AN UNEQUAL CONTEST.

The Idea Of the eastern senator's try
ing TO wear out the men from the west
is absurdity. The men who took their
satchels In their hands and turned their
faces toward the land where the sun
sets, and went GA 20 seek their fame
ana fortune In the new west, are not the
KIND or men TO be worn out or driven
by those men who never crossed the
Missouri river: The hardy braVe
pioneers that blazed civilizations way
across the lonely prairies
and soundless solitudes and
planted ire banner of progress
upon the peaks of the western con-
tineDt are not TIE class of men that sur
render at will. The senator's that are
now battling for the life of silver and
the interest of good government. cannot
be bulldozed, driven or worn out by
long hours of debate. And had those
eastern senators who live in luxury and
ease ever given the subject proper con-
sideration they would have come to this
conclusion at once. The men and
women OF the west are stayers; they
were reared in the mldst of danger and
hardships that fit them we'll for the
battle of life; and days after these worn
out old men from the east are under
the physicians care for their present
freak of bad faith, the western men will
still be in the harness laboring for the
interests of the country t6ey represent.
God bless the west!-Gazette.
The Gazette is eminently correct as
may be seen by the following telegram
dated New York Oct. 16, 1893:
Senator Watson c. Squire. OF Wash
ington state, and exSecretary Wilbur
f. Saunders, of Montana, arrived from
Washington. Secretary Saunders
declares that the unconditional repeal
of the Sherman act is dead. While Mr..
Saunders was chatting Colonel Thomas
G. Ochiltree walked into the Fifth
Avenue hotel. Catching sight of the
Montana man he exclaimed:
"Ah senator, see my old friends in
the sepate are standing by their guns
What horrible mistake the gold bugs
made when they counted on firing out
the silver senators. Why, Ed. VOL
colt and Santa Claus Stewart and
Jones and the rest of them were never
known to 60 to bed until six or seven
o'clock in the morning. I've played
poker with them for twenty-four hours
at stretch aud then you had to keep
your eye peeled or they would t eeze
you out. l tell you when you try to put
that crowd to sleep you have under:
taken the biggest job man ever hao
on his hands. I'll bet on the poker
crowd every trip"
Il believe you're right colonel" re.
piled Senator Saunders, who knows a
little about the game himself. "Wol
colt never sleeps, and as for Jones,
believe he can 60 year without wink.

CONGRESSMAN COCKRELL.

Congressman Cockrell is making an
honest and intelligent record in the
house of representatives. Recently
during q debate upon southern war
claims, he took occasion TO protest
against the payment of any claim where
the clsiments had gone into rebellion.
He said that he himself had $4,000
worth of cotton confscated, for which
he never expected a cent. He daily
received letters from constituents who
were demanding payment from tie gov
eminent for what he deemed were the
just spoils of war He would always
oppose bitterly the payment by this
government Of any money to citizens
who had forfeited all claims upon it by
going into open rebellion against it.
Mr.. Cockrell is a leve-headed repre-
sentative of the people. and is sound
upon the silver question and upon any
other issue that concerns the interests
of his constituents.-ElP aso Bullion.

Certificate
Fight on the Line.

A battle occurred on the border a
few days ago, between a gang of ten
bandits under Pancho Rivera and the
gendarmes, mounted soldiery connected
with the customs force. Shooting was
done, hari and heavy. One of the bandits
was killed and two of the gendarmes
wounded. The fight occurred just
south of Cochise county, east of La
Noria.
This same gang has been one of the
terrors of Sonora for years. 1t is be-
lieved they are the men who held Up
an express train at Aqua Sarca, Magda-
lena, a two years ago, in which the con-
ductor was killed and big haul of cash
secured.
This is the same gang which held up
the Chinese merchant Yu Gang at La
Noris q month ago, securing $500.
The leader Pancho Rivera, is said to
hail originally from Greaterville.

The Worlds Fair.

That is, its judgments are pretty gene
rally just. No doubt it has formed
many incorrect conclusions from the
time the cargvels of Columbus appeared
off the shores of San Salvador to the
present year of celebration, but there
are instances of its fairness which can
be cited unquestioned. 1t has, after
comparative tests, given Its award to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters for efficacy
in cases of malarial, rheumatic and
kidney disorder, dyspepsia, liver COM
plant, constipation, nervousness and
dIbllity. Among positive facts without
any doubt" this verdict deserves pro-
minent place. The experience of a
generation iustifies, and the concurrent
testimony of hosts of eminent physicians,
bear out It's truth. Give the Bitters a
fair trial and verify it.

CONSIDERABLE interest attached to
the election of mayor in the city OF
Indianapolis. The democratic papers
made great fuss two years ago, and four
years, that the democrats had carried
"Rarrison's home city" This time how
ever, the republicans scooped the cleo
ton clean as q whistle. Congressman
Bynum went from Washington and
plead with the faithful, but the party
had given them stones for bread, and
they more than reversed the democratic
msjorities of the past four years.

