SUNDAY IN DODGE CITY.
MORE THAN CONQUERERS.

oSy Tor the position assumed. 1t is
dealing fair with all questions, and the
moral phase is one that deserves the
support of all good people. We shall
not devlate from course marked out.
The religious sentiment will be respect
cd, and will continue to find place in
these columns.
We are more than conquerers when
we subdue our prejudices and overcome
our trials. This leads US to the ser
mon of Elder Collins on Sunday even
ing last He read the 1888 verses of
the sth chapter of Romans, choosing
the text: ''Nay, in all these things We
are more than conquerors through Him
that loved US" He spoke of ancient
warriors who were honored, especially
when they were victorious. 1t seems
almost fabulous to read these accounts
They not only enjoyed honors of victo-
.ry, but great demonstrations en- their
return from victorious fields. The an
cient Romans regarded trophies as pre-
cious relies, and this regard is handed
down to this day. We find in our state
and national armories, flags and tro-
plies of victories He said in heaven
there will be honor for those who did
right in this world. There will not be
such as given armies but something bet
ter than all these
The minister said he had no doubt
the great enemy Of mankind-the devil
was deceived when beholding the
mourners. How little did he realize
that death would be defeated in its end
We look upon death as a terrible horror
The man who does not is wrong. When
we look to Jesus we are relieved Of the
horror of death. In the resurrection
the minister saw the grandest thought
of life. We do not comprehend this
great mystery-the resurrection. The
dead shall come forth-a wonderful
thought-spiritualized bodies placed be-
yond all the pains of this earth. The
thought is transcendently glorious He
said life in this world is made by the
enemies Of God as miserable as it can
be.
Thc parties referred to in the text
lived in pcrllous times. They were per-
secuted for speaking the name of Je-
sus. Their faith was tried, which did
not fail them. Principalities and gov
ernments could not deter them from
their faith and duty. They were not
At raid or alarmed. In their cells they
talked Of the Kindness of God, and
they felt free. Nowadays, Gods peo-
pie can worship everywhere, and can
bring good out of evil.
The true christian is a conqucror
over all trials He may rest assured
that his cause is real and he need have
no fear of the future He builds up
on a firm foundation, and he need not
be disappointed. The victory the true
christian gains is crowned with immor-
tality, and is eternal.

The Dodge City Democrat made its
appearance Tuesday morning, coming
in on the cold wave. 1t is dignifed
paper editorialIy, and well executed me-
chanicaHy. The editorials show the
gcnias of the editor, and they are pro-
ductions of real worth The Democrat
takes bold stand in favor of '.human
rights and free whisky and is total
ly against the prohibitory law. We do
not know who is the editor except by
common report, which credits Charley
Lane with the management, and Gen.
dryden, of the Governor staff, being
a contributor of bear stories The
new journal, like a new broom, makes a
clean sweep, with nothing to commend
it but its Dem ocracy, and ''filling the
long felt want" gracefully. Wait, I'M
til the paper has made record, given
way to popular clamor, and its refined
language with rough edges, it will then
appear as vulgar as other newspapers
We have no doubt the Democrat will
win the affections of the Democracy
and leave its competitor far in the rear
1t has good prospects Of success.
The Mayor, in the goodness of his
heart, allowed the dance halls to open
on Christmas and New Years eve. On
the latter evening difficulty occurred,
which resulted in the stabbing of Geo.
Miller by Al Thurman. The wound
was made on the left side near the heart
the knife penetrating to the depth of
three inches. The wound is serious,
but is not considered dangerous. The
officers found Thurman the next day,
he having eluded search. He was put
in the county Jail, failing to give a
bond of 81, 900 as required by Justice
Cook who held the preliminary trial.
No trouble has occurred at the dance
halls for long time, but the late affray
offers additional argument in favor Of
keeping these places closed. Whisky
and women are bound to make trouble,
and the only remedy is keep the dance
halls closed at all tines

the murderer IF young clearwater in
Sierra Valley, was known to be in
the locality, and could be arrested at
any time that the officers were dis
posed to do so. II. A. Mason Of

were absolutely without founda-

Wild Horses

Wild horses have become so nu-
merous on the plains that some of
the stockmen in the vicinity Of
Cheyenne have organized hunt
ing party whose object will be to
thin them out. The hunters are
provided with longrange rifles, feet
ponies and supplies and forage
enough to last all Winter, and they
will endeavor to make clean job
of it. These horses have existed
GA the plains for many years, but
Of late they have been increasing
very fast. They are quick to scent
the approach of foes, feet as the
antelope that may often be seen
browsing in security at their side,
and as unmanageable as the wind.
Native animals when turned
loose on the prairie soon become
wild, and if allowed to run with
out being disturbed breed very
rapidly. Horses continually break
away from their owners and join
the wild horses, and this is the
reason why stockmen ale aroused
over the subject.
