ALTURAS SHOULD HAVE 1T.

The TIMES has already minated
that the coming Republican Territorial
Convention would be welcome on
Wood River. 1t will now 90 further,
and say that, unless it is given to AL
tnras land to Haley the disappoint-
mont that will be felt will be de-
moralizing in the extreme. 1t was
Alturas county that redeemed the Ter.
ritory from the grasp of the Mormon
lovers and friends of monopolies, and
the, hardest kind of work and greatest
sacrifices were necessary to accomplish
it. The Republicans of Alturas are
therefore entitled to the best consldera-
ton at the hands of the committee;
and il their wishes are not fulfilled 1t
will be impossible for them to engage
in the campaign with tie vim neces-
sary to secure success.

ENlER LAND NOW, If YOU WANT 1T.

The bill repeating the timber Gull
ture, desert land and presumption
laws passed the Senate June 80, and
was returned to the House, where it
originated. 1t now only awaits the
Presidents signature, to become a
law.
Persons who have been thinking Of
entering land under either of the
above laws must act at once, if they
wish to make entries. AS soon as
the bill shall he approved by the Pres.
ident, the District Land Officers will
be compelled to refuse all applications
for entries.
There is still much good land on
Camas Prairie and in the Lost River
region that can be taken up, and now
that the laws referred to will be multi
fled or repealed, the existing entries
will be much more valuable than be-
fore.

funds for other purposes. such as those

funds for other purposes, such as those
mentioned above. 1t has been extreme
ly economical with respect to the de-
fenses OF the seaboard-during its
greatest prosperity that subject has
rarely been mentioned. 1t hiss sduan-
dered millions on whisky and other
rings and for the benefit of. itself; but
it has not spent dollar toward new
navy, better Indian policy, or the de-
lenses the country needs. But there
has been no let up to taxation. For
some reason or other nobody and moth
ing but itself has been benefited by this
curious economy. The war tax still
exists. The surplus in the Treasury,
with all the misapplied extravaganza
and misdirected economy of the party,
still exists. Business is dull. Labor is
i'll paid or without employment. 1t is
estimated that there are Si00, O00, 900 OF
Improbable money in the Treasury;
but there are hundreds of thousands OF
men, anxious to work. with their hands
in their pockets, and with but faint hope
that in due season they will find there
the money which good government new
er fails to distribute among those who
deserve it. Thus there is not too much
money, but there is the most rapacious
economy. There is not money enough,
but millions of dollars are scattered
with lavish hands where they can not
do the general public any good. The
business man finds himself crippled so
that he can not be enterprising and
can not pay labor the price it deserves;
and as for the laboring man he is so
squeezed that he demonstrates iu a
rather dangerous manner and one that
promises to be extremely vicious.
What this country needs is good gov
eminent. The reigning party has been
experimenting quarter of a century
and business and labor are more
crippled and more apprehensive year
by year. How would it do to have a
change? The army needs it. The
navy needs it. The tax payers need it.
The coast defenses need it. The Indians
need it. Is there an honest man OF
woman or business or labor interest
that does not need it? Not one.--M. y

Was Not His Arm.


The other evening a young lady with
q white Swise skirt, black Jersey jacket
and white cape and her beau were
promenadlng on. East Washington
street. when it suddenly became appar
ent to them that there was something
unusual about them. Men stopped and
hooked after them, girls giggled and
boys hooted.
'.Sylvia, what on earth is the mater
with everybody this EVENING"" queried
the beau.
II don know, and what is more,
don't care" snorted Sylvia.
"What ails them?" asked one girl of
another, just as they passed the unhap-
py couple.
s.Don't know, unless she's sick and
he has to hold her up" answered her
companion.
''1ake OF your armn' led a boy.
''Pull down the blinds!" shouted his
chnm.
.-Gosh! amt they lovin's" beloved
third.
The young man was angry and the
young woman was mad. and the boys
were following at their heels and say
ing all manner of impert nent things.
Two of the little rascals slipped up be-
hind her. and one OF them slyls put out
his hand, and as the girl and her beau
separated, the urchIn oawled:
s'Lordl, lie ain got his arm around
