_... "A house with sealed doors, where a family of 7,000,000 sits in silence around a cheerless hearth.... America opened the window ... and slipped a loaf of bread into the larder."--Frederick Palmer, in_ THE NEW YORK TIMES. Merchant ships many are on the main. This that we send plies not for gain-- Ship of the loaves! May her course be straight, When the starving millions her coming wait! In a "Happy Province" beyond the sea ("Happy" by fiat--a monarch's decree!) They have sei...zed their lands, they have taken their stores, They have shut them up, they have sealed the doors! The folk within--their table is bare. But why should the lords of the "Province" care?-- Myrmidons, myrmidons, first to feed; Afterwards think of the people's need. Let the arm'd men eat, let the people wait, (Say the lords of the "Province" who parcel out fate,) Let the arm'd men feed--that their strength endure, That their hearts be lusty, their grasp be sure!
