GONE ONWARD
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

Gone onward to that better land,
Her presence still is near;
Her voice still echoes in our soul;
We have no doubt or fear.
The beams of light fall pleasantly
On yonder hill and dale;
Her anchor cast forever now,
Within the heavenly vale.
There is no death,-what seems to be,
Is another life more beautiful and
grand,
In yonder city fair and bright,
And just beyond the strand.
There is no death,-just going home
To Fathers house on high;
Waiting our coming over there,
Beyond the starry sky.
We will meet and be together,
Where partings are no more;
And sing the old songs over;
No storms ever break upon that
shore.

George w. Norris, who charged there

challenged by Henry Root Stern to-

Stern, former treasurer of the New
York State Republican Committee and
alternate at large to the convention,
telegraphed the challenge to the Ne
braska Senator 1t was made public
at State headquarters
Who were the 'octopus-hke leaders
hidden behind the smoke screen of the
Convention'?" Stern asked why not
be man enough to come out and name
them?
"Borah did, by way of pre- -conven-
tion prophecy, but not since the con-
vention has he dared to repeat the
charge, and this was because he was
present in Cleveland"
Stern, whose telegram followed an
address that Norris broadcast last
night, also asked. Where we're you
during the recent assemblage in Cleve-
land? Why did you not appear
among us and give us the benefit of
your great talent and your high in
f1uence?"
The communication continued,
"When you laShed unnamed leaders
for rejoicing over the Supreme Court
decision voiding the New York mini
mum wage law, did you say a word
about Gov. Landons courageous and
specific statement that if such a
law could not be revised constitu-
tionally he would press for consti-
tutional amendments"
Stern generally described the Nor
fis speech as unfair" and said it
was the voice of Norris but the words
were those of Farley or Nicholson"
