Oklahoma Boomers.

WICHITA, KANSAS, April 14.-A gen.
tleman arriving from Fort Worth says
that the Texas contingent OF the
boomers is massed at Gainesville, and
that the excitement there is as intense
as in Southern Kansas. Thousands,
he says, will leave there the 2lst for
Oklahoma. Among the arrivals yes
terday were two women-Miss Holly
Young OF Quincy and Miss Manitta
Daisy Of Louisville, Ky.--who will take
up claims in Oklahoma. Besides
these there ale party OF young Kan
sas marms in charge Of Miss Bruce,
who were driven out by the soldiers,
and party of eight young ladies from
Purcell that will battle for a quarter
section each.

A Matter of Pride.

The statement that the South is able
and willing to maintain all the ex-
Coniederates who are in need, was not
an idle one Maj. Stewart should take
heed and come home.
Appealing to the pride Of the people
of Georgia, the Atlanta Constitution
has raised in three days more than
Maj. Stewart has collected in three
months. Nearly $4,000 had been re-
ceived last Friday night, and the total
was no~doubt swelled considerably
yesterday. The contributions do not
come from the wealthier class alone,
but thousands OF dollars have been
sent in by clerks and workingmen
generally. Among the contributors
are several poor soldiers who are draw
ing small pensions from the state.
The Constitutions plan is to raise
money enough by private subscription
to build home, and then petition the
state to support it,
The plan may be safely put down as
already accomplished. Its final con-
summation is now only matter OF a
little time.
What Georgia has done every other
Southern state should do.
Why should Tennessee wait fOl
Georgia to complete its work? Or il
it cannot be first, why cannot Tennes
see be second on the list? The
Avalanche will cheeriully lend its sup
port to the movement Who will head
the list with a subscription? Start il
off somebody with round thousand
