A Wonderful FLY.

A flly which is expected TO break Sunol's
great 3-year-old record is Kentucky Union
This plucky youngster recently trotted "A
mile at Independence, Ia, in the remark
able time of 2:l49l. And this time was not
made in a trial with a racehorse ss a run
ner up, but in a driving race with seasoned
trotters. And Kentucky Union won In
three straight heats. When the present

TdylOr leaned against tree for support
And as the first beam Of the golden
sun touched the dead, Taylor crept down
to gaze upon his work. He came trem-
bling and afraid. His face was ghastly
pale, his teeth clicked together and his
limbs could hardly support him rs he
walked. His own brother could not
have identified him, so great was the
facial change He did not want TO APP
proach-he dreaded the sight which
would meet his gaze, but some mys-
terious power forced him along.
Revenge is mine and / will repay,
saith the Lord"
The fate which the outlaws meted ont
to the poor gold seekers had recoiled on
their own heads. but there was yet an
other to be punished. Taylor leaned
against a tree for support and surveyed
the bodies lying before him. He had
planned this. There was the wagon
there was the gold-there the horses.
He had but to drag the corpses to the
bank of the stream and roll them in,
and then harness up and move off. The
Big Cheyenne would not yield up the
corpses for days, and if found who
could tell how they died or discover
their identity? The route was clear Of
Indians, and he could tell a plausible
story to account for his possession of so
much treasure. He had invented a story
and gone over it in detail fifty times.
COmel All are deadl Dispose Of the
corpses. The treasure is yours.
But the man clung to the tree in a
dazed sort of a way. A look Of terror
crept into his eyes, never to leave them
again, and he moaned in distress as he
looked over the camp. The horses
whinnied for water and change Co new
feeding ground, but he needed them not.
The sun climbed higher and higher,
but he did not move. A full hour had
passed when he suddenly broke forth
in a mocking laugh, and this seemed to
give him physical strength. He threw
up his hands, shouted meaningless
words. and turned and fed as if pursued
by demons. Half mile away he hid
beneath the bushes, but not for long.
Terror reused him up, and he faced the
sun and dashed away over the earth as
men fly for their lives.
Night has come again on the great ex-
panse A dozen miles to the east Of the
spot where the dead still lie in their
stiffness the figure Of a man rises from
the earth as the dews of heaven fall 1t
is hard to tell whether it is the face Of a
man or some wild beast. The eyes are
sunken, the lips drawn, the cheeks like
those Of one who has hungered for a
week. He peers this way and that-he
skulks and crouches-he INDUCES in
strange and mysterious gestures.
"All deadl All dead! The gold is
mine-hai hal hal"
Revenge is mine and l will repay
saith the Lord"
1t is Taylor, and he is raving luna
tic-a madman whose very soul is being
shriveled by the awful fire within. Let us
leave him to God. himself and the dark
ness. When the sun comes up again its
rays will not soften the pallor Of an
other dead face. There are gaunt, fierce
wolves here-great wild eyed beasts
who are following at his heels and urg-
ing each other to make the first attack.

saw that Harrison's nomination means
success to the Democratic nominee,
provided the party makes no mistake.
That is certainly bad prOviso. Our

have become blinded by prejudice or
Stiffness and are piliDg mistake upon

that we will go blindly into their
primaries and place ourselves on
record as taking part in what we
have no interest. We wanted these
self constituted mentors of the people
to go ahead and make a platform for
the Democratic party to please them
selves exactly. We gave them the
whole field; lots of rope; but we did
not promise to take their medicine.

was an avowed meeting of the Third
party. The meeting of the Third party
was not thought of until the morning
of the assembly and your correspon-
dent with others proposed to organize
after the services as a more propitious
time could not be thought of. The
memorial services held until two o'clock
and the crowd was getting very restless
from hunger. but to the credit of a
great many, they stayed until an or
ganization very respectable and credit
able was formed out of the bone and
sinew of the old Democratic party that
is now being ignored throughout the
| Northern and Western States. The
| Citizens alarm is by no means fiighty
as to the political situation in Lincoln
county, with Cleveland as the standard
bearer. The new party is really com
posed of the best men in the county
too good and intelligent to follow the
plumed eagle of Wall street, antago-
nistic to all the reforms of the Alliance
The State Democratic platform went
squarely and unequivocally against the
Alliance, and when they nominated
the Wall street apostle, they unearthed
all the deception they have been prac-
ticing on us for years.
1t is to be hoped that our little rail
road editorial magnates will quit telling
the ignorant farmers how to make the
cotton and the corn, or even how to
vote. Tell us, if you please, how much
money is going to be saved to us after
we vote for your false-god. Tell us, we
pray thee, Solomon of letters, how to
sell this cotton and corn for a good
price after we make it, and we will
thank thee for telling US something we
don't know.

of the Wall street plutocracy and
supports Cleveland. What it says,
in plain English, is about this: That
Southern Democrats must vote on f.
nancial questions so as to subserve the
interests of the money power, instead
of the people at large, or the Eastern
Democrats (so-called) will unite with
the Republicans and leave the South
to suffer the consequences of Force
bill for their independence. In other
words, the threat of a Force bill is be-
ing used by the Eastern supporters of
Mr.. Cleveland to eoerce Southern
Congressman into supporting legisla-
tion in the interest of the money pow
er. There is nothing in the Force
bill talk, as a matter of fact, that need
alarm the South, but as scare

the money power, quite as well as the
other. Such utterances as the Times
