SUMNER, H., Feb 5.-Miss Maggie
Wallace. beautiful young lady of this
city, has romance connected with her
life which was enacted in very short
time. Miss Wallace, who Ii an accom-
plished and well educated young lady of
20, has been for some time teaching in
the North Lancaster school house, few
miles south of here. About a score of
days ago Steven Gardner of Washington

home near here and went west to seek a
fortune, returned home in possession of
it. He is now large land owner in
that state. While here he visited Miss
Wallace's school, made her acguaint-
ance, escorted her home and proposed
marriage to her at the same time. 1t
seemed to be true story Of love at first
sight. Miss Wallace accepted, never
having known or heard of him before.
They were married and last night left
for their new home in the west.

EFTINGHAM. ILL.,, Feb. 5.-The Dwight
institute for the cure of the drink habit
is having a formidable rival in the re-
Gently established Groves Dipsomania
sanitarium of this city. DR.. j. N
Groves, the proprietor, is always max
ing investigations in his field of science.
Some months ago he began investiga-
tions on his own account for the scien-
titic cure of the liquor habit, and it was
not long before he made what he
thought was valuable discovery. He
first tested it on three or four of the
worst confirmed drunkards in the city
saying nothing to any one about the
matter. In two weeks every case was
cured. The appearance of the patient
on the street in a sober condition was a
revelation. When the cause of the great
change was known DIR. Groves leaped
into great notoriety. Local victims of
the liquor habit began to flock in in
great numbers, and the doctor had to
give up much of his regular practice
In the past few weeks the doctor has
treated upwards of 100 cases, and the
number Of applicants is rapidly increas-
ing. He has purchased one of the larg-
est brick hotels in the city to accommo-
date his patients.
The doctor seems to turn his patients
off sooner than the Dwight institute,
many confirmed drinkers have been
cured in one week. Few cases require
more than two weeks. The treatment
is similar to that of the Dwight cure,
but the doctor carefully guards its

WESTWARD THE PRESIDENTIAL B00M
WEHDS ITS war.

The New York World has been be.
sieged by some of Mr.. Cleveland's
friends to come out for Cleveland for
president as against Hill since the
snap convention was ordered. The
World prints some of the letters re-
ceived, and after criticising them,
proclaims its position as follows
"The World is devotiug itself to
the success of Democratic principles.
1t cannot consent TO divert its ener-
gies by taking part in personal con-
tentions. What it has said by way of
criticism, of Mr. Hill or by any way Of
approval of Mr.. Cleveland has been, in
each case, in suppo of these prlnci-
pies. The recent performances of Mr..
Hill's machine have been un-Demo-
cratic, therefore the World condemns
them. But in whatever it has said it
has not meant to advocate or oppose
the cause of either. 1t is not SO
much interested In the personal for
tunes of either of these two men as in
keeping the peace aud in carrying
the state and the country for
the Democratic candidate. 1t sincere
ly believes that any one of many
other eminent Democrats could be
elected and would be more availa-
BILE candidate if the present internal
fight in this State continues"
The last sentence, in the above is
significant, coming from one of the
most powerful newspapers in the land
and amply confirms the expressed
opinion of THE News that the Demo.
cratic party would have to look to the
west for candidate to carry the ban
ner to victory IN the coming fight
The antagonisms between Hill and
Cleveland in New York renders the
nomination of either impohtic. The
west must furnish the candidate.

THE CARA MOVEMENT.
Citizens of San Diego and
Vicinity
MEET AND PASS RESOLUTIONS

Relating to the Condition of Their Sec
tion-The Resolutions VIII BE Sent to
Governor Hogg Through Hon. John J.
Dix.
SAN DIEGO, Tex, Feb. 5.-The citi-
zens of San Diego and vicinity held a
meeting Thursday night and passed
resolutions relating to the condition of
this section, they being aroused by the
killing of one of the best citizens and
former officer of the county. A copy Of
the resolutions was given to Hon. John
J. Dix, member of the legislature from
this county, who will go in person to
Austin to see Governor Hogg. The
resolutions express the wish for and
show the necessity of rangers and sol
diers to suppress the lawless element in
this section and restore peace and quiet
to this now excited and unsettled border
section. Mr.. Dix went out ON the south
bound train and will consult General
Mabry at Pena on his way to Austin.
People are worked up to a pitch never
before seen here. They are in earnest
and are gratified at the way General
Mabry talks. A few soldiers and rangers
can do no good, but with the United
States soldiers in the towns and ranches,
with enough rangers to guide them, this
section can be relieved from the condi-
ton in which the CARA business has
placed it.