THE Geary registration law is nc
good and John" is to be given a second
deal at the box. If such action on the
part of this great democratic administra-
ton isn't daisy we don't know what
is. Would the whites, our own Ameri-
can citizens, be given such opportunity i?
not much. Congress passed law re-
quiring certain Chinese residents in
this country to register. But instead of
obeying the behests of the law they
spent their time and money in fighting
the congressional act before the supreme
court of the United States. To the
disgust of the Chinese and the national
the law was pronounced
constitutional, but Its enforcement was
denied by those high in authority, and
practically it stood dead letter on the
statute books of the country. A bill
was then introduced and pushed through
both houses of congress, extending the
time OF registration for six months
What a farce and a mockery such
legislation seemsi

CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-Says Records
Washington special: Carlisle informed
Brice this morning that the president
had put his foot down and will send
IN no more appointments except pos
sibly in a few cases of extreme urgency,
till after the senate acts on the silver
bill
IN THE SENATE.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-At the open
ing this morning DoIph asked that the
journal be amended to show the
presence of Allen and Kyle on the
sundry calls yesterday as they were
present in the senate. The morning
was taken up in discussing adoption of
the journal
THE BLOODY SHIRT.
The bloody shirt waved for time
this morning when the bill removing
the necessity for affirmative proof of
loyalty of pensioners of the war
previous to the civil war was called
up. The bill finally passed; So did
Cox's banking bill.
/ WASHINGTON, Oct. 16. - The word
sent along the line of the silver forces
at 6 o'clock tonight was to filibuster
and require an absolute quorum at all
times. The filibustering was to show
the futility of attempting further to
force unusual hours.
A visit was made to Secretary Carl
isle by Senator Voorhees, this MORN
ing. The two gentlemen exchanged
views upon the situation and Carlisle
urged Voorhees, to hold firm and keep
his forces in line.
1t was Immediately after this visit
that Voorhees, repaired to the capitol
and announced his intention of asking
the senate to sit until 10 o'clock at
night.
Appearances would justify the state
meDt that the administration has taken
another occasion to announce and en-
phasize its opposition to any deviation
from the course originally mapped out
and its determination to exhaust all it's
resources before accepting compro-
mise.
Both radical democrats and republi-
cans of the repeal senators asserted
positively that compromise propo-
sition would never secured vote suffic-
lent to insure its adoption.
Senator Sherman was asked tonight
by a representative of the Associated
Press what he thought of the prospect
for the repeal bill
Sherman replied that it all depended
upon the democratic side. "We." said
he referring to the repeal republicans,
"are quiescent. They do not seem to
realize they are in the majority and
that the responsibility for legislation
rests with them"
PARIS, Oct. 17.-This is gala day at
the French capital. People were
crowding the streets at early dawn
ldecked in holiday attire. Thorough
fares are festooned with the colors of
Russia and France. A hundred
thousand people were in front of the
military club when the Russian officers
arrived from Toulon. As the Russians
appeared in carriages French enthusi-
asm was worked up to such a pitch
that the Russians looked alarmed at the
cheering masses burst military line.
Admiral Avellan made q response to
welcome, closing with compliments to
France and Frenchmen.

SECRETARY MORTON says we have
reached the limit of arabic and pro-
ductive farm areas. Does any body
believe the chief of the department of
agriculture? We don't at least. One
wonders what game he is playing in
decrying agricultural possibilities, in
sneering at western development, IN
preparing material for foreign and pes
simistic criticism OF the United States.
Outside of Alaska the superficial area of
the United States is ,922, 121 ,747 acres.
or this great area only 206, 100000 acres
are used in the five staple crops-corn,
wheat, oats, hay and cotton Census,
1901 Does any one for a moment
believe that there are about 100000
acres of land within the limits of the
United States that have no arabic pro-
ductiveness? TO state this shows the
utter folly of such statement. The
Indian territory and Oklahoma alone
embrace 44,074,72O acres, of which
three-ifths at least will raise wheat,
corn and oats, in great abundance.
That is at least 26,0O0,0OO acres.
Texas has today at least 100000 acres
adapted to the staple crops, wholly IN
occupied. Elsewhere on the great
plains snd:esst of the foothills, outside |
the sections already named, there is
certainly 100000 more such acres. In
eastern Oregon and Washington, north
srn Idaho and California, there are So
10000 arabic acres, that may be
brought under staple cultivation at less
ost and with more producriVeness than
similar section of the acreage now
egarded as the limit Of the southern
tstes not over one-fifth has been
brought under cultivation. Elsewhere
he ratio is not much greater. Estimat-
ng the present cultivated area for all [
rops at 25O,OOO,OO0 acres, we venture

The alleged investigation Of the New

a very bad investment for Secretary
Carlisle and the rest of the sdministra-
ton. The SO called commissioners, ex-
Secretary Falrchild, ex-Congresman
Dunn, of Arkansas and New York po-
litician are each drawing salary of $50
a day in addition to liberal allowance
for expenses, and the whole business is
eating up the "fraud fund" of the

absolutely nothing that will ever benefit

They Give Thei Reasons.

Perhaps some of our readers would
like to know in what respect Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is better than any
other. We will tell you. When this
Remedy is taken as soon as cold has
been contracted, and before it has be-
come settled in the system, it will
counteract the effect of the cold and
greatly lessen it's severity, and it is the
only remedy that will do this. 1t acts
in perfect harmony with nature and aids
nature IN relieving the lungs, opening
the secretions, lquefying the mucus the
lungs and restoring the system to
strong and healthy condition. No
other remedy in the market possesses
these remarkable properties. No other
will cure cold SO quickly. For sale

IT required democratic caucus de-
cree to get the bill for the repeal of
all laws providing for federal supervi-

it is not believed that any known power
can get the bill through the senate in
its present condition. Democratic sena-
tors are reported to have declared the
bill to be entirely too sweeping and
to have intimated their willingness to
see the bill very much modified before
it passes the senate. There is rumor,
too, that Mr.. Cleveland will veto the
