RECENT oUTRAGES.

Mr. Chandler then took up again the ques-
ton of the Louisiana election, reading many
statements as to the intimidation of Republic
can voters, and cited from the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, whose Washington CORE
spondent had spoken of his intending to
bring ont in his special fthe old bones and
rotten and time-worn stories of southern out
RACES" A full descriptive account of the re-
cent killing of ten negroes in front of Iberia
parish was read to the senator by Mr.. Frye.
Commenting upon it Mr.. Chandler said: sold
bones rotten and time-worn stories" The
quivering flesh and blood of these negroes
was to be found in the streets of Freetown
last Thursday. This murder OF negroes was
as atrocious almost as any that can
be found in the annals OF this bloody
business of keeping the South solidly
Democratic. It was as atrocious
as the murder of eight negroes in Spanish
Camp. Texas, the facts in regard to which
will be. hope presented to the Senate q
bloody butchery, the shooting down of eight
negroes in q cabin in which they had taken
refuge. These negroes, at Freetown, La,
were peaceful, they were doing nothing. But
they were to be subjected to the processes of
regulators" who are engaged in the bust
ness of whipping negroes in Iberia parish IN
order that they should be in such state of
intimidation that they will not attempt next
November to vote against Grover Cleveland.
It is perpetual political movement carried
on in the STATES of Louisiana and Mississippi,
for the purpose of keeping those States solid
" Democratic and of violating and annihilat-
ing the fifteenth amendment.
Without concluding his speech, Mr..
Chandler yield to the floor, and the Senate
at 5:15 p. m. adjourned

English Comment ON she treaty.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-The Pail Mall Gazette,
referring to the rejection of the fisheries
treaty by the United States Senate, says it is
thankful that the Chamberlain mission had
not made the difficulty more serious than 1t
was before. Senator Morgan's speech it says
was buncombe. The rejeotion of the treaty
simply relegates the whole question to an
amicable settlement after the presidential
election. The paper further says: ''Neither
Americans nor Englishmen are 1unatics and
the world will not be plunged into bath Of
blood because opinions differ over q kettle of
fish, The matter win be again negotiated
after the election and in the meantime we can
cultivate India rubber-like forbearance and

Where New York Is shrewd.

Where then is New York's future gen.
Grafton to come fromH
Surely not from the slums2 No, the
case is not quite that bad. l sometimes
think that New York considers life in the
metropolis as a perfected sort of existence,
and that the rest of this country is q
nursery in which men and women are
prepared for graduation to the higher
sphere of Manhattan island. This might
explain the treatment given New York
children. For instance, Daniel Dough-
erty was just as eloquent in Philadelphia
as he was in New York.
But he comes to New York and the ink
upon his papers of adoption is not yet dry
when he is introduced to the national as
semblage of his party as a son of the empire
state, and as such is IGNORED beyond any
man in the delegation of which he is a
member. So with Ingersoll and the pic
turesque Ochiltree. They are now New
Workers.. 1t is the same way in all walks
of life. Look in the art of journalism.
Pulitzer, Cockerill, John Russell Young,
Dana, Reid, Jones and all the men famous
in metropolitan n~ewspaperdom are do
nestle ~elnigrants. Joe Howard is the only
prominent New York newspaper writer
who is to the manner born and he comes
from Brooklyn across the river. New
York takes the children of other localities
to her bosom and makes them her own
and shines in the luster of their acts.
And that is where New York is smart.

THE Sun should stoop to no misrepre-
sensations of Mr.. Organs land matters.
The loose and verbose article which it
printed yesterday can not possibly do any
good and may do harm. The so-called
Organ ditch, which taps Crow creek, is
owned by five individuals, of whom Mr..
Organ is one. We have the authority of
Mayor Riner himself for the statement
that there has never been any conflict or
misunderstanding between the city author
tiles and the ditch company on the subject
of the waiter supply. The Sun closes
its very flippant article with these words:
1--WE happen to know of an ex-soldier
who fought valiantly for his coun-
try, and by virtue of his services
was granted the privilege accorded
to its defenders. of making proof upon a
homestead within a period of six months.
He now reaches that land by going through
the wire fence of Perry Organ, the friend
of the settler
The gallant soldier referred TO is N. j.
O'Brien. Last night he publicly asserted
that his land was not enclosed by Mr..
Organs wire fence and consequently he
was no put to the inconvenience of going
through any kind of fence that he himself
did not own.

