THE candidacy of Knute Ne.soH lcs
governor Of Minnesota is rapidly gain
ing in favor both in the urban and rural
districts. The wisdom of the nominal
ton is too apparent to be lightly con-
sidered. In this connection the HERALD
would earnestly urge the denomination
of G. S. Ives for. Lieut.-governor as his
Just due. .Dursno the last season he was
presiding officer in name 0ply-the demo

essence Of his position by the nnpseee-
dented sdiscourtesy of taking the ap-
pointment of committees from him. He
should be given the Office again and
clothed with all abe honors and resBon-
ssihifities appertaining thereto. Under
the Circumstances he acquitted himself SO
eliscreetiy and Loyalty that this, and ad-
dffioaal honors, sheEld be accorded him
with enthusiastic unanamity. Further
more, he would strengthen the ticket
both in dignity and at the polls,

BLAINE OR HARRISON.

The following interesting bit of politi
cal gossip was very good indeed for a
day, but it was ruined on the following
day by fat denial made by'friends OF
President Harrison. However, it is as
reliable as any of the current political
news, and reads well:
A special from Cape May, says: Presi-
dent Harrison will, before the meeting OF
the republican national convention OF
1892, declare, over his own signature, in
the most emphatic manner, that he is
not candidate for the nomination to be
made by that convention. He has writ
ten Chairman Clarkson, of the national
committee, and Stephen B. Elkins, that
they might inform those republicans,
who are taking sides either for or against
the denomination of the president, that
they are doing so unnecessarily. The
decision of the president not to permit
his name to 60 before the convention
was made with some reservations. These
reservations depend upon three coudi-
tons.
First-If the present bitter opposition
within the republican party to Mr.. Har-
IlSOu SheAh ahSh'
next spring, he will withdraw.
Second If Mr.. Blaine shall be well and
strong enough to take the nomination,
and the party's demand tor him con-
tinues as strong and sincere as it appears
at the present time, Mr.. Harrison will
withdraw.
Third-If Mr.. Blaine, having sufficient
health and strength. shall lie willing to
take the nomination, Mr.. Harrison will
withdraw.
Mr.. Blaine knows that the president
occupies this position. Mr.. Garrison.
Mr.. Elkins. Mr., Quay and Mr.. Platt
know it. MIR. Quay has been advised
not to force his Blaine hoom in Pennsyl-
vania and he has called halt. The
Harrison-BIaine program, which all the
bosses have been given chance to fill in
with, is that no movement" shall be
instituted for a presidential aspirant,
neither. for the president, nor for MIR.
Blaine. nor for any other man If it can
be prevented The party without manip-
ulation or organized efforts to influence
it is to be permitted to make its own
choice for president.

The special session of the legislature
for the. purpose of making an increased
appropriation for the worlds fair does
not meet with general favor in this city.
Hon. Kittel HaIverson. representative
alliance man, is Of the opinion that $780,
600, judiciously applied. will make avery
satisfactory exhibit. Henry Keller is of
the same opinion. He says that it is
sufficient to make splendid exhibit of
our agricultural resources. and if the
granite and iron men, lumber dealers
and stock raisers want to show their
goods and wares they are abundantly
able to pay for it. If the state will fix
ND a place and furnish the room there
will be no lack of money from men who
are interested to make good and
suitable display. Joseph Capser doubts
whether the legislature would increase
the appropriation even il called together
for tn purpose; and he is of the opin-
ion that If once convened it would be
impossible to guard against other bust
ness being taken mp. Mr.. Petit thinks
the worlds fair the atestopportunity
the state will ever haye-at least for
many years-for showing its resources
to the world, and Minnesota ought not
to be behind its sister commonwealth
in the matter of advertising her natural
RESOURCES. He is not satisfied that an
extra session of the legislature is the best
method of raising the money. c. M.
Sprague thinks it would I've unwise, even
dangerous, to call the legislature to-
gether in extra session. Gen. Catterson
thinks an extra session might do provid-
ing nothing else were done, and there
was a certainty of the appropriation
being increased. j.. A. Norris would like
to see more money available, but is not
satisfied that an extra session is the
proper thing. In fact, the great pre-
ponderence of sentiment here is unfavor-
able ia an extra session.

A Summer "Reminiscences.
Especial Correspondence.1

SUMMIT, N. j., Nov. 16-I camped out
| for some time last summer at Dingman's
Ferry, Pa, and while there my friend and
myself aimed to see all that was of inter-
est in the surrounding country.
OF course we went down to the back
woods village on Saturday night, as that
was the time to- see it in all its bowling
glory. To compare Monday night, for
instance, to Saturday night in that
settlement would not be more absurd
than to compare that favorite Brooklyn
beverage known as mead with cham
pagne. The farmer from Wayback sat
on the tavern stoop making weather pre-
dictions based upon certain movements of
the ground hog, occasionally blowing u
mouthful of smoke into the air, and ex-
changing ideas with the edignitary who was
at once the barber. the dentist and the un-
dertaker of the village. The negro over
whose sable brow about ninety-eight sum-
mers had lightly passed sat in an old arm
chair, holding a cane in each hand and
talking about his rheumatism He couldn't
move without the aid of these canes ex-
cept when invited to partake of spirituous
refreshment. At such a time he would
forget his rheumatism and canes, and
reach the bar as though on wings.
While watching the movements of these
people lantern was seen down the road
in front of another tavern. There seemed
to be great deal of excitement in that
particular region, and we moved in its di-
rection. Upon our arrival we were treated
to an exhibition of boxing by native tai
ent that was highly interesting to those
bystanders that were blessed with mod
crate sense of humor. One of the boxers
always made it point to jump when hit
or struck at. He never failed to do this,
and it so disturbed the patience and peace
of mind of several amateurs present that
they couldn't refrain from making un-
pleasant criticisms on his style.
The man that held the lantern had about
the hardest time of it, because he was so
deeply interested in the boxing that he sell
dom had his light high enough Occasion
ally one of the contestants would rush
In and hit the lantern with his head.
Then the man holding it would raise it as
high as he could reach, which would give
the boxer getting the worst of it an oppor-
tunity to say that he couldn't see his oppo-
nent's eyes.
Still the jumping boxer continued jump
ing like jumping jack until one of the
amateurs present asked bystander if he
could account for such strange departure
in the practice of the manly art,
Certainly" was the reply. HE can't
help it."
"Has he St. vitus' dancer" was the next
inquiry.
No, but it's second nature for him to
jump that way. He's professional rat

