FREE TRADE is the principal plank
in the Blaine platform.

THE Sun of yesterday republishes a
Washington telegram which originally
appeared in the Denver Republican. 1t
is very misleading. particularly in the
following paragraph:
I'm May. 1887, a colored troop belong
ing to the United States cavalry, was or
dered to Wyoming to tear down the fences
erected on the public lands. In due
course they struck the fence belonging to
Morton L. Post. Did they tear it down?
Not much. They cautiously followed its
course for nineteen and a half miles and
then camped for two months in sight of
the fence, which e~ncloses ll2,0 900 acres of
public land.
Everybody knows that the troops were
under orders not to tear down any fences
within railroad limits, as a serious and
unsettled legal question was involved.
The inhibition did not alone apply to the
Post ranch but to every other ranch stu
ated under like circumstances, whether
owned by a Democrat OF Republican.
Until the Sun article appeared it was be-
heved that every person of legal age in
the territory knew this.

THE Laramie Times speaks in this
pleasant manner of the coming fair:
The territorial fair to be held at Chey-
enne beginning Sept. 25 will present a
practical advertisement of the territory's
capabilities. Every citizen who has the
welfare of Wyoming at heart should be
interested in that fair. 1t should be
talked about and written about continually.
1t should be made the best exhibit ever
seer in the territory. Every man and
woman in Wyoming should have pride in
it. Wyoming is advancing to the dignity
of a state in population and but
the people do not fealize it."

The negrars of Russia.

An illustration of the results of indis-
criminate charity is furnished by facts
reported from Russia. 1t seems that
whole villages have resolved themselves
into orders of mendicants. They stay at
home until they have reaped their har-
vests, and then all start out on a begging
tour. They are divided systematically
into guides of ten to twenty persons each.
These scatter here and there, begging
through the towns, and gather" at stated
intervals to divide their gains and con-
suit further operations. The women take
along their children to excite pity, and
the old draw attention to their decrepti-
tude. The cash returns are said to be ex-
ceedingly large, and from the bread
gathered they not only feed themselves,
but fatten their horses. In this manner
several months of each year are spent.
The moral results of this sort of life are,
of course, lamentable. Every trace of
self respect goes, and a degeneracy of
sentiment is created that obliterates char
acter, ambition and honor. This is true
Of all mendicancy, under all circum-
stances. Democrat.

How Warrington Keeps Cool.

Domestic life has been adapted to hot
weather here as nowhere else. In the first
place every thrifty housewife begins in
May to prepare for hot weather. The
carpets are all taken up and packed away
from the moths, cool straw mattings are
placed on the floors, or more frequently
the floors are neatly stained and left bare,
the portieres are slowed on the closet
shelf and inviting linen covers put on all
the upholstered furniture. The whole
winter aspect of the house disappears,
more air is admitted through the curtain
less windows, awnings are put over sunny
doorways and in the larger dooryards
rustic seats are placed In the shadows of
o~verhanging vines and shrubbery. A sup
ply of low seated, wickerwork chairs,
with bow of bright colored ribbon effec-
lively tied to their backs, are brought out
on front stoops at nightfall and strips OF
carpet are spread from the top step to the
sidewalk. 1t is here the family gathers
Gs soon as the sun goes down, and Late
into the night, until the almost unfailing
southern breeze springs up, nearly all
Washington may be found on the door.

