Made Them Understand.

Mr.John G. Brown was put to his wits
end one afternoon of this week, but
proved himself equal to the emergency
and made them understand.
A number of Indian Bucks anxious to
learn something OF the Spanish war
talk approached him and one of them
asked: "what paper he say bout
plight? Maybe so whittier man he
pight?" "Yes," replied Mr.. Brown,
"heap talk'm fight" Then the spokes-
man asked again: "Wbere he ketch'm,
where he plight, you savvy all he talk?"
Mr.. Brown saw that he was in for it.
that the Indians really wanted informa-
tion, and calling his boyhood mapdraw-
ing to his aid he proceeded to draw a
hasty map Of the United States, of the
Atlantic ocean, gulf of Mexico and the
island Of Cuba, and after giving their
location in Idaho proceeded to anchor
our battleships at Key West and along
the Atlantic coast and plant our big
guns at the Dry Tortugas and some or
the coast of Florida. Then by some
little device he put the battleships in
motion, made them sail across the
water, blockade the ports OF Cuba ant
open fire and lombard Moro Castle
The Indians took in the situation
quickly and each one said: "Me savvy
me heap savvy," and then walked ava,
better satisfied than the whites whit

or and glory most and who have most
at stake make the best fighters. To
The NEWS, going to war is by no means
a pleasurable thing to do. Enlisted
men have hard time at best, and it is
only when they share the honor and
glory and have love for their country
that they make good fighting soldiers.
When men talk of a rich mans war
and poor mans fight they will need
watching against desertion. Gen1
Longstreet tells a good story illus
trative of this class of fighters:
He said that during the campaign of
the Wilderness he never had an oppor-
tunity to sleep except as his corps was
passing him. One night he had planted
himself in the angle of fence and list
ened to the conversation of a couple OF
soldiers. One of them said TO the other:
al suppose its all right that we should
march all night and fight by day. OF
course we should do this for love of
country, and / suppose its all right to
be poorly fed for the love of country
and suppose that we should be poorly
clothed as we are for the love of country.
And one should, If necessary, die for
the love of country. I'm willing to.
But there is just one thing that want
to say-that If ever live to get out of
this. I'll be id il ever have another
country"

Lore of Country.

There is nothing In all the talk OF war
with Spain so ridiculous, absurd and
preposterous by half as the suggestion
of many that an army OF Coxeyites,
tramps and weary Willies be organized
to do the fighting. Those who make
such suggestions show an ignorance
OF war as dense as the fogs of London.
What have men lost to honor and re-
spect to fight for? How many OF them
could be trusted on important outposts
Of danger when desertion would save
their lives? How many OF them would

against u fortified position bristling
with cannon and bayonetsp How many
would stand an artillery duello and then
resist an impetuous charge made by
regulars? Talk of an army OF tramps

contingency is rediculously absurd
..Tell them that you saw me, but you
never saw me fight" would be the mes

Almost a Parallel Case.

The district Judge OF Arapahoe coun-
". Colorado, this week handed down
decision in q case Of that county against
the treasurer and bondsmen for county
moneys lost In a defunct bank which in
many respects is parallel to the case OF
Bingham county against w. A. Woodin,
treasurer, and bondsmen.
The Colorado judge held that the
treasurer and bondsmen were not res
ponsible for the moneys lost. In the
decision he took occasion to say that
the county commissioners had been re-
miss in the discharge OF their duties
that as the books Of the treasurer were
at all times open for inspection it was
their duty, from time to time, to exam.
Inc them and satisfy themselves that
the moneys were safe and the accounts
were properly and accurately kept.
Had they been faithful the county
would not have been loser. In the
case OF Bingham county the present
commissioners do not come under the
Colorado judges arraignment for they
had Just entered upon their duties ant
had been given no time for inspection
OF the treasurer's books.

no FEDERAL QUESTION IN IT.

Extract From Justice 7eckham's Opin-
ION in Commission Case.
In the United States Supreme Court
decision of the Railroad Commission case
Mr.. Justice Peckham, in delivering the
opinion of the court. has this to say re-
garding to the Federal question whlch
the Wilson's claimed was involved IN the
case:
Upon the case made by the ulalntiif
in error, the Federal question when
he attempts to raise is so unfounded IN
substance that we are justified i'll say
ing that it does not really exist; that
there is no fair color for claiming tilal
his rights under the Federal CoilSutu-
ton have been violated, either by ue.
priying him of his property without
due process of law or by denying nun
the equal protection of the laws.
in Hamblin VS.. Western Land Com
pany (l47 L. s. SD, it was stated that
a real, and not a fictitious, Federal
question is essential to the jurisdiction
of this court over the judgments OF
State courts. (Millingar vs.. Hartupee'
q Wall. 25S; New Orleans VS.. New
Orleans Water Works Co, 142 L. ;. ~,
80 In the latter case it was said that
the bare avcrment of II Federal question
is not in al cases sufficient. 1t must
not be wholly without foundation.
There must be at least color or ground
for such averment, otherwise a Federal
question might be set up in almost any
case, and the jurisdiction Of this court
invoked simply for the purposes OF de-
lay
I'VE think this case falls within the
principle thus stated"

APPEALS FROM COMMISSION.
They Must Go Through the Superior
Courts in All Cases.

They Must Go Through the Superior
Courts in All Cases.
The Supreme Court has recently hand
ed down decision that will very mate
rally change the practice in regard to
appeals from Railrad Commission de-
cisons.
Heretofore, under section % of the act
establishing the Commission, an appeal
in which no exception is made to the
facts as found by the commissioners has
been taken direct to the Supreme Court.
Recently, however, the point has been
raised pate VS.. Wilmington and Weldon
Railroad Company that this was irreg-
Mar aud illegal: that the Superior Court
having been created by the Constitution,
the Legislature could not abolish ii
either in whole or in part by giving to
other, courts original jurisdiction exclu-
siye of or concurrent with it.
The opinion, written by Judge Clark,
sustains this view, and it affects ap-
peals not only from the Railroad Com.
mission. but from Criminals courts as
well. The Superior Court. it says, was
created as the head of the court system
below the Supreme Court, and from ii
alone appeals lie to the higher court
While the General Assembly may allot
and distribute the original jurisdiction
hitherto belonging to the Superior Court
it could not deprive that court of It's
heac,ship of the court system below the
Supreme Court.
If the Railroad Commission shall adj
here to the ruling made in this case
the appeal will lie in the first instance Il
the Superior Court, and thence the party
east has his appeal if he so elect, TO tht
Supreme Court. g

.Some Populists," he added, 'are so

there was cooperation between the
Democrats and Populists they would
snlit off and work still with the Republ-

ty than by coming out into the open for

in Republican or close counties. The
rest of the party is for silver, and most
of them are sick of deals with gold

During the session Of the Populist FIX

were gathered in room in the Var
