WE SHALL SEE.

The Oklahomers and the papers
backing them have been for years
cursing a Republican administration
for impeding their progress in an I'M
lawful effort, and that, too, in the face
of the fact that a Republican presi.
dent had begged Democratic house
through special message to do some
thing in behalf of the boomers. Now
again, the Republican senate ha:
passed bin which provides that the
Oklahoma district must be opened
and it only remains for the Demo.
cratic house 10 take action. Will they
do it? We doubt it. Next week q
Democratic administration, pure and
simple, viii be insugurated. If MI.
Clevelanfs attorney general should
take the same view of the legal phazes
of that question taken by the attorney
generals of the past, and we have not
the least doubt of it, Mr.. COUGHS le-
gal opinion 10 the contrary notwith-
standing, will the boomers pour out
their vials of wrath upon the Demo
cratic party? We shall see.

ST. JOHNS OLD ORGAN.

The Kansas Prohibitionist which re.
.ceived such a hearty support from
people in this city at one time, princi-
pally because il was denounced by the
EAGLE as a hypocritical fraud run in
the interest of the Democratic party
by an old copperhead, has this TO say
in late issue of some of the men who
supported it:
"Mr. Rev. a. ID. Campbell was the
president of the Kansas State Temper
ance Union. This organization, which
WAS non-political he made, for con-
sidera,ion, political, and delivered it,
so far as nc and his secretary, Trout
man. were able to deliver, TO the Re
publican state central committee. Now
he is rewarded for his dirt and Gov
Martin nominafes and the senate con-
firms him as acknowledgement with
rank of colonel. Next in order will
be an office for A. b. Jetmore, then
Barnard Kelley and Or. KrOhn.'

Washington dispatch: There prom
ises to be an interesting contest among
the aspiring Kansans before long. Ex-
Gov. Click is now making every eff
fort TO obtain the position now occu-
pied by Judge Mcfarland, of Kansas,
commissioner of the general land Of
flee. The governor will be endorsed
by the Democracy at large in his own
state, besides an extensive influence
outside. This, however, will interfere
with Gen. Charles Blsir's aspirations
for the commissionership of Indian az
fairs. Blair is backed by the Kansas
City Times and leaders of the Democ-
racv of eastern Kansas"

ITS EFFECT ON THE PARTY

ID. w. Wilder, in his correspondence
from Topeka to the Hiawatha World
expresses the belief that the refusal of
the Republicans in the legislature to
to submit either the question of re-
submission or of holding a constltu-
tionaI convention, will prove disas-
trious to the Republican party and re-
suit in repetition of 1882; whereup-
on the Atchison Champion and the
Topeka Capital, proceed TO ridicule
him, and laugh at such an idea. Sew
era! other prominent papers take the
same view as the World and must
share the ridicule. If threatened
dangers could be laughed away or
ridiculed down, many calanities in
the worlds history would have been
avoided. All the people of the earth,
except his own immediate family, rid
iculed Noah's warning of the flood.
The same men who are laughing now,
laughed consumedly at the idea that
ST. John could be beaten, or his vote
seriously reduced, in 1882. Even
though a party be strong and power
full, it cannot preserve its strength
by laughing At earnest protests from
its own memhers.-TrOy Chief.

Somehow.
Perhaps she was fretful, and ! didn't cara
Or perhaps did something that she couldn't

Or perhaps q & spression advanced in the air;
But however that be. the disturbance was
there,
And a storm began to brew.
At fir it mltteTei,
And hard words were uttered;
Then harder ami harder until things grew
Supremely unpleasant for each Of the two
And / came 10 think
We had reached the brink
Or thu grave Of friendship whose los We

So l legged her pariOn-what less could

And tie tempest's frown

And i: rGmui.i, AMI sighed.

Decline of Two Per Cent I'm
This Stock-Prices Close Generally
Mt a Decline.
NEW YORK. May 5.
There was heavy pressure to sell the list at the
opening this morning the belief that peaceful
settlement of the Anglo-Russian dispute over the
Afghan frontier was now assured and on reports
that the western railroad war was as far from SET
Element as ever. These reports, which were circu-
lated freely by the BEARS to the effect that the
meeting OF the managers of the roads interested in
the western pool which was postponed until to-day,
would be a stormy one and the indications pointed
to protracted war. The reports were received
with good deal of allowance by the more conser-
vative brokers, but many of the weaker holders
were frightened into selling and under their offer
iDgs the prices of the entire list went steadily down
during the first hour and half. At the lowest
point which was touched about 1880, the decline
ranged from n to IA per cent Toward midday
the selling ceased and the bulls went in and bid
prices up onally, which together with cover
ing by the early sellers caused sharp recovery.
Nearly the entire decline of the morning had been
recovered by 2 p. m In the last hour another
selling movement set in and part of the improve
ment was lost. The feature of the days dealings
was Lake Shore The stock extremely weak

All the Way From Kansas-A Conun-


drum.
Yesterday morning postal card addressed
to the sheriff of New Haven county was
received at police headquarters. 1t is from
the sheriff of Howard, Kansas, and gives
printed description of a prisoner they have
at that place. A question is asked in writ
ing: 'sDoes this seem to be your man Wood
ruff" AS the only Woodruff that the police
know of that is wanted anywhere is David
T. Woodruff, the California millionairel who
so deceived his relatives and friends in New
Haven short time ago, it is thought it refers
to him. The prisoner at Howard is telling
great stories about the wealth that is to be
found in California, but, judging from the
description, is not the New Haven Wood
ruff.
Captain Smith says that soon after he
went on duty as acting chief man presented
himself at police headquarters and offered to
deliver himself up, saying that there was
warrant out for his arrest The man was
Woodruff, but he was dismissed as no war
rant was out for him and he had done moth
ing to cause detention. Nothing has been
seen or heard of Woodruff since then.
