Democratic editors in Kansas are ad-
vising the party 10 hold aloof from
all disintegrsting outside entanglements
Of every character. They favor shun-
ming the alliance and the so-callsd
third party both as tending merely
to weaken democratic influence aud thus
help the Republican party. They say it is
going to be fight this fall between demo
Gratis and republicans just as it has been for
years and all the democrats who vote for
any side Issue are simply crippling the
Democratic party strength to that extent
Those Kansas democratic editors are en-
dowed with admirably astute perceptions.

Detectives are giving the criminals OF the
country a great shaking up in their hunt
for murderer Frank Almy, who shot the
young New Hampshire school teacher aud
claimed to be from Savannah. They have
caught nearly every stray culprit IN Nsw
England except the man wanted-atter the
usual manner of detectives. But Almy
turns out to be one Of those southerners
born up in Maine, of whom we hear so
much in the newspapers of late. That is
pretty hard on the Pine Tree state. At the
same time it is a source Of relief to Savan>
nah. Late reports say that the butcher is
making for this city, and the police should
give him greeting.

Those poor young men up at Tennille are
really In pitiable plight when they are
driven to formally ''boycotting" the young
ladies of the town because they ''go with
small boys" They are also greatly grieved
and somewhat ''riledn because the aforesaid
wicked young ladies make two engage
ments for the same night" That's bad.
That's uuquaIihsdly reprehensible. From
this distance two engagements for the
same night" seems too much like work-de-
pendiug somewhat on how one is engaged,
however. But those young men appear to
be in a position slightly resembling the
young darby who was locked out Of

Since Editor Dana has fastened his WE'LL
known brand of hoodoo upon Gov. Davie
Hill, he has dropped that very aspiring citi-
zen as presidential possibility and pro-
ceeded to hoodoo Senator German, of
Maryland and Gov. Gray of Indiana. No
man that the New York Sun Endorsed could
ever get a democratic nomination. To be
unqualifedly approved and publicly COM
mended by Charles A. Dana would blast
any mans reputation and political prospects
Even his own friends would thus have some
reason to hold him in suspicion. Nobody
has ever beea known to revel in his blight
ing esteem who was not suspected to be
capable of partisan trickery and not above
political treachery. So the victims Of his
fatal favor in the present instance would do
we'll to shake him off ns soon as possible il
they want to stand any chance for the
nomination.

Give the Pines a Chance.

In a recent issue of the Garden and
Forest Miss E. F. Andrews, of Washington,
Ga, has an interesting article, which con-
tains some sentiment and a great deal of
common-sense, relative to the destruction of
the pine forests of this state
There is no doubt that the pine forests are
rapidly disappearing For miles and miles
back from the main lines of railway
through the pine belt of the south there are
comparatively few pine trees that are fit
for lumber. The naval stores farmers and
the sawmill men have completed the work
of destruction 80 effectually that only
stumps and bushes and few dead trees are
seen where once were only stately pines,
through whose foliage the wind made sad
music like the breaking sea upon the shore.
But what is to be dones Everybody
knows that the pine forests cannot continue
to furnish their stores of turpentine and
resin and lumber very many years. In a
recent argument before the railroad COM
mission Mr.. S. G. McLendon, of
Townsville, stated that 'the state
81, 900 00O, 900 feet of lumber in her stand
ing trees The estimate made in the ninth
volume of the tenth census was
only about half this much" Ii half the
forests were destroyed in ten years, how
long will it be before they will disappear
Altogether at the present rate of destruction9
Miss Andrews thinks that the legislature
should make a law for the protection of
young pine trees-and that no trees less
than eighteen inches in diameter should be
cut for turpentine or felled for lumber
A law OF that kind would undoubtedly be
productive of good results. And it would
be helpful in creating sentiment against
the wanton destruction of pine trees and in
favor of protecting the young trees.
It is estimated that the pines reproduce
themselves once in thirty three years, but
Mr. McLendon thinks that once in 100 years
would be nearer the truth. The protection
of the pine forests Of the state is certainly
a matter for the consideration of the legis-
lauure.

AT PITrsBURG LAGDING.
When Luke found himself "a prisoner OF
the Tennessee brigands no fully expected
that his last moment had come. Had his
captors been regular COnfedcrates, his life
would have been safe, but no knew that
these partisan warriors, no better than
brigands with their primary objects blood
and plumber, set all military law at de
hance, aud seldom or never spared pris-
oner
The captive was resigned TO his fate,
however. He had entered the army fully
realizing the dangers which attended such
life, and taken his chances; now that fate
hnd formed the decree against him he had
determined to murmur not
"Well, Yank," bawled great, clustering
fellow, coming up TO where the prisoner sat,
his hands tIed behind his back, "you've got
ter SWING, that's all thar is o. IT,"
He paused, expecting TO see his captive
go down on his knees and implore mercy,
but Captain Mason was firm aud unmoved,
hrs eye meeting his euemys without quail
ing. Finding that he made no answer, the
guerrilla added:
"What dye say q III"
Nothing"

"No; am unable to defend myself"

Half dozen started toward the captive
as IL they would put the threat into execu-
ton, when some one evidently high in au-
thority put a stop 10 the proceedings. Luke
did not know why he did 50, but realized
that his fate was deferred To future time
The arrival OF n country boy with some
alarming intelligence threw the guorrillas

in conclusion.
The parting was an aircctionate one. The
lover would have kept her at his side n he
could have done so, but she assured him
that she had friends and relatives able to

not far away, demanded her personal atten-

A native Hawaiian Mormon with
his wife and four children returned
on Tuesday by the steamship Aus
tralia. They left Hawaii nei about
two years ago on the steamship UNA
tilla for Salt Lake City, Utah, which
the Mormon elders had painted to
their imagination as the promised
Zion. They were we'll to do when
they left their native land, but re-
turned needy. They stated that
when they resided at Salt Lake City
they Jared well; but when they were
removed to another town, about sixty
miles away, they were treated like
prisoners. not being paid for their
services, and not even receiving any
pecuniary help whatever. According
to their statement, there are still
seventy Hawaiian Mormons left at
Salt Lake City. Some of them have
accepted the tickets forwarded to
them for their passage home by Ha-
waiian Consul General Mckinley of
San Francisco, and will return at an
early date; but others have deter
mined to remain at Salt Lake City
and endure poverty and hardship
rather than come home, because they
think that after having sold all their
lands here at the persuasion OF the
Mormon elders, they cannot over
come their sense Of shame.
