immigration VS.. Politics.

Oeheral FRANK Morey, who ia
nothing if not an agitator, attempted
to throw discord into the Immigra-
ton Convention in this city by bring
ing in politics and discussing the late
election. It had been limited, some
days ago, that this would be done,
but as the convention was nonpol.
tical, as it had decided not to allow
the Introduction of politics, it was
not seen how it could be done.
Nothing, however, can deter General
Morey, who dashed from immigra-
tion into politics and sought to give
q history of the late campaign in
Madison parish.
The convention expressed its dis
appreciation of his action very
strongly, and if General Morey re-
ally desired to get his views on the
question OF how Northerners or
Republicans are received in Louis
lana, he got them from the unani-
nous declaration of his brother
members that politics made no diff
ference whatever in the standing Of
an immigrant into Louisiana, the
people never stopping to inquire into
new settlers politics, but welcom-
ing him, whatever his views might
be. 1t had not been deemed neces-
sary for the convention to say any
thing on this subject, but General
Morey provoked an expression Of
which was. as VIC said, unanimously
to the effect that the men of the
West are welcomed here e-Republi-
cans as we'll as Democrats-and en-
joy the same political rights, fran
chises and privileges they enjoy
anywhere in the country. On this
proposition General Morey vas the
only negative.
General Morey is, as we have al
ready said. an agitator and 6rebrand,
and has always been an active poll
tician, nearly always in Office and
certainly always a candidate. Within
the ranks of bis own party, he has
been a disorganizer and agitator,
and few men have led more bolts,
been in more political conspiracies
and revolutions than he. In the old
Republican days he nearly always
had trouble in the Republican party
in his district, and had frightful
stories to tell of the outrages CON-
mitted by the Republicans of the
opposition faction. We know of no
Republican save Kellogg and War
moth, Of greater activity, who kept
things more in a constant stir and
turmoil, or who was more successful
in breaking up Republican conven-
ton when he wanted to do so than
the gentleman from Madison. Gen.
Morey is somewhat out Of practice,
but he tried to play this old game
yesterday.
Although the convention had wise
ly decided that it met to discuss
immigration, climate, soil, etc., and
not politics, it Is probable that had
any other delegate than General
Morey started this discussion, it
would have listened patiently, but
no one else was of that way of
thinking; and the convention pro-
perly concluded that if General
Morcy wanted to serve the RepubIi-
can cause, he ought to do it On the
stump in Indiana, not in an industrial
convention, who refused to receive
his inappropriate remarks.-Times'
Democrat.

els the marriage system failure?" is the SUBJ
ect of recent discussions going the rounds of the
press. This is busy world and people must keep
their energies, whether mental or physical, en-
ployed in some direction or another.
The "Lme Kiln Club" met once and discussed
the momentous question "Do CLANS perspire?'
Debating societies must have an incentive and
writer's must have subjects.
''Is the marriage system a failure?" is strange
topic in country full of happy homes and glow
ing firesides. But some eyes look for beauty and
some look for bemsh
The ideas invested under this head are all just,
and the marriage system is proven by course Of
reasoning to be all right-not failure; but the
subject of the ideas is very negatively expressed
and would better read els the divorce system a
SUGGEST
One of the old philosophers whose disagreeable
utterances are jotted down as the profoundest of
all truths, said "Marry or not, as you like, you'll
repent it which ever you do" ,.
This, of course is an insinuation against the
fckeness of human nature and not against matr-
mony The unfortunately married will ever con-
tinue to gaze at life from their peculiar standpoint;
there will ever be Mr.. and Mrs. Lammles in the
world to give false impressions regarding matri-
monia felicity, and croakers to lament its be-
ing such lottery. Ask the man who groans about
the failure of the marriage system if he has aught
of censure to cast against the home of his youth
and the freside around which family of little
children gathered, so many years ago it is now
well nigh dream?
When men, as q rule, are more unsefsl and
women have more self-respect, the marriage state
will be as perfect as God meant it to be. Do you
know where the remedy lies? 1t rests with the
mothers. More capable mothers means nobler
sons and daughters. Some of the husbands and
wives of today, who are unhappy, might find a
remedy for their unhappiness by referring to facts
hundred or more years in the past.

turtles have passed away since this contract for
oaks and vines was let, and the vines are with us,
just as tender, as richly, darkly, gorgeously green
and clingng as those which adorned the gardens
of Eden. Oaks there are, too, but not plenty.
Truly the contract for oaks has not been filled In
all good faith, and the world has had put upon it
many unworthy substitutes, dogwoods, pitch-pine,
pin-oaks, and even the worthless pickey cypress
stump, have all been offered in turn and still there
were many vines left alone to creep low upon the
face of the earth in soltasy discomfort and desola

pretty vines are gradually gaining strength and
learning self-reance, and ere long they will lift

DENVER, Nov. l.-Dave Terrell well
known sporting man, filed an application in
the local land Office September 25, 1885, ask
ing permission to make homestead entry
for the land upon which Greeley, town Of
about seven THOUSAND five hundred popula-
ton, now stands. The local land office re-
fused the entry, alleging that the tract
asked for belonged to the Greeley Town com
pany. Terrell appealed from the decision of
the local land Office. At the time he asked
to homestead the Greeley tract he also made
application for a timber culture claim on
Land which is situated near Greeley.
Terrell has received word through the land
office here that the timber claim had been
allowed by the secretary of the interior, and
that his homestead claim would also in all
probability be granted The property in
question includes that portion of Greeley
upon which the most valuable buildings in
town are situated. The timber tract is
included in that section of land owned by
the Union Pacific Railway company. The
action of the secretary of the interior has
caused the greatest CONSERVATION in Denver
