DEMOCRATS will see from what we
copied from the Republican into the
GAZETTE last week that that paper has
no regard whatever for fair dealing in
politics. The paragraphs we published,
which we're 50 utterly untruthful, II the
next day asserted we're just such as it
was proud Of. 1t declares in effect over
and over again that the children OF
Democrats should be put in the public
schools with the children of negroes. II
favors this kind of equality while
the GAZETTE repudates it utterly, and
has too much respect for any decent Re-
publican to wish to see either himself
or his children degraded to the COM
panionship and society of negroes, with
young or old. Had it not been for the
efforts of the GAZETTE and the Demo-
Gratis, all our public schools would have
been opened TO negroes.

presented are worthy the attention of
those who are disposed to glorify dan
gerous and difficult rides. In August
1868, Buffalo Bill rode in twelve hours
from Fort Larned to Fort Zsrah and
back, sIxty-fye miles in the succeeding
twelve hours he carried dispatches to
General Sheridan from Fort Larned to
Hays, sixty-fine miles. From Fort Hays
he rode in the next.twenty-four hours to
Fort Dodge, ninety five miles; on the
next night he went to Fort Larned,
thirty five miles on foot and thirty miles
on q mule aud again the next night
from Fort Larned to Fort Hays, sixty
five miles. He made on horses, mules
and afoot, three hundred and ffly-five
miles, and be was in the saddle or on
foot fifty eight hours.
Every one of these four successive
rides was made through regular break
neck country, swarming with hostile In
dians- country in which there were no
roads, and in which a scarcely percepti-
BILE trial had TO be followed In the obscur-
ity Of night. For courage In the adven-
ture, as well as tor endurance and skill,
that was a great achievement. Earlier
in life, and as pony express rider, Buff
falo Bill made a nearly continuous ride
of three hundred and twenty-five miles.
| But these achievements, though they are
wonderful as examples Of endurance, are
surpassed for speed by Rankin's ride
| since he made one hundred and sixty
miles in twenty-four hours. He, also
had only a rough trial TO follow, snc
had to escape the vigilance Of the Utes,
who surrounded the command on every
side. Recently a great deal has beer
written in England In praise OF the gall
lantry and endurance of Mr.. Archibald
Forbes tough ride across the Zulucoun
try. He rode from nine p NJ. on on'
day until five z. NJ. on the next aud mad'
one hundred and ten miles. His rid'
Was in SIX stages, and at each stage he OBJ
aimed a fire h horse and ref eshment
and cheer for himself. He had guide'
and an escort part Of the way and he fol
lowed across the country the trail whicl
had been made by all advancing army
six thousand men and the innuInerabl'
OK carts which carried the supplies
that army. His achievement was worth.
of honor. and his fellow journalists d.
more than justice in celebrating 1t warm
ly; but If they chant peans over that rid
