THE STRIP.

Al last the Peel bill providing for
the opening Of tho Cherokee Strip has
passed the United States senate and it
is probable that within few days the
bill will be ready to present 10 the
president for his signature. The bill
has been sent to the conference COM
mitiee, aud Senators Plat, Pettigrew
aud Jones have been appointed senate
confcrrees. Everything will move
smoothly and steadily on now and the
boomers will not have much longer 10
wait until they can enter the promised
land. They have waited along time
and it is right that they should be re.
wartled. The opening Of the Chero-
kec Strip will be one more step toward
opening the entire Indian territory to
settlement and statehood, which should
be done.
Ii has been said that the opening Of
the Cherokee Strip would result in in
Jury TO Kansas in that great number
of Kansas people would go there.
That is just what is wanted. Those
people who will go from Kansas to
the Strip are people who would not
stay in Kansas-did not come here TO
stay-but came here to be on hand
when the Strip is opened so that they
could rush in aud secure cheap homes.
When they are gone there will be an
other influx of people from the East
ern and Northern states, and they will
stay here. They will make subslan-
tial improvements and help add to the
material growth of our glorious (but
at the present time revolutionary
state. Kansas people should be glad
to see the Strip opened to settlement
and they will he.

THE LEGISLATIVE MIDDLE.

The legislature has been in session
twenty-six days, over half Of the time
prescribed by law, aud 80 far nothing
has been done. II is believed thut the
wrangle will continue the entire fifty
DAYS, or the whole session, after which
the supreme court will decide which
is the legal house-the republican or
the populist. After that is settled an
extra session will probably he called,
when we can reasonably expect some
needed legislation unless the senate

srArE HISTORICAL sOcIETY.

1t is to he hoped that the Legislature
this session will provide room IN che

Historical Society. 1t is a matter in
which every part of the state is inter-
ested. The materials of the history oil
the whole state are being saved in this
library. 1t is the most remarkable IL
brary in the country, in that itis pre-
serving the regular issues Of all the
newspapers published in Kansas, and
has been for seventeen years past. OF

library ITO volumes of newspapers OF
years from 1876 to 1893. = In all, the
library contains 9, 054 volumes Of Kan
sas newspapers. These have been the
free gift TO tho state by publishers
They who gave them can reasonably
demand that they be cared for. These
files alone are worth more 10 the peO-

Society has ever COST the state. But

per files, but books, pamphlets, manu-
scripts, pictures and Dumberless his

No appropriations have been made
by the Kansas Legislature, and in the

Pathetic Story 81 u Mountaineer who Was

Pathetic story OF Mountatneer VINO was
Condemned to Die.
II hear a good many stories," remarked
the veteran to the old soldier club, "about
heroic deeds and things like that that took
place in war times, especially about soldiers
that would rather be killed than tell lie,
or something of that sort, and they most
ly remind me of one that happened down In
Virginia. A private in one OF the Virginia
regiments had got into some kind OF a
scrape, ! don't remember just what, but
something serious, because he was going
to be shot for it. They gave him week Of
grace, and after the sentence he asked the
general in command II he couldn't 20 home
and see his wife and babies that lived about
% miles away In the mountains Says he
to the general;
"'Ther amt nothin in the world. gineral,
but Sary and the babies fer me now sence
I've done this thing, an Pm willin to die,
but want to go and see them ez II wuz
on u furlough and tell 'em that Pm goin on
scout acrost the river, an Jest came to
let EN- know that mightn't ever come
back ag'in an say goodby to 'em. Sary sets
heap of store by me, an she tells the boys
that they must grow up to be good men like
ther daddy is. 1t 'ud break Sary's heart ef
she knowed what wuz goin to happen to

home an make it all right with Sary an the

"Well, the general had mercy, and he
told the soldier he could go and he'd trust
to his honor and besides the whole army
was watching him. So the soldier left
camp on parole and went to his home, and
on the last day of the week, in the morning
bright and early of the day he was to be
shot
by gravy" interrupted the corporal on
the soapbox, "he came back, and of course
the general didn't let man like that be
put to deathi"
The veteran looked at the corporal severe
ly for the interruption.
"As l. was saying" he resumed, ION the
last day of the week, in the morning bright
and early Of the day he was to be shot, he
didn't come back, nor the next day, nor the
