HIRAM'S WHISKERS.
I've lived with Hiram thirty years
rpoo this varied earth.
And walked with him the vale of tears.
And climbed the hills of mirth :
Strong storms have broken os oar claim
And gusts blowa wild aad drear.
But I have clung to Hiram's ana
And never felt a tear ;
And sever gave a frown or wv!T.
Till Hiram shaved his whiskers off
Till Hiram shaved his whiskers.
Tlioae gorgeous whiskers were my pride
What wondrous power to please !
As they did wave from side to side.
And floated on the breeze ;
"You have not loved me since tbe day
Old Whisker, left" said Hi
For when Old Whltkers moved aa ay
My husband left," said I,
" My good old htuband disappeared.
The day that Hiram shared his beard
When Hirass shaved his whUkers."
41 Von loved Old Whi-kers, Mary Ann,
Far more than you lor me."
Oid Whiskers was a haad-ome man
A you will often see.
He had a shaggy, manly air.
But yon are small and thin.
Your mouth is large, your cheeks are spare,
Yh have a peak-ed chin
And I wlU always rue the day
That good Old Whbkers moved away
When Hiram shsved his whiskers."
" You feel so bad, my MAry Ann,
And mourn Old Wh iskers so,
ru bring you back that grizzly sun,
I'U let my whiskers grow !
" Ah. those word, sound like Hiram's words,"
Said I, "no more I'U mourn,
I'U sing as gay as singing birds,
TiU Whiskers shaU return ;
Meantime I'U oearwith sluggard fate.
In joyful patience sit and wait,
e.iU HirAin grows his whiskers."
THE RlNc'oF GOLD.
Jlartin Daly had become disconragwd.
Likejmaoy another miners in the far west
be had made money snd lost it, bad
prospected for mines, found ore snd been
cheated ouf of bis rights, bad grown poor
snd ill, and had thrown himself under a
tree, careless whether he lived or died.
The great snowy mountain peaks and
the rich rerdare had lost their attraction
for him. lie had hoped snd been disap
pointed so many times that be had come
to believe himself unlucky ; that he
shoal J never possess s dollar ; that there
was neither bappineas nor home for him.
He had seen better days. His large,
dark eyes, bis broad brow, bis well
shaped mouth and chin' bespoke refine
ment in the years that were gone. He
had been well educated, had tried many
things and failed in tkem, not from lack
of energy nor from lack of judgment, but
bis fate seemed to be aa adverse one.
He had done many good acts, hod al
ways helped bis brother miners, had
tried to look on the bright side of life,
had fought manfully and been defeated
in the battle. Ha had imagined some
times that the clouds had a silver lining,
but the storms always came sooner or
later. He meditated thus as he lay under
tbe tree, and finally, more dead than
alive from want and exhaustion, fell
asleep. . -
Two men passed along under the brow
of the mountain, by the tree. They were
tall and straight, and from their dark
ckin it was easy to perceive their
Indian blood.
"The whits man is dead," said one of
the men, as be bent on his knee besiJe
the sleeper.
"Xo, there ia a twitching of the eye
lids," said the other. "He is pale and
sick. I will take him home, and Mimosa
will care for him.
The conversation carried oa in a low
tone, awskened the miner.
"Come with us, and you shall have
food and shelter," said the friendly In
dian. Scarcely able to bear bis weight Mar
tin leaned upon the arms of the two men
and soon found himself in the humble
Indian cabin.
"Mimosa, here is a stranger. Take
care of him. Red Cloud never left a
human being to die- He will get we!!,
and then we will send him back to bis
people."
A shy, pale Indian girl came forward
and did as she wss bidden. She did not
speak, but looked very pityingly out of
her fawn-like dark eyes. When Martin
bad been placed in the simple bed, she
prepared food for hwu and fed him as
thdcghhe weroachifd. Day by day
she cams and went, speaking little, but
doing gently ths things which only a
woman's hanls can do.
After a time the miner, still a young
man, gained in strength snd began once
more to bops for a successful future.
Mimosa," be said one day, "I owe my
life to you, and if I am ever rkh I will
come back and reward you."
"I shall subs you," said the girl, shyly.
But I want no money.. I shall be happy
because you are well and happy."
