"Dewey's Day."
Just a year ago today
'Mid mighty cannons roar,
We won a victory, the like of which
Ha never been heard before.
'Twas won by noble Dewey,
Who, away in far Philippine
Lead hit men to victory.
And swept the Spaniards clean.
O, well we might be proud of him,
He is a modern &eaar
Fighting for the just and right
And won't atop for a"Ueaser."
There's not one true American,
In all this clorinua land
That would cot give one-third his worth

Other men may rise to fame
But we shall 'ere endeavor.
To let nothing stop our keeping

BaTxs Restored. Following the last
rate war of 1S'J8 between tbe Northern
overland .lines, peace declared on a
basis of e.ualatcs "all round," but the
lines between t. Paul and Chicago were
still disturbed by local troubles, and Uie
combination of rates east and west of
St. Panl made Chicago f 57.73 first class
and 47.75 second class. This last diffi
culty in the way of a complete restorat
ion of standard fares lias at last been ad
justed, and, on April 25th,thrcngh rates
to Chiogo and points west were rebuilt
to normal figures by all lines, ro that it
now costs no more to travel by way of
the Southern Pacific through California
than bv the Northern Lines, through
Vancouver, Helena or Spokane. Pion
