FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH.
T) ETURNING from the civil war,
J I made a fine selection
6 Of womankind, then ran in debt
" To buy a quarter section.
Five years, and Jack and Jim bad come,
Besides two little daughters ;
Two-dollar wheat had paid our debts
And bought three other quarters.
And then the times began to change;
Wheat brought a dollar ten ;
Yet we were doing fairly well
' And saved a little then.
But wife was anxious like, and said
I "ought to seek the cause
And learn what prices had to do
With congress making laws."
Says I: "The greenback party craze
' Has brought us all this blight;
But God and our old party rule
They'll bring us through all right,
For I'm a good old party man,
A loyal G. O. P.
My greatest pride, my highest joy,
Is its success to see."
And in our papers I have read,
Which wife thought rather funny,
The trouble with the nation lay
In having too much money.
They said "The bankers know more than we
What coin should pass around,"
And bankers said "to burn three-fourths
Would make the balance sound,"
But prices fell and soon we found
The farm had ceased to pay.
We had it mortgaged once again
It seemed the only way.
The boys were nearly wild ; and while
They watched our fortunes sinking,
Would ask me every day or two :
"Why don't you do some thinking?"
"We pay our congressmen to think,"
Says I ; but Jack, says he,
"The bankers pay them NOT tl think,
And pay them more that we.
No workmen help to frame our laws
The tellers' rights to speed,
But bunkers, lawyers, trusts and rings
Make laws to serve their greed.
"This is the reason, I'm quite sure,
Our farm has ceased to pay.
The gang that you have helped elect
Have stole your toil away."
The boys are socialists ; they say
(It seems to me a crime)
"The G. O. P. is not the sane .'
As 'twas in Lincoln's time."
They say "Our Saviour neyer kneeled
Or catered to the strong.
Unlike professors now-a-days,
He tried to right the wrong.
He taught the needy, poor, oppressed ; -
It neyer came bis way
To dine and sup among the rich,
As preachers do today."
They sneer about prosperity
And say it's mostly blow ;
But then, McKinley says it's come,
And Mac had ought to know.
Mac nays that all the workingmen
Are rushed at every turn;
But Jim declares "the rings and trusts
Get nearly all they earn."
Last year our wheat brought sixty cents;
This year it's lesp, I found ;
But then, I tell the jeering boys,
The cash we get is sound I
Today I bought a keg of nails
Jack says I raved and swore
Two dollars was the price last year,
And liow they cost me four 1
I'll own I felt a little warm,
And it is my belief
That possibly I might have called
The hardware man a thief.
"Just stop and think," says Jack to me,
"How your 'sound money' fails.
It's 'sound' enough when selling wheat,
But not when buying nails I
"The savings of your life are gone,
Or nearly, I'll be blessed.
You've got 10 think and leave the gang,
Or soon they'll have the rest 1"
But they in me will always see
A loyal party link ;
My trust shall be the G. O. P.,
And I don't have to think.

on the evening before the hitter's nomi

how completely the Ohio boss domi

llanna was at his headquarters at the
Hotel Walton. He sent for Gov. Roose
velt, who of course came promptly at
call. What happened then is thus de
scribed by the Chicago Tribune corres
pondent :
"And now," said Senator llanna,
"will you, Governor Roosevelt, accept
the nomination for vice-president?
"At your hands, and under the
circumstances, I will accept it,"
replied Governor Roosevelt. "I am
will do absolutely nothing to thwart the
illegi 1 acts of this all-devouring octopus, always to act at the behest of the party,
to the contrary, clandestinely oppose i . but not at the behest of an individual."

of men have been thrown out of work,
and the farmers of the mlddlo west are
compelled to pay higher freight rates.all

The gravity of this situation cannot be
over-estimated.
KiiORNTLY, before the Industrial Con.
iiiiHsion in session at Washington, D.C.,
N. F. Thomp8on,ecretrtry of the Hunts

fierce attack upon the trade auion3,said,

Senator llanna then addressed Gov

friendly terms, the olive branch thus ex
tended was acopted by Governor Re ost
velt, and the two shook hands in the
most friendly manner.
Senator llanna then aeked Governor
Roosevelt to nnmo the mnn who should

