A TRIBUNE reporter called on some of
our business men and in answer to our
interrogafive "What do yon think about
Cleveland vetoing the seigniorage
bill ?" received the following replies:
r. d. GALLowAY.-About as l ex-
pected.
II. STAcY.-He was hired to do that
by the gold bugs.
DR.. J. f. HARBERT.-I am disappoint-
ed. The people wanted that to become
q law and Cleveland should have signed
it.
JoHN II. RAMSEY cleveland is not
much better than Republican, bnt l

gress will not pass it over the presi-
dents veto.

ocrat party.
A. NJ, WEBB. cleveland knows bet
ter what we want than do, but it
seems to me he should have signed the
bill. Wall Street dicts ted the whole
thing.
G. B. GRIM--I told vou so. l don't
object to seeing the Democratic party
90 to pieces SO much as do to see our
country going to ruin.
W. c. RUssELL.-I think he did eX-
actly right. but his reasons are not
what mine woud be. For that to be-
come law would prev ent further legis-
lation on the silver que stion.
w. A. BUTT. He has committed a
great wrong. He has gone contrary 20
the platform upon which he was elect

me, yet had but little hopes that he

with what he has always advocated.

SElGAIORAGE BILL Vetoed.
PRESIDENT CLEVELAND RETURNS TIE
SILVER BILL WITHOUT HIS hpPCvAL.
The Measure Loosely Drawn Given as ,hs aesson-
Opinions of Some of Our Business Men.

WASHINGTON, March 20 The Presl-
dent to-day sent to the House Of Rep
feSentatlVes message vetoing the
Bland silver seigniorage bill. He said,
in part:
''To the House of Representatives I
return without my approval House bill
No 1896 entitled 'an act directing the
coinage of silver bullion held in the
treasury and for other purposes" NV
strong desire to avoid disagreement
with those in both houses of congress-
who nave supported this bill would
lead me to approve it if / believed the
public good would not be thereby en-
dangered, and such action on nv part
would be proper discharge Of official
duty. lnasmuch, however, as | am un-
able to satisfy myself the proposed leg
islation is either wise or opportune nv
conception of the obligations and re-
sponslbilities attached to the great Of
flee hold forbids the indulgence of my
personal desire and inpxorablv confines
ME to that course, which is dictated bv
my reason and judgement, and pointed
out by sincere purpose to protect and
promote the general interests of our
people"
The President then at length reviews
the repeal of the Sherman act. The
President puts it Oh the ground the bill
was loosely drawn, and would rob us of
our gold. He says he believes the COIN
ing Of the bullion seignorage might be
| safely and adyantageonsy done. pro-
vided authority was given the secretary
of the treasury to issue bonds at a low
rate Oh interest. He expresses a hope
for comprehensive adjustment of our
! monetary affairs in short time in a
way to accord silver It's proper place in
our currency.

MAY, 27th, 1888.

At regular stated meeting of said
lodge held at the hall; ;thereof at Usage,
Carroll county, Ark, the following pro-
ceedings were had:
Harrison II Copeland member of
said lodge being put on trial for vlolat-
Ing his obligations as a Master Mason
and the law by taking the life of Broth
er Thomas w. FaEcher, who was a
member, and Treasurer of said lodge at
the time he was fatally stabbed and cut
with a knife by said Harrison IL. Cope
land at Usage, Carroll county, Arkan-
sas on the 9th day of August, 1892,
while Brother Eancher was appealing
to him as a Mason at the time, for
peace and mercy.
Notice Of said trial having been given
for the time, and in the manner reqnlr-
ed by Masonic law, and after the lodge
had heard all the evidence, the sad
Harrison H. Copeland was, bv vote
of said lodge, expelled from the rights
and privileges of Free Masonry through
out the world, where ever he may trav-
ell or cast his lot, and the craft is here
by notified of his expulsion, and the
secretary of this lodge is directed to
publish him as an expelled Mason IN
the county papers and in The Masonic

tice in the newspapers, or because be
was Mason, Odd Fellow, Democrat,
Republican or G.. A. r., or who might
be influenced, biased or prejudiced in
any way, on account thereof. Had
the Jury been selected in this unpred-
indeed, impartial manner by the offi-
GERS who selected the jury who did try
and sentence Copeland for only one
year in the penitentiary, the result
would have been verdict for murder
in the second degree, at least. and a
sentence Of 5 to 81 years in the peniten-
tiarv as the proof clearly warranted in
my opinion,
On the evening of August 9th, 1892,
at Usage, this county, Thomas W..
Fapcher. was fatally stabbed and cut
with knife by Harrison Copeland,
from which he died three days thereaf-
ter, and James and Kenner Fancher
were stabbed in the arm by Copeland.
That Thomas w. Fancher was killed
without provocation or cause on his
part no one who knows the facts and
are not biased or prejudiced doubts. III
know that he was a good man and a
good citizen and 10 one desired to have
the law administered more than he,
and, no doubt, he lost his life while APP
pealing for peace in his most sensible
and merciful manner. There can be
no excuse or paliation for taxing the
life Of human being except it should
be done in actual self defense. (Which
rarely occurs SO as to Justify the kill
ing) and though the man or-person who
commits such crime may be acquitted or
partially punished through ignorance,
prejudice or corruption. The full de-
gree of the crime will remain upon
him forever. The blood of his victim
will follow him to his grave, reminding
him continually that he has robbed q
human being, his fellow man, Of his
life-something that he can never give
back Like Cain who killed his broth
er Abe., mark is placed upon him and
he is banished vengeance is mine
and will repay" thus sayeth the
Lord. May God have mercy on him.

