THE .noNon- BELONGS.

No greater absurdity can be mag
ined than an attempt to glorify Fred
I. Dubois on account OF the admission
OF Idaho as n State. The Republican
party was founded in opposition TO the
interests Of the great mass Of the poo
pie. Its object has been TO put the
masses Of the people down and rule
them with an influence proceeding
from the few--that few being men OF
wealth. The strife is not at all new
II has existed in all countries since
men emerged from barbarism. Truly |
there is more liberty among barbarious
than in civilized communities where
there are always so many trying TO
keep up style at the expense of the few
and succeed in their efforts by force Of
sophistry and unjust dealing sanctioned
by law. Laws may be unjust. We
all say they must be obeyed. Such is
the truth, but we should nevertheless
oppose laws that are wrong on their
passage but after they are passed work
/ for their repeal.
/ Mr.. Dubois upon Isis second election
/ found himself surrounded by associates
/ who needed, or thought they needed,
larger majority in the Senate TO pro-
tect the monoplies Of the country.
Rotten boroughs were needed to keep
the moneyed interests OF the country
in power as against the people. Du-
bois believing he had a chance for
the Senatorship offered Idaho for sale
To the monopolists OF the country and
they took up the offer offhand without
making much OF an inquiry. Dubois
played M a gambler would play his
cards. II was nothing new for him TO
become a doctor OF chances. How he
is entitled TO credit among those who
prayed for ldaho's admission, is more
than can be readily conceived. A
man in swift rolling stream can
scarcely be applauded for keeping in
the current. To attempt 10 stem i.
would be an utter folly. Is the man
who is caught in burning house or
. falls into stream entitled To any
credit for using efforts to save his lifeg
,, And yet this is the very position in
which the gentleman spoken OF was
, placed. Driven 10y his party 10 sup
I port party measure 10 work for the
admission vi Idaho he did so. This il
the beginning and the end. All the
work did and performed for Idaho was
work for Dubois. The people OF this
city and county know the gentleman
i and know him well. The ides OF DC
tober will give clear appreciation Of
the manner in which his candidacy
for the Senatorship will be regarded
Boise Democrat.
! Correct as to reference to Dubois
He is creature OF fortunate circum
stances, and by aid of brainy friends

newspapers, been made 10 appear al

any other man should and would
have done, Dubois did only his duty
as our representative in Congress and
, deserves no more recognition ut tn,
hands of the people OF Idaho than

positions. Gilmore county will surely

sition to county division, and notwith,

THE STRIP SITUATION.
Those Who Have Come Out Lettering Abou,
Waiting for Another Rush avalry En-
ROuts-Ca tltmen Caucusing.

ARKANSAS CITY, KAN, March 49,
Yesterday good many boomers went
south, but news came this morning from
reliable sources that cavalry were actu-
ally on their way and would surely eject
them. and now they are stopping between
here and the line to wait Developments.
At least two-thirds of those that went In
from this point have come out, but some
still remain. Most of those remaining
are along Black Bear, Chikaskis.
Cbillacco aud other creeks :,
and the Arkansas river and the prairie is
almost deserted. Some say they will
stay until forced out, aud then viii go in
again the first opportunity, but this is
the rough element. The only way an
other invasion can be kept down is for
those who are in there to be forced and
compelled to stay out, for numbers say:
50 We don t wish to disobey the presi-
dents proclamation. still IL others are
allowed TO stay in there we viii return -
Cattlemen are holding secret meetings
here and are discussing the situation aud
planning for the future. They VIII en-
deavor to bring at least a part of their
cattle into Southern Kansas to feed, and
husband what feed and grass they have
left to the best advantage.

A BILL to appropriate 500 200 for a
public building at the towR OF Paris,
this state, has passed the house and is
now before the senate. 1t is respectfully
submitted to Mr.. Abbott that the claim
of Fort Worth for a similar appropria-
ton is well founded and worthy his best
efforts. A town that shows weekly bank
clearances amounting to over 81 200, 900,
has a powerful argument for the grant
ices demanded by business that is repre-
sented SO unerringly.

MORE HOUSES NEEDED.

