An Important Decision.

On Monday last, Judge Prescott rendered
a very important decision in case tried at
the last term Of court, namely: "Pratt Vs.
Mills" forcible.entry and de,ainer. W. P.
Montgomery appeared for Pratt and l. II.
Edwards for Mills. The case was this:
Pratt held homestead papers upon tract Of
land in Ellis county. and sometime last win
ter Mills commenced contest in the u g..
Land Office against this entry, and, pending
the decision of the Commissioner. took
possession of the land and commenced i'm
provemenis. Pratt brought action of forci-
bic entry and detainer in the District court,
and on Monday Judge Prescott gave him
Judgment, ejecting Mills.
This decieion is Of great interest to the
settler upon public domain q closing long
noted point. The Judge clearly and con-
cisely stated the points in the case, holding
that until tine government cancelled the en-
try made BY and the contract made with the
settler, possession WAS legally vested in him
and all other occupants were treapassen.
Thus 1t will be seen that the contestor gains
NO possessory rights until cancellation has
been made. The decision is Just and log

Back to the Old Fold.

Captain G. w. Ashby, a member of the
Greenback party of Neosho county, having
been urged to be candidate for the Office Of
County Clerk, respectfully declined the can
didacy, and gives his reasons therefor in the
Chanute Times. We give the following ex-
tract from his article:
While am Greenbacker, cannot dis
credit the conviction of my better sense,
that the currency question is now settled,
and will remain so, until future dis urbances
may reopen the question for available &C
ton. While these events are transporting /
shall vote and act as l have in the past. i
have ever been, am now and sh all ever re-
main on the side Of human emancipation,
and had supposed, until transpiring events
prove to the contrary, that the surrender ct
Lee at Appomatox forever buried the doc
,rine OF state rights with all its heresies.
The def mt attitude Of the leading minds of
the Democratic party towards this govern
ment has unfortunately revived the old issue,
and to-day the old enemy is daring 10 as
ssult the foundations of one OF the best gov
ernments on earth. That we are nation,
and not q confederacy, is the issue upon
which We are to stand or fall. The great
victories won in behalf of human freedom,
are too seriously jeopardzad to permit sin-
gle vote to be drawn from the ranks of the
only party tina, has been the champion and
defender Of the rights and liberty Of all men,
without regard to nationality, race or color.

Stock and Farming interests.

Stock and Farming Interests.
Questions of great practical importance
must arise between proprietors Of land and
owners Of stock, whenever and wherever
these two interests are represented to any
considerable extent within the same COM
muni.y. In this region there is perhaps no
question which will give rise to more dis
putes or create greater amount Of litigation
than that relating to the trespass OF stock
upon land.
1t may not be improper to discuss aome Of
the reasJns upon which this hypothesis Ii
predicated. As when the mariner, warned
and already prepared TO meet the danger OF
the coming storm, has the drop" on the
buffeting fury of the angry waves, so will
stock.men and farmers be able to avoid the
unpleasantness of dreadful disputes and the
terrible onus of expensive Lawsuits, by hav-
ing timely considered their relationship to
this important subject, and understand some
thing Of the duties and liabilities attached
10 tnelf Respective lhteieSs''
As an intelligent disposition OF the sub
iect necessarily must induce much more
extended discussion than would sui. the
convenience Of our present means OF rub!i-
cation, we shall conine ourselves in the
present article to noting the principal facts
and circumstances relating TO the subject,
deiering the consideration Of the legal prin-
ciples involved for subsequent issues Of the
paper.
1t must be conceded that this region lie
admirably adapted to the grazing industry;
and that this industry win, and az far as the
interests Of every individual will permit
should, be fostered and literally encouraged.
This needs no argument II sustain it.
Every one who ia acquainted with the char
acter or climatic condition of this country
thoroughly understands this fact. We do
not wish it to be inferred that We believe
this country il suited or fitted to the interests
Of grsziers only: Whether true or false, it
is useless to assume such a position. AL
ready has the sturdy farmer here rened his
home, drove his team afeld and broke the
stubborn cod of the prairie. He is patient,
energetic and determined; hardsbips nor
toll, drou.h nor gloomy prospects, though
distressful and sometim s Encouraging TO
him, yet never master or ununan him.
The greater amount OF means necessary to
embark in the stock business with any de-
gree of advantage than is required BY the
homesteader, taken into consideration with
the fact that many who are homes.eaders
are too ehort of means 10 change the present
pursuit, the future enhancement OF the value
Of their farms being their only hope, it is
plain to be seen that graziers are not the
only ones whose interests should be reg ird-
ed. These two industrie', too, are in a
great measure antagonis:ic TO each other,
and will continue to be in conflict for some
time to come. The principal Cause Of this is
the scarcity Of fencing material and the con.
sequent exposure Of growing crops to the at
tacks Of animals running at large. 1t may
be noted that the stock.raiser and farmer
here have no community of interest and lit
tie sympathy for each. other. J.B.

The Views of "a Native North Carolinian.
TO The Editor of Tie National Republican
SIR: have read in your paper of the 27th
ult. an "Open Letter to Senator Morgan, of
Alabama" which shows the "ring of the right
metal" Not only so ; it evidently emnnated
from brains and boldness. which few men
have. don't think have ever heard or read
n communication moro ropleto with facts; it
has but one objection the truth is not half
told Would that more nativemen of the South
would come out and express themselves fully,
who are and were acquainted with the "cur-
rent events" of the past and present. If they
would, from different States and localities, the
Government, North and South, would under
stand tho situation much better, and | have
often been surprised that they did not. Com
munications from natives of the South, whose
devotion could not be doubted, would most as.
surcdly do good. What good man is there who
does not desire the perpetuity of the Union
and the prosperity of the whole people? Your
correspondent says 'the South is no more
solid for your party tDemocratic) to-day than
| IL was solid for secession in 1861" There Is
nothing more true. If the white men were
to-day untrummeled their votes would show
something of 1860 and 1861 ON secession.
Ku-Kluxism was the prime cause Of the i'm.
| peachment and removal of Governor Holden
| from Office but fortunately for our State and
| the Government it was soon thereafter throt-
tied and killed. the credit, l believe, sir was
given to North Carolina. During Ku-Kluxism,
though after detection, President Grant said
'he believed that the organization was disband-
ed and that the members of the order had re-
pented and would become good citizens" he
was answered that they had not nor would not
cease their diabolical aims. Time has shown
him at least his error.
/ don't believe in the doctrine Of letting "by-
cones be bygones y the rather / believe in
profitng by "bygones." Just so now. What
is the remedy? Wiser heads than mine must
find it. 1 trust "a Native Alabamian" will
give his views in this matter.
