Remaining Public Lands.

The announcement is made from the United States general land of flee that of the public domain in the various states and territories there remain 6l0. .00) ,00D acres, of which l20, ,000,03 acres may be made available for agriculture by irriga- ton from storage reservoirs. Much of the rest must be either left uncul- tivated or irrigated in some other way. Here is field for the prof. essional ralnmakers. The land com missioner says, "Nery little desira- hle public land remains unapproprl- ated outside of the boundaries of what may be termed the arid region.
 At the same time the demand for homesteads is greater than ever be- fore, and grows greater each year. Ten million acres of the public do- main were disposed of to home steaders during the past year. Yet in Oklahoma there were twice as many entrymen as there were quar- ter sections. The same will be the case when the Cherokee strip comes into market. There are over 6 ,000,- 900 acres in this strip, and the gov ernment paid for it at the rate of S1 40 an acre. More than 30, ,000 settlers can find Judgment here. Many of these prospective home steaders are looking forward with the hope that the strip will be open ed to farmers in time for cultivation in 1892.

THE FORGE BILL.

Chairman Clarkson, of the Re- publican national committee, recently announced that the Republicans would press ''the negro question" in the next campaign. There is no such question, in fact. It is merely the outgiving of the political desperadoes who are now in control of the Re- publican party. The Democrats of the country, and of the South partic- ularly, are not afraid to submit It to the arbitration of the people at the polls. The Republicans are reduced, however, to the extremity of again attempting to conjure votes by way ing 'that nasty ensign of treason,' - the bloody shirt. Convicted of robbing the people through tie bil- lion dollar Congress and finding the doctrine of protection out of favor, they will strive to deceive the people into the belief that the negro is un. happy in the South, and that force bill is necessary to harvest the fruits of war fought 30 years ago. The people will sanction no such policy. Besides If force bill were enacted. it could not be made operative, for the Anglo-Saxon race can brook no such tyranny. The adoption by Southern States of the Australian ballot law, which was first made law in Massachusetts, makes it i'm possible to question the fairness of elections in the South. Messrs Reed and Lodge may desire vindication and they may commit their party to a force bill, but they will find that the people of these United States are too just, even to put the seal of approval upon force bills. There are too many North and South lines of railroad The spirit of con fraternity is abroad in the land in this jubilee year, when Northern and Southern States shall, at the Colum- bian Exposition, engage in friendly rivalries. It is not the time for sectional strife and the people will have no patience with the self seeking Politicians who shall attempt to disturb the kindly relations exist ing between the sections. The very fact that Chairman Clarkson pro- poses the issue is sufficient evidence that the cause of the Republican party is afflicted with rapid disinte- grafton. The tin-plate lars were able to save Ono and Pennsylvania last November, but their exposure has been complete since the elec- tion. MT.

Tribute to Woman.

Bulwer Lytton has most beautifully spoken of women in the following words:
 "A mans best friend is wife of good sense and good heart and one who loves him. In woman there is at once subtle delicacy of tact and plain sOundness of judgement which are rarely combined to an equal Ge- gree in man. A woman if she is really your friend, will have q sensitive regard for your character, honor and respect. She will seldom counsel you to do a shabby thing, for woman always desires to be proud of you. At the same time her constitutional timidity makes her more cautions than your male friend therefore she seldom counsels you to do an imprudent thing. Rely, then on her wisdom and faithfuness, and scorn the thought of proving un- faithful to the tenderness which, should occasion demand, would im- pei her willingly to die for you. as when the brutal Emperor Celandier commanded the death of the husband the wife, Aria stabbing herself, handed him the dagger with the immortal words, Paetus, it does mot hurt -
