The Heating Killing.

The particulars of the killing of John
Heating by Jesse Cheney at Carbon Center,
as related 10 q BAZoo reporter: are as fol-
lows:
A quarrel arose between Cantrell, one of
the proprie,ors of the saloon OF Cantell &
Oliver, and man named Dodson, during a
game of dice which they were playing.
Cantrell claimed that Dodson owed him
twenty cents, and Doison insisted that sew
ersl of the chips in Cantrell's possession
belonged to him. At last Dods1n declared
that be would have the chips n he would
have blood. jesse Cheney, the barkeeper,
Just st this time interfered, and drawing a
revolver from beneath the counter leveled
il at Dodson and told him TO put the balls
down. Instead of putting them In the
rack, Dodson walked over 10 Cheney and
aid them on the counter. Joha Heating,
who was leaning on the counter Just at this
moment seized the revolver held ny Cheney
and exclaimed, DON'T shoot Cheney
attempted to pull the weapon OF, OF Keat-
ing's hand ard in some manner II was dis

eminent authority as In the case OF
Oklahoma. 1t must also be consid-
cred that while there are perhaps
5000 men who are ready to march
upon Oklahoma under the existing
conditions, there are many more who
are not willing TO array them
selves against the government and
their lives In their hands. But the
peaceable and law abiding farmers
who desire to remove to Oklahoma
and are restrained by the law, are GER
tainly entitled to a protection OF these
lands from the forcible occupation OF
more adventurous and reckless men
Oklahoma should be opened to all
alike upon equal terms and without
menace; but that cannot be done If
certain armed and desperate colonies
of men be permitted to take posses
sion, while families are prevented
from emigrating through fear OF
conflict with government authority.
President Clepeland's proclamation is
directed equally against the cattle
syndicates and the boomers. II it be
SO that any portions of the Oklahoma
lands are now occupied unlawfully for
grazing purposes, it as much the duty
of Gen. Hatch to eject the trespsss-
ers as it is to Keep out Couch and his
followers. TGe situation is critical
and unfortunate, bnt if it is to have
any political bearing, the responsible
ty rests upon the republicans, who,
for twenty years, have neglected 10
open this territory to settlement, and
not upon the new democratic admin
istratiun, whose duty it is to execute
the laws as it finds them.

The successful ending of the strike
is a cause os eOngratulation all along
the line, but in this connection, too
much praise cannot be accorded to the
brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers.
who so nobly encouraged their fellow
laborers to persevere in the course
they had marked out, and who showed
their sympathy in ways which were
all the more potent, since they were
self-sacriGcing. 1t is to this class of
railway employees also, that labor,
speaking in a general and comprehen-
sive sense, owes much of its methods
in combating with corporations and
monopolies, for they it was who first
conclusively proved that organized
and systematized labor is power
which, when it is carried out on the
plane of order. and law is a revClu-
tioniEiDg agent for the upraising and
elevating of the labor classes, ire
spective of nativity or creed, 1t is
true, as has been asserted, that the
L. connective brotherhood may not
have accomplished such a direct vic
tory in their differences with the rail-
way managers, but yet it Is also true
that had they not by their advance
in that direction shown what they
were capable of, the present strike
could not have held as a body SO firm
~ together. In IGNORING the brave
and manly fight of the strikers, just
over, do not let US forget t. commend
as well. their friends and hackers, the
brotherhood Of locomotive Engineers
and tiremeu.

Coincidence.

There are few old citizens OF Missouri
who eaI MT recall with what singular reg
ulsriiy events of vital imp6r. have &C.
CURED In ST. Louis on the 10; h day Of Nav
as far bsck as 1926. liz SEEMS from the
following, clipped from the Moberly Moui-
tor that that city finds a certain day filled
with singular coincidence in its history.
Why such things should be are mystery
worthy vi careful research:
THE circumstances that have shaped
The destiny of Moberly since yesterday
morning have peculiar siIDi6cance. The
18th OF March is certainly an eyentiul day
in the history Of Moberly.
Ga the 18th OF March, 1873, the great
strike OF the engineers began, when engines
were wicked, the depot and sli railroad
property had to be guarded by police from
st. Louis with btyoneted guns, and great
excitement and disord,r prevailed.
On tie 18th of March. 1882, the post
Office and other buildings for half blocks
length on Reed street were burned to the
ground and the whole heart of the city en-.
dangered.
On the 18th of March, 1885, the strike
inaugurated at Noberly, and which will
be known IN history as the greatest revolu.
ton of the kind In ancient or modern times
was ended.
On the 18th of March, 1885, the voters
Of Moberly marched to the polls and by
an almost unanimous vote declared in
favor OF the ordinance contracting foe
the establishment OF water works, which
will make the city book for the next Eve
years.
Hereafter keep your eye on the 18th of
81. Patrick. Its innovations have 20 far
redounded to the prosperity of Moberly in
final results, and may it long continue q
lucky day for Us. Don't forget the strikers
benefit tonight.

A SENSIBLE MAYOR.
A Hearty Endorsement OF Rick
mans Administration.