circumstances of the case which no intel
llgent taxpayer, whether he resides IN the
city or the country, should overlook.
Judge Bergman has now handled the
county cash and the school funds for eight
years and the city cash for fourteen years.
He has made as much out of all as one
single healthy individual could reasona-
bly, hope to do. He is not particularly
interested in keeping down Laramie
county taxation, for nearly all his possess
ions are in Crook county. The only ref
erenee TO Judge Bergman in the Laramie
county assessment roll for 1888 is this:
Bergman, Isaac, lots 5 and 6, block 32l,
So, 500; one horse, value $50" To him,
as our correspondents clearly state, and to
him individually, is very largely due the
burthensome taxation of this and several
previous years.
There is no subject which appeals more
closlcy to the people than this very subject
of taxation. The duller the times the
heavier does taxation press. 1t bears
hard on the ricn man, but by some singu-
lar fatality 1t bears proportioDately harder
on the poor. 1t is a subject which de-
mands and should receive radical legisla-
tive action. The Democratic party has
taken a step in the right direction by put
ting up three large property owners, who
have the confidence of the people of this
county, for the office of county commits
sioners. But more is needed. We sadly
need publication from the contamination
of the courthouse ring. The leeches who
have for years fed upon the very vitals of
the people must be relegated into retire
ment; the system of exorbitant fees and
commissions must be abolished, and we
believe it no more than right that the
people should have pledges to that effect
from the legislative candidates.

Tho Mines of NIexieo.

The mining country of the future is
Old Mexico. Not because of the richness
of the ores there, but because of the
c~heapness of taking it out. An So ore
can be handled in that country as profit
ably as a $50 ore in this country. The
Mexicans are the most expert miners in
the world, and they live cheap and work
for co~rrespondingly low wages. I have
little confidence in the old mining proper
ties of hat country because the Mexicans
know how to mine. There was an effort
made a few months ago to spread the i'm.
preston that there were numerous very
rich old mines in Mexico that were aban-
doned decades ago. There are a few in
stances where a mine was abandoned in
that country because the water came
into 1t too fast for the bucket brigade of
those times, but such cases are rare. The
great majority of the abandoned mines
were worked out before they were aban-
doned. But there is an immense amount
of low grade ore in Mexico that has not
been touched, and q great deal of it can
be worked profitably which in this coun-
try could not be taken out at all There is
enough of 1t, at least, to supply the
world with metal for a few years, and
most Of the worlds supply will come
from there.-A- w. Clifford in Globe-Dem-
ocrat.

To Become a Good Shot.

To become q skillful marksman, of
course q long and thorough practice is in
~dispensable. TIL eve must be well
trained, the neryrs must be steady and
the gun must be quickly and skilifully
handled There are many persons who
are "born marksmen." They have a
natural adaptability to become a good
shot" but still a long and persistent
practice is required, even with natural
qualifications. AS to shooting tourna-
ments, where live birds and clay pigeons
are used, they afford a comparatively fair
test of the skill and ability of a marks
man. But the severe test, that brings
into play all the faculties of a marksman,
is in hunting wild game in the wood or
field In the sportsman's shoot the clay
pigeons and live birds are always thrown
from the trap in shooting distance, and
the marksman, knowing this fact, has
only to "take sight" and then fire.
But it is altogether a different thing
when hunting wild game in the field.
For example, take the wild duck, which
is undoubtedly the most deceptive game
to kill. The duck will be floating on the
water, or say, will fly into the air, and
the huntsman is oftentimes deceived by
the appearance of it's size, and will shoot
when it is entirely out of shooting range.
The duel appears to be nearer than it
really is. Thus 1t is that hunting the
wild game is a better test of a marksman
than In shooting the city birds in a shoot
ing match. The huntsman after the wild
game must exercise his judgment as to
the distance of the bird and the rapidity
of its flight, and the most opportune time
to shoot. T~hirty-fve yards is the aver
age shooting range of q wild duck, but
an experienced hunter will shoot when
the game is sixty yards away-"C. w.
s." in Globe Democrat.

In ITS efforts to explain why it objects
so strenuously to the present high taxa
ton and yet advocates statehood which
will elevate even the present altitudlnous
figures, the Sun has a task on its hands
which scars beyond the intellectual grasp
of the mathematical editor of the Eddy
street organ. 1t has now hedged so far
as to say that it is not bowling for imme
date statehood but for ultimate state
hood. We are pleased to see these re-
turning CLEANS of reason. The time
when any one individual, though that in
dividual be Judge Carey, could plunge
this territory into deeper debt to crafty
a personal ambition is past and never will
return again. Statehood is a lovely
thing, but the taxes must not be in.

The Republican organ INDUCED yester-
day in another of its spiteful little filings
at Surveyor General Thompson. The
principal cause of its bllliousness seems
to be that Gen. Thompson once lived in
Kentucky. If the editor OF the Sun
possessed a 1.-THE of Thompson's manly
qualities or a modest modicum of his
intellectual accomplishments, his claims
to the respect and admiration of this
community would rest on a much more
substantial foundation than they do.