Black Tiger Still ut Large.

Special 10 me GaZeJLS
PARIS. LAMAR COUNTY. TEX, July IA
Some time ago 1t was reported in The Ga
ZETTE and other papers that the notorious
Cochalustee, or Black Tiger, the Greek In
dian desperate, had surrendered TO the OIL
GERS at Fort Smith. II was thought here
by the officers that the story was fake,
and the reports receiy ed yesterday prove
them correct.
Deputy Sam Williams came in from the
Seminole country, and reports that on Wed
nesday Deputies Mccall, DickersoI and
Weaver fought Blacl; Tiger at Robert Bur-
ner's, in the Seminole Nation, about ten
miles from Sasollla. They had heard that
he was in that section and were scouting
for him. Tiger also had heard that they
were in there and had i scout out for them
This scout they captured, and he agreed in
return for his liberty, to carry them into
the Tigers lair. Before starting they went
up to a house from which they had Dor
rowed some cooking utensils; meanwhile
Tiger had grown alarmed at the long alb
Sence of his scout, and started out to recon
hotter for him. The first place he went to
was the house from which the deputies had
borrowed the things. AMI when they rode
up unexpeC teddy, there they found Tiger
also. With him We're Polmuskee and Big
Head George. They were al in the house
when the marShais rode up and discovered
the situation before the officers did The
house was closely surrounded by thickets
and It was easy 10 make rush for cover
in the brush. Some fifteen or twenty shots
were fired but the whole gang gOt away.
Tigers horse and their whisky pcdGline'
outfit. with 4 large amount of whisky were
captured. II is thought, from. information
received since the fight, that Tiger was
wounded in the leg.

MISTAKEN ECONOMY.
Where the Sagacity OF sidney Dillon is Be
ing shown


When the pressure of hard times began
To be felt, and possible receiverships be-
gan TO stare many Western roads in the
face. az EFFORT % reCoup WAS made by re
dUciu2 the force OF shopnen. While il
was. in many cases, for Il few weeks only.
the result WAS Il vastly improved showing
on the reports of quarterly earnings, and
as soon as the reports went in the work was
resumed.
Now ne loss of time and work is begin
min" 10 make Itself felt. Many roads have
kept their car ana locomotive shops run
ming on fun time. and their cars and en-
gincs are now il good condition for the fall
work. Other roads. which reduced their
forces, are now compelled 20 work over
time and the result is they are in serious
danger Of being handicapped by lack Of
scrviccabIe rolling stock 20 move the crops
When Sidney Dillon made his inspection
tour over the Union Pacific he found many
Of he shops temporarily shut down, and AT
once gave orders that they should be kept
on full time. The result Is the Union Pacific

'0r cars which viii come within the next
few weeks.
Already many OF the Southern lines are
beginning 20 beg. borrow and steal all the
cars they can secure, and the advance wave
Of the coming car panic is almost upon us.
The result IS that many roads now realize
that the reducing of their shop forces was
mistaken economy. and though while salts
factory as i temporary eXpedient. the result
Is likely to be loss OF revenue for the want
of sufficient cars, that will he Greatly in
excess of the saving made in May and June.
II is probable that the roads viii soon come

men employed than 10 reduce force. and
then when pressure IS put upon the shops
they are not handicapped by the lack of

AS TO TRAFFIC.
Why Texas Railroad Projects are Favors-
bly, Regarded by Investors

Many people seem to have an idea that
crops constitute almost the entire freight
traffic of roads, but this is mistake The
movement of grain is only one factor,
albeit an important one in max
ing up the tonnage. It is true
that earnings are largely in
fuenced by crops, but its effect upon the
roads depends largely upon the location of
the lines. Given 4 line that passes through
prairie, timber and mineral regions, on
have one whose traffic does not
depend solely upon Granger products. Such
a line is the proposed Red River, Sabine
and Western, and the Iron Mountain
These lines have timber, iron. lead
zinc and agricultural products, hence
q failure of crops, while af-
fecting the revenue, does not impair
it. This is true in a great measure of the
For Worth and Rio Grandc, except that
livestock and fruits take the place of lum-
Der, lead and and zine Again, reads like
those in Kansas depend almost entirely
upon the crop products, and a future
in crops shows up disas trously in the earu-
ings reports, yet these lines are able to off
set this by through tonnage, which IS not
accessible to the Texas lines.
There are no roaGS in Texas that are seri-
ously disconnected by failure of crops
The traffic producing products of the state
are so many and so diversified that failure
of crops does not necessarily mean a deficit,
though, of course, it has its effect on
the volume of the revenue. Il Is for this
reason that Texas railroad projects are so
favorably regarded by investors: 4 failure
of crops does not imply failure to pay i'll
terest, or even dividends.