Chicago Herald, March IA.
The mayor OF Sedalia. Missouri was
first chosen for the place because OF
his enormous weight. Being the
largest man ia town it was thong ht
proper to make him the caief execu-
tive officer of the municipality. He
gave great satisfaction, and he has
been reelected, not so much because
he is a big man as because he is a
good man for the place.
If his decision concerning the
swearing ia of a lot of imported po-
licemen is fair indication of his men,
tai processes it is easv to understand
why the people OF Sedaiia are well
satisfied with him. He certainly has
correct appreciation of the Ameri-
can form of government and he is
not afraid to maintain his opinion.
The strikers on the Gould roads have
caused a blockade at that city, and in
order to dispense the mob and permit
the resumption of traffic the mayor
and sheriff applied to the governor
for MALTA, which was promptly for
warded. The railroad company
thinking to hel p the matter along,
employed large number of men
from a detective agency III Illinois
and seat them TO Sedalia by the first
train. Soon after their arrival and
after arms had been issued Ia them
they were marched to the mayors
office t. lie sworn in as special police
men, but tina, official promptly re.
fused o recognize them and declined
most empha.icslly to confer any power
upon them. Iae
MAYORS DECISION WAS HIGHLY PROPER
The %atchmen were not even citi-
zans of the state OF Missouri. and the
proposition to use them as police or
soldiers, contemplated the most OAtn-
sive kind of interleren with the ri ght
al self-goverDment. Sedalia Is a
town Of considerable Importance. Ii
has a police force, which may be in
creased at will for temporary purposes.
and the state militia Is already ON the
ground There was no more need OF
military force from Illinois. than
there was of one from Canada, and
the employment of the one would have
been quite as Objectionable and con-
trsry to the spirit of American insti-
tutioDs, as wQRId have been that of
the other. NE mayors refusal was
wise and patriotic.
No objection can be made to the
practice of employing these watchmeD
for the protective purposes, but there
are serious objections to maintaining
a private standing army in any one
city which may be marched at a mo-
ment's notice to any part of the union
and used by individuals without the
proper authority.

President Cleveland's proclamation
concerning the opening of the Okla
homa to settlers, is still being severely
criticised by those, who are reckoning
without their host and who do not or
will not understand the question in all
its bearings. In speaking of the mat
Ter the Kansas City Star has the fol-
lowing careful and complete statement
of the entire question:
"The strip of land known
as Oklahoma was re-purchased
twenty years ago f;Om tie Iu-
dian Tribes To whom it had Deen ceied
but it was for a specific puruose.
There was special agreement tnat the
territory should be used for locating
other Indians and freedn en-. There
was no absolute transfer of title TO the
government the property was ac-
CURED under conditions of trust. Sub
sequently is was decided by congress
that the land should Not he used for
the purpose stipulated. Then it was
that some other arrangement should
have been concluded with the Indian
tribes which had parted with it and
there is no doubt that q release from
the conditions could have been readily
negotiated. But during twenty years
congress has neglected to take the nee
essary steps to open the territory to
settlement. Can it be Justly con-
tended now that the president is cen
surable for executing the law as he
finds it /? 1t Ia his function to assume
the responsibilities of legislation
which congress has neglected, Can he
properly set the example of encourag-
ing a defiance of government author

that this strip of territory has been
withheld from settlement under home
stead laws, but the blame rests upon
congress and not upon the executive.
1t is urged that much of the land

settled by homesteaders while the In
dams still retained title to it. A

Story of a Chinese Cripple.

A-Keet was hunchbacked, small in
statue and in delicate health, and re-
garded with disfavor in consequence.
She became pupil in the day school,
and her heart, rendered more susceptible
by hardship and suffering, soon opened
to receive the peace Of Christ. Her con-
version was complete and Joyous one :;
she astonished the elders and pastors by
her deep experimental knowledge of the
truth. Her happy trust and conscious
ness of Christ's presence and help were
shown as her eyes kindled when she
spoke of His love to her and her faith in
His care and protection. Although
eleven years old when she appeared be-
tore the Session prepare DRY to uniting
with the Church, she looked like child
Of six; but in the pale, bright face up
turned there shone the light of peace that
gave unmistakable proof that the secret
OF the Lord had been revealed to her.
She distinguished herself in the boarding
school in general attainments, but es-
pecially excelled in the beauty of her
handwriting, and was able to assist in
teaching for few years; but, smtten by
disease, she was soon rendered helpless
and made 10 suffer months of agony
Her face was ever a picture of sweet
serenity; her great delight was to talk
Of Jesus and urge her friends to receive
Him. Through her prayers and tender
entreaties her mother was brought to
the Saviour. Her favorite passage was.
Come unto Me all ye that labor and
are heavy laden, and l will give you
rest, which she would quote as expressly
gwen for her comfort. Her pure and
sPirituelle face, upturned with eagerness
to receive the message of divine love.
her patient resignation and perfect
trust, were beautiful to look upon, and
showed what priceless pearl was found
in that frail body. Living with her
mother in the merest hovel, she never
murmured at her fate, but ever shed the
radiance of sweet and gentle spirit
through the comfortless room, and filed
it with the fragrance Of her Joyous trust
IN Jesus. Her last days were Frightened
by permission to have a room in the
boarding school, where, during vacation,
she was carefully tended by her mother
until the bright spirit took its glad fight.
