We, somehow, have got the i'm pres
sion that the war OF the rebellion has
been over many years since, and we
often wonder why Mrs. Jefferson Davis
aud her daughter Winnie cannot re-
ignize that fact aud cease making a
show OF themselves every few months.

A WOULD-BE LEADER.

The joy Of the Indianapolis boilers at
the SUCCESS Of their bolt, as demonstrate.
ed in the defeat OF the democratic and
the triumph Of tue republican party,
has turned their heads little. When
they cool down and realize their real
position it will strike even their large
minds that treason to a party can
hardly be considered a valid claim TO it's
leadership. The gold democrats had a
indeieasible right as citizens to vote as
they choose, but as they chose to vote
with the republicans they are no longer
democrats. They have taken their
place with tho republican party, and
they should be content TO stay with

The friends Of U. S. Bateman, repre-
sentative elect from this district, are
anxious to see him chosen speaker OF
the house in the next general assembly.
His knowledge Of parliamentary law,
coupled with genial and kindly dispos-

Then MIR. Bateman was elected by the
largest majority given any democrat. for

tribute to the banner district to make
it's representative the speaker, something

The selection of Mr.. Bateman to the
position named, would be compliment,
not only to a capable and worthy gen
tleman, but would be highly appreciated
by the reliably democratic district OF

RECIPROCITY.

II would be only fair II the United
States should prohibit the importation
ot adultera.ed wines from Germany as
an offset to the exclusion from that
country OF American meat pro
ducts on the plea that such
exclusion is necessary to tho health OF
the people OF Germany. The exclusion
Of German wines from the United States
would teach the government OF Germany
a lesson that IL would remember long
time. The injustice Of excluding Amer.
lean meat products would then soon be.
como apparent TO the German public.

In all the discussions relative to the

PRESS DISPATCH.

Separ, N. NJ, Nov, 20.-Deputy U. S.
Marshal MaGlinchy has had a fight
with Black Jacks bandits, killing the
notorious Bob Hayes and wounding
George Musgrave, alias jeff Davis, who
escaped. None Of the posse are injur-
ed. Black Jack, Frank Anderson, Bill
George and another escaped and the
posse is in pursuit. Deputy Marshal
Ezekiels, with posse of SIX men and
four Apache trailers are pushing in
from this side.
The fight occurred at Deer Creek,
about thirty miles south of SepHr, off
the Southern Pacific road. This is the
most desperate gang that ever infested
Arizona. They commenced operations
in July last, since which time they
have held up Separ twice, the Viii e
Oaks stage, robbing the mail four times;
Nogales bank, lewiston postoilice, San
Simon postoflice, station and store;
Stein'e station, Central postoflice, at
tempted to hold up a train on the At.
antic & Pacific road, in which their
leader, Cole Young, was killed. They
also took in Huachuca siding station on
the 7th, robbing the agent, the object
being to intercept the paymaster

they went over to Wilcox whero they
planned to rob the U, s. paymaster on
the 18th, on his way to Fort Grant, but
missed the date again. They were
making for Chihuahua when interrupt
ed by McGinchy.
Daring the past three months they
have twice tried to hold up the South
ern Pacific mail train, but failed. Dur.
ing their reign OF terror they killed
four men-Robinson, line rider, who.
with a posse, pursued them after the
attempted bank robbery at Nogales;
Parker, ranchman, near Roswell \,
: NJ, and rancher and a cowboy in the
Animas valley.
George Muegrave is supposed to be
the man who. with George Wheeler
blew up the mail and express car near
Wilcox three years ago. Since last July
the bandits have Travelled 5000 miles.

ALTERNATIVE OF THE DUEL
There Was No Escape in Former Timee
Except Through Dishonor.


Among archaic things in this coun.
try we have come at last, happily, TO
class "the duello," as il was once proud
to he called, 1.-THE field of honor" "the
code of honor" the satisfaction usual
among gentlemen" and other such
phrases have become practically obso-
lete, and whereas formerly il would
have been very astonishing thing il
gentleman failed to send his friend"
with a challenge TO any other gentle
man who had insulted him. the aston
ishing thing now would be for such
challenge to be sent under any circum-
stances, although it must be said, in
honest truth, that the duel itself ICON
sidered apart from its code) was much
less objectionable than are many of the
n odes of violence that have succeeded
1t. So much may he conceded with
out in any degree lessening the just
condemnation of dueling as "a relic of
barbarous chivalry.
II was 1.-The code" which really gave
the duel its specially malefic character.
As long as this memorable law prevailed
every gentleman was under bonds of
honor TO resent to the death any inn
parchment. however slight, of his
truth. honesty or courage. A few ex-
emFtions were allowed. il is true. but
on the whole not to recognize the code,
when occasion rose under il, was TO be
BANNED as a coward. Reversing the
maxim of the civil code the duello mag
nified trifles to wrongs that could be
expiated only in blood. II was not al
lowed to treat such things with indif-
ference or contempt. and any attempt
to pursue that course toward an equal
in social, political OF professional life,
il il did not at once conclude the mat
ter fatally against the person under
taking it. only shifted the mortal in
itiative to the other party. There was
no alternative where il was so sternly
commanded TO fight or be dishonored.
Even men like Clay had to obey the
despotic rule and beneath IL such men
as Hamilton bad to fail.-Lippincott's.
