The Democrats of Indiana are
very ignorant men; they have de-
clared the silver question to be a
State issue and will support no
man for State office who is not a
believer in silver. What igno-
rance! Why any child in Louisi-
ana knows that the silver question
belongs exclusively to the domain
of national politics"
But the State adopted a free sill
yer platform and sent a delegation
of free silver men tie Chicago.
The effort to have Cleveland in
dorsed was rejected with Kisses.

Texas has followed suit, instruc-

of The Progress was presented at
the convention declaring Silver
Dick to be its choice, and that
great State was willing to indorse
what The Progress said.
The resolutions of the Empire
State of the South are also patri-
otto and encouraging and are the
offspring of that grand old states
man, John H. Reagan.
We favor the free and unlim-
tied coinage of both gold and sill

discrimination against either and
at a ratio of Is to l, independent
of the action of any other nation,
which standard money should be

mand that the money of the coun-

demand that the practice OF the

of the Matabele god described n
swift swoop toward the wall of
the cave. In doing this he half
turned his back. Was it assegai,
gun or spear? Burnham did not
know. He did not stop to guess.
His rifle pitched like lightning to
his shoulder and the darkness
was lanoed with flame.
Then M'limo, the Matabele god,
threw his arms aloft, and with
never groan fell prone upon his
face dead. Echoes which had
slept for centuries were wakened
from their hoary lairs and went
rioting and believing abroad in
the hills. Out of the cavern pell-
nell came the two men, scramb-
ling wildly for the bnse Of the
hill where their horses were tied.
Armstrong, making short
detour, set fire to the big kraal,
which coutaiued about 200 huts.
In the meantime Burnhsm had
secured the horses and led them
to Armstrong The Matabele
had been aroused by the rifle
shot, but as yet they bad been
unable to locate it. The smoke
Of the burning village gave them
a rallying point. They came
swarmi out like bees from
hive. The air was filed with the
shouts of men, the screams of
women and the cracking of the
dry and burning grass.
Already the fugitives had been
perceived by the Matabele, who
were trying to cut them off from
the river. Away went the horses
like greyhounds in the race that
was to turn the scale of life or
death. They rounded tho fankers
of the enemy and stretched away
for the river.
Some time afterward two very
tired horses and two more than
tired men staggered and splashed
across the drift" and tnrned
their noses for Mangwe. Away
back to the north thick black
smoke was rolling over the Ma
toppo hills like funeral pail.
The morning after the return
of the two men from their peri
lous expedition Captain Van
Rooyen, noted hunter and
trader, induced an lnduna named
Sanguluba to visit the M'limo's
cave and let him know what was
there.
This man returned few days
later and said that he had entered
the cave.
Did you lind a god" asked
Van Rooyen.
No" replied Sanguluba, 81

ears Gas eaten away. he was

The successor to the late god,
M'limo, who was killed in Mata-
beleland by the Texas cowboy,
Burnham, is woman. She has
already acquired great influence
with the natives and has insti-
gated many murders Of whites.
The Government will offer
large reward her capture.
