E. church tn, married the heroine
to Mr.. Mills and at the same time
performed similar ceremony for j.
r. holland and Miss Alberta Cobrln.
The marriages took place at the
home of the latter named BRIDE, on
account OF some objection having
urged on the part of Miss Longs
family to the match. The couples
came to this city on short bridal
trip, and returned to independence
last evening. Mr.. and Mrs Mills
will make their future home IN Six
Mile in the eastern part of the coun-
ty, where the groom is employed on
stock farm. Miss Longs mother
had moved to independence since
the heroic deed of her daughter had
brought her into some prominence,
and reward and other gifts had been
bestowed upon her. After several
opportunities offered Miss Long to
attend college, only the one at War.

General manager Potter, of the {.
b. & K. &. railroad, Is in this section
now looking after the southwestern
extension of their road. Just where
he is quartered seems to be unknown,
publicly at least. 1t is supposed that
this is ''still hunt of Col. Potter's
and will he the last Investigations to
be made preparatory to commencing
their proposed extension, as the de-
sire of the company is to go forward
to the Indian Territory with as little
delay as possible, in order that COM
petitors may not have anv advantage
OF them IN possessing the traffic in
that country.
The Globe.Democrat of a recent
date said:
"When General Manager Potter
has concluded his tour of inspection
OF the southwestern extension of his
system, which will not be less than a
week or ten days, he will turn his
attention to the St. Louis project.
The southwestern plans were well
matured when the strike occurred
and put stop to the work, and they
are naturally first to be taken up now
that the company has decided to re-
new active building operations.
There is no suppositIon as to the
intentions of the Burlington, which
is fully determined to reach the
Indian Territory in the front rank oi
the procession of railroads now
moving that way. The aggressive
ness of competing lines has spurree
the Burlington into active renewal o
its building projects
We notice proposition for an ex
tension of the Burlington through
Paola and other portions of Kansa
to the southwest, and it is barel
possible that this means an entir
change of operations in the extension
business by that company, still. tn
possibility OF an extension throug
: this section as previously proposed
is such as to encourage us in tn
belief that it would not be abandone
excepting for very good reasons, an
| we cannot see how a route, to b
used by the company as trunk line
5 and a direct thoroughfare to Chicag
from the southwest, can pass mort
= and west of Kansas City With a
t the advantages this line possesses
: together with the substantial improvt
ments, etc, at CarrolltoE, OF the
. line headed this wayne cannot thin
but that the COMPANY will bridge tt
E river at Waverly and pass this dire,
: tIon,in order to open up a new worl
OF trade for them and the Chicae
i market.

!. Another reason for our want

>
OF faith is, that several of the demo-
cratic papers in the north part of the
district put the matter in a stronger
light than we do. We know it is
charged that these are biaseG by
disappointment, but as to bias be-
tween revenge (if it be so.) and
gratitude (from selfish motives. } we
have seen much to deplore in both,
and the inside kettle ha, no advan-
tage in calling the outside pot black.
The outside man is no more liable
to do dlsreputable acts to get in, than
the insiders to keep in. That is not
a suitable argument for ms or would
be iLs.
There are many other sad features
to this muddle, but we have gwen
enough to answer until We may see
the foregoing suggestions disposed
of.
We neither charge, nor do we
believe. that Judge Parkinson is a
party TO, or even cognlsant of any
move to use his popularity to secure
delegates for Mr.. Stone. We only
know that such a suspicion has got
abroad-caused in part, if not wholly,
by the singular conduct of the Bates
County Democrat, that processes to
champion Judge T., and the way
matters stand, it is doing the Judge a
no small amount of harm.
! We make no prctense of Disgusting
the fact that we have no private
grievance against Mr.. Stone We
have never asked favor of him, and
have no resentnents. He has always
treated us personally, as gentleman
should.
Yet we are emphatically opposed d
to his second endorsement for con-
gress--
On strictly public grounds.
We are an antl-monopollst-up one
side and down the other,
Without drawback, or mental res
ervation.
We would not dare support an,
man for a political office who dare
to take the side Of monopollsts agains
the people.
We have pretty good evidence tha
MIR. Stone takes the side of the mo
nopolists.
One IS, when he antaeonized DR.
Churchill, who makes no pretentlon
to being a stump orator, and yet tn
DR.. took up the rights of the people
against the monopolists. and bea
Mr.. Stone, largely, in his own count
Stone having the local press t
aid HIM.
The postmaster question IN th
, town turned wholly on the poir
whether the monopolists should dit
tate the federal appointment.
Mr.. Stone decided with the me
nopolists.
Not only this, but Mr.. Stor
became the willing aider of a schen
= which deceived many anti-monopo
lists into aiding the scheme
And it would take six yoke of oxe
= to pull them to the polls to vote +,
Mr.. Stone.
Hence, we believe MIR. Stone wi
. be defeated.
In the name of God, the dem era,
and the people, we trust he will ha,
' no chance to run and be defeated.
If we cannot get Morgan, give
= Parkinson or CAN'T, or some 9th
5 man true to popular interests.

