X SUGGESTION

Gillian county should make !
effort to secure q part Of the big
tide Of emigration that is rolling
westward this spring. Probably
in no other section Of the United
States IS there so large body of
6rst-class agricultural land lying
vacant as here and if the thou
sands Of homeseekers who are
coming this way but knew Of it,
every quarter section would be
taken within the next six months.
II would we'll repay those Of US
who are here to make an effort to
attract the right class Of settlers
and if the people would only CO.
operate a little in the matter the
cost would be trifiing Some print
ed matter descriptive Of the re-
sources of our county, distributed
on the next homeseekers' excur-
sion train that comes this way,
by some live man who could meet
and get acquainted with the new
comers, could not fail to be pro
dactive ofgreat good and the GLOBE
hopes to see our people take hold
Of the matter and see that some
thing is done.
There should be no misrepre
seatation Of the country but
plain, lucid statement of the condi-
tions as they are. The county
does not need q food Of laboring
men without capital, but rather a
class of thrifty, industrious families
who have sufficient capital to hold
down homestead until they can
raise q crop.
A thickly settled country means
better schools, better social ad-
vantages, more wheat to sell and
more money with which to buy
goods from our merchants. This
is made as a suggestion and we
hope to see it acted upon.

TVS IS TOUGH.

A Washington volunteer at Ma
Mia writes to the Seattle Times,
under date Of February 18th, as
follows:
''Native women and children in
our neighborhood and beyond, as
well as old men and sick, are
absolutely starving to death. Their
husbands and fathers have been
killed, wounded, captured or driven
back to Malolos, their houses burn
ed to the ground, with all their
earthly possessions, and they are
left with no means of subsistence.
They attempt to come into the
American lines by thousands, but
have to be turned back. We can
not feed them.n
It makes all the difference in the
world whose OK does the goring.
Two years ago, when the Spanish
forces were trying to starve the
Cubans into subjection, the Ameri-
can people held up their hands in
holy horror at such barbar GUS
spectacle, and hastened to send
tons Of food and clothing and thou
sands Of dollars in coin to alleviate
the sufferings Of persecuted peo-
pie. Since engaging in the war
for humanity business, however,
and especially since drifting from
that into q war for conquest, the
temper Of the people has changed
and we can now view with com
placency scenes that l8 or 20
months ago would have made our
blood boil with indignation. Then,
it was an act Of Spanish cruelty
and barbarity. Now, it is an act
Of American valor. What will the
end be2

S. p. Haney is at work on the tele-
phone line which he is constructing
between here and Gooseberry, and it is
only a matter OF a few days until that
portion OF the country will be in tele-
phone connection with us. Telephones
will be put in, using the barb wire fence
for line, at James and c. A. Rhea's
farmhouses, the post Offices at Goose
berry and Eightmile-or at farmhouse
quite near the latter PLACER. X.
Sampson and A. t. Kings farmhonses.
F. NJ. Courier and E. |. Dorman are
deslrous OF having line established
from their places here and it is quite
probable the same will be done. Mr..
Haney has under consideration the
matter of putting 10 poles from Condor
to Gooseberry, and then utilizing the
barb wire line on in to lone for the
present, and this plan will be suggested
in the matter of the telephone connec-
tion with Condor. n.-Ione Herald.

The refinement of cruelty as
distilled by the slow process of the
law in melting out justice to crimi-
nails is seen in the case of Claude
Branton, the Lane county murderer,
The execution Of this criminal is
long over due. Both justice and
humanity are violated in keeping
a human being upon a mental
strain by delaying the execution Of
penalty until mind and body are
wrecked. The safety of society de-
mands that cold blooded murder
ers should, upon proper conviction,
be executed; the good name Of
civilization requires that execution
should follow conviction promptly.

"Obeyv Numbered Antonio.
Like one in dream I bent over the
dead man, on whose pale face, glazed
/ eyes and relaxed jaw the bright moon
| light was shining, and in my ex-
element and bewilderment I nearly
slipped and fell into the pool of blood
which flowed from his death wound.
1 had never touched corpse before
and an irrepressible shudder ran
through all my veins. But, that emo
ton once over, could have handled
dozen with perhaps Indifference; and
there are few who, after touching the
dead, have not experienced this change
of feeling.
Ned Carlton, with a sound like sob
in his honest breast-a sob of mingled
rage and miseration-raised the
yet warm body; I took the feet, and
through one Of the quarter-boards,
which was open, we launched it into
the great deep, and as the brig flew
on, rolling before the early morning
wind, there remained no trace of poor
Will White, but his blood, dark pool
upon the deck, and the crew stood
staring at it and at each other with
blank irresolution, horror and dismay
expressed in all their faces.
Empty-handed and defenseless as
we all were, each was afraid to speak
or act, lest he might be the next vic
tim whom the merciless Cubano would
shoot down.
With a growl of defiance Antonio
now turned away, and, brandishing
the revolver in token Of the obedience
he meant to exact, he descended slow
1y into the cabin, where we soon heard
him mashing open the lockers, and
busy with the case-bottles in the stew
ards locker, or Billy the cabin boys
pantry.
His departure seemed a relief to all,
but in half minute after he was gone
below little Billy, or Boy Bill" as
he was usually termed, whose sleep
ing place was the steerage, rushed up
the cabin stair in his shirt and ran
among us, sobbing with fear and dis
may.

Pneumatic Jail Is Invente ed.

| From the Philadelphia Record: A
pneumatic safety Jail is the name of a
recent novel application of compressed
air which has been developed and is
about to be placed on the market. The
walls of the vaults or cells are steel
tubes, spaced about four and one-half
inches apart, and the floor and ceiling
Of double steel plates with an air space
between. These tubes and air spaces
are all in communication and are kept
filled with compressed air. In case the
bars are cut in an attempt to escape,
the reduction in the air pressure at
once sounds an automatic alarm at any
desired point The door is also built
up with air tubes, and the lock is also
protected by a hollow hinged bar
swinging across it's face. This must
be removed before the lock can be
gotten at. The tubes contain in their
interior octagonal bars about seven
eighths of an inch in diameter of hard
ened tool steel. These are pivoted at
the ends and readily turn, so that even
II the air pressure were removed the
cell would be as difficult to escape from
as any other now on the market.

unwary.
And so the fated brig glided over the
hot sea, under the blazing sun. The
albatrosses came round us again, with
tripping feet, Tapping wings and open
bills; but no one molested them now
we had other things to think of;
and as I sat on the anchor stock in the
weather bow, watching them floating
in the water, or skimming over it
with their vast wings outspread, I
thought of the Ancient Mariner" and
all that he had suffered for killing 1.-THE
bird of good omen.'
I felt a strange dread creeping over
me while these verses seemed on my
tongue-they were so descriptive of
the atmosphere and of the situation:
Cali in hot and copper sky,
The bloody sun at noon,
Right up above the mast did stand,
No bigger than the moon.
81 closed my lids, and kept them close,
And the balls like pulses beat,
For the sea and sky, and the sea and
sky,
Lay like load on my weary eye,
And the dead were at my feet
