The staid old city OF Boston, or the
inhabitants thereof, have done good
many queer things which are usually
overlooked by magnanimouS people,
but the passing Of a resolution favor
ing the admission OF Chinese into this
country at public meeting recently
held in that city is not calculated to
endear the Bostonian to the average
WeSterner. The fact that the So-called
anti-impcrialiStic sentiment had its
beginning in Boston need no longer lie
a source Of surprise. The bean eaters
are evidently Of the opinion that this
country is getting too progressive.
No wonder the democrats rolled up a
big majority at the recent election
held in that city.

Israin-Food Nonsense.

The Iinhorn GAMBLERS Must Go.

A a regular meeting OF the town
council held Wednesday evening, a
large number Of small bills were al
lowed and ordered paid, and some
other routine business WAS transacted.
The matter Of repairing the old
bridge across Sand creek, SO that it
can be used by pedestrians, was taken
up and resulted ii Marshal Baker
being instructed to confer with ollic-
ials of the lIumbild Lumber Compa-
ny with view to aSccrtainng how
soon the work Of repairing can be
done by them. \ resolution was also
passed instructing Marshal Baker to
Immediately notify all who are en-
gagged running brace games, or
gambling devices for percentage. to
Immediately remove their paraphcr-
MALTA and leave town, and in case any
do not obey this order forthwith they
are to hc prosecuted under the vag-
rdncy law and the state laW against
gambling. 1t is understood tLat
Mars hal Baker has already complied
with these instructions and 40 trouble
is anticipated from that sGarce. An
effort to reduce the license fee for
travelling theatricals from s.. 90 to 81. 0e

Former Well Known Populist Judge Gives
His Reasons for Changing His Politics.

Whitman county. Washington. TO
which Office he was elect ed as Il pOpu-
list, but who now resides near ORC

populjSl party and joined the republl-
cans He gives Il written statement
OF his reasons as follows:
"Whcn entered the pOpulist party

organization should be surrendered to
the democrats. as was the greenback
party. then would affiliate with the
republicans.

wing Of the democratic party is aga n
to assume the leadership of the So
called reform forces, and the populist
party is to be turned over to the
democratic party, decline to atlill-
ate with the combination. The his

act its platforms into laws. | have
been unable to agree with that party
as to it's policy at all times, but when
it makes il promise you can rely upon
it, while the track Of the democratic
party is streWn with dead issues and
broken promises. | still believe in the
principles Of popullsm, but there is
no hope that any reform can be ne
