tax
payers by an administration that was
elected on pledge of economy. Instead
OF continuing to oppose all revenue bills,
they felt constrained by a sense of duty
TO their constituents to accept the least
Objectionable as a means of eliminating
the most drastic.
EXpediency commended itself also to
some members of the "tax-evcrything
element as the session entered upon its
final week. One of the revenue measures
killed" during the previous week, so
that Others might live, was the state

THE PRESENT CRISIS"

When a deed is done for Freedom, through The
broad earth's aching breast
Runs thrill of joy prophetic, trembling on from
cast TO west,
And the slave, whereer he COVERS feels the soul
within him climb
TO the awful verge of manhood, the energy sub
lime.
OF century bursts full-blossomed on the thorny
stem of Time
Through the walls of hut and palace shoots the
instantaneous throe,
When the travail of the Ages wrings carths sys-
tens to and fro;
At the girth of each new Era with recognizing
start,
Nation wildly looks at nation, standing with mute
lips apart,
And clad Truths yet mghtier man-chid leaps
beneath the Futures heart.
Backward look across the ages, and the beacon
moments see,
That like peaks of some sunk continent, jut
through Oblivions sea;
Not an car in court or market for the low fore
boding cry
OF those Crises Gods stern winnowcrs; from
whose feet earths chaff must fly;
Never show the choice momentous till the judg-
ment hath passed by.
Careless seems the great Avenger; history's pages
but record
One photographic in the darkness 'twiXt old sys-
TENS and the Word;
Yet that scaffod sways the future, and behind The
the throne
Yet that scafofld sways the future and behind the
standeth God within the shadow keeping watch
above His own.
Count me DER earth's chosen herocs,-they were
souls that stood alone,
While the men they agonized for hurled the con-
tumelious stone:
Stood serene and down the future saw the golden
beam incline
To the side of perfect justice, mastered by their
BY one mans plain truth to manhood and to Gsd's
supreme design
/ IL Al
OF legendary virtue carved upon our father S
graves,
Wotshippers of light ancestral, make the present
light n crime;
Was the Mayfolwer launched by towards, steerod
by men behind their time?
Turn those tracks toward Past or Future, that
make Plymouth Rock sublime?
They were men of present valor, stawart old leon
oclasts;
Unconvineed by or gibbct that all virtue was
the I'ast's:
But we make their truth our falsehood, thinking
that hath made us free.
