Lind to Mexico.
President Wllnon has selected a
strong man in John Lind of Mlnn-
sota to Bond as his personal ambassa
dor to Mexico, but what arc we to ex
pect from an ambassador with no
official status or authority? While
Mr. Lind will represent the president
personally, his capacity must bo
purely an advisory one becauso ac
credited to no government. Under
nuch circumstances no other foreign
minister there, vested with official
power, can have official relation
with a personal representative; and
as for the existing regime in Mexico,
Mr. Lind or the prvate ngent of an
American president refusing to
recognizo it is not apt to exert
much Influence. His chief service
must, therefore, be as an observer
and adviser on the spot ready to re
port and recommend to Washington.
The Mlnncsotan wnn doubtless named
on the advice of Secretary Bryan, for
thoy have been Intimate personal and
political frlonds since Llnd's back
sliding from tho republican party
during the free silver era. It Is safe
to assume, too, that unless he be
comes persona non grata, Mr. Lind
will later bo made Ambassador when
official relations with Mexico are re
sumed.

Many women, under proUst, have bten

It Is a sensible appeal, but whether
it can be made fruitful of results Is
open to question. Yet the women
proceed on practical lines In making
their plea on economic rather than
purely moral grounds. The moral

THE .GERM COVERED BUCKET.
New York Sun.
How they sadden this heart, the scenes
of my childhood,
When dread recollections presents them
to view
Malarious meadows and dangerous wild
wood, The place where the mushrooms, so
poisonous grew;
The pond was a cc&spool; the stable stood
by It,
Draining Into the stream where the
cataract fell;
The poultry yard sat with the dairy
houes nigh It;
And that terrible bucket that hung In
welll
The funcus-grown bucket, the germ-laden
bucket.
The moss-covered bucket that hung In
the well.
Poor "'art was addicted to quinine and
bitters.
Poor mother was shaken with fever
and chill
And we burled 'em both, the Innocent
critters,
In the populous crnveyard that
bloomed on the hill
The graveyard that gobbled the whole
generation,
That drained toward the house when
the summer rnln fell
Sometimes I dream of my father's plan
tation . ,
And wake with a scream when I think
of that well!
And that terrible bucket, that death
dealing bucket.
That germ-covered bucket that hung In
the well.