"I shall yet find gold. Mimosa, I used
to think I should be rich, and then I be
came poor and sick and lost heart. You
wear a ring on your finger and sometimes
a chain about your neck, both of beaten
gold. Did; the metal come from mines
near here?"
"My father gave them to me," she re
plied, and nothing more could be learn
ed from her on the subject.
"Would you care, Mimosa, if I wore
the ring until I went away? Perhaps I
can find the place where the gold came
from."
"You may wear it till yon come back
rich," she said, smiling.
Days grew into weeks, and the time
drew sear for tbe miner to say good-bye
to the girl who bad become bis comrade
as well as deliverer. Tears filled her
errs as they parted. "You will forget
Mimosa," she said,
"Xo, I will bring back the ring, and
you shall give it to the man who snakes
yon bis bride, I shall never forget Red
Cloud nor bis daughter."
Strong and hopeful again, Martin took
cp life, obtained work, and believed once
more that be should find gold. So sweet
and blessed a thing is bops, giving luster
to the eyes, and quickening the Cow of
blood along the veins !
But be missed the Indian girL The
pines on the snowy mountain peaks
whispered of her. The evenings seemed
longer than formerly ; the conversation
of ths miners less interesting. He was
earning a fair living, but of what use was
money to him, if he was to feel desolate
in heart? Mimosa was not of his race.
but she bad a lovable nature, tie re
mmrrNl that she looked sad at his
going away. He wandered if she ever
thought 'about him- II sue naa some
Indian suitor, would she not wish for the
ring agaia ?.He would like at least to
ise the swan and bia daaghter who had
set

saved his life. He would carry back the
ring. Ah ! if be knew where the gold in
it came from, perhaps be would indeed
become rich, and then who could make
him so happy as Mimosa ?
Months only increased the loneliness
in Martin's heart. He was becoming dis
couraged again. He even began to fear
that Mimosa was married, and his soul
awakened to a sense of loss. He would
go back just once, and see her, and on
bisjourneyback.be would sit fora half
hour under the tree where Red Cloud
bad found him.
"What ails Martin?" said one miner
to another. "He must be in love no
fun in him as in the old days. Going to
quit camp, be says."
After Martin had decided to go to see
Red Cloud, his heart seemed lighter. If
Mimosa were married, be could at least
show her his gratitate. And she were
not ? Well, it would be very restful to
see her once more !
He started on his journey. The full
moon was arising as he neared the old
tree, where Red Cloud had found him.
As he approached, he was startled by a
white figure. He turned aside for a mo
ment, and then went cautiously up to
the great trunk. Two dark eyes full of
tears gazed up into his eyes, at first with
a startled look, and then with a gleam of
joy and trust.
"Mimosa," he exclaimed, and clasped
the Indian girl in his arms.
"Why are you here, child, at this time
of night?"
"I came here to think of you Martin,
and the moonlight is so swee) and com
forting. The green trees and the moun
tains tell me of you."
"I have brought you back the ring.
Mimosa."
"And are you rich yet? You were to
keep it till you were rich."
"Xo, but I would be rich, perhaps, if
you would tell me where the gold in the
ring was found."
"My lather gave it to me," she replied,
quietly.
"Mimosa, would you love me if I were
rich?"
"Perhaps I should be afraid of you if
you were."
"Would you love me if I remained
poor as I am now V
"Yes, always."
"And if I became sick and could not
care for you, what then?"
"I would care for you, Martin."
"I have brought back the ring, Mimo
sa, that you may give it to the man who
shall make you his bride."
"And would you like to keep the ring,
yourself Martin?"
"Yes, dearest."
They went back to the home of Red
Cloud, happy, because promised to each
other in marriage.
After a quiet wedding. Mimosa said
one day : "Come with me, Martin, and
I will show you where- tb g'd in th
ring and the necklace was found."
Xot very far from the tree where the
miner had lain down discouraged. Mi
mosa pointed out the shining ore, the
spot known only to the few Indiana.
"Mimosa, there is a mine here ! This
gold is the outcropping of the veins. I
shall yet be rich, my darling."
"Would you surely love me as much,
Martin, if you wore rich ?"
"I would give you everything your
heart desired."
