Little Clare PooL
Bora Oot. let 18117—Died Oct, 28th
1891. The burial rites have been per
formed, the funeral songs have b-en
sung, and floral offerings from loving
bands have been lavished upon the last
resting place of little Clara Pool. Yet
I would lay one more wreath upon the
fair, sweet child.
No lengthened sojourn was allotted
her here. Beneath the sun and stars of
our beautiful southern Sky, ber life was
brief,hut it was a life of sunshine, re'
E late with brightness, affection, and
>v«. In her baby way ahe gathered all
life’s blossoms. With laughing lips
and still wore laughice eyes, four pre
cious years she slums like a light about
the lives of loved ones. When these
years had flown by with golden swift
ness, He, who ages ago suffered little
children to come unto Him, called her
to Himself. Pure, beautiful ami hap
py, she lay down to pleasant dreams.
We shall mins he” sweet voice and gen
tle caresses We sbsll wonder why the
"tall,beautiful angels” took her away,
whv she did not live to illustrate the
sweet womanhood h«r youth promised.
But we shall remember that ber pure
spirit is in the home of the blessed, and
will live and shine
— forever there
Where all parti: ti, pain ai.d care,
And death and time shall disappear.”

Cikcw.nati. Oct. 81.—The state cam
paign is drawing near the close and
each party is straining every effort to
ward' vietory on electiou day. What
the outcome will he is rather hard to
predict. Both the great parties assert
that their respective candidates will be
elected by a considerable majority. It
is safe to be patient and let the returns
of Nov. 8 tell exactly how the voting
stands.
George Campbell, a Republican office
holder in Columbus, struck the nail on
the bead wheu he said: "Yon may
give us 10.000 in Hamilton county aud
5,000 in Cuyahoga. But then you tell
me how the rural districts are going,
ril toll yon who will win." That’s the
situation. The farmers are going to
deride the matter after all. However,
the Republicans claim that they will
have a majority of several thousand.
Speaking of the' political situation
Chairman Nod remarked: "I say to
you what I have said to very few peo
ple, because I don't believe in talking
much, " he began. "Thatis, that I hon
estly regard the situation for Mr.
Campbell better than it was at this
time two years ago, and when I say
that I say it witp a foil knowledge
ot all the trouble in Hamilton county,
with the knowledge tiiat the party is
absrlutely witiiout funds for the legiti
mate expenses of the campaign, with
the knowledge that Campbell has had
the liardt st fight on his hands any can
diuate ever had. Weareinbettershape
than we were two years ago at. this tune
and I believe Governor Campbell will
win."
Wheu asked about the People’s party,
he replied: "It won’t cut much of
a figure so fur os electing its candi
dates is concerned, but it may pull 20,-
000 votes inHhe state."
"Won’t that help the Democratic
party?”
"We certainly hope and believe so.
Then yon must remember that in this
new liiullot system we hare an agency
which we believe will greatly help ns.
Toat has beau the history' of the Arts-
tra 'an ballot sysL-m, wherever adopted,
an we believe it will cut off the whole
sale buying of votes that has made Ohio
a reliable Republican state. ”

A TRIBUTE OF LOVE
To Maud Burch by B. M. Conger.
Our little Maud is gone She will
never come back to us, but she waits to
,ci,mt us iu Heaven.
We cannot hear her dear, sweet,
earthly voice again, tb> ugh loudly
-wells her voiee with praises te our
Lord.
Oh, how dearly we loved her 1
We miss the little brown-eyed girl
everywhere. For two years, lacking
two months, those eyes nave looked up
into mine every day and filled my heart
with hope and love, and encouraged me
in my work with little ones. Often in
the bast, when in the school-room,
1 felt displeased and disposed “to
lecture,” I have looked ap and caught
a glance of a bright, earnest face, beam
ing with love aod trust, looking
straight into my soul. That faoe, most
every time, turned my lecture into a
story or song.
How great the influence of those lit
tle ones! How they fiU our souls with
love and hope 1

faithful, and trusting little pupils that

The New York Campaign.
New York. Oct. 31.—The campaign
lu this state is being waged with as much
vigor by both the Democrats "and'Re
publicans as any one ■. iu recent " years.
The two parties are holding rallies aud
their orators are addressing audiences
all over the state. The Democrats are
keeping the World's Fair issue to the
front, and the-Re publicans .are fighting
Tammany with equaled determination.
Tlie Evening world here says editorially
that they are feeling happy at the state
Democratic headquarters in the Hoff-
mau house. Tub outlook for vietory
on election - day is bright. From all
over the state news ot Democratic en
thusiasm and confidence hurcome,.
The Evening Mail au.l E.tpros said
said that the aituatiou iu New York is
hopeful. Fassott will be elected. Tam
many will be defeated. The rime for a
change has come, and the people will
have a change on January J.
So that it may seem that both par
ties in the empire state are hopeful.
