HENRY WATTERsoN, the apostle
of free trade nIourns as follows over
the Morrison bill: "a bin propos-
ing the most insignificant aud un-
satisfactory reductions of tariff, a
bill drawn for the purpose of uniting
the party on some measures of re,
form, bill that disturbes no interest
and does no harm, is rejected" etc.
And should it not be rejected?
Should not the party-making, demos
gogue politicians who are sent to the
capital to legislate for the people
but who spends weeks of time and
hundreds of thousands of dollars
cOnfessedly endeavoring to pass u
bill that IS useless to the people, "a
bill drawn for the purpose of uniting
the party" and never meant to be
anything but a bait to catch the
votes of the people whereby those
demagougues could hoist themselves
into Office. Should not such a bill
be defeated? Should not the party
that resorts to such schemes be &c.
feated? just so long as the Demo-
cratic party will allow themselves
to be lead by men who thus openly
and confessedly declare that they are
legislating to put party on its feet
and care nothing and do nothing for
the benefit of the country, just so
long they will fail of the one object
they seem most to desire. When
the Democratic party goes to the
helm of our government through
The benefits they have wrought for
the peep.e, through honest and use
full legislation, through careful exe~
cution of their official trusts, through
an honorable straightforward work |
for the benefit of the whole people
and not for the selfish interests of a |
party and when they do all this
better than the Republican party
can do it, then we are ready to say
"God speed them" but not till then.
Nor do we think that we shall be |
called upon to say it soon, if that
party pursues its present course of
egislating to get itself into office.

THE adherents of lie defeated
Morrison bill have resorted to tue
usual practices of the Bourbon ele-
ment of their party, and are apply
irg all sorts of epithets to those
Democratic Congressman who had
the semerity to be Democrats and
vote as they pleased. LIARS" pal
troons," "scoundrels,' are some of
the terms that the Morrison men are
applying TO their fellow Congresa-
men who had stamina enough to
place their votes alongside of their
convictions, and an attempt seems
10 be being made to so disgrace them
that they or their success sors will not
dare vote with their convictions on
another occasion. 1t all seems to be
sort of bulldozing process.
The enraged and defeated Morris
son bill men will make nothing by
this course of procedure. The con~
stituency of the men who voted
against that bill VIII back them, and
when those Congressmen are read
out of their party, because they dared
oppose one of its pet, bat fallacious
doctrines, their constituency will go
with them.
The old hide-bound idea that
man must vote with his party if the
devil were on his ticket, il dead and
its carcass so far behind the intcllI>
gence and progress of the day that it
will never again appear at the 'front.'
even by the assistance of so power
full stimulants as tie Democracy is
able to apply. No party in the Unit
ed States will ever be able again to
hold its followers to the blind and
blundering adherency of the past.
The country has become too much
civilized for that kind of work, and
bulldozing will not restore the dem>
agoglc splendor of tn is early prac-
tice.

The Rig and Little Cattle Men.

In response to an inquiry by Con-
gress, Secretary Teller has submitted
a report from the United States
surveyor of the district comprising
Northwestern Nebraska, Individ>
urals and companies having large
herds of cattle in that remote region
have fenced in immense tracts of
land, so arraDg ing and com bining
their oper ations as to inclose the
chief water courses, and fencing out
or fencing in, the ranches and pas
lures of the smaller owners of stock.
The latter are literally frozen out
and compelled to sell their animals
for what the cattle king choose to
pay them. 1t is useless for them to
attempt to move to other localities,
for the same state of things will be
found there. These treSpassers are
thus keeping out of occupation vast
areas that would Otherwise be soon
settled up by a large number of
thriving citizens, beginning with
limited means. The same or other
parties are stripping the wooded
tracts of the timber wanted for the
adjacent regions, without apparent
interference from the proper authors
tiles. 1t is the duty of Congress to
take instant measures to put an end
to this state of things.-PrGtrie

Not that we have nothing 10 mar
ket-we have more than ever-but
what is 1t worth TO the valley if it
cannot be disposed of quickly, and
at some reasonable price? More
than a year ago we talked railroad;
made motions, but did nothing. The
result followed that Immediately
after harvest, when our valley and
city, when our farmers and mer~
chants and business men should
have been flush with monty they
had nothing; debts remained un-
paid; notes continued TO draw
high late of interest; more ranches
were mHrtgaged and general stagna-
ton in business resulted. The same
condition of affairs, but greatly in>
tensified, are almost certain to pres
vail this year, and one of the rea>
sons will be that our citizens have
not thoroughly organized and
pushed the railroad matter with
determination to succeed, to have
road.
The moment cars run into Pres
colt. just that moment California and
eastern -four and barley will take
the price of Maricopa flour and bar
ley. cutting off all our northern
trade. We can manufacture here in
this valley as fine flour as was ever
made into a loaf OF bread, but we
must have a market for it before it
is worth anything to us.

of the riot as arising from the facts
that large number of the better

Have your stock well sheltered.
Don't leave wagons, tools and
farming implements exposed to the
weather.
Don't hang harness in the dust,
nor forget to oil axels.
Never go 10 town without BUSH
ness.
Never be stingy and penurious,

ceived a premium of $500 for the
best cotton raised in the Territory.
The gentleman who produced the
cotton regards our valley and eli
mate as all that can be desired for
the business, and as a proof, poinl S
to the quantity of cotton raised per
acre and lis extra quality. From
i've acres Mr. Hardwicke gathered
$500 pounds, or an average of 676
pounds to the acre. The staple is
long and fine, and the cotton will
recommend itself at a glance as be~
ing sup ericr in fibre. The labor re-
| quired TO produce this crop is no
more than is required to produce a
corn crop, and it can doubtless be
put upon the market at about the
cost Of shelIed corn.
The present market for cotton is
doubtless California; one cotton and
woollen mill on the MERGED river is
already using considerable quanti~
ties of cotton, and another similar
ard extensive mill in course of erec>
ton at San Leandro, on the east side
of the Bay of San Francisco. 1t is
expected that cotton win be OBJ
tanned in Texas for this latter mill
as large quantities will be used AS
we have on a previous occasion
pointed out this market, so now we
again refer to it as the place to dis
pose of all the cotton our valley can
produce. Being nearer than Texas
we would naturally have the prefer
ence, provided we can furnish the
required quantity, which is matter
entirely left to tAe enterprise of our
farmers.
Cotton raising should pay, and we
believe it will pay far beyond any
cereal crop now produced in the val
ley. Sea Island cotton, which the
cotton raised by Mr.. Hardwicke ap-
proaches very nearly, ranges from
25 cents to 35 cents perpound; say
his is worth 90 cents per pound, snd
we have a gross return from an acre
of S135-6O. Ordinary grades of
cotton are worth in the market to,
day about II cents, which at MIR.
HardwiCke's average prediction,
would produce gross return of
$74 SO. The cost of production and
preparation for market, including
delivery at the depot on the line of
the railroad, could certainly be Inn
tied to $50 per acre, leaving a clear
profit Of about $40 per acre-at
least four times the profit now made
per acre on grain,
There is certainly a wide opening
here for the enter prise of our set
tiers. A few acres should be put in
by each rancher the coming year,
and experiments and observations
made as to the particular methods of
cultivation that our valley may re-
Guire, that gradually we may grow
into an important cotton producing
region, and once known that cotton
is grown here in quantity and fine
quality, there will be no trouble
about abundant markets. Next
year should see cotton crop in our
valley of 100000 pounds, and we be-
lieve 1t will, as the attention of
many of our observing ranchmen
has been directed to Mr.. Hard
wicke's success.