"And not go to an eastern country, and
be great, and forget Mimosa?"
"Xeverr
With a happy heart Martin Daly took
his pick to the mountains. The shining
ore opened under his touch. His claim
each dav showed more value. He bad,
indeed, become rich through the ring of
Mimosa.
Years have passed. Two thousand
dollars are taken each day from the mine.
The children of the Indian girl, educat
ed, gentle as their mother, and energetic
as their father, are in a handsome bouse.
Love in the home has kept as bright as
the gold in the mountain. Sarah K.

He made for that seat with joyous

an elderly party walked up and dropped

Sherman to the Farmers.
Senator John Sherman represented
"Republican Day" at the Ohio Stabs
Fair Sept, 27th and most nobly did he
fulfil tbe expectations of tbe thousands
who listened to him on the subject of
the tariff. There were fully 05,000 on the
grounds, and Mr. Sherman was successful
in speaking to and holding an audience
of over 5,000 against tbe attracL'ons of
the racetrack. Mt. Sherman was at bis
beet, and the comments on the outer cir
cle were not only complimentary, but the
word went around " Old John is renew
ing his youth." Mr. Sherman began at
tbe groundwork of the protective tarilT,
back in the days of Calhoun. He laid
down the following as the full text of the
Republican party and its policy :
First, To repeal all taxes on home pro
duction, except on spirits, tabacco and
beer.
Second, To levy the highest rate of
duty that will not encourage smuggling
on articles of luxury which enter into
the consumption of the rich.
Third, To place on imported articles
which competo with articles that can be
manufactured or produced in the United
Slates such a rate of duty as will secure
to American farmers and laborers fair
prices, fair wages and will induce our
people to engage in such manufacture and
protection.
Fourth, To repeal all duties on artilccs
of prime necessity which enter into the
consumption of the American people and
which cannot be produced in sufficient
quantity in this country.
Fifth. To errant to foreign nations tbe
reciprocal right of free importation into
our ports of articles we cannot produce
in return for the free introduction into
their ports of articles of American pro
duction. All of these principles, said the speaker,
are embodied in substance and detail ia
the McKinley Tariff act, which is now
the law of the land. It is this law that
is referred to in the first plank of the
Republican platform : " First, we reaffirm
our devotion to the patriotic doctrine of
protection and recognize the McKinley
bill as the ablest expression of that prin
ciple enacted in fullilment of Republican
promises, and we pledge ourselves to its
support, always having in view its im
provement as changed conditions or ex
perience may require." The Senator
continuing his speech, said :
We stand upon that as our declaration-
of faith, our creed on Xalional taxation
Xot that all the items of taxation in this
law are unchangeably correct, but that
the policy involved is right and will best
promote the interests of all sections and
all parties in our country. Our Demo
cratic friends during and siuce the wa
generally contented themselves with
voting sgainst the revenue laws proposed
by the Republican party, but having suc
ceeded in electing Mr. Cleveland Presi
dent in ISSt and a Democratic House of
Representatives, they were compelled to
formulate a different scheme of taxation,
and naturally fell back upon that in ex
istence before the war and wh:ch had
been embodied in the Confederate Con
stitution. Mr. Cleveland, belonging to
the Xew York school of politics, devoted
his annual message of December, 1537,
entirely to the discussion of the tariff
question and the recommendation of tariff
for revenue only. The result was the
framing and pasture in the House of
what is called the Mills bill, which was
defeated in the Senate. Oar Iemocratic
friends, with less frankness than the
Republican party, adopted in their re
cent State Convention in Ohio this reso
lution :
" We are opposed to all class legislation
and believe in a tariff levied for the sole
purpose of producing a revenue sufficient
to defray the legitimate expenses of the
Government economically administered
We accept the issue tendered to ns by the
Republican party on the subject of the
tariff as represented by the so-called
McKinley Tariff Act, confident that the
verdict of the people of Ohio will be re
corded against the iniquitous policy of
so-called protection championed by the
Republican party in the interests of fa
vored classes sgainst the masses."
