COPIED CONTENTS.
THE WAY THEY EXPLAIN 1T.

Henry Scroggins, editor of the Lex
ington Republican, made big mis-
take, or his friends did, in drawing
the color line in his candidacy for del
cgatc for the State at large. 1t is
sheer nonsense for a man to try TO
foist himself upon the party because
of his color. We do not believe in
discriminating against a man on ac-
count of color, and neither do we be-
licvc that he is entitled to an Office
because Of his color. Mr.. Scroggin1
was probably as capable of filling the
place as Mr.. Lewis, but lie should
have based his claim on fitness, and
not OIL the fact that he is Il colorcd
man.-Somcrset Republican.
YOUR UNCLE sANIAIY's HEALTH
Mr.. Tildcn's condition Of health has
been variously represented. There
need be, however, no further appre-
hension as to that matter, Judge
Cochran, formerly of Buffalo, New
York, but now prominent memler
of the Chicago bar, visited Mr.. Til
den, several days ago, and, in a state
ment made by him to the Chicago
Times, says that he found the old
statesman Gin excellent hcalth-in
better health, in fact, that he enjoyed
four years ago." and he adds. that
Mr.. Tilden's "only infirmity consists
in a nervous affection of the hands
Il kind of palsy" "Aside from this"
says Judge Cochran, "he is a hale old
man, with an immense amount of vi
tality and full of manly vigor." He
will be the nominee of the Democrat
ic National c Convention.-Sunday Ar

Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine.

The brilliant June number closes
the fifteenth volume, and the claim OF
his periodical to public appreciation
must, we think, be universally rccog-
nized. 1t is admirably conducted by
its talented and popular editor, T. Dc
Witt Talmage, ID. d., who has in this
number two most interesting articles
"Thc Resurrection" ant "Iard on
Others" and also n sermon "The
Sword Sheathed in Flowers" There
are articles (most of them beautifully
illustrated) by Rev George Il. Rider,
Alvin S. Southworth, G. A. Davis,
Alfreton IIervey, j. Alex Pattern,
etc, etc. The serial and short stories,
sketches, etc, afford pleasant and ed
flying reading. Many excellent poems
are contributed by Rev G.. ~. Wad-
dell, Amanda Il. Dennis and others
the miscellaneous articles are enter
tanning and instructive, and the illus
trations are profuse and in the best
style of art. The price is 25 cents q
number, or $3.50 a year, postpaid

The story of the Georgia young la
dy who runs away whenever things
are already for her wedding will be
received with astonishment in most
parts. The greatest difficulty hereto
fore in these United States has been
not to secure the lovely bride, but to
bring the trembling bride groom up
to the cratch.-Louisville Times.
A telegraph about the late Massa-
chusetts Democratic Convention
quotes one of the speakers as advis-
ing the throwing away of chair-split-
ting distinctions. This must be a
typographical error for hair-splitting
as it is only in Republican Conven-
tions that the delegates get to break
ing the furniture.-Louisvillc Times.
President Arthur attended the
play She Stoops to Conquer, at WAL
lacks Theatre. Most politicians in
pursuit of Office are ready to stoop
very low to secure conquest. Their
careers illustrate the distich from
which the title Of the play is taken.
"The PROSTATE lover when he lowest lies
But stoops to conquer and but knees to RISE"
There will be a good deal Of polti-
cal STOPPING between this time and
the meeting of the Chicago Conven-
tion.--L ouisvillc Post.

As an illustration of DOWNRIGHT ion

As an illustration of downright igno-
rance Dickinson justice carries the BAN
ner. As display of legal learning it is
a pitiable farce. That any man or set of
men must be governed by the law as in
terpreted by Dickinson methods is a burn
ing shame. To an outsider it might seem
better in q case Of this kind to phfticuIar-
ize, but we will save that till some future
time, merely stating the fact, Of which
every one having legal dealings at Dick
inson is cognizant, that the most of the
expoupders of the law there are so igno-
rant Of the rules, that even if they erred
wilfully they do not know enough to coy-
er up their tracks. We might be satisfied
to let the dead bury its dead in Stark
county, but that Billings county should
be under the judicial jurisdiction of such
mass of ignorance is more than we can
bear with equanimity. 1t is time We
reused frem our lethargy and demanded
q county organization 80 that we can de-
eide our own cases here. We cannot
possibly be in a worse condition and any
change will be for the better. We are
much stronger and Weather and better
able in every way to support a county or
ganization than is Stark county. The
time Is coming, and we hope very soon,
when we will have an efficient county
organization In Billings county. As long
as The Cow Boy is published we can
promise our readers that no such ignor-
ance can gain power in Billings as now
holds the reins in Stark. Dakota has
again and again been disgraced by a cor
rupt county organization and as far as
Billings county is concerned this will
cease. We are bound to have a county
organization and to have d good one, q,

Twenty years ago person who 4adyo-
Gated cremation was almost considered a
criminal. Ten years ago he was consid.
cred a crank or monomanic Of the first
water. Within the last five years, how.
eTer, there hasbeen 6 great change in epin,
ion concerning cremation. Thinking Inen
everywhere arc joining the ranks of ere.
mationists and in the very near future
we look for legislation on the subject, re-
quiring the incineration at least of per
sons dying from contagious diseases.
Experience has amply demonstrated
that the most fruitful source of conta-
gion, especially in the south, is directly
owing to the germs arising from infected
bodies. How long shall the living suffer
because Of the foolish prejudice against
cremation2 1t is time the law stepped
in and protected its living citizens. In
this part of the country where we are not
crowded for room and where there are no
contagious diseases to speak Of crema-
tion is not SO much Of a necessity. In
the crowded cities, however, the living
are constantly surrounding and oyerrid-
ing the homes of the dead. That this
leads to the spread of any contagious dis
ease whose victim may be buried there is
now beyond all doubt. Here, then, is
where the reform should begin and where
it doubtless will very soon. Every coun-
try in Europe now has legalized Gre
nation and any legislation passed in
this country can find plenty of foreign
precedents. We are heartily in favor of
the movement which has lately received
a fresh impetus and our columns will be
always open to communications on the
subject. 14siBS 7-sga y-. ..ly
