Claim Fails.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Secretary of
the Interior finds in the case of r. p.
Waterman, of Marion County, Kan, who
claimed $50 for depredations committed
in 1864 by Kiow,. Indians, that he lost prop
erty to that amount, but the claim not be-

law, he can not allow the same.
The amusements of Halloween greatly
vary in different localities and among diff
ferent people. In some sections, parties,
where all the ladies are dressed in calico
or a kindred material, and their male at
PENDANTS are arrayed in vests, coats and
neckties of the same materials, are the
vogue. Frequently the young ladies send
sufficient material like their gowns for the
gentlemen's outfits to the house of the per-
son who gives the party. Then, on an
evening a week previous to said party all
the gentlemen invited meet and select their
materials. This they have made into coats,
vests and neckties without knowing to
whom they are indebted. On Halloween,
as each gent walks into the recep-
tion-room, he selects for his part
ner the young lady wearing the
gown that matches his coat. Thus, ac-
cording to tradition, he learns his fate in
the lottery of matrimony. Another way
is for each lady to make a necktie from the
material like the gown she is to wear. All
these neckties are put in a box in the gen.
tleman's dressing room, and each selects
what, to him, is the prettiest and most
neatly made. He chooses, for his partner,
the young lady with gown to match. The
menu of this feast embraces nuts, apples,
doughnuts and cider, and sometimes a
simple domestic cake. The gentlemen Of
the party should, to carry out the ''idea,"
crack all the nuts and then act as walters,
passing the refreshments to the ladies.
No servants should appear on the scene

emigration of the whites.
The projectors of this new emil
grafton movement are undoubtedly
in earnest in advising the removal
of those whom they regard as per-
secuted people. If their scheme
should prove to be successful and if
they induce large numbers of the
ex.slaves to emigrate, the South
will undoubtedly be injured. That
section Is just entering upon AGAR
eer calling for the employment Of
laborers in varied industries, All
the chances are in favor of the
South Heeding all the laborers now
living within its limits. The ques-
ton Of whether these laborers will
be retained or not rests largely with
the white people of the several
States. No law, no organization,
no system of bulldozing can compel
tie freedmen to remain where they
are not fairly treated. The most
effective way to break down the
new emigration movement is to
give the colored people of the South
practical assurance Of fair treat
ment. They, like other people, are
attached to their homes. The Vir-
ginia Negro Las liking for Virgin

undoubtedly prefer the State OF
their birth to other States, provid-

stripe ring is well known to many
Of our people.
This is a close-corporation ring,
in the sense that what it wants
must prevail, whether the bulk of
the Republicans Of this county are
agreed or not. No public interest
can be subserved by giving such an
outfit any more rope. As far as the
friends Of Trego county are con-
cerned, to understand this ring and
its political methods, is to denounce
them.
S. NJ. Hutzel is the choice of the
Peoples Convention for probate
Judge. He is qualified for the po-
sition. The so-called Republican
convention cast two men adrift at
the end of their first terms. Now,
why not, after DR.. Conger has had

him a lay-off? This question is sub

ings should suggest. Such a speaker
would be, not only an ass, but he
might as well go to Halifax to
gather a crop Of oranges as to that
members county for any party sup
port. In the Legislative session Of
1887, we remember particularly the
case of L. Fl. Leach, representative
from Rocks county. He had de-
feated at the election the straight
Republican candidate. Mr.. Leach,
upon entering the house, took po-
sition as Republican, and he was
treated during the whole session and
in all respects with just the same
consideration as if he had been
elected on the straight Republican
ticket. Captain Justus, of Graham
county, served in the Legislative ses-
sions of 1885 and 1885 as a member
who had been elected on the straight
Republican ticket. In the session
of 1887, he was a member, but at
the election he had defeated the
straight Republican candidate. He
had made his race for the same
reason we are making ours, because
he had been swindled out of the
nomination. Mr.. Justus received
at Topeka all the recognition which
he could have expected to receive
under any other circumstances. Al
though elected over straight Re
publican candidate (so-called, he
acted with the Republicans and was
treated as one Of them.
1t is not necessary to say that,
in the case of our election, we will
naturally and surely support Senator
Plumb for reelection. Our people
know this. Senator Plumb knows
it.
With all due respect for Mr..
Legate as the able man that he is, we
now produce some other conclusions.
These conclusions are respectfully
referred to the Republican state
central committee and all other per-
sons who feel concerned. The Re-
publicans who have determined to
rebuke the little ring in Wa-Kee-
ney that has taken into its hands
the entire Republican machinery of
Trego county desire to support the
national and state Republican tick
cts. It is to be hoped, for the sake
Of those interests, that they will be
permitted to do so without attempts
being made to hammer into them
the notion that such action will
count for naught unless they con-
sent to permitting undue interior
ence in our local politics. The
basic principle Of free government
is that people shall be permitted to
control their local affairs. No
people under the sun know this
better than ours do. Continued in
sistence to the contrary by people
from abroad will simply deepen the
convictions Of our people. That
the repeated rawlings Of the ring
outfit in this county should have
moved the state central committee
to exertions for relief, is not to be
at. Especially is this true
when the angelic appeal which some
Of those ringsters can make is con-
But the state central COM
understanding the ringsters'
appeal to be made in the shadow Of
