GANG AGILE

Kentucky is now completely torn

chivalry Of the blue grass State
would stand by the hero and clothe
his adversary with opprobrium.
But he counted without his host.
The young man has been, by bar
and populace, elected coward,
and the old judge a hero in not
taking life, which God. in his in
scrutible wisdom, gave. But all
of old Kentuck is broke up, all the
same. Some blackguards endorse
the assassin, while the populace
condemn him, and consequent upon
the social status of the assailed and
assailant, the fe yer still burns. but
the result will doubtless be that

barred and socially tabooed.

In our editorial and political ex

that the candidates for the Presi-

political party and perfect types Of
American citizens. All stagnant,

If you haven't heard from the
Bonito for some time, we are not
all dead over here; on the contrary
we are as lively as crickets.
The road boys arc quite jubilant
about their road, and expect to
finish it up about the middle Of the
week. They have had cold,
hard seigc Of it. No wonder they
are glad to get through. S. r.
Corbet and another gentleman,
were told at Nogal. last week, that
the road was finished. So on they
came. Both rode all the way up
the grade, with heavy top buggy
and never sweat the horses hair
But when they got near the top Of
the divide they found a missing
link. Fortunately the boys were
there at work and helped them
over the gap, and they went down
into the valley rejoicing.
Mr.. Huber has got his store
pretty we'll filled, and don't mean
to stop, but has gone to Las Vegas
after more goods. He has shipped
1000 pounds of Christmas ore to
Sccorro.
Mr.. Grsbendike is now pushing
things on the Chinaman. He has
bought out Elijah IIargis' place,
house ard ranch, and is now about
to build a boarding house for his
workInen, that he estimates will
take 5000 feet Of lumber.
Mr.. Bingham has bought a place
and is going to move in this vicin-
ity. More near ne'ghbors the
more the better.
The miners are all going down
on their claims, and they act as if
they meant business.
You will probably see the road
boys in the Oaks this week. Now
we can eat dinner at home, hitch
up, and get into White Oaks be-
fore sun-down, and not fret the
cattle. 1t will be nice for White
Oaks fishing parties. But don't
fetch any beans, for we have plen
ty of trout, or will have in q

PRESIDENT MAKING.


the two great political parties of
the country will present their res
pective standard bearers for the
Presidency. The Republicans will
meet, in National Convention, st
Chicago, on the 3rd Of June, and
the Democrats, in the same city, on
the Sth of July.
Meantime, a large majority Of
editors and politicians Of the coun-
try are employingl their time in
scanning the records of the several
candidates for the high Office indi-
Gated, with the view, not of giving
Cesar his due, but of supplying
their tarmories with weapons and
ammunition destinedA to carry de
traction, vituperation and calumny
against the character Of the repre-
sentative of the opposition.

ton, ID. G., and being privileged to

which, had, before going into

tee Of critics which met weekly, we
at one time during our engagement
concluded that the collation. and
presentation of facts relative to
the character Of Presidents since
the formation of our Government
to the then present, as held and
handled by the press and poIti,
clans of the current days, would
be interesting and instructive to
the reading public, and undertook
the task. Clothed with the privi,
lege of visiting the Congressional
library, and the Libraries of the
several departments, we carefully
scanned the record Of each Presi
dent as presented by cotcmporane
Gus writer's and speakers, and the
result was, that all, from Wash
ington down to Grant, had been
pictured as moral .lepers, wholly
untitled for any position of honor
or trust. We will, in a week OF
two, present excerpts from said
magazine article, giving authori
ties for the approximation history

or nearly all who have ever filled