we are mistaken, an d under false

AS now is the opportune time, with
least damage to the cause OF
hocracy, we will specify same OF
causes that lead us to believe that
k,srs. Stone and Wade are playing
parts of Jonathan and David:
Isl. MIR. Wade holds the post
&c by favor OF Mr.. Stone, and
covered that gentleman with
ssntainous tulsome praise, as a
tsman of transcendant ability,
hout specifying thing done to
Et the encomlums. 1t IS not very
kgular that Mr.. Wade should con
kr Mr.. Stone in the light of
betactor, in rescuing him from an
kmonious and unpleasant contest,
had he openly espoused the cause
Ibis benetactor, without disguise,
he is no democrat who would have
kn surprised-however much they
lght have deplored an act that
kld only be defined as an aid to
buopoly by the friction OF federal
homage. All this could have been
kne, after the manner of human
tmre--but what do we see! Mr..
IS ostensibly dropped, and one
' half so highly extoled, ostensibly
ken up, on an ostensible plea OF
bal pride-and yet, while Judge
brkinson's bust is exhibited as q
kurehead on the PROV, the larboard
starboard gangwaYs are testoon'
with editorials which seem to say

kurhead; we've better one back

THE democratic press have no
tsumed to dictate whom our CO
lmporary should, or should no
|pport-but they have insisted tha
contemporary advocacy OF two
% have but the one effect to deceiv'
Pmebody, and deception eyer lead
schism and factional dlstrust.
I'D. Another thing. That al
hough Mr.. Stone knows the osten
fble position of the Democrat is to

disturb HIM in the least, and S
as the public can see, he is salts

TWO LINING HERMlrs.
Last November two men took

Last November two men took a lease of a mine belonging to c. w. Sickler, located on the west side of Little Cottonwood canyon, on Bald mountain, near Alta They took mp good supply of provisions and went to work with the intention of staying in that elevated place till spring. A few days ago some cit izens of Alta missed a familiar tree which stood near the mouth of the mine tunnel, and beside the cabin, and supposing the tree, cabin and men had been swept away by a slide, organized a party and went up to prospect for thom. The trip was a difficult one, requiring most of the day, and when within 15O fset of the cabin their progress was stopped by an immense barrier of spow which they could not pass. They saw smoke coming out far above them, and calling to the men were able to converse with them. They could not come to greet their visitors because they dare not trust themselves upon the snow bank hanging on to the side Of the mountain, and which was ready to rush to the bottom of the canyon thousands of feet below. They said they were well, had plenty of grub and fuel, lots of ore and did not intend to come out till May. This is one phase of silver inning which the world knows nothing of. Two hardy men imprisoned 5000 feet above sea level, delving in mine six long, winter months, with no other companions, no news to read or talk about, virtually out of she world so far as it's doings are concerned, is an experience few men would like to go through. And this, too, within sight of this busy, bustling city.-Salt Lake Tribuna-

Pretsy Women or the ..LooDy..


 There are several new faces among the lobbyists here this ses- sion, writes a Washington cores pondent, among them those of half a dozen pretty women. One came here from the south at the first of the season with a big claim. Sev- eral lawyers had tried their hands at 1t before. but ignominously failed. The widow, however, land ed in Washington and took apart ments at one of the best hotels. Then she began making Congress sional acquaintances. It was not long before the members found that her room was very pleasant place to spend an evening. The lady was clever and brilliant con- versationalist, and she became not ed for her witticisms and bright sayings. After a campaign of three months her claim passed both branches of Congress, and it only requires the Presidents sig- nature to become a law. Another lady has been making a speciality of post-office routes. She has a great deal of influence at the post office department and contractors often and it to their interest to in yoke her aid. Of course in each case where she is successful a good round fee Is exacted. Taken as whole the lobby is having a very prosperous season, and while there may be some indivi lual cases of dlscontent, the majority of the members are in a very happy state of mind.