It will be perceived that care is taken
not to mention the Mills bill, but it de
clares itself opposed to all class legislation
and none is in tbe favor of any measure
in the interest of favored clasMes against
the masses. These are mere catch
phrases. "What the resolution means,
however, is plain enough. Our Demo
cratic friends are in favor of the princi
ples and details of the Mills bill as sgainst
the McKinley bill, it is tbe fullest
authentic statement of what they call a
revenue tariff. Here, for the first time in
many years, we have a fair and square
issue between the two great parties on
the tariff laws. It is the Mills bill,
rejected by the Senate, against the Mc
Kinley bill, now the law of the hind.
What I propose now is to point out the
chief differences between these two
measures and to state why I prefer the
McKinley bill. And, first, as to ths free
list Under t'ae law prior to October 1
last there was admitted free of duty dur
ing the year ending June SO, 1S!H), arti
cles valued at f 2Gt;,103,045 out of a total
importation of 773,07112, or more than
one-third of all imported articles were
admitted free of duty, a much larger de
gree of free trade than we ever bad un
der any tariff law prior to 1873. Xearly
every article of common use that could
not be produced in the United States was
admitted free. By the McKinley act
more than fifty articles have been added
to the free list, by far the most important
of which are sugar and molasses, of
w hich we imported in 13C0 tbe value of
fJo,000,000 ; so that now under the Mc
Kinley act, nearly one-half of all the
goods imported are free from duty, and
substantially all imported artie'es that
do not compete with home production,
except articles of luxury' are free of daty.
If you favor free trade, here we have
the largest free trade ever bad in the
United States. By the Mills bill a fewer
number of artictea were added to the free
list, but among them were not sugar and
molasses ; but wool of all kinds, the im
portation of which in ISO was 105,431,
255 pounds, Talaed at over $IS,iX)0,000
were to be admitted free of all duty.
Xow, fellow-citizens, this striking con
trast between the two bills recalls to my
mind, if not to yoors, the interview I had
with the wool-growers of Ohio on the old
fair grounds here, when I was execs ng
myself for voting for a bill which, against
my wishes, reduced the duty on one
grade of wool one cent a pound, or from
twelve to eleven cents a pound. I re
member bow my Democratic friends ar
raigned me and a Democratic Legislature
proposed to censure me, and all the sheep
of Ohio were bleating their reproaches
against my perfidy, and yet now, when
the McKinley law has restored the old
duty on wool and provides new safe
guards against evasions of the duty, when
the wool tariff is made precisely as the
Ohio farmers wanted it, our Democratic
friends the same persons, I imagine
tell ns they prefer the Mills bill that
makes weol free of all duty and brings
our farmers into sharp and close compe
tition with wool-growers on the wild
plains and pampas of Australia and South
America. This may be politics, but it is
not " fa'r," as the Missourians say,
This is not all I have to say about wool.
When, this summer, the price of wool
was not as high as it was a year ago, they
said McKinley promised them it would
be higher if bis bill passed. This was
not true. He could not and did not ex
pect to control the price of wool in for
eign lands. What with the large impor
tations of wool in advance of the taking
effect of the law and the very low prices
at the source of supply, the price of wool
was lower than the farmers hoped. But
what would it have been if the Mills bill
had passed ? Wool is worth ia Canada
18 cents. It is worth in Ohio 23 centa
In competitien with Australia and South
America the difference is greater by the
addition of transportation. If our Demo
cratic friends do cot like price of wool
under the McKinley law, how would they
like it under tbe Mills bill?
Mr. Sherman expressed the opinion
that it would not be long before the
farmers in tweniy states in the Union
would be raising sugar beets, and that
manufacturers of beet sugar were doing
business in California and other States.
Referring to Major McKinley, Mr. Sher
man said :
"He is a patriotic man, for in youth he
was a soldier fighting bravely for his
conntry, and in manhood standing up for
Americans and American industries.
Every aspiaation of his public life is for
bis country, his whole country, and noth
ing but his country. In his domestic and
social relations he is sffectionate, friendly
snd social. Xo stain rests upon his
name. He is worthy to be Governor of
Ohio. But greater and far more import
ant than all bis privatetvirtues, he is the
leader and light cf a public policy that
will build up Ameeican industries, sveure
fair wages and honest pay to millions of
workingmen, prosperity to our people
and advance our country still higher in
the roll of nations."

