MEN WHO WOO BLOODSHED.

The editor whose policy is that of
bitter denunciation of persons who
choose to differ from him carries his
life in his own hands. He may es-
cape the supreme issue for years. Ac-
cident and the mental peculiarities
of individuals may furnish many days
of grace. But ground sewn in the
seed of bloodshed will yield its dead
ly fruit. And in time he by whom
sown must partake thereof or COM
pei others to partake. He must kill
or be killed. Either his hands must
be stained with blood or it will red
den those of his aggrieved antagonist.
Like the Ishmaelite of old, his hands
are against all men. Daily he sows
the dragons teeth. Victory may be
his to-day; but he fights against des-
perate odds. He constantly wages
an unequal battle; and if persistent
in his course, little less than mira
Gle can avert death by the violence
his actions incite. Whether the ag-
gressor or the aggrieved first bite
the dust matters little. The fate of
the victim in his grave were scarcely
more deplorable than that Of him
who sent him there, and who must
ever stand in the black shadow Of his
crime, bearing the brand of Cain.
The above is from the Arkansas
Gazette. We had seen, read and APP
proved the sentiments it contains,
and noted with pleasure the moral
to which it pointed. But coming, as
it does, clipped and carefully enclos-
ed in an envelope, sealed and drop
ped in the Post office with three
cent stamp, and addressed to "The
Osceola Times" in an evidently al
tered or disguised hand writing, with
out line or scratch Of pen, to in
dicate from whence it came, or what
the object Of its coming, together
with the peculiar language in which
| it is couched, leaves us in doubt as
to the motives which prompted our
circumspect contributor in sending it
in such a clandestine manner. If
intended merely as an admonition to
be ever on our guard in dealing fair
" with men and measures, and to
avoid indulging in bitter personal
denunciations of private individuals,
we accept with kindness the good
and friendly intention; not that we
particularly need the admonition,
but it's well enough to be constant
ly reminded of our duty, lest in an
evil hour we depart therefrom. But,
on the other hand, if as the language
quoted above, shorn Of any explana-
ton, is intended to convey an impli-
ed threat and intimidation, then the
trouble was useless, and the three
cent stamp expenditure a wanton
waste of wealth. Outside Of guard
| ing, to the best of our ability, the
public interest, by pointing out
when necessary, and in general terms,
the dclinquencies and short comings
of those elevated to public positions
of honor and trust, and the leaders
of communities right accorded a
free press, and duty exacted by the
. public, we have endeavorod to steer
clear of trespasslng upon the private
. character of individuals or meddling
with private affairs. We may, and

notice of their puerile attempts to
attract our attention, and giving them
a little cheap notoriety through our
columns. We have not had the in
clination nor the tins to boost such
diminutive souls into a blaze of no.
toriety, neither could we afford to
hold them up before the public to
wonder and stare at as prodigies of
human greatness; for the moment we
let go our editorial hold from the
scrutf of their soiled shirt collar, and
drop their names from our columns,
they would be sure to sink out of
sight and return to the obscurity
from whence they came.

The Mistakes Farmers
Make.

An exchange published in the in
terror Of the States, speaks of the
departure of an old settler for Dako-
ia, where he will take up a quarter
section of land and begin life again at
the age of seventy. The case of this
man is so near that of thousands of
others, that few comments may not
be out of place. The man had a
nice farm near a splendid town, where
he had lived and brought up family.
He got tired of farming, sold the
farm for six thousand dollars, moved
to town and went into the livery
business, and in three years went
through everything except a team
and lumber wagon, and now he has
packed up and gone to Dakota, with
heart heavier than his pock ct book,
and he will die out there.
The number of farmers that decide
to go to town to live, every year,
and go into business. is appalling.
Every town has them, and nine out
of ten Leeome poor. They get an
idea that town business men are the
happiest people on earth, and have
an easy time and they get to brooding
over their hard life, and they think
anybody can run store, a grocery,
or livery stable, and they sell out
the farm and go into business in
town. The most of them go into the
grocery business, because it seems
so easy to weigh out sugar and tea.
They can always find a grocery man
who will sell out the remains of a
sick stock of groceries for ready cash,
and when the farmer first sees his
name over the door of grocery, he
feels as though he was made, and
puts his thumbs in the armholes of
his vest. He uses his money to stock
up, pays cash, and his credit is good,
and he buys everything that is shown
him. The commercial traveller who
first strikes the farmer grocer has it
all his own way, and pretty soon the
grocery is full. 1t generally takes
farmer two years to go through a
200 acre farm in the grocery bust
ness. Instead of the business being
an easy running sort of a ay-out, it
requires the best management of any
branch of trade. The profits are
small, and the waste is terrible. A
grocer has got to be sharp as tacks.
The farmers girls and boys soon re-
alize that they are merchants sons
and daughters, instead Of farmers,
and they have to keep up with the
procession. There has to be lots of
things bought as merchants that
would never be thought of as farmer.
The farm house furniture is not good
enough, the democrat wagon gives
place to a carriage, the old mare gives
place to high steppers, and the girls
dress better and do not work. The
family lives out of the grocery, the
boys play base ball, and the girls go
to big parties. The farmer is a good
fellow, and trusts many good fellows
who can't pay, in some cases he gets
to drinking. Bills begin to come in,
and he can't collect enough to pay
rent. Friends that would help him
out with money when he had farm,
will now tell him money is mighty
scarce, and he will have to give a
chattle mortgage on the stock. The
stock runs down until there's moth
ing but red tin-can of mustard,
with bulls head on it, some canned

Now that Boi9e City, Idaho, is in a
fair way of getting a $4,000 appropri-
alton for public buildings, our delegate,
Nj. Post, will probably keep an open
eye for Wyoming's opportunity.
The policy of'congress has only too
uniformly been to appropriate nothing
to public buildings in territories be-
cause-well, simply because they are
territories. States have senators and
representatives, with votes, and con-
gress is more deferential to them. But
now that the house committee basagreed
to report favOrably for Boise City, and
there is a reasonable probability thai
the recommendation will be adopted, {
new era seems to have dawned. A
more liberal spirit prevails. If congress!
will go $4,000 on Boise City, doubles.
1t will go that much on Cheyenne, ant

SPECIAL agent Furay is in bad luck.
That famous star route case Oh the Sid
ney route that was 'just agoin to bust
things everlastingly" collapsed just as
many other things have done that Furay
has attempted. Furay sounded n large
sized bassoon through the country
when he FIRST discovered this mares
nest, and he caused it to be announced
that the developments that would follow
were certain to shake the country from
the bottom of the Comstock lode to the
dome of the capital. However on the
trial of the so-called conspirators atLin-
coin, Nebraska, the prosecution failed
most miserably. Furay worked up the
evidence, of course, but he hadn't sense
enough to see that q man jointly indict-
ed couldn't be forced to testify for the
prosecution.
No doubt the fly cop Furay ragged and
went into q fury, but as he is a very
small man he can get out of a very
small hole.
