Driving club names $50 as its class. and
the Cleveland Driving Park company has
agreed upon a 2:25 class. Each stake is
guaranteed to amount to not less than

the sum will run above the limit. The con-
ditions are: SIPS TO accompany the sub
scription, S125 payable June l. SIPS pay
able July l. and SIPS payable at Detroit

horses must be named and be eligible at the

A SECTIONAL FIGHT.

The esteemed Atlanta Constitution an
Milwaukee Sentinel are engaging in a very
wordy war which is daily growing in in
tensity. The retOrt courteous has long
since been passed, and the counter-check
quarrelsome has been hurled at the head Of
the Wisconsin offender by the Southern
journal. Ii is believed that the lie direct
is but a question of very brief time, and
that then nothing. unless it be the odd
hundreds of miles lying between them, will
prevent hostile meeting of the enraged
editors of the combating contemporaries.
1t seems that a Wisconsin man, having made
a tour through Georgia, and having been
most Hospitality received and entertained
by the wholesoued people of that state,
in due course of time returned to his home.
He then, forgetful of the obligations which
even the Arabs recognize to be involved
in taking salt with another, began to
write scathing letters TO the Senti-
mel, regarding the boOrishneSS, illteracy
and dissemination to progress evinced in
the South. The Constitution promptly
responded by calling attention TO the nu-
merOus garing errors in the Wisconsin
mans statement, and the latter replied by
reiterating them in more vigorous terms
than ever. The Southern paper fairly boilS
with indignation at this stage of the pro-
ceedings and proceeds to attribute all the
atrocities committed in Georgia during the
war to Wisconsin raiders. This state of
affairs is unfortunate. The time for petty
partisan filings at the South has gone
by. Only a person or paper ami
mated by blind and unreasoning prejudice
would continue to thus rake over ashes
whose fire has long since died out. The
South is no longer to be considered as an
enemy to be Knocked at, but as sister 10 be
encouraged. If she has faults they should
be pointed out in a spirit of kindly criti-
ciSm, not with a view TO derision. But the
Atlanta paper makes mistake in taking so
much notice Of what is at most an isolated
opinion. The North as 4 whole has far
different sentiments. 1t certainly can have
little respect for the opinions Of a man who
returns hospitality with abuse.

each other singly the contest will be pro-
tracted and terrible. If, however, the all-
ance of other nations has been secured by
either country, all Europe may be embroiled
and a combat almost without precedent
waged. But it is difficult to see inaSmuch
as the remaining powers are quite eompe-
tent to overawe either France or Germany,
why the same tactics which were
pursued with regard to the compulsory ac-
ceptance of peace by Greece, may not be
utilized in this case. A war which has
merely the desire to redeem national pride
has no excuse for its existence. Under
such circumstances other nations combining
should force arbitration of any existing diff
ticulties and compel the continuance of
peace. In any event, it may be said that
there is still room in America for large
number of immigrants. and that the best
time TO leave either France or Germany is
before conscriDtiOn begins

CONCERNING THE INDIANS.

An expression of opinion concerning the
Indian question from en- Eastern paper.
and particularly from one published IN
such a home of impractcable theory as
Boston Is noted for being, which dismlsses
all sentimental considerations and regards
the problem purely from n reasonable
standpoint is as refreshing as IL is unusual.
Remote from every opportunity OF judg
ing the question by actual expert
ence and blinded by the glamour
of romance which tradition and distance
lend to the ordinary estimate of the noble
savage, the Eastern theorists have Ordi-
narily regarded the Indian as be-
NJ very badly treated indeed.
The Boston paper, however, has con-
cluded 10 see the matter i'm n different
light. 1t ut last recognizes the fact that so
long rs the tribal relation exists and the
Indians are permitted 10 hold possession of
immense tracts of land which they
cannot utilize even if they desired
that there is little chance for the fading
away of all those characteristics which rem
der the red man such an unpleasant con-
trast TO his civilized brother. To no rea-
sonable person can there be any doubt that
the Indian lands should be allotted in sew
crafty. These lands now amount 10 l2S.-
600. 900 acres, while there are only 2GO, 900
Indians all told entitled to possess them.
Should each Indian be given 100 acres there
would remain over 100. 600. 900 acres open 10
general settlement which might be disposed
of and the proceeds devoted TO the material
advancement Of the former Indian owners.
The Indian would thus be in possession of
all the land he could possibly Use and could
be made more nearly self-supporting than
he ever has been. ''rO this complexion
must it come at last. 4" and the sooner 1t is
so arranged the better will it be. both for
the Indians and the whites.

"KILLED, ny STRIKERS.
Much Damage Done 70 Engines at
DeniSOu. Tex.

