A DETECTIVES STORY.

The Moreton Bank was a joint stock
affair in the North, with several
branches. Each branch was under a
separate manager, with high pay, good
social position, and liberty to do very
much as he liked, for the central board
of directors had great confidence in
their men, and everything worked very
smoothly and successfully. All the man
ayers were men who had been from
boys in the banks employ, and were
very well paid, and thought much OF by
the surrounding gentry.
Well, business was slack, and was
sitting in my little office one October
day when my head (and only clerk
showed in a visitor. This was Mr.. Sner-
ris, a solicitor of good standing in the
city, much in favor with commercial
men. l had had two or three things

He was a man Of few words, and

THE BOOMERS ONCE MORE.

The "Oklahoma Boomers" are prepar-
ing for another raid, and propose to start a
party of trespassers numbering 1000
to-day, for the Indian Territory.
They claim to be well armed, and to have
$4,000 in their treasury. Major Sumner
in command Of the United States troops,
appointed to resist the invasion, has given
the Indians notice to pillow deep burrows
five yards wide around their ranges, as he
proposes to burn every blade Of grass in the
Territory except such as the Indians need
for their stock 1t is more than strange
that men will persist in the effort to break
through the solemn pledge the Govern
ment has given to the tribes occupying In
dian Territory lands. Their plea that the
grazing lands should of right be open to
white settlement has nothing of force in
tit is simply a question of good faith.
Some dozen tribes of Indians possess these
lands under the contract of treaty with the
Government. They removed from their
original hunting grounds to these in In
dian Territory under that convention.
They have adhered to their part of the
contract have adopted the arts of civil
cation; have buried forever the tomahawk
and the scalping knife; they have become
agriculturists; have built towns and cities,
established schools erected churches, MAIN
tain republican form of government,
adjudicate their issues before properly
constituted tribunals, and i'll all ways have
proved themselves capable of self-govern-
ment, and fitted for our system of civiliza-
ton. If now the American people permit
their guaranteed rights to be invaded-ne
matter that they embrace vast area of
idle Landslide Government deserves the
scorn and loathing of mankind. These
Boomers" it was hoped, had permanently
subsidized on the death of Payne their chief.
But his spirit or disciples appear to have
infamed them anew, and they have taken
up the march once more for the Territory
in armed resistance against the Govern
ment of the United States. Major Sumner
ought to preach to them unto conversion
from the gospel of powder and lead.

MR.. HEARSTS STATEMENT.

In the name Of common honesty, whom
did Senator Hearst consult regarding his
destructive amendment to the river and
harbor bill? Who of tie friends of the
valley ever told him his pl opposed legisla-
ton would be satisfactory Let us know
who it is that has assumed the high office
of authoritatiyely speaking for the people
of the Sacramento valley regarding river
preservation ? How is it, Mr.. Hearst,
that your colleague takes a precisely OPP
posite view, and is backed by memorials
from all the chief cities and towns, and
from the citizens residing along the de-
generating uavigable streams? How is it,
sir, that five out of six of the representa-
tives from California antagonize your policy
and protest against the action of the SEN
ate? The people. should once more me-
morialize Congress, and that within the
next twenty-four hours and express in
fitting terms their utter reputation of the
statement of Mr.. Senator Hearst.
