keynote of the political and social fights of

is one end which should be constantly pur.
suedby every intelligent American in what.
ever belongs to legislation and to govern

government, to reduce the number and the
authority of oillceholders, and to abolish, as
far as possible, the interference of political
agents in private affairs"

sOTELDO,s LOVE AFFAIR.

The Story Of HIS Elopensent sUith and
Marriage to the Daughter ola Wealthy
Rail,cay king.
BIDDEFoRD, Me-, Feb. ia. M. Soteldo,
the journalist who was the victim of TRACE.
dy at Washington last week, was known to
number of people in this city and saco. He
was here last summer, and was an assiduous
sutton for the hand of Miss Clement, whom he
came to visit. Miss Clement is the daughter
of the Hon. William A. Clement, of Cincin-
natl, one the railroad kings of
the West, and general manager of
the Cincinnati Southern railway, and for
many years has been in the habit of spending
the summer here witch his family, stopping at
the Yates House at the Pool. Miss Clement
was beautiful and attractive young lady, and
has been one OF the society bellies of Cinctn-
natl. Soteldo's attentions to the young lady
were not pleasing to the father, who used
every possible means to break off the match,
but Miss Clement reciprocated Soteldo's love,
and parental influence and entreaty were of no
avail to move her to give him up. soteldo
disappeared for a time, but kept up a secret
correspondence with Miss Clement while
she remained here. One day last Au-
gust he appeared on the ground again,
with arrangements perfected to secure his
promised bride. An elopement was planned
and carried out. By prearrangement Miss
Clement went to Saco and met her lover at the
saco house on the 18th of August The ser
vices of the Rev. DR.. Nichols, Of the Unfair
ian church, had been secured, and the two
were quickly made man and wife. The young
lady returned to her family. and it was some
time before her parents learned of the marriage.
When they were finally appraised of it,they were
filled with modification and Indignation, feel
ing that their daughter had made mesalli.

orally known, and created qnite a sensation in

Bulls and Bears.
fLondon News.1

The etymology of the term "bear" is be-
lieved to be this: When dealer in stocks, or
for that matter In merchandise, had sold more
than he was capable of delivering he was ma
turally bare of the article, and it was naturally
his interest that prices should fall in order
that he should cover his engagements and be
no longer bare. From the adjective, the
transition to the substantive of the same
sound (bear) was easy. The growing bear
being thus embodied, his antitype, the bull,
was not long making an appearance. It Is
somewhat curious to find in the popular
mind a diffused notion that bulls are the
more virtuous creatures. This is sometimes
a fallacy. The bull is usually Spectator,
who proposes to gain merely by market
fluctuations, and to fish in troubled waters.
The real investor, for instance, is often bear
in spirit because he awaits an opportunity to
buy cheaply. The cotton manufacturer who
contracts to sell cloth is in spirit bear of
yarn and other materials, which he requires
to buy cheaply-that is, unless he has already
bought too much of such materials, in which
case he has over-traled. Some amount of
speculation is no doubt good, wholesome, and
necessary in business. It. is only when the
one party is much overpowered by the oppos-
ing party that mischief results. For years
past the bulls have had their own way in
France, being able to borrow money with
singular facility, until few months ago,
when the aspect of things began to show
signs Of changing, aud this week the bears
have been paramount.

ton of the House.

WASHINGTON, Feb Ex-senator Dawes in
presenting a petition in behalf of Indians
said 100000 persons had signed the petitions
now before congress and be urged that so uni
versal demand of wealthy and intelligent
citizens should accomplish its purpose, and
nation should keep its plighted faith and
treat the Indians justly.
Senator Plumb denied that the position and
wealth of the petitioners should make them
better judges Of what was wise and Just treat
ment OF Indians than were the people who
lived among them. He pictured the leniency
with which crime stained Indians had been
treated.
Dawes spoke OF the indignities heaped upon
the Indians who, having been despoiled of
their domain by coyelous land seekers, had
been driven in despair and self-defense to retail
late
Senator Plumb, referring TO the petitions,
said those whom the senator represented had
columns of sympathy for the Indians but only
a passing word for those who had suffered at
his hands.
Senator Dawes briefly responded that the
first outrages were committed by the people
of the United States upon the Indians.
Senator Teller SAID the petitioners were full
OF patriotism, fervent and ignorant and devoid
Of the common sense which ought TO govern
legislation. The people of the frontier could
not consistently be charged with having wan
tonly violated treaties or mallreated
Indians. Their own self protection
and personal interests dictated,
fair treatment of Indians. The well being
and education of the tribes was therefore OF
greater moment to the people of the border
states than could possibly be to the people of
Massachusetts,. He demanded for western
settlers the same measure of protection asked
fer on behalf of the red men, and contrasted
the indignities heaped upon them by Indian
outlaws. with the care and consideration Law
ished by the government upon their barbarous
red neighbors.
The petition was referred and the debate
ended. 1t was agreed to adjourn to-day until
Thursday.
The senate then took up apportionment
bills. After few remarks and criticisms
upon the measure it passed by viva voce
yote.
Bills were introduced:
&, By Senator Plumb--Amending the act of
1874, to encourage the growth of timber on
western prairies..
By Mr.. McMillan-Toset apart portion
OF Montana Territory for permanent reser-
walton for Piegan, Blood, BIackfeet, Gros-

All you who glory in the name of stalwart

you cannot wipe it of You have been dealt
with very tenderly, touching your grave re-
sponsibility for this crime, but everybody

relves in your innermost souls. It was your
abuse and denunciation that ''iuspiredn Gui-

necessity" and you Will not longer be per-
mitted to hide the stairs upon your hands or
distract attention from them by raising dust
around the heels Of Blaine, by throwing mud
at Sherman or heapiug ridicule On me. Your
crime was not merely the murder of man--lt
was the transfer of the government BY murder
to the hands of faction of the party, which,
if the question could have been submitted to
the people at the time it was done would not
have received ore vote in 1000.
There is good deal of truth in all this.