DENIsoN, Tex, March 21.-At o'clock
this morning the watchmen at the round
house were surprised by the appearance of
about $50 masked men, who commanded
them to keep quiet. The watchmen
ten in number, were taken up and carried
10 the shop Office, where guard was put
over them. and they were ordered to re-
main. After placing the watchmen under
guard, the leader went to the middle of the
tuTn-table and said: Men, you know your
duty; do it." At that every man broke III the
same direction, without the least bit of
noise. In about five minutes the speaker
returned to the Office and addressed the
watchmen. saying: "Gentlemen. we are
much obliged to-yOu for your conduct and
wish to return our thanks. You are all at
liberty to go about your business.
Good morning" The watchmen
stepped out and not man was
in sight. They then discovered that
the passenger engine which was to
leave for Fort Worth this merning was
found with steam-cOck open. The hose
was cut fire dumped out and killed en-
tirely. In the shops the men found that a
large stationary engine had been removed
from its place. the water let out of the
tanks, hose cut, pins removed and engines
killed. 50 that

to bring them to life again. The damage
done to machinery was very great. Every
nasquerader carried large piece of iron or
other weapon, so as 10 be prepared for n
combat if the watchmen resisted. The
watchmen, seeing the size of the mob,
knew it would be useless to resist and
allowed them 10 do what they would. The
celebrity and quiet with with which the work
WIS done showed that the men had been
well trained and instructed. The watch
men have no idea who they were, and
those that were no masks were
strangers TO them. Master Mechanic
Clark and Foreman Fielder had been
working all last week making pins for
killed engines, and had about enough of
them. They had water carried to the en-
gines and wood placed upon them, so that
in very few minutes they could bring
them into the roads, and with the aid of
officers run out freight train.
But now things are in much worse eondi-
ton that when the engines were first killed
The excitement ran high this morning
when the news of the raid
became fully known. The as
pect of the strike is growing
worse and worse in Denison, and the one
absorbing topic of the day is the strike.
Business men, labOrers. professional men,
in fact every body. is being keenly hurt
financially by the lOng-cOntinued strike.

And winds his mighty arms around
The lofty pillars of the state.
From lips OF brass and hearts of stone.
Around him slaves and masters raise
Their songs of worship. fear and praise,
To Mammon pe-ched on Dragons throne.
He hears, and all his pulses thrill
Not TO the measure Of their song
To memories of want and wrong
And toiling in the prison mill.

And lead him forth and set him free?

WILL BLOOD TELLe

Blood will tell. That was the argument
Of DR.. TALMAGE's sermon yesterday. So
far as it relates to the physical character
istics there will be little disposition to con-
trOvert the eminent divine's statement. 1t
is well understood that in propagating
animals everything depends on the strain of
blood. The live stock breeders know it to
be a fact. And if it is true
of every other species of the animal
kingdom, it must be so of man.
But if, according to the teachings of the
Ology, it be true that the soul is distinct
from the body, and that it comes into eX-
iStence direct from the hand of the Creator,
then we fail TO see how the hereditary
argument applies to the moral nature and
disposition of man. Understanding as we
do the natural laws which govern the physi-
cal creation, we have no difficulty in recon-
Cling our belief to the blood-telling
theory, but in the absence of any explana-
ton of the spiritual origin of man, except
that the spirit life is breathed into the
human form by the Almighty, as was done
in the case Of the first man, we cannot
understand how the moral features of one
nature can be communicated to another bv
the laws of generation. With all due re-
spect to DR.. TALMAGE, and those who
think with him, it looks as if there will
have to be a reconstruction of theological
belief, or the heredity theory, so far as it
affects mans moral nature will fall to the
ground. 1t is the intellectual element in
man which distinguishes him from the rest
Of nn min
the case, there is no reason why
this distinctive element should be
made subject to the same laws which gov
eIn the animal kingdom. II is because
man is intellectual that he is responsible
creature. If he of all created beings is en-
dowed with intellectual gifts and made re-
sponsible for his moral conduct, why then
should he be supposed to be dependent on
the moral or mental gifts of some person
who lived before he was born? If every
tub is expected to stand on its own bottom
in the natural world, why should it not be
so in the spiritual? To say the very least
of it it is giving man mighty poor
chance in this world if his eter-
nal bliss or punishment is made
dependent on the unknown moral charac-
terstic of his great grandfather. There
are already too many hereditary pensioners
in this world who are attempting to go
through life on the credit of a respectable
ity they themselves are in no wise response
bic for. 1t is good deal better to let each
Individual understand that he is responsible
for his own moral conduct without any
sort of dependence on those who have gone
before or are to come after him.
