On his death bed: Others make undue
haste in seeking Office inst as soon as
| they hear of change in administra-
tion, - said prominent republican this
morning. ''El 'Paso is infested with
some of these kind of republicans al
| present. To these the following resC-
lutions, passed by the republicans of
New Orleans, will apply well at the
| present time. | wond ike to add thai
| r"body need wear the shoe unless 1t
fits:
| Whereas, We congratulate the
| country on the fact that the fourth day
Of March next will usher into place
and power a republican administration
with our chosen standard-b7arer,H Hon
| VIM. Mckinley, as chief executive,
| and
Whereas, Until such happy begiu-
ming we believe it to be unwise, i'm
practicable, selfish, inoppOrtune ana
| against the JUS interests of the party
70 start any agitation looking to per
| sonal preferment for political office,
| and
| "Whereas, The state committee at its
last meeting by d, cided expression OF
| opinions, refused TO sanction any such
! movement, it being already charged
| that the republican party in Louisiana
| 5 only interested in the spO.ls of office.
| md the republicans of no other state IL
| the Union have deemed it wise to start
| such d movement, and
! "Whereas, The president has not yet
even completed tins lection of his
| cabinet, therefore
| 'Resolved, Tnat it is the sense of the

The tramp question is one that l.
| nard to solve" solilCquized the jailor
| 1t the city lock up this morning.
| since the tramp season begun there
| mas been about 500 of them locked up
| uere. Out of that number some Were
ODD and some were bad, but it is
hard matter to pick the wheat from
| ,ne chaff There is one tramp in there
| row who has been run in about six
times and he fights the officers every
| lime they arrest him. About Two
| weeks ago he was taken SIN miles
down tie road and turned loose, bui
| Yesterday he returned again
Or ght as ever and succeeded IN get
| iug himself run in. y NUM- Der oil
| these tramDS live on the men that
work on the railroads and they keep
| Norkiugmen broke as we'll as them
| Ives so that when the latter lose d
| Job thy are on the hog train too.
| This is apiece Of political economy that
5 hard to study out and it Is too much
| for me to master"
