State .ud were purchased ct that time By himself
w. C. Parsons Hamilton Disston and William Hill

one purchase from the Florida Land and Improve
msnt Company.
They include Thousands Of acres of the best Or
ange Lands In the State other Thousands Of supe-
rior lands or vegetables and general farming. and
sma Ter tracts of good prairie grazing land.
Most oil these lands are rolling, well timbefed
with pine and other woods, well waiered BY Peace
Creek and Its tributaries, and they extend from
north to south, from the vicinity of Partow to that
Of Charlotte Hareor. They lie on both sides OF
Peace Creek.
The Florida Southern Railroad, now nearly com

II will readily be seen that more desirable
body of land has been offered for sale in this
State.

FELLOWS of the don't-care-a-conti-
mental class need not look at this. We
are talking to Republicans: How would
you like to have a Democrat represent
loyal Republican Trego county in the
legislature for the next two years? As
the position is distinctively political
one, you would not feel like apologizing
to wondering enquirers by explaining all
about how Democrat was elected, would
you! In other words, you would not like
to give the Republican party of the coun-
ty away. Well, there is no danger of
any such embarrassment. But, then, be
at the polls, and make the Republican
majority heavy!

sas anyway? How do you like to see the
custom of Republican land registers
departed from, and all your fnalproof
notices given to partisan Democratic
press? Have you no longer any interest
in the Republican pioneer journals of the
New West? How do you like to see final
proof applications of old settlers, who
braved the burdens of western life in
their worst form, rejected on technical
grounds? If you really admire these and
their attendant expressions, we have
nothing to say beyond merely observing
that the Democrats seem to know which
end OF Kansas to come to to run things.

M1TcHELL's MIND.

Hon. w. 81. Mitchell, who was chairman
Of the congressional committee of this
distncs-in the splendid campaign of 1884.
writes from Arkansas to the Beloit
Gazette:
"Sink all minor considerations; don't
ask, is he prohibitionist, or an antiY lis
he stalwart, or haH-breedY but simply
is he true blue republican; 'one who, if
old enough, stood in the ranks and helped
uphold the old flag OF the Union, in the
times that tried mems souls" Such men
can always be trusted, as rule, no mat
ter what their private opinions may be on
matters of local interest

assured, in such manner as to believe it.
that Mr.. Baker has 800 acres of land in
Collyer township, has invested there all
bus money-some $3,0OO-and has on the
land about sixty head of cattle, a comfort
able, well-6nished stone house of two
rooms, and about thirty acres broken, on
which he raises this year as good corn as
was raised anywhere in the Banner region:
and ne, last spring set out more than 1000
tree cuttings on the homestead for wind
breaks for fruit trees. This, it seems to
us, is sufficient to refute this story.

THE Dogs DIRT.

We have it straight that the newest
editor of the Tribune will labor long and
loudly this week in defense of his charge
last We K, that We were drunk at Mill
brook while we were delegate to con-
vention.
Elsewhere in this issue, we state that
we never were drunk at Millbrook or any,
where else while we were delegate to
any convention. AS to the Millbrook part
of it, there are many men in Wa-Keeney
who know the facts in this matter, and we
are willing more than willing-to let
them decide the case-but what does this
Hotchkiss know about this or any other
case out here! The convention alluded to
was held tue years ago last June-before
he thought Trego county dirt was good
enough for him to spit upon! Why don't
the dirty dog make some of his charges
in connection with our business habits in
Wa-Keeney, where we are known the best?
Why don't he show up our bad citizen
ship? Why don't he show up our igno-
rance? Why don't he show that our OPP
ponent is better friend of Trego' county
than Tilton is? Why don't he show that
Tilton is lazy, thriftless, destitute of
laudable ambition, rake-a thing who
ought to be taken out and hanged, in
stead of being permitted to live to see the
result of the election next Tuesday!
We are surprised at Hotchkiss's
moderation, knowing him to be the po-
itical strumpet of few designing warts
who really ought to be able to say some
thing.
Let the battle begin.

us correctly-remarked to a political
chum-bum last Saturday evening: "You
must stir Bestor up. He is not doing

long enough to know that all the work he
could do would not begin to be worth the
pains. In other words, Mr.. Bestor has
lived here long enough to know something
of the political outlay.

A VOTE against the Republican
ticket is an arraignment of the
county convention which placed it in NOM
ination. It was convention of repre-
sentative men. Its proceedings were
harmonious. Its action is entitled, by
every rule of fairness, to the united sup
port of the Republican party.

POSSIBLY AN IDEA.

