IT is claimed that tho books carried as
second-class mail matter entail a loss
upon the government. Well suppose
that to be true, could the government
lose money for better purpose? True
the low postage results in giving some
b 'oks a wide circulation which should
never have been printed at all, but be-
cause there are some men prominent in
society who ought to be in prison is no
reason why all men should be shut out
of society; neither does the existence of
books justify the exclusion of the good
ones from the benefits Of cheap postage.

THE OLD GENERALS SCHEME.

Effective as an Indian Exterminator, but
I Too Merciless to Try.
"a good many years ago the Co.
manohe Indians used to harry and an.
noy the people of Texas by predatory
inoursions, pretty much, I fancy, as the
Scottish highlanders did their brethren
who dwelt in less mountainous regions, %
said Colonel ALT Mason Of the Lone
Star State. ''The Comanches, too, had
exactly the same purpose in view that
animated the adherents Of Rob Roy
the lifting Of cattle-and it would be
hard to say which made the greatest
success Of the business, the sturdy free
hooters Of Scotia Or the copper hued
denizens of the American plains. The
Texans Of course resented to the ut
most this conduct Of the redskins, and
many a brave paid the death penalty
for trying to get away with horses or
COWS that did not belong to him.
MANY poor settler, too, in trying to
save his little homestead, fell a victim
to the barbarous foe. Some unusually
cruel raids, in which number Of white
women and little children were butch
cred, about the year 1859, in William
son county, not far from the state CAPT.
tai, caused the resentment Of the people
to rise to a boiling pitch, and vengeance
was sworn against the whole tribe of
marauding red demons. The affair was
SO ruthless in its atrocity that it came
very near being the cause of whole
sale slaughter Of the Indians, which
could have scarcely been justified
"The proposition came from one Of
the noted frontiersmen and Indian
fighters Of that day, who has long since
crossed over the river, General Hender-
son. The old man advanced it coolly
and could with difficulty be persuaded
to abandon it, twas to invite, under
the guise Of pretended friendship and
reconciliation, all the Comanches that
could be assembled in great scope of
surrounding country to big barbecue,
where there was to be eating and drink
ing galore and a general smoking Of the
pipe Of peace. 1t was to be a grand
feast, especially in the roast beef part
of the menu, said beef to be artistically
dressed with poison enough to kill every
son Of a gun Of an Indian that partool
of it. Well, they wouldn't let the old
general carry out his scheme, and he
got very hot over it and to the day Of
his death cursed the sentimental fools
that interfered with his plans for reduo-
ing the Comanche census. ''--Washing-
ton Post

We Explain.

In another column will be found a
comm unioation from Richard Bowman
: 10 which he takes exception to state
ments made in TIE HERALD Of the Oath
nit, which statements he asks us to e1-
plain to a ."mistified public" BY the
tone Of his communication Mr.. bowman
would have US believe that he does not
rightly I'm aerstand just who CONSTITUTES
the gang referred to. For the edifioation
0: Mr.. Dowman-he is the only man in
',hs county who does not understand the
Stu ation-we rise to explain that by the
term "gang" We did not refer to all the
men who now hold Office nor to the Re-
publican party of Cook county as a
whole, but simply to the ring that man
.ipulates the Republican party, and IN
whose interests the business OF the coun-
'ty has been run for many years. AS Mr.,
Bowman says. clearing in mind the
.sparce population of the county, repre-
ssnted by some $50 votes, and everything
else in proportion the disclosures made
are certainly staggering" and the fact
that we stand ready to prove every as
'sertion made makes it all the more stag
gering. Does Mr.. bowman presume to
assert that during his administration as
chairman of the board of county commits
sioners the affairs of the county were
conducted with the slightest view to
either jurtice or economy. Is it justice
to spend one third of the county's road
fund on piece of road leading from
Grand Marais to what is known as the
Mayhem farm, distance of three and
one-half miles? Is it economy to pay
$50 month to G. J. johnson for SER
vices that J. A. Tucker offered to per
form without compensation? During
Mr.. Dowman's administration $1440 have
been paid out for those services which is
at tho least calculation $1,000 in excess
ofwhat would have secured far better
'tervices than those received.
AS was plain to be seen, in our state
ment that the law had been openly defed
ETC., We referred to the shameful meth
ods rescrted to in the recent election by
members of this ring to further their
ends. .'"~:

Once a painter notorious for plagia-

which every figure Of Importance was
copied from some other artist, so that
very little remained to himself. It was
shown to Michael Angelo by friend,