' When the train pulled inte the wsy
station the young woman was standing
on the station platform purruundt ' by
several other young women, who were
all talking at once. The young man
stood a short distance away, holding a
big Talise.
" Hop en there, Maria !" he called out,
" Don't be all day about it."

The Friendship of a Horse.
" Talk about a dog being a man's best i
friend," said an old horse trainer to me,
" I say the best friend a man has among
tbe lower animals is the horse. Horses
will be just as affectionate and faithful as
dogs if you use them right, aad a blamed j
sight more useful. To be sure they won't i
lick your hands for kicking 'em. They've
got more spirit than that and I admire
them for it. I bad a horse that saved my
life, and that's more than aey dog ever
did for me."
"How did it happen?"
" It was ten yeara ago when I w9
a country horse doctor and used
sometimes to break ugly colts for the
farmers. My horse was one I had raised
from a colt and she knew me like one of
the family, Her name was Mo'lie. She
was a high strong animal, if she was gen
tie, and one needed ,to understand her
in order to drive her. There was a
farmer living near by who had a colt
which he wanted biokea, but the brute
was so vicious that half a deen men had
failed to do anything with him. I
thoegst I was a pretty good horseman so
I concluded one day I'd try him. I drove
up to the farm, and, as I didn't expect to
use Mollie again that afternoon, I turned
her loose in the field to roll. Then I
caught the colt. The farmer told ino he
would lead all right, so I wasn't looking
for any trouble till I tried to bit him. I
was walking along ahead of bim with the
baiter strap in my hand when the devil
got into him. Before I noticed that be
was mad he started for me, mouth open
and began 'o strike with bis frost fett
That's a trick no horse gets except from
inborn wickedness. He knocked me
down the first blow and then backed o3
a few steps and gathered uimself togeth
er. I saw he wa? going to come for me
again and I tried to crawl out of the way
when all of a sudden I hear ! hoofs com
icg from behind and Mollie came up at a
fall ran. She dashed right at the cgly
colt and, wheeling rouuJ, gave hiin both
her heels in the chops. Then she planted
herself between hiss and me and there
was the stulibornest fight you ever saw
for a few minutes. loth horses screamed
like human being", reared, struck and bit
at each other and neither would give an
inch. At iaat Mollis got the co'.t by the
neck and fairly tore a piece of Sesh out
of him. That took the nerve out of the
brute and he ran away. I was too much
hurt to get cp alone, and I bave always
said that if it hadn't been for Mollie I'd
have ber-a killed, though some fools
thought she'd have ccme to fight the
strange colt ju.t the same as if he hadn't
attacked me. I know better."

uiy huilund came hume from the work
bench and said tb carpenters h.id jri-ne
cut on a sirue. We have n't Wen kn
married, I didn't knoar anrthitig about
the meaning of "a strike." He
told me how the men would succeed,
ani how he would soon be at work strain
getting more money an 1 working fewer
hoars, so that he would hae time to
read the newspapers in tbe morning like
a business man, he said, and bow he
would get home earlier in the afternoon,
so that I would not bave to be in the
kitchen until 3 or 9 o'clock at night
It was such a pretty picture that I cried
in the fullness of my heart It seerr.s to
have been foreordained that a woman
should cry in dispair and joy as well. I
don't know why, After he had finished
telling me what the outcome would be
somebody knocked at the door. I had
jast dried my cheeks with my aron. I
answered the knock. Several etrar-
men casue in. My husband introdurexl
them as "tbe boys." They alt talked
about the outcome of the strike. They
seemed to be so happy that I went out
into the kitchen, aa 1 like a little i-y I
cried again. Then aiy husband came
out and put his arms around me and kiss
ed me, just as he used to do when we
were courting. Then Le said there was
going to be a meeting of tiie union that
night and he must go. It waj part of the
strike, he said. And be uked me if I
hadn't saved up some money in a little
bank which he had bought for me hist
Christmas. I was his Banker. How
happy I was to tell him I had gtved
something, and I went and k I it an I
opened it, and the pennies and nickles)
and dimes, arid even a few quarters, roll
ed out in my lap. I don't know ho v
much there was ; we didn't co;nt it. Il
took it, saving he might reed it at the
