COL. Bob 1NGERsoLL is reported
as having determined to sever his
connection with the Republican
party because the President refuses
to pardon some lewd fellow Of the
baser sort for circulating obscene
Literature through the mails. He
thinks this an interference with
personal freedom. And it is an in
reference with personal freedom,
when the demi monde are prevented
from, openly carrying on their de-
grading vocation. It is an inter-
ference with personal freedom when
the gambler is restrained from
.swindling and cheating the unwary
and debauching the minds Of
, the youth Of our - cities.
When the thief or the robber lis
sent to the penitentiary for appro-
priating another's goods to his own
use, it is a restraint upon his per-
sonal freedom, and SO when the
emurderer is made to atone for his
brothers blood unlawfully taken.
IF Col. Ingerson really means to dc
& &-.5s 4
what he IS credited with, he ought
to carry, this matter of persona
freedom to its full extent and favol
the.repeal Of all penal laws.

ONE of the charges brought
against Dixon, who was murdered
in Yazoo county, Miss, last week
by Barksdale, is that he was an
"infdel in religion. So pious are
the Mississippi Democracy that they
can not tolerate infdelity, and in
the name Of religion and2a solid
South, the knightly Barksdale
armed himself with q double-bar-
raled shotgun, went upon the streets,
and when his victim turned his
back killed him. There are those.
outside Of Mississippi who regard
. the murder Of Dixon as a cowardly,
high-handed outrage, but then it is
not generally known, perhaps, that
he was " an infdel in religion" and
that the pious people of Yazoo
county are religious that
they couldn't think of tolerating it.
Barksdale and his comrades are en-
gagged in q holy crusade against in
fidelity, and when with his shot>gun
on his shoulder he started to hunt
for his game, he was only dis
charging a religious duty.

A Warning Example.

We have frequently called the atten.
ton of the leaders of the democratic
party to the necessity of paying some
attention to the signs Of the times.
There is a great deal brewing just now
in political circles, and unless care is
taken to consult the wishes and views
of the people, the latter may make
dough Of the democratic cakes next
election. If the suggestions of men
Of sound, liberal 'nnd progressive
ideas inside the party are not needed,
however, we shall take the result as
calmly as did the gentleman when the
old lady persisted in sticking her head
out OF the car window and refused to
listen to the conductor. He merely
said, with q genial smile: "Let her
alone" if she gets her brains knocked
out, she will not try it again. and it
will be a warning to somebody else."

citv Council Meeting.

The mayor called a special meeting
Of the city council last evening for the
purpose of considering an invitation
that had been received to attend the
tournament to be held at Denver, Colo,
on Sept. %; also to consider the pro-
position to purchase a bell for the Chey-
enne FIRE department. rs,
The mayor called the meeting to Or
der, and briefly stated the object of the
meeting, and said he understood that
there were representatives of the fire
department present, whom he had no
doubt the gentlemen of the council
would take pleasure in listening to on
the subject Of the bell.
Mr.. H.. Haas, chief Of the FIRE de-
partment, arose and made a verbal
statement to the effect that the depart
ment ut a recent meeting had appoint
ed a committee to wait on the council
and represent to them that the bell now
in use was not sufficiently large for the
use Of the department, and to urge
upon the council the necessity of pur-
chasing a new one
W. NJ. Mast then addressed the meet
ing, and stated facts and figures rela-
tive to the price and weight of bells
and where they could be obtained.
Mr.. Casswell, in order to bring the
matter directly before the meeting,
made a motion that the city of Chey-
enne purchase a bell, not less than
1000 and not more than 1900 pounds
in weight, said bell not to exceed thirty
cents per pound laid down in Cheyenne.
Carried.
The matter of accepting the invita-
ton to the tournament was then ON
sidered. The members were polled as
to whether or not they wished to go,
and a sufficient number replying in the
affirmative, Mr.. Hubbard moved that
the invitation be accepted, and that
the clerk be instructed to notify the
city clerk of Denver of the fact, and
also the probable number of members
of the council who wished to attend.
Carried. y-f
The meeting then adjourned.

ferred. He spoke in the highest terms
of the manner in which be had been
treated by the Indians, but supposed
the secret Of the good treatment lay in
the fact that he was a sort of laughing
stock for them, and in his wild, wierd
way amused them by making speeches,
which they could not understand, but
which seemed to amuse them immense
ly, for they laughed uproarously at
everything he said and did. Prof.
Harper explained to the reporter that
the reason he did not make his where
abouts known was that during his con-
scious intervals, he did not have conf
dence enough in himself to attempt
the journey, as he IVES afraid he would
again become delirious. When he left
the Indians he tried to lnd the soldiers,
whose location he lad ascertained from
the Indians, who kept well posted in
this regard, as they consider a soldiers
encampment the best place in the world
to stay away FROM"

strange case. First, that Prof. Harper
sloped for some real or fancied offense,
and vas never out west; second. that
he has been demented and wandered
about aimlessly. No one takes any
stock In his being abducted from home.
However, it is a big sensation in Indi-
ana. Letters Of inquiry have already
been received in Cheyenne asking about
the truthfulness Of the reports.
A representative of the LEADER
asked City Marshal Ryan about the
matter, and he does not remember of
any such character having ever been in
Cheyenne. 1t Is not likely that search
would be made for a man in this city
without the knowledge of the vigilant
city marshal. So old man Harper's
story seems as wierd as that Of his son,
the Eighty professor.