WHAT the ROAD WILL OPEN
IN ARKANSAS AND PUT WITHIN EAsYAccEss
OF THE MARKETS or THE COUNTRY.
It's Now Sure Thina-Work VIII Begin Between
Little Rock and Springfield in Thirty days.

LITTLE Rock, March 3l.-In answer
to letter from Mr. L. NJ. Martin, vice
president of the new North & South
road, Gov. Fishback has written the
following letter in which he mentions
the many resources of the counties
through which the road will pass:
In the county of Pulaski are our ia
nous beauxire deposits, our granite
qnarries, the kellogg lead mines, and
no small amount of timber. It's aeri-
culture products are chiefly cotton,
though it is well adapted to a munici-
pality Of agricultural and horticultural
crops.
In Faulkner county there is more
timber and also several coal deposits,
which, for want Of transportation IA
cllities, have no been developed except
for local purposes. The agricultural
products are similar to those of Pu-
laski.
In Van Buren and Cleburn are the
same characteristics, with a still larger
supply of timber. In Searcy are mag
nifcant forests Of timber, mainly hard
wood. It also has immense deposits of
lead, zine, copper, and marble, and is
in the apple belt. Its agricultural pro-
ducts are grass, grain, and cotton.
Stock raising is also flourishing indus
try here.
Marion county has the finest zinc de-
posits yet discovered in the world. Its
products took first premium at the
Worlds Fair at Chicago, and they are
so located as that zinc can be mined at
cost of from 25 to 33 per cent less
than that at which the Missouri mines
are worked, and the ore itself sells. de-
miles from railroad, for from 81 to $6
more per ton than the ores Of Missouri
delivered on cars, as one Of the experts
of Mineral Point, Wis, who deals in
both has admitted It is thought by
we'll informed men that when this zlnc
field is we'll developed the Missouri
mines Will close down. This county
has also vast beds of white aud varl-
gated marbles. It is also a timhered
county and in the apple belt. Stock
raising is its chief agricultural industry
at present.
What has been said Of Marion, may
be said of Carroll and Boone counties,
except the two latter have larger areas
adapted to tillage, and not quite such
large deposits Of mineral.
These SIX last named counties are all
mountainous and have large areas
which are adapted only to timber and
fruit of every species indigenous to the
temperate zone, and to ranges for cat
tie. Sheep improve both in quality
and quantity Of fleece when brought
there from the north. They are all
we'll watered and have churches and
schools in every neig ghborhood, although
as yet they are sparsely settled. In any
of these counties there is to industry
and energy the possibility of ideal
homes. The climate is unexcelled on
the American continent. According to
the last census the population was as
follows, compared with the census Of
1880:
1880. 1880. Increase.

WHATEVER apathy may have exis.
ted among the Democrats of Worcester,
and whatever information they may
have required as to the position of our
standard bearers-Messrs. Miles and
Henry-in the late tariff fight, all
must have been dispelled by their
speeches in this county which have
abounded in unequivocal denunciation
of protection, and unquestionable com
mendation of Grover Cleveland and
his freer trade ideas. Both gentlemen
pledged themselves in unmistakable
language to continue the fight for tar
iff reform along the line which Presi-
dent Cleveland has defined. Their
speeches abounded in eloquence, and
logic. The result in this county is
only question of how much majority
these gentlemen will get. We promise

the settlement and progress Of any
new country to allow proper time
for inspection of the land to be
opened and allow the right to enter
the land to be sold upon long time
and easy terms to those who really
want homes there rather than to
require them to select upon the
run without examination,
This plan would practically set
tie in advance of the allowance of
the entry all questions of the right
to enter, as well as questions OF
frauds and collusion, and the set
tier upon his new home would enjoy
a sense Of security from speculative
contestants that but few settlers in
old Oklahoma now enjoy. While
the registering booth system adopt
ed for the opening of the outletwas
some protection for honest settlers
it did not prevent fraud and was
not satisfactory to the settlers,
who were compelled to remain in
line for days in dust and wind while
the "sooners,' having registered,
secreted themselves on the inside,
and as usual at such openings got
all the choice lands and lots, 1t
