A Petrified Horse.

INTERESTING DISCOVERY RECENTLY MADE
IN INDIAN TERRITORY.
A Talefequah Q.T) dispatch to the Phil.
adelphia Times says:
There was recently taken from small
creek near Ssringtown, 1. t., genuine
curiosity in the shape of q petrified horee
which had, beyond doubt, been lying in the
bed of the stream for many years. The
creek. which is known as Mason's ford, has
been dwindliug away for some time, owing
to the failure of the springs by which it is
fed, and is now but shadow rivulet, aud
a number of Indian relics, human bones,
etc, have been taken from its bed.
The horse was nearly covered by depos-
1t OF sand and loose limestone, and was dis
covered only by chance, some boys wading
in the creek catching sight of a portion OF
one leg. Examining this it was found to
have turned entirely into stone, which led
to the whole being dug out and carried to
the shore. The horse, large white one,
seems to be the work of cunning sculp-
tor, SO completely has the petriication
been, even the hairs of the name and tail
being converted into stone.
In the neck and piercing one of the larg-
est veins is an arrow, in all probability the
cause of it's death, and which probably
struck it as 1t stood on the banks of the
creek, into which it rolled in its death ag-
ony. Its sides still show the marks of q
saddle, and its tlanks are cut as by spurs
used with desperation, but no brand or
other mark gives clue to its rider.
In removing it from the stream one hoof
was unfortunately broken off, but with this
exception 1t is perfect. 1t ia now on exhi-
bition in StriDgtown, but is shortly to be
presented to the Smithsoniau Institution,
though several agents for dime museums
have endeavoled to secure it for their en-
terprises.

SERIOUS CHARGES. charges made
so freely in North Carolina against Mr..
Polk, president of the Farmers Alliance,
are too serious to be ignored by the big
body of which he is the head. He is oharg-
ed with having been coward in the late
war, and with having been caught by his
commander hiding behind wall. It is also
alleged that he is demagogue and no farm
er, that be owns no farm and that he uses
his position too boom his paper, the Pro-
gressive Farmer. The charges are of too
grave nature to be overlooked. Not only
should the Alliance Investigate them, but
Mr.. Polk should demand full investiga-
tion. The order SO largely revolutionary in
its aims should, if it expects to win public
confidence, have men at its head as will at
tract that confidence. The ranks of the
farmers of the South embrace thousands of
pure, able, brave and patriotic men who
love the calling and honor it, and whose
efforts in its behalf are disinterested, and
absolutely free from any mercenary taint.
When such men G II be had as leaders they
ought to be placed in the lead. Certainly
it hehooves Mr.. Polk and his order to have
a full investigation of the charges so freely
made in North Carolins.-Ricdmond Stqte.

She could sing and she could play,

But she couldn't and she wouldn't

And play tennis charmingly.

And I'm sure that we all know
She was shy.

She could play game of chance.
But she couldn't and she wouldn't
Make o pie.

Their winding mazes turn;
Thy fairy seet SO lightly go

And all my soul entrance.
How, as the web the spiders spin
And wanton breezes blow.
Thy soft and hlmy laces in

The cobweb meath thy chin that's crossed
Remains demurely put,
While those are ever whirled and tossed
That show thy saucy foot;
That show the silver craven tss OF
Thy stockings silkan sheen.
And mesh OF snowy skirts above
The silver that is seen.
How, as the spider, from his web.

Do thy sweet measures flow and ebb

REPUBLICAN WORKMAN

There is logic and good sense for you.
This working man sees that the protection
re cket is worked 10 the interest of the en-
ployer and not of the employed. He un-
derstands the game. He knows that cheap
foreign labor has been imported to super
cede intelligent American workmen and
drive them out of the labor market in their
own country. OF course the Press tries to
answer the workman with all the stock ar
guments of his school of political economy,
but the Press founders miseraoly and will
fail to convince his correspondent or any
other thinking man that the system which
throws him out Unemployment and reduces
him to poverty is beneficial either to the
claes to which he belongs or to the country
at large. It isa hopeful sigr for tariff re-
form when tha laboring men OF the country
begin tc investigate for themselves and
reach rational conclusions on economic
stions.-Lycnh6urg Nes0s.

TIE Leaven Working.

Evidently tho laboring men Of the coun-
try are doing good deal of thinking and
they are reaching conclusions not very ia.
vorable to the plans of those who have been
fleeing them for years and paying them of
with sweet words about protecting sthe
American labor. Now and then one of these
protected laborers goes into print and gives
the protectienist journals a hard nut to
crack. We Gull this communication from
the columns of the New York Press.
To the Editor to Lhe Press:
SlR.-"On account of sugar being free,
the poor man can to day purchase three and
a half pounds OF grauulsted sugar for six
teen cents. If other imports were free, why
could not he buy as cheap and have more
luxuries than theretofore2"
What benefit is protection to American
workmen when foreign manufacturers OPEN
ing manufactures of tin, etc., in the Uni
ted States employ and fill their factories
with foreign wOrkmen while Americans
will be compelled to walk the streets in
idleness? Is this protection to our Ameri-
can industries?
Give US absolute free trade, and that will
cause a halt 10 this trial wave of foreign
Immigration, and with limited immigration
the American workmen's condition will be
changed for the better, and then, we will
have ali the protection we need. SUP
pose you will neither publish nor answer
these facts.