the governor graciously told Mr. llanna
that the honor of making the selection

republican convention ,that Hanna wrote
the important planks of the platform,
and that this same man Hanna baa dur
ing the last two years made the follow
ing public declarations regarding trusts:
The English government is as good
as ours.
Large combinatons of capital have ex
isted for 200 years in England.
The great commercial success of Eng
land has been due to those same trusts.
Those' combinations known as trusts
ure not a political question at all. They
are simply and purely a business question.
The trusts have the best men in the
country at their head. I believe In their
organization.
I think the trusts will result benefici
ally to the men who work in the factories.
What harm can those trusts do the
people of this country?
The tormation of trusts is a step for
ward.
They aie not intended to increase
profits but to reduce cost.
Trusts I There's no such thing.
The story that I have defended trurts
in any of my speeches is absolutely false.
The combination of corporations is
simply the evo'ution of business; don't
know of a trust in the United States.
I say they are not trusts. If they are,
prove it.
There is not a trust left in the United
States. There never were more than
about a hall-dozen, and they all have
been dissolved and cou verted into large
corporations.
In short, in the language of the Ellicott
(Md.) Democrat :
Senator Hanna at first denied that any
trusts existed. Theu he claimed that
they were necessities. Now he asserts
that the republican party will smash
them. All of which would be somewhat
contradictory if it didn't come from the
handmaid of Duty and Destiny.
H ANNA'S TRVSt PLANK.
The following is the so called trust
plank framed at tho republican conven
tion In Philadelphia ;
"We recognise the necessity aud pro
priety of the honest co-operation of capi
tal to meet new business conditions and
especially to extend our rapidly increas
ing foreign trade, but we condemn all
conspliacies and combinations intended
to restrict business, to create monopo
lies and to limit production or to control
prices, and favor such legislation as will
effectually restrain and prevent all such
abuses, protect and promote competition
and secure the rights of producers, la
borers and all who are engaged in in
dustry and commerce."
V Hi) this plank the republican cam
paign managers intend to play upon the
credulity of the American people. The
full extent of the hypocrisy involved in it
can only be realised when we remember
that llanna was the master mind at the
and the storms and high winds that
blow in that region lashed the water in
to great waves that beat upon the base
of Mt. Hood. Until the next spirit
that guards the mountain became angry
that the water should not remain there,
and one time after a great storm he be
came very angry and began to rend the
rocks and hurl them to one side out of
the way to form a channel through
which the waters of the lake could pass.
He continued in his fury until he worked
his way through the mountain. Thus
was formed the channel of the Colum
bia river through the Cascade moun
tains This spirit that guards the moun
tain appeared to an old Indian chief and
told him that whenever we see a cloud
capping the mountaiu, as we oftimo do,
it is the presence of the spirit guard. It
is also said that in autumn before the
winter sets in his spirit can be seen at
nights walking up and down the ridges
and canons to se if everything is all
right for the winter snows. So now re
member, whenever you see the cap of
Mt. Hood you are looking upon the spir
it guard. So now we will go to our beds,

THE CONQUERED VICTORIOUS.
J
SING the hymn of the conquered,
who fell in the battle of life ;
The hymn of the wounded, the
beaten, who died overwhelmed
in the strife:
Not the jubilant song of the victors for
whom the resounding acclaim
Of nations was lifted in chorus, whose
brows wore the chaplet of fume,
But the hymn of the low and the hum
ble, the weary, the broken in
heart,
Who strove and who failed, acting
bravely a silent and desperate
part;
Whose youth had no flower in its
branches, whose hopes burned in
ashes away ;
From who-e hands slipped the prize
they had grasped at, who stood at
the dying of day
With the wieck of their lives all around
them, unpltied, unheeded, alono,
With death swooping down o'er their
failure and all but their faith over
thrown. Hold the hand that is helpless and
whisper "They only the victory
win
Who have fought the good ftV.it and
have vanquished the demon that
tempts us within ;
Who have held to their faith, not regard
ing the prize that the world holds
on high ;
Who have dared for a right cause to suf
fer, resist, tight if need be, to
die."

The Spectre of Mt. Hood.
In the year of 1891), I had an invitation
to make one of a party to climb to the
summit of Mt. liood. It was a jolly,
agreeable party consisting of a number
of friends, whom 1 had known for vears.
We had. a very pleasant drive to the
camp, where we hud to leave our horses
aud wagou. As toon as we got into
gamp, our guide, wiiose business it was
to Iook alter the interests of the camp,
built a large camp tire, h round which we
gathered, and after eating our supper
we made ourselves as comfortable as
possible sitting on camp stools around a
blazing tire high up in the mountains.
Atterchatting aud making merry until
it was drawing near bedtime, our guide
asked us if we had heard the story The
Spectre of Mt. Hood " After learning
we never had heard it, he agreed to tell
if if we would be quiet and give our at
tention. We were quiet imdantly, and
he began. The story, he says, runs tnis
way : "It is an Indian legend, away in
the dim past before the Columbia river
was the outlet for the waters east of the
Cascade mountains, all that country
thro.igh which the Columbia and its
tributaries run was a great inland sea,
