Another attorney has been detained

Iowa on account ofhis absence. Other
attorneys are making a kick and if the
judge wants to keep the prestige he has
on the bar here, he should lose no
time in getting back to Rapid City.

The Republican League Orator.

The Kansas Republican Leagu
has issued the call for the annua
convention which meets April 25th a
Topeka. Congressman Dolliver o
Iowa will be the orator of tho occa
sion As L. {. Little Is a member O
the state executive committee Of thu
League and has been from the first
prominently identified with Its state
and national management the Re,

Dolliver. "Dolliverp" said the con.
sui general, "Dollver is a dandy.
heard him make an after-dinner
speech at q political banquet at Madi-
son Square Garden in New York.
Mckinley spoke, Senators Aldrich,
Hiscock and other great men spoke,
but everybody conceded that Dolli-
ver's was the best Of the evening. OF
course most anyone can make bet.
ter speech than U. s. senator, but
Dolliver really made a magnificent
talk. He was not only logical and
eloquent, he was exceedingly bright
and interesting = sometimes very
witty and humorous. Although
quite young he is one Of the leading
men in congress and is regarded as
the best campaigner in Iowa. He
will surely deliver great oration
and draw a big crowd. The League
officials are to be congratulated on
securing him. He is the best timber
we have ever had from a distance on
such occasions
Abilene should send good delega-
tion. This promises to be an i'm.
portant meeting.

1t might be well for some Of the
Republican papers Of this district who
arc jumping on Congressman Calder
heads financial views to await a def.
mite statement over his signature Of
them and not jump to conclusions
from fake interviews. Perhaps Mr..
Calderhead may not agree with the
majority Of his constituents on the
silver question but 1t is only right
and Just that he shall not be misrep-
resented. He is beginning bis con-
gressional term and is entitled TO a
respectful hearing before judgment is
passed.

That KhartOom Survivor

The Topeka Capital says: "Albert
Suart, Of Cove county, claims to be
the last survivor Of the Gorden
massacre at Khartoom in Lower
Egypt"
There was no survivor Of the Cor
don massacre. Khartoom is not in
Egypt. There was no Gordon massa-
ere in Lower Egypt. There was no
Gordon massacre. With these trifing
exceptions the Capitals item is cor.
rect.
Lower Egypt lies on the Mediter-
ranean coast. Two thousand miles
south, as the Nile runs, is Khartoom
in the Soudan, 1000 miles away from
even Upper Egypt. Mohammed
Achmet, el Mahdi with an army Of
perhaps 100000 men was preparing
to attack Khartoom when Gordon
took charge Of its deienses, finding a
city Of about $4,000 people. His
steamers piled the river and tele-
graph line connected Khartoom with
Cairo. Gordon held the town for
months with wonderful courage and
ability. There were no English SOL
diers and very few English officers in
Khartoom. Realizing that the city
was doomed, Gordon sent the last Of
these down the Nile under Colonel
Stuart. They were surprised and
killed long before Khartoom fell.
Lord Cromer, the English Consul-gen-
eral, discouraged sending Of rein
forcements and Gordon was left to
make his fight without the aid Of even
one Englishman. Khartoom was
taken by assault and Gordon was
slain. The inhabitants joined the
Mahdi, except those slain. There
were no "survivors' to come away
because neither "Albert Suart" nor
any other Englishman was there to
survive.
Two days after Lord Charles Beres-
ford with about 10 Englishmen and
80 Soudanesc black soldiers reached
Khart0om on two steamers, and Inn
mediately turned around and went
back to Egypt. 1t Is an everlasting
disgrace to the English nation that
there were no Englishmen with Char
les George Gordon, either to die with
him or survive him. The English
people would be mighty glad TO learn
that even Albert Stuart, Of Cove
county, Kansas, U. ). A., was around
Khartoom when all other EngIshmen
had left the First Gentleman Of
England to die alone Albert is evi-

Another Boom Rursted.

The various crazes ranging from
wheat to town lots in Kansas have
been nothing " the speculation in
orange raising in Florida. But that
has gone the way Of all booms ant
taken a tumble. Judge N. &. McFar.
land Of Topeka writes thusly from
st. Augustine; The concensus Of
opinion, as Judge Guthrie would say,
is that orange trees six years old and
younger are killed; or to put il
strong, are killed dead. The older
are all badly injured and it will take
further development to show whether
they are destroyed. This condition
exists in all parts Of the state except
the extreme southern part, where but
few oranges are grown. The calamity
is great. 1t is not only the loss OF
the crop, but II is the loss of sisyears'
of labor and expended capital. Mr..
Stetson, the Philadelphia hat maker
who built beautiful hotel at Deland
and who lives there, has in his vicin-
ity 700 acres Of orange trees. But
for the freeze he would probably have
shipped 100000 boxes; now he will
not ship one, and his groves are
worthless, or nearly so. Mr. Stetson
can survive the LOSS, but there are
many orange growers that can not.
Millions will be sunk in the orange
craze
