The papers contain numerous ad.
vertisements offering to let wlndow ws

are generally about $25, but as much
as 500 has been obtained for the
use of a room especially eligible for

A party of drunmers resting over
New Years were seated in the corri,
dor of leading hotel one morning,
discussing the characteristics of the
different towns they visited. Said
one; "The meanest town in the west
is in northern Kansas. When was
there last month the dead body of
an unknown man was found in the
street. In his pockets were found
800 and a revolver. Instead of
taking the money and giving him a
decent burial they arraigned him ua-
der the name of Richard Roe, fined
him 800 for carrying concealed
weapons, and buried him in the pot

And Are stt11 At It.

Last Friday morning at 10 o'clock
the salt borers struck strata of pure
rock salt at depth of us feet, and
since that time have been boring in
salt. This "wednesday evening
they have reached depth of 96o
feet and are still in salt. An anal
ysis of the article found shows 1t to
be small fraction of one per cent.
less than pure,
The discovery of this remarkable
deposit of salt. absolutely free from
all extraneous substances, will work
an era in the advancement of the
city to material prosperity. 1t will
attract the attention of capitalists
from all parts of the country to this
city, and will result in an influx of
foreign capital to develop the discov-
cry. In many ways. this find will
prove to be of great value to the city
and surrounding country. 1t is con.
tidently expected that within sixty
days Pratt will be- one of the salt

There ia a bill bofore Congress to
double the salaries of judges of the
Supreme Court. We are told that
the salaries paid to these gentlemen
are sufficien, for men of their talents
and learning. Its fact that simi-
lar statements are periodically made
in favor of those officers who receive
the highest salaries. Now ours is a
government If the people. The sal
aries paid to our officers are estimat-
ed on the basis of the average earn
ings of the class of men appointed
to fill the offices. Men of rare gifts
and abilities can usually make more
in private than IN public life, There
is no doubt that the fees charged by
such lawyers as Evarts, Butler and a
few others exceed the salary of the
Attorney General of the United
States. But it is still true that the
salary which that officer receives is
larger than the average income of
lawers of equal ability. The same
statement NAV be made in regard to
the salaries paid in every department
of the sarvice of the government If
every judge on the Supreme bench
should resign tomorrow, the vacant
places could be filed within the
month by men of equal learning. ex-
perience and ability. The innumer-
able applications for the offices in
the gift of the state and the nation
prove clearly that the salaries paid
are larger than the sums which the
men who aspire to fill the offices
tr, ,aruinr IN their ordinary pur.
suits, When men can no longer be
found competent to fill and willing
TO accept the offices with the present
salaries. it will be time enough tc
ask for an increase. Let some regard

salaries MS well as to the men to whom
the salaries are paid,-Lebanon ILL.,

TOO Much Izorses stea,.ne.

1t is about time stop was put to
the horse stealing industry in eastern
Colorado. The farmers should or
ganize and the first thief caught
stealing horse should be strung up
to the nearest telegraph pole. We
do not believe in lynch law under or,
dinary circumstances, but something
snouid be done to put stop to this
business. The farmers have no
money to pay out hunting after
horse thieves, nor do the counties
have money to spend paying sheriff
and court fees in their apprehension
and conviction. If the farmers in
every precinct in the county would
organize and give this GLASS to under
stand that they mean business these
gangs could soon be broken up

: There remains no doubt that in the
next Congress the Republicans will
have a working majority in both
houses. The clerk OF the present
House of Representatives figures it
out in this way. The admission of
the new states would give them a
majority, even if without the new
votes they would be placed in the
minority. 1t is possible, but not
probably, that Montana will elect a
democrat. Washington and North
Dakota will each elect one republi-
can and South Dakota two.-Denver

1t is understood that Ex-senator
Chilcott stands good show of being
commissioner of the general land Of
fee under President Harrison. We
hope he will secure the position. We
were much disappointed that Mr..
Chilcott did not make the fight for
the senatorship in the recent contest.
In common with the republicans in
southern and south western Colorado
we wanted to see reprentative man
OF this section in the senate. 1t was
apparent early in the campaign that
Senator Bowen ceuld not be elected
it looked as if Mr.. Chilcott might be,
and vet We suppose it was not in the
cards, and hence his making the best
terms possible for himself, in the

She waited, and then said she: "Perhaps He sends us some tokens that we do not look to see" When she was gone sat down and cried, with my head on the old red shawl, l almost thought there wasn't God to plan for this world at all But after I'd cried my tears away, thought of what Milly had said l thought Of it all the afternoon, and when had gone to bed. In the morning I went to the door, and there was my cactus at last in bloom; A great red, glorious blossom that had burst 'twixt the light and gloom. And when 1 looked deep into its heart, felt q kind of an awe; The sheaf of stamensi that perfect cupl but that wasn't all l saw. gazed at the gnarly. prickly plant, so bare and crooked and dry, With that blossom just like a rosy star dropped out Of the morning sky, Then sank to my knees beside the door, and there on the cold, wet sod, knew there was One who cared for me, and He was the loving God. For oh! if He has the power to make such a flower by love divine, Perhaps He will bring pure white soul from such poor life as m ne; IL is dry, and twisted, and dreary, filed up with my household dust; But ahl have seen His token, and I know l can wait and trust.

Ripe Fruit as a Medicine.

Fresh, ripe, perfect, raw fruit is safe and hcaIthful at all seasons of the year, and amid the rayages of disease, whether epidemic endemic or sporad- ie, general, special or local. Under proper restrictions as to quantity. such fruits us named will cnre diar- rhca. aid in removing eolie cold, fever or any other disease whose treat ment requires the bowels to be kept freely open; for this effect fresh ripe fruit Is acknowledged to have the re- quisite properties; but to be used ad- vantaGe0usiy in health and disease, the following rules are imperative: Fruit should be eaten ripe, raw. fresh and perfect. Ii should be eaten in moder- ation It should be eaten no later than four o'clock in the afternoon. To have its full beneficial effect. nothing else should be eaten at the time the fruit is taken. It is to the neglect of these observances that erroneous inn pressions prevail in many families, and to an extent, too, in some instances, that the most luscious peach or apple, or bunch of grapes is regarded as that much embodied cholera and death.- Journal of Health.
