a HOT CAMPAIGN.

The coming Presidential campaign
promises to be hot. There is no reason
why it should be, only that campaigns
are not supposed to amount to anything
unless they are hot
1t would be novel and interesting
state of affairs if the campaign could
be made cool. The average American
has but one vote, and he is not always
certain of that.
Why cannot he go off quietly some
whore and commune with himself as to
how that vote shall be cast? He can If
he wants to, but, not being so smart and
aggressive as some would be leaders
aim to be, he waits until tho campaign
gets hot and he then heats up himself
and lets the leaders pick out his choice.
The Force bill and Tariff issues ar,
the main ones before the people and it
would be a great boon if each voter
would fix his mind himself instead of
taking it second hand.

Courts have decided repeatedly in is
favor, even President Lincoln once or.
dered patent to be issued to him, but
1T was defeated by chicanery. Records
have been mutilated against his inter.
est and officials debauched, but Nectar
rahan has steadily fought on. All he
asked from Congress was permission to
carry his case to the court of private
land claims, and now President Harri.
son has killed the chance.
