HIS DAYS ARE NUMBERED.
Some time ago The News and Ob-
server predicted that Senator ButlerTs
political days were numbered. This
was betore his speech at Rocky Mount.
Since that vile slander upon the
manhooil of the State, the prediction
is being rapidly verified,
The people ot the State are up in
wrath against him; mightily aroused
in many communities, they declare
that if he ever comes into their midst
again they will heap some indignity
upon him to show their coudemnaticn
of his slanderous words.
What is more, the news comes from
Washington that tho Senate will very
likely take the matter in hand, inves-
tigate it to the bottom and either expel
the author of the words from that
body as a blackguard, unworthy to
associate with decent mer, much less
pass laws tor a great nation, or past &
resolution reprimanding him tor such a
speech.
This is the news that was yesterday
flashed over the wires ani is this
morning printed in sowe of the New
York papers! What truth there is in
it yet remains to be seeh.
That the man Tealizes his terrible
condition is showr. by the fact that he
is moving heaven and earth to prove
that he did not use the words attribut- |
edto bim. He is importuning all the
Populists and Republicans who were
in his audiencs at Rocky Mount that
day to write him letters saying tha~
they heard no such words as those
above quoted. ~These letters he pur-
poses publishing in his paper next
week, and using in his defense should
he matter come up betore the Senate.

casian he has published what purport-

SING A SONG. " 1%,
If you'll sing a song as you go along,
In the face of the real or the fancied wrong,
In spite of the doubt if you'll fight it out, ~
And show a heart that is brave and stout;
If you'll Jacgh at the jeers and refuse the tears,
You'll force the ever reluctant cheers ~
That the world denies when a coward ories,
To give to the man who bravely tries.
And you'll win success with a little song _-
If you'll sing the song as you go along!
If you'll sing a song as you plod along,
You'll find that the busy rushing throng
Will catch the strain of the glad refrain ;
That the sun will follow the blinding rain;
That the clouds will fly from the blackened
sky ;
That the stars will come out by and by,
And you'll make new friends, till hope de
scends
From where the placid rainbow bends.
And all because of a little song"
If you'll sing the song as you plod along!
If youTll sing a song as you trudge along,
YouTll see that the singing will make you
strong.
And the heavy load and the rugged road
And the sting and the stripe of the tortuous
goad
Will soar with the note that you set afloat;
That the beam will change to a trifling mote;
That the world is bad when you are sad,
And bright and beautiful when glad.
That all you need is a little song"
If youTll sing the song as you trudge algng!
