The attempted organization of a third

The attempted organization of third
party by the industrial conference which
has been in session at st. Louis for sew
eral days past, has given rise to num-
ber of bitter controversies among the
delegates, and threatens to divide the
forces Of the assembly. The southern
delegates Object TO the endorsement Of
the third party movement on the ground
that secession from the democratic par
ty would only strengthen the republi-
cans, and threaten to withdraw from
the conference should any such step be
taken. The southern democrats are
level headed. They recognize the in
significance of the independent political
organization, and the utter hopelessness
of an attempt 10 accomplish anything in
national politics. and realizing that se-
cession from the old party would only
strengthen the opposition, they refuse
to do it. 1t would be well for those who
have been, and are now republicans at
heart, but who have left the party to
follow aImlessly the ignis fatnus of
politics. to consider the situation as SEN
sibly and candidly as have these south
ern democrats. The republican who
leaves the old allegiance for the new
and uncertain one, is only strengthening
the party which is the bitter enemy of
the re forms which he thinks are neces.
sary, and which he hopes to bring about.
How much more sensible would be his
views, how much more potent his
efforts, if he would stay with the old
ship whose course has been so true and
steady in the past, and If he believes ii
to be wavering now, to use his vote and
his Influence to steady it, and direct il
arIght.

CHEYENNE Wyo., April ls.-There
try yesterday. The Buffalo wire was
still down. A number of refugees
from johnson county have arrived in
Cheyenne. but they bring nothing in
the way of news except that the coun-
try is terrorized by rowing bands of
armed rustlers.
A Gillette s(Wyo.) special says
Colonel Van Horne left Fort Mckinney
yesterday with Hesse, Ford and Elliot,
three of the cattlemen demanded by
the johnson county rustlers- He was
in command of three troops of cavalry,
and his destination was Fort Douglas.
Trouble is feared, as thou

Van Horne to do so. 1t is thought that
Van Horne has changed his course and
will bring his prisoners to Fort Russell,
near here, where the Seventeenth in
fantry is stationed. No word has been
received from the troops Many wires
are down, and it is thought they have
been cut by rustlers.
A number of people fleeing from
the rustler country have passed through
Cheyenne. Their stories are SO frag.
mentary that the only reliable report
gained from them is that the rustlers
have completely terrorized johnson
county. One OF the stockmen arriv-
ing here last night shows a notice

five days or be killed. He says dozens
of the fleeing cattlemen have received
similar notices. Both the governor
and General Brooke. who have been in
constant telegraph communication
with each other. are anxiously await
ing news from Fort Mckinney.
1t is now admitted by the citizens
here that Sheriff Angus has had the
wire cut in order TO prevent an order
being sent from General Brooke to
Colonel Van Horne at Fort Mckinney
to deliver the prisoners to Governor
Barber at Cheyenne. Public fear is
growing. Few can be found who adj

They Fan the Subject Of An Anxious
Cabinet Discussion.
WASHINGTON, April 2O.-The ''rust-
lers" trouble in Wyoming was the
principal topic of discussion at the
meeting of the cabinet We serday. ALI
the members We're present except the
secretary of the treasury and attorney
general.
The situation is regarded as serious
in view of the fact that tue feeling
against the prisoners is very bitter;
more so because of the freely expressed
threats of desperate men that they
pion and Ray at the first opportunity.
No word has been received from Col
onel Van Horne and his captive at Fort
Mckinney since Saturday morning,
when he telegraphed General Brooke
at Omaha that he would start that day
for Douglas to turn his prisoners over
to the civil authorities.
Efforts to communicate with Fl.
Mckinney and vicinity since that date
have failed and this has led to the be-
lief that the rustlers or their sympa-
thizers have cut all telegraph wires so
as to prevent the authorities from
learning the true situation of affairs
until their own purposes had been
accomplished.
A telegram was sent to General
Brooke yesterday morning asking for
the lates. information on the subject.
He telegraphed in reply that Colonel
! Van Horn, with force of 125 men, had
started from Fo-t Mckinney with his
prisoners on the 10th inst. for Fort
Russell and that he General Brooke)
does nAt anticipate any trouble on the
route.

on the Rock Island railroad just inside
the Indian lands, to-day it is a town of
800 inhabitants.
Yesterday mornings train from Cald-
well had five coaches. After it came q
Wichita special of eight coaches.
All these were loaded to the platform
with men who came to build town at
Okarche.
The train had halted Just outside the
line until exact noon and then ran for
Okarche at full speed. There was a
wild scene at the station. Men jumped
out of the windows and rolled off the
platforms in swarms.
A town site had been established
containing $500 lots, but these were
not marked off and there was a gen.
eral scramble. Every man drove his
stake where he saw fit, and many got
in the middle of the streets.
There were over twenty women in
the party and they all drove stakes
too. There has been a grocery store
and lumber yard quietly established
in Okarche for several days in ADticipa-
ton OF this boom. Both are doing q
mighty business.
About the first men to alight in town

Texas II In It.

HreeISs, Tex, April 2O.-Of the
la I,omers that were waiting in this
vicinity for the opening of the Chey-
enne and Arapahoe country at noon
yesterday. but few were to be seen at
the opening hour. Monday night and
at early dawn of day people could be
seen going toward the promised land
with view of stationing themselves
near the line nearest to their prospec-
tive claims. All the west line in Texas
and along the north line in the Chero-
kee strip people were waiting for the
proper hour and some claims were
taken Tithin a few miles of this place
but most of the rush was for the CEN
ter of the county and for the county
seat.
No accidents have lsen reported. 1t
is hard to state how much land has
been taken but it may be said more
than half can yet be had.

lined up the boys At HAS
o'clock, and after giving those in line
a talk went to the head Of the line,
where he stood with head uncovered
while three cheers were given for him.
Secretary Noble and Captain Woodson
were also cheered.
Captain Woodson, with but forty
two men, successfully guarded forty
five miles of frontier. The soldiers
were continuously on duty seventy
two hours.

Rock Island special train, pulled by
two engines for Okarche, beating all
competitors and took the proposed
townsite as homestead. The palace
car boomers were much Disguised. 1t
was a very pretty race. however and
was cleverly managed by the Rock
Island. The distance is less than two
miles and the bride rein beat the
throttle in that race. The claim will
be contested by the township boomers.
A short time before the signal was
given the news went along the line
that the noted Daltons had arranged
to rob Kingfisher while the inhabi-
tants were viewing the sights. and
many returned to their homes in King
fisher and failed to see the race.

town of Cimarron, north of Kingisher.

all being on foot, they were soon passed
by the more fortunate, and few of the
colored people will secure homes in the
