EMULATE X ANS AS.

The National Free Press, a Democratic
paper in Washington, makes these observa-
tons in its issue of December I:
We have said that ingalls, Of Kansas, was
the only bright man on the Republican side
OF the senate. Referring to him again, We
will say that we regard him rs one of the
best posted and most cultivated men in that
body, and conservative enough for safe
and cautious legislator. Irrespective OF
party we admire a man of brains. ingalls,
has them. How Kansas has done herself
tie credit of sending him to the Sen
ate has always been a mystery TO us.
A state has reputation and influence in pro-
portion to the brains she has in congress.
Not one man in five hundred in the state Of
New York can give the names Of its present
senators. The cause is obvious. No Kan
sas man Of any party ever need be ashamed
of ingalls,. We regard him as on the wrong
side Of the political fence, but his learning
and his cloquence have given prestige to his
state throughout the whole country, and in
the respects We have named he has perhaps
no peer in the senate. And we say this
much for brilliant man without regard TO
politics. We hope that in the coming sena-
torial elections some other political commu-
mites We could name viii emulate the state
of Kansas.

KINGMAN, Dec. Il.
Milton Pane, a young man % years old,
was accdently shot by IA companion, whose
name your correspondent could not learn,
while out jack rabbit hunting. The facts
are about a. follows: The two were about
eighteen yards apart and rabbit got up,
the gun being cooked, and bringing it
around toward the game, he must have
touched the trigger and when in fnll range
of Pane's face went off, and filled Pane 5
forehead, eyes and face full Of shot, one shot
going in his mouth and through the tongue.
The attending physician, DIR. Iancy, thinks
he will recover, but would give no opinion
as to his ever recovering his eve sight, so
swollen are the balls and lids that it is inn
possible to tell whether any of the shot have
penetrated the balls of the eyes are not.
Young Pane is single and model young
man. He is the son of Edward Pane, one of
the first settlers in kingman, and lives at
home with his parents. He is engaged in
the transfer business at this city. 1t is sad
but all hope for the best. The house is
filled with anxious friends. His companion,
il is said. feels terrible about the affair. 1t

in-pires disgust in humanity it i. the con-

failed in the House. 1t provides that
VII never the President shall! think prop
er, he may take measures t. obtain the
consent Of any Indians now on reserva'
tons aud shall sllot them land in sufficient
+ quantity to support themselves. None
are allowed to own such lands until the
exI ration Of twenty five year,, when a
nited States patent will he Issued to
them The IDEA Of the bill is also ulti-
matcly to abolish Indian reservations and
make the red men dependent upon them
selves If the hi passes the House IT
will, within the next quarter OF a century
add 100, 900 acre. to the public do

for presumption. 1t comprises some oi
the bot land in the country, but provides
that after each tribe Is allotted lands ia
.everalty, it- members are to be consider
cd citizens and Subjected to the civil and
criminal laws Of the State or Territory in
which they are located.
Senator Dolph had an amendment in
serted in the Bill providing that all pro-
ceeds from the sale of reservation lands
shall be invested by the Secretary Of the
Interior for the benefit Of the indians
and paid at the end Of twenty-five years
to them In the meantime the interest
is to be paid To the Indians to aid them
in maintaining themselves. No one Oh
jectod to the amendment, but Dolph made
short speech upon it. i'll which he said
it was proposed to prevent the Indians
being left, after obtaining title TO their
lands, without anything else
Senator Miller also made a short speech
upon the bill in which he expressed the
opinion that twenty five years was too
short time to allow iu which to make the
red men dependent on themselves, but az
the time may be extended in the judg
ment of the President, no change was
made and the bill passed.
We copy the above from the dispatch
es in the Oregonian OF the 28th of March
That paper Of the 18th contained the
announcement of the passage of the bill
in the Senate. But the provisions Of the
bill are better understood from the fore

6NEAKS AND 9TINKER6,

Every village of from 500 to 800
inhabitants, contains a few persons
who seem to feed upon some imaginary
or real misdoirgs Of their nei.hbors, and
who make it their business to pry into
and retail all the scandal their impure
imagination can invent Lewiston is by
no means free from this class, and one
would suppose that did they know how
much they were dctested and despised
by the more honest and honorable of the
community, they would feel the touch Of
shame at their practices. But long be-
ing accustomed to their dark ways and
meeting with no rebuke, they have be
come bold and fearless. 1t sometimes
happens that ladies have proper occasion
to visit neighborng family after night

men, who dog their footsteps to see where

can make out of their movement which
they can forcibly construe as imprudeni
they do so and make the most of it. Some
young men do this, and there is class
of women who do the same thing. A
proper woman Is in danger Of having her
reputation furnished by going out after
dark unattended, and in some cases if she
be attended, both are watched and logged
as though they were on an evil mission.
1t is true there is class of girls and
women who like to patrol the streets
nights to see what they can, merely out
of curiosity, whose standing would be
much more above suspicion if they would
be little more reserve in this respect,