Allen FOR Coming silver Dollars
Not Considered by tie Treas
nry Capital Notes.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-TSpecial.l i
Senator Fred Dubois is the Mark Tapley
OF American politics. The New York
press prints an interview with the Idaho
Senator today in which that gentleman
takes an optimistic view of the Repubil-
can future. The senator makes the pre-
diction that not only will the Senate be
Republican after it shall have been con-
vened in extraordinary session after the
inauguration of President Cleveland. but
he further predicts that when the first
regular session of the Fifty-thlrd Con-
gress shall have ended the Republicans
will still be in control of the upper house.
He says in other words that the Repuo-
licans viii have control by virtue of the
fact that the Democrats viii not be able
to reorganize the House, but that the
populists will hold the balance of power
and viii act with the Republicans. He
does not believe that the Democrats will
succeed in getting more than one senator
in Wyoming, Nebraska, Montana, kans-
as and California.
Senator PETER, of Kansas, viii, he says,
vote with the Republicans to maintain the
present organization, and according to
Mr.. Dubois, Senator Stewart, of Nevada,
who viii come back as a populist after the
fourth OF March next, will also be taken
into the Republican fold and be treated
with marked consideration.
Mr.. Dubois will leave on Friday of this
week with the other members of the
House and Senate joint committee on
immigration for Key West, where they
will study for few days the problem OF
how to prevent cholera from securing a
Judgment in this country on the south
Atlantic coast.
The committee viii then go to Havana
where they viii also endeavor to acqaint
themselves with the city's sanitary con-
dition and see what restrictive measures
may be passed at this session of Congress
to prevent patients suffering from cholera
reaching this country from that point
On this trip Senator Dubois viii be &C
companied by his private secretary, Mr..
Borland, who will probably act as the
secretary of the committee.

THE MIX IN WYOMING.
Argument on the Demurrers of the
State CanYassing Board.
The Acknowledgement Gets Warm and
Attempts TO Score Mr.. Patterson for
Attacking the Court.

CHEYENNE, Dec. 21.-[Special. I'm
the supreme court today arguments were
heard on the demurrers of the state can
wasting board to the Carbon county petit
tioners.
The demurrers were on the following
grounds:
First-That the action should have been
brought in the district court.
Secondhand the supreme court had no
jurisdiction
Third-That the petition did not show
the canvass to have been legally held.
Fourth-That the petition did not show
facts sufficient to constitute cause OF
action.
R. W. Breckons opened on the second
proposition for the defendants. He
argued that each house according to the
constitution is the sole judge of the
qualifications OF its own members. Ii
the court granted the prayer of the re-
lators it would be assuming an EXCUSE
function of the legislative bodies. For
this reason alone the writ should be
denied.
Attorney General Potter scored Mr..
Patterson vigorously for his attack on the
dignity of the court and the opposing
counsel. He argued that the justices on
the county returning boards stood in the
same position as the governor does under
the constitution to the state board.
Neither were part of the boards though
required to be present.
| A. Campbell, for the petitioners, claimed
that writ of mandamus could issue to
compel the canvass of certain returns.
c. E. Blydenburg, for the petitioners,
and Judge Van Devanter, for the other
side. made the closing arguments. The
latter devoted most of his argument to the
point that the law meant that the clerk
alone constituted the board of county can
vassers. The argument that he would
thus be, if a candidate for Office, the sole
Judge of his own case. lost its force from
the fact that, from the power he had OF
selecting his adjusters of the peace, he
still had this power.
The court then adjourned to Friday, at
| IL a. N.
