A FRONTIER ROMANCE.
The History Which n Recent Elopement
La Nebraska Emphasizes.

lOmaha Paper.I
The eiopement of Mrs. Laura Soper. of
Beatrice, Neb., with james Vance, a butch
er, brings to mind an interesting bit of
frontier history. Mrs. Soper's maideI
name was Laura Roper, she being the
daughter of the Hon. Joseph b. Roper, of
Gage County. In 1862 Laura was beauti-
ful girl OF eighteen and was engaged to
young train boss named Kelly At that
time there were no settlements west of the
Big Sandy, in Thayer County, except at
the military posts and ranches along Uncle
Sans highway. These ranches usually
consisted of a rude log house urrodnded
by a stockade, aud were from forty TO Il ty
miles apart Kelly started an establish
ment of this kind at Oak Grove, situated
on the Little Blue, in what is now Nuckolls
County. On the day of the fearful Indian
massacre, in August, 1864, Laura was going
from Spring Ranch TO Oak Grove by stage.
The Indians ON that day made a general
attack on the whites all along the travelled
road, from Julesburg clear east to the Big
Sandy, nearly two hundred miles, bands
of eavages springlng on the little
settlemencs simultaneously. The stage
riddIed with bullets, and the driver and
other passengers killed. the girl being car
ried Oft prisoner. She was taken to Oak
Grove. where the Indians dscoyed her low
er into conversation with the chiefs, and
then killed him before her eyes. From
Kelly's ranch the red fiends went to the
home of the Thanks family, where they
shot ten people, sparing only young girl
about Laura's size and age. Miss Roper's
friends, with the aid of the military, made
a long search fer The captives, but nothing
could be heard of them except when a row
ing scout or srapPer wonld occasionally
come In and report having seen two white
women held by the Utes. Two years alter
the massacre the gir,s were found living
with the Indians on the Arkansas River in
Southern Colorado, and in March, 1876,
they we're secured BY thu United States
troops They had been brutaily outraged

CURRENT COMMENT.

Philadelphia Times: 1t is the first
real, solid Thanksgiving this generation
of Democrats ever saw.
Syracuse Standard: Election frauds
in Albany and Chicago hint that the
South is already in the stirrup.
Cleveland Leader: The Conkling SEN
atoral boom has been pretty eifectually
bursted. 1t becomes more evident every
day that he could not command more
than three or four votes outside the DEM
ocratic members of the New York AS
sembly, who are twenty-six short OF a
majority.
Philadelphia Press: Mr.. Blaine may
not be candidate again, and probably
never will be. 1t was not by his own
wish or effort that be became candidate
this time. But anybody who imagines
that he and his friends can be counted
out as a great political factor of the fu-
ture will make a mighty big blunder.
Detroit Post: According to the Grand
Rapids Leader, Democrats all over the
South agree In declaring that the color
line is now wiped out" Possibly; but a
good many colored folks were ''wiped
out" first. Before accepting the LEADER
statement, the Post would like to hear
the opinion of the colored survivors.
Philadelphia Times: The kindly war
against the slaughter of birds for the pur-
OF d corating ladies' hats and bon
acts mas no reference whatever to the
wholesale killing and plucking of the
turkey for the religious purposes of this
national holiday. 1t used to be the eagle,
then for a few days after election it was
the rooster, to-day the turkey is the
feathered king

THE New York Tribune has been ac-
cused Of misrepresenting the returns in
New York State. The final canvass
shows, however. that that journal was
much more nearly correct in it's estimates
than the Times. the Herald or the World.
On the day following election these pa
pers gave Cleveland plurality IN excess
OF the Loaf which the final canvass gave
him Of from 62}9 20 $3.50. while the
Tribune was only 1854 out OF the way.
Had il been possible to prove the frauds
which there was abundant reason to be-
hsve we're perpetrated. Blaine would
without doubt have been elected.

AT a session of the Probate ourt for the County

Present, CYRUS T.. PERKINS,
Judge of Probate.
In the matter of the estate of Charles j. keary,
late of said City of Grand Rapids, deceased.
On reading and filing the petitition, duly yeri-
fed Of Frank f. Whitaker, creditor of said de-
ceased, praying the administration of said estate
may be granted to HIM:
THEREUPoN 1T Is ORDERED, That Monday, the
first day of December next at 10 o'clock In The
forenoon, be assigned for the hearing OF sa petit
ton. and that the heirs at law of said deceased,
and all other persons interested in said estate,
are required TO appear at a session of said Court,
then to be holden at the Probate office in the City
of Grand Rapids in said County. and show cause.
if any there be, why the prayer of the petitioner
should not be granted:
AND IT IS FURTHER ORDERED. That said petit
toner give notice to the persons interested in said
estate, of the pendency of said petition and the

tor Conger, to step down into the courts
Of the District Of Columbia. One notable
instance Of resignation for similar pur-
pose. in the case OF Senator Christiancy,
has been enough 10 satisfy the people Of
Michigan for ever. To precipitate
Senatorial contest in the State Of Miebi.
gan at this unfortunate period would be
most injurious To the party which has
done so much for Senator Conger, aud
which has right to expect SO much Of
him. But recently the party IN this State
has seriously suffered Ia Senatorial con-
test where few men were enabled To
take advantage Of the small Republican
majority in the Legislature to dictate who
should not be Senator. Happily they
were not able to say who should be-, but
with the bare majority in the present
legislature, and the presence there of one
Of the chiefest Of these malcontents, to-
gether with his well-kn0wn disposition to
have his own way at whatever cost, 1t
would have been serious calamity to
Republicanism in this State if Senator
Conger had resigned TO accept an office
merely because it would have assured
him bread and butter for life. To have
been Senator of the greatest patton of
modern times is 10 have had one OF the
greatest honors the world could bestow,
and no one should be elevated to such a
post who is not able upon occasion to be
a Roman of the Romans. Better that
Senator Conger should retire upon crust
of bread with water to an honored and
dignifed seclusion for the remainder of
his life, than to injure the party, bring an
honored name into question, and lower an
elevated position by being the first TO
scramble after mere life salary. The
Senator has evinced his sense of the
dignity of his position, and Michigan Re-
publicans owe him increased respect for
his manly and honorable course.

Ar the Republican primaries held in
New Haven the other night several Inde-
pendents had the brazen audacity to pre-
sent themselves and insist on a right to
vote. They were, OF course, promptly
''fired out" OF the meeting. An Inde-
pendent, it is becoming more and more
apparent, is brazen-faced bundle of
conceit, who wants to run two parties at
once. They went out of the Republican
party to purify it. so now let them stay
out that it may remain pure.

The free-thinking Governor of Ohio
