LIZ TmEM EARN TaEiR

- AhEA an LhElh FEAhns
The United States should have no lead
era by inheritance. There Is no blood
royal In America, and the insistanee OF
some Of the sons OF great generals and
famous statesmen Of the times of the
civil war that they should be preferred in
the organization Of the volunteer army
is nothing short Of a disgusting exhibi-
tion Of amazing impudenee which should
be condemned by all and suppressed by
the president.
Fred. Grant applied for a commission
as brigadier general and got q eolonelcy
In the volunteer army. Webb Hayes has
been appointed an ''acting" major OF
Ohio cavalry. Alan Arthur has got moth
ing rs yet, but is still ~besieging the
White House. John A. Logan has raised
all kinds OF a rumpus Ia Illinois because
Gov. Tanner refused 10 make him a
colonel Of cavalry over the heads OF dis
tinguished officers Of the National Guard,
and there ID a chance that his insistance
and the log-rOlling Of his mother at
Washington may yet succeed In securing
what he wants.
And the worst OF IL is that none OF
these sons Of their fathers" have seen
any service, have any military education
or any special capabilities that would
place them in positions Of authority.
They seem determined TO make the
great names once reyered throughout the
greater portion OF the United States a
stencil In the nOstrils OF the whole
people.

CoIIere AthIetIcn.

A distinguished writer in a pamphlet
published by the intercollegiate Athletic
Association, says that an Immense im-
proyement In the moral and physical
status OF college graduates has taken
place since the Introduction OF athletic

why brain aud Drawn" should be an
tagonistic. In support OF this last propo-
alton the action OF that genial inyigO-
rant. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which

The Good People Of Silver City Honor

The members OF Troop ID, First United

says the Independent. The present was
taken to Santa Fe by Louis Bishop, with
a note expressing the sentiment that the

highly appreciate the thoughtfulness OF
the ladies OF Silver City.
THEY APPRECIATE THE GIFT.
Capt. Fleming received on Saturday

The supreme court Of Indiana held, In
the case OF The Island Coal Company W..
Greenwood, that a coal miner who works
in a series OF rooms or chambers from
which coal Ia constantly taken, and which
are only visited by the mine boss every
alternate day, has better means Of know
ing the changing condition aud dangers
OF his place OF work than his employer
has. and necessarily assumes such danger
from falling coal as could not be discOy-
cred by reasonable inspection, and that
while 1t is made the duty Of every mine
boss to see that the working place is prop
erly secured by props, the mine owner is
not thereby required to prop the roof
when reasonable tests have shown IL 10