It really seems that Cleveland meant
something when he issued his order
to Federal Office holders to let pol
itics alone severely. At least, we judge
this to be the case from the fact that Mr..
Benton, q. s. district attorney for the
western district of Missouri, has been
suspended from Office for making polit-
ical speech in Kansas City a few nights
ago in behalf of the election of Mr..
Philips, Democratic candidate for con-
gress. And Benton is nephew of the
great Missouri statesman, Thomas H.
Benton.
Democratic Federal Office holders in
Kansas now have guide. Senator
ingalls, will hear from them and see Cleve-
land about the matter if they do not at

WHY WE ARE A REPUBLICAl

Among hundreds of substantial reasons
why we are Republican are these:
Because the Republican party resisted
the spread of human slavery.
Because the Republican party kept the
Democratic party, as party, from de-
stroying the government, and, as re-
suit, freed every slave in the United States
of America.
Because Democratic brains had never
produced a monetary system of any sta
bility.
Because the Republican party found an
empty national treasury.
Because the Republican party produced
the greenbacks, with gold as basis of
redemption, and thus gave to the nation
its first and only safe monetary system.
Because the Republican party gave to
the people the homestead, pre-emption
and timber-culture laws, while the Demo-
cratic party opposed their passage.
Because the laws of congress which
guide the destinies of our nation are,
with scarcely an exception, the work of
the Republican party.
Because the only planks in the national
Democratic platform since 1860, which
any considerable number of people can
endorse, have been stolen from the Re-
publican platforms. Look, for examples,
at the Democratic policy regarding the
constitutional amendments, numbered
thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth, re-
spectively.
Because the pension laws are of Repub-
lican origin, born amid Democratic oppo-
sition.
Because the Republican party has had
to teach the Democratic party that even
they must rise from free trade to tariff
for revenue.
Because Cleveland began his work
where Buchanan left off his work.
Because the national Democratic party
is the nations foe-if not Intentionally
just now, then because of ignorance.
Because the Republican party is the
birth of the great commercial North.
Because the commercial North is pro-
gressive, and sustains as its political in
strument the Republican party.
Because the reasons already given are
merely reflex of the general action of
the Republican party, against which the
Democratic party can file no claim which
can stand for moment in court of the
people of the land.
Every vote cast against the Republican
ticket is an endorsement of Democracy.
Local dissentions should be thrown to
the winds. If the Republican party is
right it is imperatively right to vote the
Republican ticket. There is not a Re-
publican in Trego county who, after the
smoke of the battle has cleared away,
will not feel better for having supported
;he party which he calls his. This fact
applies with equal force to him who may
aspire to position and to him who has no
such aspirations. We live in Repubi-
IAN climate, on Republican soil. It is
safe to be consistent with nature.

WlTHCRaFT AND MURDER.
Singular Developments in Regard to the Recent
KILLING OF CuiTy White near Bishopyille.

SUMTER, juno 29.-Aftcr considerable
difficulty have at last managed to CLEAN !,
few facts concerning the murder at Bishop
Vile 1t seems that Venus White, the wife
of the murdered man Guilty, had been
having some intercourse with John Rem
bert, to which the husband objected. On
last Thursday night about ii o'clock Venus
was sitting on the steps of Mrs. SCOTS
house with Rcmbcrt, when her husband
approached Fearing his anger she fled,
and before she got into the house 4 pistol
shot was heard No Investigation was
made by the parties in the house until
the next morning, when Cuify White was
found il thc yard dead with Z bullet hole
behind the left car
Mrs. Scott, at whose residence the killing
took place, is an aged white woman, and is
known in her ncishEorhood among the
ncgroS as i witch. y few days previous to
the killing she had sold Venus White what
is known as :; coniure bag. Venus was
told that this would do her good, which
amounted to saying that it would put her
husband out Of the way so that she could
marry Rcmbcrt This bag is now in the
possession OF the sheriff, and the contents
consist Of 4 curious mixture Of sand, hair
and other things.
Mrs. Scott, Venus White and Philip
Davis, another negro woman who is also
accused of being an accessory to the fact,
are now confined in the county jail.-Cor-

Deba,ablc Point of Etiquette.

1t is always 4 dcbatabic point Of etiquette
whether hostess or guest makes the first
movement TO go to bed, and thus break ur
the evening gathering. The guest may be
overcome with fatigue from 4 days jour.
ney, the host may be fidgcting under the
strain Of entertaining and longing for the
guest to show some signs by Which he can
gracefully and Hospitality suggest that it
is growing late, yet neither quite like to
appear, as they think, impolite. In fact,
many visitors have suffered asouics in try
ing to be agreeable while the host and
hostess were doing their best 10 suppress
their yawns and to make conversation, '
until chance offered solution of the diff
Guilty There is, however, but one rule to
be followed in this relationship of host and
hostess and the hour OF retircmcnt The
host or hostess must always take the initia-
tive and say an appropriate word as to the
latencss of the hour and tie dcsirability of
going to bed.
