just one year ago, lacking few days,
General Sickles, who is now support
ing the Republican party, on the
ground that Mr.. Cleveland was unjust
to the Federal soldier while occupying
the Presidency, made a speech at Utica
N. Y, in which he expressed himself
in the following emphatic terms:
Now as to President Cleveland's re-
cord in behalf of the soldiers. They
charge that he has vetoed good many
pension bills. So he had have read
his views. l am soldier. | love my
soldiers. Had been President and
Congress had passed such bills for my
soldiers. l should have vetoed every
one of them, too. They were mostly
all frauds and shams, and had no
frauds under me. Any right-minded
man, sworn to discharge his duty,
would have signed these vetoes as
President Cleveland did,
Thus spoke General SicIles before
he had allowed feeling of spite to
warp his views. He is refuted out of
his own mouth, and placed in a posi-
ton in which he should properly for
felt the respect of all fair-minded men.

HOPE STILL MoURNs.
The Farmers Bank Creditors Are
Holding the Bag.


lIOPE, Jan. 2S.-Jhe situation OF
the Farmers bank matter remains as
unsolyable as ever Not word has
yet been heard from w. T.. Robinson
nor has anyone an idea Of his where
abouts. lie gave IL out that he was
going TO Abilene when he left but II is
generally believed that he has skipped
the country and is now in Mexico OF
Canada. The theory Of his having met
with foul play has few supporters as he
has always been abundantly able to
take care Of himself. lie had no conf
dants and was extremely retlcent
regarding his affairs.
The number OF creditors proves to be
larger than was at FIRST expected az
Robinson was the only banker in this
section and nearly every family had an
account, large or small. II is estimat-
ed that the total Of these will reach
oyer $4,000 One farmer, Mr.. Ruff
ner, put 81 300 in the bank only Satur,
day. The creamery loses about $500,
aud the merchants all have accounts
there. Under Sheriff Kieffer yesterday
afternoon took possession Of every
available resource and at liberal
appraisement found only S568 worth
Of material. Instead Of $4,000 in real
estate as shown by the bank statement
there Is only 5000 worth, most OF the
realty being in Mrs. Robinson's name.
The safe has not yet been broken open.
$. +. Robinson, who was expected
last evening from Oklahoma, failed to
arrive but sent word that he WAS busy
In court and could not come.
II appears that there has not been
for three years any company in charge
Of the bank, although Robinson has
always signed himself rs cashier and
the banks letter heads bore list Of
officers. The company formerly own
ing the bank dissolved about two years
ago and Robinson has been sole pro-
prletor since.
1t II not expected that the safe will
show any assets when IL is finally
opened and all creditors have probably
lost all their deposits, Everyone has
now remarkable hindsight and
admits that the bank was considered
shaky months ago, but each thought II
would stand awhile longer. No one
seems to have imagined that Robinson
would decamp though 1t would not
have been unexpected had he deter
mined at any time TO close mp his
business.

insOn talked to him, Treated him and
induced him tn let it. lie until this week
This morning early some parties who
had accounts broke into the vault and
dragged out the safe, taking 1t out in
the street, claiming AN attachment ON
IL. The safe is good one and has not
yet been opened, The creditors will
meet Feb. . at p m. to decide on n
course Of action.
The Dispatch gives an interesting
story of Robinson's hatred for the
town. 1t says: During the boom in
Hope hehad stone hauled into one of
the streets with which to build u stone
bank but decided not to build. The
stone occupied the street until they be-
came an eyesore to everybody and were
really a nuisance. The city council
ordered them removed time and again
and finally arrested him and fined him
$50. For this he swore vengeanceion
the town. lie was city treasurer and
had trouble with the city and at one
time came near being handled with
the law, His next move was politically
when in order to protect himself llnan.
cially, as he expressed it, he deserted
his friends. His first and only speech
in the campaign of 1890 was to declare
that he had "Skiuned several parties 10
and around Hope, and there were sew.
eral more he intended to skim Not
long after he had family trouble and
his wife left him. The people OF Hope
said little about the affair and when a
RIM on the bank was started the bust.
ness men came to his rescue and II was
stopped without harm. This seemed
to have no good effect with him. Those
who started the run were branded by
him, and he seemed determined TO
continue the fight. lie has won. The
bank is closed aud many are numbered
among the skinned" There are
some who try to think he has been
foully dealt with but the great major
ity of the people are of one mind, viz:
that his threats have been executed
and they are holding the bag
There is now splendid chance for
good businessman to start a bank at
Hope. Every merchant would stand
by him aud he would find the most
lucrative support throughout that
part of Dickinson which is now without
banking house.

there never was boy who would hcsi-
tate TO do this work when he thought
of what the result of it was to be.
Abraham Lincoln, of whom YOU have
all heard, laid the foundation Of his
greatness when he was n boy by taking
time to read. lie did not have the
great variety of good books and papers
that are to be had now; but lie found
the best he could and made the most OF
them. As gas and kerosene lamps were
not in use in the time of his boyhood,
and even candles were not to be OBJ
tanned by him, he was glad to avail
himself of torch made from pine
knot and sitting over the fireplace on
a winter night in his home, which was
a rude cabin, | dare say he enjoyed
what he read better than anything he
found to read IN later life. when all the
modern books and facilities were ut his
hand. ! know this is not u new story
that am telling you; but it illustrates
so well what | want to say that
would be glad If you could hear II over
and over again, so that you may never
forget IT,
1t supplies for all OF us, in fact, very
good lesson to remember. II makes
emphatic the truth that what we get
through difficulties we get most thor
oughly and retain longest. You will
learn when you are older that into all
your attainmcnts and successes qucs-
ton enters which we call cost. In other
words, you have had to give something
for them-timc, toll, or money. Atany
rate, either you have given it, il you
obtained the object you desired or some
enc else has given it for you. DO you
remember the story of the King who
asked the great mathematician for some
easy method whereby his boy, whom he
inclined to favor, might be enabled to
obtain a knowledge Of mathematics?
But he was told there is no royal road

desirable success II would not have
