In three or four years. They boast that
there arc people enough now to claim
statehood, but that II will take few years
10 straighten out land claim snarls and
settle affairs generally to proper shape
for state ambition. Tho negro immlgra-
ton to the new territory Is remarkable,
aud most of the colored immigrants are
well-to-do. This movement has been
opposed by Republican papers Of Kansas.
The blacks are also disappointed that
President Harrison did not appoint one of

they had been led to believe that Il. p.

would receive the appointment. Prospects
are said to be strong that Oklahoma will be

very much ashamed of II, for in the midst
ofa fierce inhammatory argument to the
effect that the war IL not over he Is cut
short aud stopped up in the following
abrupt manner: "If we were not right,
then the war for tho Union was the greatest
crime Of all the centuries. If we were not
right, then the soldiers of the republic,
instead of being associated with tho heroes
Of every history and the martyrs of every
religion, should take rank only with the
successful pogllists In a slugging match
for the championship belt of the world. If
there was no moral quality in the contest,
IL the ideas and objects and principles for
whi,h we contended were not right, then
the decalogue should be repealed and the
distinction between truth and falsehood
should be obliterated. II we were not
right, then national morality Is u field for

THE TERROR CONTINUES.
Conductors Still Scared, But Officials Say
There is No Cause for Fear.

The wholesale discharge of conductors on the
Panhandle road has filled tine others on all the
Pennsylvania Company's lines with consterna-
tion. 1t was reported yesterday that five more
heads were to fall on the Fort Wayne and that
four conductors. two passenger brakemen and
a baggagemaster had been released from duty
on the West Penn. visit was made to the
various depots, but the men there refused to
substantiate the report.
At the general offices of the PENNSYLVANIA
Company. yesterday, it was stated: I'VE do
not believe Mr.. Ford ever made the statement
that no conductor should remain on the lines
more than four years. 1t is contrary to the
policy of the Pennsylvania Company to be sus-
picious of their men. 1t observes civil service
reform in the promotion of men for faithful
duties. 1t endeavors TO make the pathway
OF the men pleasant Its policy is con-
servative in any radical move. No general pas
senger agent or any other general officer acting
solely for himself would do anything SO
radical without consulting the other officials
and making full and thorough investigation.
All Mr. Ford's subordinates know him to be
liberal man and a gentleman, both in personal
treatment and his endeavors to give as liberal
compensation as is practicable. He, as well as
the other officers, are glad to see men rise to
the responsible position of conductor, and
would rather retain all the old men than dis
place them with new ones. The conductors
were discharged for sufficient reasons and it
would not be to their interest to have matters
investigated"

Company Formed TO save the Logs From

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.I
PENFIELD. April 9.-When the food oc-
Cured last May which deluged Johnstown and
devastated the valley of the Susquehanna the
boom at Williamsport broke and millions of
dollars worth of logs were allowed to rush
down the stream. 1t was expedient to bring
them back and not let them go to sea. To avoid
loss by either process the Pennsylvania Lum-
Der Company was formed, its object being to
catch the logs and cut them up somewhere
about Underwater. Agents were sent around
among the lumbermen who had sustained
losses and the logs were purchased at the cost
of about S, 100000
Extensive mills were erected at Sparrow
Point, near where the Pennsylvania Steel
Company has located Its works, and the logs
are now being sawed up there. 1t is daring
enterprise, but it is estimated that it vii. net
its projectors several million dollars.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH
UNIoNTowN, April 9.-There is quiet but
determined war waging in the Republican
ranks in this county between the Baily and
Ewing factions of the party The whole
trouble is as to who shall control the delegates
TO the State Convention. The Baily faction
are for Delamater, and the Ewing faction for
Montooth. IF the delegates are instructed
to support Delamater," said Ewing man
to-day. then l will concede the Baily men are
on top in thls county. But you will find that
there is strong tide running in favor of
Montooth. Not that he is better man than
Delamater, but because the Republicans of the
country are becoming dissatisfied with the
manner in which the official patronage has
been distributed"
The Bally men laugh at the idea advanced.
and claim that the delegation will go solid for
Delamater.
