Messrs. Editors, that Mrs. M. b,erling

THE GOOD INDIAN rs THE DEAD
INDIAN.

EDITOR Observation-Disclosures
ton from the southwest is to the effect
that Maza Champa has passed over the
range to the happy hunting ground
beyond. He died recently in a Fort
Worth hotel of asphixia, OcCasioned by
blowing out the gas. 1t was my good
fortune to know this worthy Indian.
1 had met him az Schiloco some three
years ago, his mission there being in
the interest OF the education OF the
Indian children of his tribe.
Like Logan of the Mingnes, he was
the friend of the white man, and iii
advocate of peace. A true child OF
nature he was; therefore, he could not
have been other than amiable. And
now il IL sadly said that this besutifn!
spirit has passed beyond the clOud-tOp-
ped hills to its humble heaven. The
hand that hath So deity manipulated
the unerring Winchester hath manipu-
lated Its last mauip. The ebon eye
that erstwhile twinkled at the approach
OF his Tingaliska, she of the lawn like
mien, hath twinkled its last twink.
Ills scalping knife now hangs idly
against the tepee wall; his favorite
bronco has been slaughtered Tor the
traditional journey; his yellow dog
bowls It's mournful dirge, and that
grief stricken relic. clad in the sad
habiliments of woe, sits bv the dying
glare of the p~ineknot weighed down
with a grief as painfully piercing and
dismally dark as car be woven of the
warp and woof of blighted hopes and
buried affections.
Farewell, Maza Champa. Fear not,
noble warrior, for in the sweet by and
by He who judges alike the untutored
child of the forrest and the pale.faced
germ of civilization, will weigh your
grist in the balance OF provOcatio1.
The wrongs of the pilfering agent,
thieving contractor and encroachin2
adventurer will weigh in rebuttal
against one whose greatest error con-
sisted In blowing out the gas. It'd.

THE MEMBERSHIP Of THE LOWER
HOUSE.

The constitution of the state provides
in regard to the number of members OF
the house Of representatives that the
ratio of representation shall be ascer-
tanned at each spporlioning session OF
the general assembly, by dividing the
whole number of inhabitants of the
state, ae ascertained by the last decen-
NAL census of the United States, by the
number OF two hundred. ELch county
having one ratio, or less, shall be
entitled to u representative; each
county having two and a halt times
said ratio shall be entitled to two
representatives; each county having
four times said ratio shall be entitled
to three representatives; each county
having six times said ratio shall be
entitled to four representatives, and so
on above that number, giving N
additional member for every two and II
half additional ratios.
The requirements of the constitution
can easily be applied to the conditions
presented by the new eepsns as they
are sseertsiped. We may Illustrate by
mentioning 9 few counties. II the
population Of the state shall prove TO be
2,700, 600, one ratio will be 1880. Zach
county having this ratio or less will be
entitled to one member of the legisla-
ture. IN order to have two members,
however, 1t Is necessary TO have a pop
ulation of two and T. halt ijmes this
ratio, or 33, 1850, 81 that practically all

Que member Of the general assembly.
St. Louis now has IA members;

Jasper, johnson, Nodaway, Pettis, Vt.

If the population OF st. Louis shall he
what is claimed for It by its additional
count, 400 1000, il will be entitled to Is
representatives, one w0re than it now
has.
Counting the population of Jackson
county at 1856. 600 il will be entitled 10
J members. II is quite likely, though
that st. Louis will only retain its 4
members, and that Jackson county will
gain bnt 2.
Enough Is not now known OF the
population ascertained in the olhe,
counties to make any accurate figures
The chances are that Buchanan county
| will only succeed in holding its three
representatives; no county that now
has two will obtain Gn additional mem
| Der, and some of them will lose one.
The indications are that the size OF
the lower house of the general assem-
bly, will not vary more than two OF
three from its present number.

THE CHRONIC GRUMBLERs.

Political parties, like churches,
societies and other organized bodies, ARE
afflicted with curonic grumblers; men
whom nothing can please, nothing
satisfy. There is always H healthiIi
necessity for just and proper criticism.
The honest "Eicker" at tunes is the
best friend OF HE party in pointing out
improper action, and in demanding
that real wrongs shall be righted. lie
IL not the man of whom we speak Such
u man, while at times he will make
vigorous protests, will, HI a rule, be
found battling for his party, landinS
its principles and defending its leaders.
But the srumbler never does these
things. He is n pessimist by nature
and u growler by the yard. Suspicious
and cynical, generally supremacy
selfish, he always suspects others OF
| ulterior and sinister motives, and gives
credit to no man tor noble aspirations
or patriotic purposes.
Once in a while this kind of a cat
gets hold of a newspaper in which event
his usual oflensiyencss becomes only
the more conspicuous. Hosting the
| democratic ticket in one corner of his
paper, his grumbling and complaints,
often founded in ignorance and narrow
prejudice, will do more harm to his
party than direct and open hostility.
He would do less injury by taking
down the ticket and going bodily into
the camp OF the enemy. This is a
country OF free press and free speech,
and the right of criticism OF public
men and measures cannot safely be
abridged, but there should be a very
full understanding that the chronic
grumbler, like a smoky chimney and u
scolding vile, is q common nuisance.
Whether actuated by pure cussedness
or malace, by disappointed ambition,6y
q spirit of demagogism such as is
the legislator who always votes no, the
chronic grumbler should be given to
understand that the world do move,
that the entire creation cannot very
well be measured in his peck measure,
and that If he wants to growl he should
first take at least a moment or two to
investigate before he condemns action
which may have taken much labor and
considerable vi which he knows moth
ing.
Democracy in this state has had some
of these hypocritical gentlemen in the
past. } ust now it has little use for them.
With an enemy before it as unscrupu-
lous as Satan, ever alert and active,
ready to mortgage the life and soul OF
the mass of the people TO Wall street
and the manufacturing oligarchy, pre-
pairing to steal the liberties of the
people by federal party control of the
congress elections, personal feelings
aud ambitions, petty differences as to
management and men, should be put
aside for the general veal. Power,
wealth, unlawful ambition, are seeking
to set themselves sstride OF the Decks
of the people. The only earthly deliv-
erance from them is through the dem
ocratic party. To secure it united
action is demanded, and in order TO
obtain it the grumblers and the growl-
ers should be relegsted to the rear, TO
march with the suttlers and camp
followers. They have no place among
the leaders of 80 glorious a cause.