C0LoRAD0S 0PPORTUNITY

The Chicago Times is apparently not
inclined to view Colorado's deepwater
scheme with unrestrained enthusiasm.
In touching upon the modesty which usu-
ally cbaracterizes the demands of the pub
lie of Denver and Colorado it INDUCES in
some pleasant raillery.
1T may be that some person may sug-
gest a much easier and cheaper way OF
obtaining the advantages desired by the
people of the centennial state" the
Times says: "He may recommend NOV
ing the entire state to some place in the
Atlantic ocean, where it would be certain
to have a favorable climate, sufficient
rain, and excellent shipping facilities.
Someone else might advocate the erection
of a chain Of cloud-capped, w-covered,
densely wooded mountains on the humid
redth meridian OF longitude, the effects of
which would be to intercept and condense
the clouds that move east from the Pacific
ocean and cause sufficient rain to
water the entire territory en-
braced in the Great American Desert. ,
He might be able to show that the rains
thus produced would result in forming a
river as large and as valuable for naviga-
ton as the Mississippi or st. Lawrence.
This would enable the people of Colorado
to send the products of their irrigated
plains to the Gulf of Mexico by boats at
small expense. Letting the world of sci
ence and invention know what is wanted
is the first bold step toward obtaining it.
This the people of Colorado have done.
With lands irrigated and harbors built at
the expense of the national government
and the unrestricted coinage of silver the
state is bound to prosper"

BELvA LOCKWOOD spoke to a ire
mendous audience o grangers at Williams
Grove, Pa, afew days ago. Her address,
which was spirited and well received,
closed as follows: What we do want"
said Mrs. Lockwood in conclusion, lis a
tariff as moderate as the absolute %necessi-
ties of the government demand, for this
question, Notwithstanding that it was APP
parently the pivotal hinge upon which the
last election turned, is really a sectional
and not a national one. Our people
should come together as you have-not at
the beck of any political party or machine;
not for the purpose of booming, extolling
or thrusting to the front any political as
pirant, but for the purpose OF a calm inter
change of views as to what the needs of
the country really are, the practical
methods Of arriving at them; after each
citizen-each rational intelligence-has
had the opportunity to express his or her
opinion, and then, as one of the founda-
ton stones upon which republics are
based, accept the rule of the popular ma
iority."

THE Indianapolis Sentinel of a few
days since published interviews with
prominent people from every congress
sional district in Indiana. From these
talks it appears hat the Democrats not
only expect to carry the state, but to do
so by increased maiorities. 1t is expected
that there will be a hand-to-hand en-
counter between the two great parties,
but the energetic manner in which the
state Democratic committee has set its
machine in motion augurs a deep-seated
determination to secure a sweeping VIC

CHARLOTTE, n. c., October 9.-News
OF a very brutal murder comes from
Alexander county. where two brothers,
Arthur and CASTOR Barnes, killed a man
named !. W. Robinett. The facts as
gathered by your correspondent are
these The three men were riding along
the road in a wagon when Arthur Barnes
became involved in a quarrel with Robi-
nett. This resulted in fight, which
took place in the wagon. RObinett,
being a good fighter. downed Barnes at
single blow, and was pelting him
severely when Castor seized a club in
the wagon and knocked Robinett
senseless with it. This blow alone would
have killed Robinett, but the two men
Jrow from their pockets knives, With
which they made many gashes in his
breast, stafbing his heart and producing
instant death. The two Barneses threw
the dead body from the wagon and drove
a short distance, when they jumped to
the ground and ran for the woods. The
body was found shortly afterwards, but
the Barneses are yet at large. These
men ere all Young, and Robinett was
quite popular in the neighborhood. His
elayers are said to be very desperate
characters. They are wanted for other
offences.
Charlotte is greatly troubled with bur
glars. There seems 10 be an organized
gang, who make it their business to
piunder residences nightly, and strange
to say, there are no clues

Acceptance OF Bonds.

WASHINGTON, October 9.--The Trea-
surv to-day accepted the tenders Of
bonds aggregating S7,174,30O at l0Sl
Tor As ANA l23 for As Other tenders
were made, but all above those figures
were rejected.
The amount taken to-day is the largest
purchased in one day since the issue Of
the circular of April l7th last, calling
for proposals for the sale of bonds to the
Government. There was no increase In
the price paid to-day over that paid yes
terdav, so the principal significance of
the transaction seems to be that many
holders OF bonds are willing to sell them
al the present rates rather than wait for
a raise 1t is estimated at the Treasury
TINT the heavy disbursements made
during the past few days have further
reduced the Treasury surplus to about

10 believe that If the Senate finds itself
