prior to the notice to the local land office of

1t is easier to tear down than to
build up; to find fault with existing
institutions, than to suggest better.
So called reformers are to often only
destructionists. They pitch in and
smash things, and then leave the rub,
bish for some. one else to clear up.
There is danger that the Oranges may
commit this error. Because we see
great wrongs that need sighting, we
are in danger Of ass q pg--iask eyI1llly.@,
thing is wrong, and e.s55lsags in for q
grand wreck OF matter: Because the
railroads oppress us, it won't answer
to declare q general war of eXtermina-
ton against the whole system. These
roads are great good; we can't get
along without them, and it will not d
to attempt their suppression. We must
only labor coolly and sensibly, to rid
them Of their swindling elements. Be-
cause our retail merchants sometimes
charge too high for goods, we must
not conclude that they are a nuisance,
and work for their destruction. We
need the home stores, and we should,
while insisting on our own rights be
ready to do them justice.
We shouldn't wage general war on
commission men. We need them; but
we should not use their services when
we can do as well or better without
them In all our movements We should
work to reform present agencies, rath-
er than originate new ones. Because
we see an evil, we must not conclude
that there is nothing good in its neigh
| borhood. It is nonsense to throw
away your whole crop of wheat when
it leaves the thresher, because you de-
tect chafr Use the tanning mill before
you decide what to do with your cror
Give present institutions a thorough
investigation then discard what i;
bad and retain the good,-EN. j

thousand persons, mostly Indians.
Without seeking it, be acquired such
influence among the islanders that he
was known along the coast as
King of Tigre. He reigned un.
questioned, was temperate, humane,
frugal and happy. In an unlucky
moment he was induced to join a
scheme for the consolidation Of the
Central American States. With a
thousand armed men he Joined Barras;
defeated, he returned to the island
with but hundred Of his followers.
His seaport was in possession of the
enemy, whom he routed. He raised
fresh volunteers, threw up some rude
Notifications, and was besieged-fnal-
~ defeated by the troops of Honduras,
ne wandered in the woods with price
upon his head, escaped momentarily
By swimming to an island some six
miles distant, where he was betrayed,
arrested, courtmartialed, and SEN
fenced to be shot. Such was his pop
ularity in Tigre that it was deemed
best not to carry the sentence into ex-
ecuticn, and, after suffering long and
painful imprisonment, he was released.
He now leisurely devotes himself to the
gentle arts of peace and the compan-
ionship of such poetasters as Joaquin
Miller and Algernon Swinburne.