An honest confession is good for the soul. The
Fort Worth GAZETTE acknowledges that Dallas
ships more freight over the Fort Worth and Rio
Grande railway than does Fort Worth itself. 1t
says the reason for this is the superior enter
prise of Dallas. The country tributary to Fort
Worth has outgrown the city aud
city's capacity and Fort Worth is no
longer market for the country that of
right belongs to it. The GAZETTE makes an
honest and straightforward statement and will
do more good forts town if it succeeds in waking
up the people, than it would by passing the mat
ter in silence and boasting of business that is not
done. 1t is an undeniabie fact that Dallas is far
ahead of Fort Worth both in business and popu-
lation. town is just what its people mako it
and Fort Worth has done well, but not so we'll
as Dallas. While the former was making great
noise the latter was quietly working, and the re-
suit shows that the work was well done. Rock
dale Messenger.
Fort Worth has done much, but this
city has never realized its own possibii-
ties. There are scores of men in Fort
Worth to-day who are amazed at the
growth of the city, who can see nothing
in it to justify such growth, and who
turn pale when real estate tries to reach
its true value despite the lack of effort on
the part of owners to aid 1t.
Fort Worth 3 growth has been marvel
Gus; but what it might have been or what
it would be if its own people could prop
srly appreciate the boundless West no
man can dream.
Fort Worth 3 need is houses in which
merchants can do business. The
city is securing factories, but it
needs to-day dozen more whole
sale mechants more than 1t needs
factories, and the merchants would be
here now if there had been houses for
them. Two gentlemen in the city have
letters from merchants elsewhere asking
for houses. With houses sufficient Fort
Worth would soon have the merchants
necessary to make of this city the mar
ket for all that splendid and rapidly
growing country to the west of it..

FORT WORTH wants the Democratic state con-
vention, and we are decidedly of the opinion
that the convention ought to be held there. Fort
Worth is the biggest city OF its size in any coun-
try, and knows just how to entertain guests in
royal mannr. When other cities practice heec-
ing, our plucky neighnor bubbles over with hos
pitality. Fort Worth and the democratic con-
vention ought to lock arms and embrace this
year by all means.-[ Parker County News.
Fort Worth might secure the conven-
ton if those people who are most inter-
ested would go to work and put up the
money necessary to entertain the conven-
ton. San Antonio has gone to work
theoretically and lntelligently, and if
the Alamo city secures the convention it
Will be due to its organized effort. The
hotels, restaurants, transfer companies,
street railroads and saloons are more in
terested in attracting large crowds to
the city than any other classes OF our
citizens, and should put up the money
and do the work.
Men are tired of travelling over the
state on special committee work at their
own expense to benefit those who are
most directly interested. Certain peo-
pie in Fort Worth have had SO much
done for them in the past that they
have come to expect this service from
others. The time has come for the ben
efciaries to take the lead. Fort Worth 8
chances for the convention depend upon
the work done by its citizens.

NEW YORK KICKS.

On the Ground that It Isn't Patriotic to Use
BedIo''s Island as an Immigrant Landing.
Special to the Gazette.
NFw YORK, March 18.-At to-day's
meeting of the board of alderm en- the
following was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, the Federal aut horities have
announced their intention of taking
Bedloe's island for the purpose of con-
Terting it into a landing place for
European emigrants.
Whereas, Bedloe's island, with the
statute of Liberty EnlighteDing the
World is a striking feature and one call
culated to impress foreigners approach
ing our shores for the first time. and
Whereas, the proposed taking of Bed
loe' IS island for the purpose mentioned
would be q wanton act of vandalism and
in direct defiance OF all patriotic prin-
ciples.
Resolved, that il Is the sense of this
common council that such proposed spo-
liation should be opposed by the people of
this city and state, and the house OF
representatives and United States SEN
ate are respectfully requested TO do all
in their power to prevent such proposed
usurpatlon.
Resolved, that the secretary of this
board send copy of this preamble and
these resolutions to each member of the
house OF representatives and each United
States senator from this state.

FANN1N SHOULD EXHIBIT.

Ladouia News: Shall Fanuin county
be represented at the Texas Spring Pal
ace in May next? This is an important
question to every citizen in the county.
Mr.. James C. Evans of the Bonham
News, who engineered Fannin 8 exhibit
at the Dallas exposition last fall and
made grand success of it, says if the
county will raise $3.50 to pay expenses of
transportation, etc., he will see to it
that the county has creditable exhibit
at the Spring Palace. This is certainly
very liberal tor Mr.. Evans, especially
since he gave his time and about 500
in cash TO give US a good showing
at Dallas. The Fannin Favorite
heads the list with So. The News
will not be behind, "it s not built that
way" so put US down So on that. This
is the way to secure the exhibit; bring
your name and money to this Office, we
will receipt you for it. publish your do
nations in the News, and forward money
to Mr.. Evans of Bonham. The News
will also take charge of any exhibit and
see that it is properly cared for and duly
forwarded. By all means we should
have an exhibit at the Spring Palace, as
it is one of the best opportunities the
county has ever had to advertise her re-
sources. Let Ladouia make O liberal
donation in cash aud material.
