CHAIRMAN anANr rLors
And the Lily white Republicans Are
Now Rejoicing

The Lily Whites OF Dallas county
are rejoicing over the action OF Chair
man John Grant. of Sherman, who has
written Arch Cochran OF Farmers
Branch that he viii be n delegate 10 the
Houston convention OF Lilly Whites
from Grnyeon county. They say this
Is n great victory for their faction.
Grant, who is chairman OF the black
and tan. at Austin. fought the negro
supremacy and was one OF Cuncy's
worst antagonists. notwithstanding the
fact that Quincy claims TO have POI
litIcally created" the handsome North
Texan, at Dallas two years ago
The Lily Whites say Grant has al
ways been one Of them, believing In re-
form, but hung on to the black and
tan outfit a little longer than the
others.
Grant is warm supporter OF Nc
Kinley for president.

The west Is not only rich in the precious

of American manufactures
Agriculture must increase correspond

plain of the east. nor will the east treat
the west. 1t has heretofore, as a depen-
dency; and instead of the east and the west
growing farther apart, 1 believe they will
be closer in their relations than they are
now or ever have been. The west Is loyal
to the interests of the whole country
Without manufactures the western repub-
great zeal the theory of protection 10
American industries Their interest in the
coast defenses has not been less than that
of those who live on the seaboard. The de-
mand for navy commensurate In strength
with our national greatness and national
danger has found its strongest advocates
among the representatives of the states
that could not be disturbed by a hostile
force by land or sea.
The American spirit is strong in the
west. An insult to our flag would be re-
sented by the people of the west as 1t would
In no other part of the country. They
would not inquire what it would cost or
how 1t would affect trade or commerce
There never will be two republics made out

A WOMAN'S ARM.
Weil-hnOwn sculptor Describes I,
ms the Perfect One Should Re-

"eiI-hnoWn Sculptor Describes 1t
ms the Perfect One Should Re.
From the Boston Post.
Il find great difficulty in getting a model
with good arms" said well-known sculp-
tor recently. 1T Is astonishing how very
lew women have arms tina. conform to the
standard. perfect arm measured from
the armpit TO the wrist joint should be
twice the length of the head. The upper
part of the arm should be large. full and
Well rounded. The forearm must not lie
too fiat not nearly SO fiat as a mans, for
example. A dimple at the elbow adds
beauty to a weli-proportioned arm.
From a well-molded shoulder the whole
arm should taper in long, graceful curves
to symmetrical and rounded wrist 1t is
better to have an arm that farmonIzes
even II the parts do not follow the gen.
orally accepted lines. For instance a full
round upper arm which is Joined to q fiat
or thin forearm has a very bad effect. II
Is only degree worse, however. than a
graceful, well-molded forearm tackled On
to thin, Scrawny upper arm
Correctness of form is not the only thing
necessary for good arm The owner
must possess the power of EXPIRE sson in
her arms. AS a general thing American
women are deficient in this. Those ma
tfonalities which show the most express
sion In their arms are the Spanish
French and Italians. The warmest admirer
OF Sarah Bernhard would not claim that
say that the divine Sarah ever appears
ungainly in consequence. Much more lies
in the faculty Of arm expression than Is
generally supposed.

THE INDIAN IN CONFINEMENT.
Prison Life Almost Certainly Fatal
lO Sioux.

From the Sioux Falls Is. d. Argus-I.cadur.
AT the meeting of the Sioux Valley Medi-
cal Association DIR. $. Olney of this city
read most interesting. not to say start
ling paper, on the effect of confinement on
the Indian. The Argus-Leader had been
told the same facts by Col. J. II. Burns Of
Deadwood, but was inclined TO take the
colonies statements with a grain or two
of salt. the colonel is an enthusiastic
champion of the Indian. The figures Of
Dr. olney, however, are even more start
ling than the statements made by Judge
Burns.
There are confined in the penltentiary
123 white men, some of whom have been
there fer years OF this number but two
are sick. OF the nineteen Indians VINO
have been confined in the penitentiary in
the last two Years three are dead one
was pardoned in dying condition and Is
now barely alive five are in the hospital
with the death mark on them and three
are III. OF the seven which are practically
healthy, five have been confined but one
month, one nine months and two for two
years. All of these Indians appeared 10
be sound when they We're admitted 20 the
pen.tentiary.
The statement of Judge Burns TO Judsa
Riner AT the last eIm OF the federal cpuyr
mere that short sentence Of !nlpriSon-
menf was to the Indian in effct a death
sentence seems to be literally true and
there is in this paper Of DR. Oiney an an
peal to federal judges which ought 10
have its weight

Inc Beauties and the possibilities OF

From the laundry wagon to the halls of
Congress: and credit to the man that mazda
the running
Martin Quinn. driver for a steam laun-
dry Of Portland, through a split in the re-
publican party. which could not but mean
ruin and defeat, leaps from the obscurity
OF an Sll week job, handling soiied linen
to the proud emineEce of representing tha
state or Oregon at the capital of the ma
uoii, and be IL known that Mr. Quinn
despite his humble occupation, will in no
way bring discredit upon the state. SO far
as intelligence and ability to express him
SELF Is concerned. In fact, his election NAV
be almost attributed to the splendid show
ing made by him On the platform during
the late campaign in the brilliancy of his
speeches. Men who were not populists
listened to his sllvery oratory, and in sheer
sympathy for the man and his boundkss
ambition cast their votes for him As n
result the laundry wagon driver goes to
Congress in precedence Of men learned
and experienced in the needs of the nation.
Truly 1t may be said that the knock or
fortune at Martin Quinn's door went not
Unheeded.
Providing, of course. that the claim OF
the Mitchell republicans is not subs:au-
tlatec that Ellis comes 10 Multnomah coun-
~ with 500 majority, which will be suffi-
Gent to elect him. From what source the
Mitcheilites gather their information is not
known, bat to counteract ii is the state
nent OF the populists that instead of losin,
their man, Quinn, viii gain votes in the
country.
