THE government will on Thurs
day, next, open another lot Of In
dian lands in the Territory for
homestead entry. and another grand
rush will take place to secure
homes by a lot of men who have
been dcluded into the belief that
the whole tract is desirable land.
A few will doubtless secure good
quarter sections. but The majority
of them will meet with disappoint-
mcnt. There is little in this newly
opened territory that is inviting to
the settler aside from the idea that
he is getting his land cheap. The
country is much like that Of west
crn Kansas and Nebraska. subject
to long drouths and subsequent
crop failures, which can only bring
hardships and privation upon the
settlers. and Il succession of such
trials soon discourayes the farmer,
and to such an extent that he
abandons his land and the result,
of his years OF toll. The exodus
from Kansas, Nebraska and the
DaNotas within the past year has
proven this to be fact.
Southeast Missouri holds out
to the homcSccker more real and
permanent advantages than any
other section Of Uncle Sans do
main. While there is little or no
land left for homestead entry. good
farming land can still he had at
reasonable prices, though there is
at present an upward tendency in
values, owing. no doubt, to the in
crcasing demand for such lands.
The diversity of crops that can
be raised in this section is alon.
sufficient inducemcut for settlers te
come and locate here; and if h.
makes Il failure in one line ne s,.t-
ceeds in another. Total crop fail
urcs are unhcard of. and aban
dOned farms are never seen. Il
any man wants to settle where h.
can farm successfully: where b,
always has Il near and ready mar
ket for his produce: where the sup
ply of water and fuel are never
failing: where winters are onl,
about three months duration: wher,
he can rear his family amid the re
timing influences Of schools an<
churches, the let him come Il

WEBSTER defines the word "con-
stituent' as follows: a term ap-
piled to those who appoint Or elect
some one Us their representative to
an Office Or employment" As the
Republicans had nothing to do with
the election Of Senator Goody-
koontz his constituency is com.
posed of Democrats solely, and
who are now sorry they conferred
upon the Senator the honor Of rep
rcsenting them. We trust this

Mr.. EDITOR:
The records of the House Of
Representatives Of the 3>th Gcncr-
al Assembly show that the repre-
sentative from Washington County
east hi; vote against the removal OF
tie Capitol to ScdaIia; and, Mr..
Editor, any one seeing Jefferson
CITY as we now sec it. would not
question the so;mdnc,s of his iudy-
mcnt in the matter. The Capital
grounds and the city itself, viewed
from the Capital. is simply superb.
Enchantmcnt could scarcely lend
anything to the view. ''Wcrc the
vote taken today" said DR.. Petit
john, a friend of >cdalia, lit would
certainly 90 the other way.
Our most extraordinary session.

his party friends and the men who
made him great in the eyes of the

THE extra session met a
month ago and about all it has ac-
complished thus far is to give Gov

that we have heard all about the
Governor and his methods, the

small a man to waste $500 a day

IT will he remembered that the
hard times did 10, begin until after
the Democrats cam" into power.
and since then they have been busy
trying to tini oist why this WAS
thus; and Ike a doctor VINO has
dicovcrcd that he ha< made wrong
diagnosis of a case, Try it again,
and each time different remedy i
applied. First it was the silver
purchasing clause ot the Sherman
law, which Wa repealed, but with
out effect. Mex. ii was the tariff
and now il i the free coinage
question. Af:er these repeated
failure, we must naturally come to
the conclusion that it is nothing
but Democracy after all that all>
the country, and that Il dose of Re
publicanism would affect a speedy
cure.

pie of this city do not seem disposed
to take advantage of the opportunities
offered by the natural gas, which has
been piped in from the Lake Shore
fields al a great expense and is being
supplied through the system of the
Salt Lake and Ogden Gas and Electric
Light company. At least the great
majority of them do not, and in con-
sequence the returns from the gas
system are not at all satisfactory.
There is not enough of the gas being
consumed. The system is always filed
TO overlooking, and, as matter OF
fact, the company does not know what
to do with the flow. There are now
four wells attached to the head line
OF the system and experts say that the
flow from one of these four is sufficient
to supply the entire demand of this
city at the present time. Just what is
the reason for this lack of desire is
what the arrangements of the electric
light company and the American Ma
tural Gas company are endeavoring
to ascertain. 1t certainly is not lack
Of opportunity, for the former COM
pany is extending its mains all over
the city and the service is excellent.
BY means of contrivance placed in
the gas works of the company, just
sufficient of the artificial product to
give the natural gas an odor of its
own is thrown into the mains and this
removes all fears from the lack of
odor.
During the past week several ex-
tensions of gas mains have been COM
pleted by the company and others are
to be made at once. The east side
of the city has received a great deal
of attention and now the field forces
are to change to the west side. Elk
tensions are made by the company to
every district where the residents
give evidence that the patronage will
be at least reasonable. Those consum-
ers who have made use of the ma
tural gas are extremely we'll pleased
with the results. 1t IS not at all I'M
likely that in the event of a continual
ton of the present policy of non-con-
sumption adopted by the people of
this city that a change will be made
by the company and the gas sold to
the heavy fuel consumers, including
manufacturers.

company is making very creditable
exhibit of the wares turned out by

is operating on full time and full

shown are the famous Bee Hive,
Electric tar, CASTLE and the finest of

fact that some time ago the agents
there manifested their willingness to

these same agents are now writing
business at cut rates-that is, what
