Tho Old Oaken Bucket Has Nothing
On This.
Editor The Citizen:
How dear to my heart was that
ecstatic moment
When I found that a dollar I'd won
by my kick!
Not a full-llowlng purse of coins
earned by hard labor
Could fill me with joy like that
dollar won aulck.
How ardent I seized it, with hands
Impecunious,
As it to the depths of my empty
purse fell!
And soon dollar bargains in stores
I was hunting,
Tight clasping that kick prize my
purso liked so well.
The nice brand new dollar, the Kick
Contest dollar,
Tho Citizen dollar that to my lot
fell.
Respectfully yours,
"HOPE."
Box 547.
P. S. Many thanks for dollar
sent. Rest assured 'twill soon he

WHAT DIRECT LEGISLATION
MEANS.
Direct legislation means that tho
people may, over the heads of the
Legislature if necessary, initiate good
laws, reject bad laws, or recall an
unfaithful or Incompetent public of
ficer. Under the Initiative, a constitu
tional amendment or a legislative
measure may be proposed directly,
on petition signed by eight per cent,
of tho voters of Oregon.
Under the referendum, nny meas
ure passed by the Legislature may
be, and on petition signed by live per
cent, of the voters must be, submitted
to popular vote before it can become
a law.
Under tho direct primary system,
the nomination of candidates for pub
lic oillce is made by direct popular
vote; names being placed on the
nominating ballot by petition.
Under the recall, any unsatisfac
tory public servant may be voted Out
of ofllce at any time by a special elec
tion called on petition, signed by
twenty-five per cent, of the voters
qualllled to vote on the question.
Under proportioned representation
(which awaits an enabling act) the
Legislature Is elected from the state
at large instead of from single dis
tricts, thus insuring each party a
representation according to its true
numerical strength in the state.
The corrupt-practices act, among
other provisions, limits each candi
date's election expenses to one-fourth
of his salary. It provides that paid
advertising matter in the newspapers
must be designated as such nnd bear
the name of Its author. The state
publishes a pamphlet containing the
text of each question to be submitted,
with such arguments as those inter
ested In any measure may choose to
have inserted, at the rate of eighty
dollars a page. A copy of this is
mailed to every voter in the state.
The local option tax amendment
gives each county the privilege of
raising its revenue from any subject
of taxation that It sees fit to desig
nate, under such general laws as the
Legislature mny enact.

Forman's tree that Is opening.' It
scents all around. I think every
thing of It.
"it tnKes half an hour for the
flowers to open. They stay open un
til tomorrow morning. Just as soon
as the Sun gets up, they commence
to close. They don't like the Sun."
Mrs. Forman counted slxty-nino
buds on the tree. She was surprised
that they were in bloom so early
this year.
"They generally open about tho
first of June," she said. "Probably
they're earlier this year because we
didn't have any frost. They'll last
a week or two.
"Later on the leaves will fall and
beautiful buds will come. They're
just as red as lire. Just as soon na
the frost touches them In the Fall
they commence to turn."
THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.
In the spring of 18G7 the women of
Columbus, Mississippi, strewed with
flowers the graves of Federal and
Confederate soldiers, burled on the
battlefield near thnt town. The act
Inspired Francis Miles Finch, an As
sociate Justice of the Court of Ap
peals of New York to write the im
mortal poem given below.
By the flow of the inland river,
AVhence the fleets of Iron have fled,
AVhere the blades of the grave-gras3
quiver,
Asleep are the ranks of the dead:
Under the sod, and the dew,
AValtlng the judgment day
Under the one, the Blue;
Under the other, the Gray.
These, in the roblngs of glory,
Those in the gloom of defeat,
Each, with the battle-blood gory,
In the dusk of Eternity meet:
Under the sod, and the dew,
AVaiting the Judgment day
Under the laurel, the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence of sorrowful hours
The desolate mourners go,
Lovingly laden with flowers,
Alike for the friend and the foe.
Under the sod and the dew,
AValtlng the judgment day
Under the roses the Blue;
Under the lilies, the Gray.
So with an equal splendor,
The morning sun rays fall.
With a touch, Impartially tender,
On tho blossoms blooming for ail
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Under the roses the Blue;
Under the lilies, the Gray.
So with an equal splendor,
The morning sun rays fall.
AVlth a touch, impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all:
Under the sod and tho dew,
AVaiting the judgment day
Broidered witli gold, the Blue;
Mellowed with gold, the Gray.
So, when the summer calleth,
On forest, and fields of grain,
AVlth an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip of tho rain
Under the sod and the dew,
AVaiting the judgment day
AVet with the rain, the Blue,
AAret with the rain, the Gray.
Sadly, but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done;
In the storms of the years that are
fading
No braver battle was won
Under the sod and the dew,
AVaiting the judgment day;
Under the blossoms, tho Blue,
Under the garlands, tho Gray.
No more shall the war cry sover,
Or the winding rivers be red;
They banish our anger forever
AVhen they laurel the graves of
our dead:
Under the sod and the dew,
AVaiting the judgment day;
Love and tears for the Blue,
Tears and love for the Gray.
F. M. FINCH.
