The Military Conqueror of The
Confederaey.

There is an effort being made to
secure the names of every Confeder-
ate bondholder, with the amount of
each bond held, and have the name
of the holder and the amount of bond
sent to No. Is, Exchange Place, New
York City. The purpose of the
movement is not clear, but it is hint
ed, that when the rebel government
was broken up it was the owner of
large quantities of military stores in
England, all of which had been paid
The goods were not perishable and
to-day are worth S40,OO0,O00 dollars.
The goods having been paid for, it
is claimed belong to the assets of the
Confederacv. II the Confederate
bondholders could secure the Si0,-
100000 assets they would realize
something. 1t is estimated that there
are S300,000,000 Confederate bonds
among fnapciers. Ii it Is true that
the Southern Confederacy owned
large quantities Of arms and military
stores In England, such goods, under
the circumstances that surrounded
the organization of the Rebel gov
ernment would be contraband goods
and should fall into the possession
of the United States of America.
What financial rights haYe the bonds
of the Confederate government as
against the rights of the Washington
government which the Confederacy
was organized to overthrow Con
gress should find out the truth OF
the report, that large quantities Of
military stores owned by the rebe
government still remain in the hands
of the people from whom they were
purchased to be used against the
national government, and if the re
port is true, steps should be takeI
to secure them. Suppose that th'
Southern Confederacy had been
success, United States bonds woulC
be worthless, who is the man tha
believes that under such circumstan
sces United States bondholders woult
be allowed to claim anything, in an,
part of the world, that belonged t,
the United States with which to pa,
the dead bonds? Successful Con
federates would declare such man
political and financial idiot. 10 tn
victor belongs the spoils." tits tru
chat a certain percentage of the Il
gal fraternity would like to split
hair Just here and raise the questio
that if the United States Government
appears as the administrator of th
dead Confederacy and demands til
property of the rebel government,
renders itself liable for its indebted
ness. The United States is the mil
.tary conqueror and not the admin:
traitor of the Southern Confederacy.

stead, they must have money enough
to buy team, farming implements,
and build some kind of house in
which to live until he grows a crop,
foresight and the want of means is
the cause of so much suffering in the
winter on the frontier. New men are
finding out that the improved blood
ed stock on the range will not stand
the hardship of the wild stock of
years ago, thousands died this win
ter, but still stock-men go on keep
ing thousands and ten of thousands
in herd, depending on Buffalo grass
to tide them over the winter. Buffa-
10 grass is a fine, short, early grass,
that mats closely together and keeps
green at the roots, it is good feed if
they can get at it, but the SHOWS Of
late years cover it up. Last year we
shipped 311,3 cars of stock from
Kansas City. In 1885, in Topeka,
Kansas, we ground 4,5000,000 BUSH
els of wheat, made 2S5,000 barrels of
flour. There is an immense mill, or
elevator as they call them built by a
Mr.. Lider, of Chicago. l do not know
its capacity. All roller patents leave
very poor bran. Kansas stands first
as a grain growing state, in quality
and average yield per acre, while her
native grasses afford feed for the
millions of stock that roam over her
four hundred miles wide pararies and
almost every acre of our fifty million
acres, is capable of being used for
something to grow on, such as corn,
Chinese sugar cane, cotton, wheat or
pasturing.

never go into a Legislative hall, but
/ think of Colfax remarking in the U.
S. Senate during the war, that he
believed if a resolution was introduc-
ed for them to so to Heaven some
fool would object to it. !" Many good
bills are introduced, but their pro-
gress is as slow as worthless ones.
Our merchants are having better
trade this year than last, and are
their spring stocks. We
are to have several new railroads
next summer and the Santa Fe rail
road is going to enlarge their works.
We are all looking for very lively
year. Many buildings are being con
tracted for next summer

CHARLESTON, s. c., Nov. 5-During tho

day at twenty-six minutes past twelve
O'Clock, all Of the public schools were in
session. At the most of the white schools
the scholars stood the shock pretty we'll,
but at several of the colored schools quite
panic took place. At the Bethel Church
Colored School, during the rush which
was made for the door, three children
were thrown down and trampled
upon, and little girl, who jumped
out of the window, was seriously in
jured. In another OF the colored schools
several more of the scholars were injured
by falling plastering. None Of the injured,
however. are fatally hurt The disturb
ance to day was very severe at Summer
yille, and was sharply felt throughout the
1t was also felt as far south as Savannah,
and as far north as Lynchburg. At Savan-
nah there was considerable excitement,
and one or two of the public schools
narrowly escaped panic. In this city no
serious damage is reported beyond the
cracking of few bri K walls and the tum-
bling down of few ch mneys. To-day's
shock is variously estimated at from
thirty-fve to forty-fve seconds dura-
sAoh' Aho uilcCUiOH VI WdNo was
from south. to north, and the mo-
ton was Of compound character,
up and down and from side to side. AL
though there has been no interruption to
business in consequence Of to-day's disturb
ance, there is manifest a very general
feeling OF nervousness, much more SO than
was the case during the shocks of two
weeks ago. No further shocks to Q 80 p. m.
The fears felt this afternoon of rise in
the sea level on account of to-day's shock
coming apparently from the ocean, have
been so far without any realization.

quake shock was experienced in this city at
1920 p. M, rocking buildings, knocking
down loose plastering and causing people
to flee from their houses to the middle OF
the street. The shock lasted fully forty
seconds, and was accompanied by the
usual loud roaring, and was second only in
energy to the great quake Of August 81.

The Late Election,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-There can not be
made all accurate table statement showing
the political divis ons of the House OF Rep
resentatives. OF the 1924 members included
in the list the Republicans have 1853 mem
bers, the Democrats 1877 and the Knights Of
Labor candidates four. This gives the
Democrats ear majority Of twelve
over the Republicans and a majority
of six over all opposition. In the
Rhode Island district Republican wall
probably get through at the next election,
SO that the Republicans will have l5i men,
bers. 1t must be borne in mind, however,
that two of the four Labor candidates
elected, not more, are Democrats, and
will go into a Democratic caucus On the

tives.
