The Nebrask an -Hesperian 7 THE AMERICAN MAN WITH HIS HOE. Buoyed up by every hope that nnimatos The human breast ho stands erect and firm, Amidst the fertile emptre of his fields; "Upon his face the light of promise like The burnished sun; within his ar moured limbs The pent-up earnest for all future time. Who built so wide and high the shell of bone, Which holds his teeming brain! who set his eyes So wide apart? 'twas liberty, 'twas she Who ran the wires of energy along His sturdy legs and put the fires of hope Like blazing torches in his lifted eyes. Behold him as ho treads the loamy soil With independence such as kings might craVe; The dawn to sound his reveille; the dusk To bring him peaceful rest; his only ' lords The changing seasons as they come and go; The gentle spring; the summer with her warmth To woo the harvest, and that russet time The autumn with her rich rewards, and last Old winter with her snowy months of rest. By every mark of toil , within his hands; By every bead of sweat upon his brow The world may know he has the right to eat. His honest bread and look to none for aid. He holds the keys to all the riches packed Beneath the generous sod, and wider still, He finds within the heart of nature hidden The secrets, ages long "have sought, and-scans- p -- The heavens with "knowing eye to read the clouds L.ike open pages of a printed Dook. This man of "brawn and brain with up ward face Sees visions in the stars and dreams his dreams That kiss the gates of God; with eagle wings His strong Imaginings leap up the skies, And o'er the face of all the eaTth, and deep Within her hidden mines, and yokes with toll The cheering comfort of a poet's song. Nay, Markham, the sodden man you sing, "WaB never whelped beneath the float ing folds Of yonder flag, but bred in empires old, And crumbling to decay, whose waliB were huilt Upon the craven nocks of slaves; but we Have reared a nation towering high upon The -willing shoulders of such men as these As strong as rocks that rib this chang- HeBS earth; Nor all the blatant tongues of anar chy, Nor tostored discontent, nor sorpont wiles Of oily 'demagogues, can move the state fDeep ifounded on thlB mighty adamant. William Heed Dunroy. MR. KING'S ELECTION. "We dip the following which -will 'be of much Interest to our rcaOors: "The Bchool board at its laBt meeting itook up itho matter of the ouporlntend ency for 'the coming year.

THE BEST IN THE WORLD. Wo believe Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the best in the world. A few weeks ago we suffered with a se vere cold and a troublesome cough, and having read their advertisements in our own and other papers we pur chased a bottle to see how it would affect u&. It cured us before the bot tle was more than half used. It is the best medicine out for colds and coughs. The Herald, Andersonville, Ind. For sale by Druggists. GIRL'S BASKET BALL GAME.
