him (Walker), or that the seat be declared
vacant on account of the gross frauds prae.
ticed in the Ninth District.
1t will be remembered that General
Walker did not take great deal Of testi-
mony, and what was taken was TO show
that fraudulent ballots had been used in
most of the counties of the district with
the connivAnce of Rhea and his friends.
In fact, it was understood at the time that
proof had been made that Rhea, James A.
Stone and Smith, OF Scott county, had held
conference for constructing form for
the ballot, and that forms had been sent
to many, perhaps nearly all, of the couh-
ties of the district.
We are of the opinion that General
Walker has filed in the record one OF the
official "Scott county ballot" and the OH
cial ballots used in most of the counties.
His purpose vas to have Congress settle
the question whether such outrageous
methods as the "Scott county ballots can
be lawfully used in a national election,
The contest did not die with General
Walker and the Republican organizations
of the Ninth District and of the State OF
Virginia ought to see that the matter is
brought properly before Elections Com
mittee No. 8. This is too impo; tant a
matter to go by default. The Committee
and the House of Representatives ought to
be required to pass upon these ballots II
they are declared fraudulent, then w. f.
Rhea will be deprived of his seat. If they
are held to be lawful ballots, then the Re-
publican party in the Ninth District and
Virginia might as well disband
The seating of Rhea in the first contest
produced the ''Scott county ballot" and if
it is tolerated byNCongress twill extend
an invitation for grosser frauds.

A Wise SuppositiOn.

This bright particular youngster has a
patriarchial wisdom concerning the things
of this life, although he occasionally per-
mts himself an inquiry into something
not quite clear to him. One evening he
was sitting with Aunt Mary and Aunt Luz
cretia. Conversation had turned to the
subject of unmarried women, and the
youngster listened intentIy. In a pause in
the talk he looked up and asked:-
"What are maiden ladies2"
Aunt Mary replied
"1hey are ladies who meyer get mar

The youngsters brow contracted, and
Aunt Mary added, to make things clearer:
"They are like Aunt Lucretia and me,

a shrewd, clear reasoner, whose name

pie Quaker gentleman, whose name
has come to stand for organized saw
agery. Charles Lynch was man
whose services to his country as
brave pioneer and righteous judge, as
a soldier and statesman, are by no
means deserving of oblivion, still less
of obloquy. 1t seems, indeed, one OF
the iniquities of fate that his name
should now be universally applied to
proceedings that no one would con-
denim more heartily than he. The
records of the court of Bedford coun.
ty, in Virginia, and those of various
Quaker meetings, the journals of the
Virginia house of burgesses and of
the first constitutional convention,
taken together with family documents
and traditions, show him to have been
an upright and useful member of So

Our Public Lands.
Harper's Weekly.

harper S weekly
The title to over 60 per cent of the area
of seventeen Western States still lies in
the Government, and is subject to entry
and settlement under the land laws; and
the great Commonwealth of Texas, owning
its own lands, also opens wide its doors to
the home-seeker. This statement is true,
but after all, misleading, for those who
occupy the remaining 40 per cent. of the
area of these seventeen States are so for
tilted in their holdings by climatic condi-
tions, by obsolete and unjust laws, by lack
of restrictions as to their power, and by
the apparent unwillingness of Congress to
disturb illegitimately acquired rights, that
they now control the other 90 per cent.
of the area almost as if they had title to
the same. BY owning the land about the
water-supply, and by the few combining
against the many, the use of the public
domain is divided up among those who
have purchased or have appropriated the
most favorably situated acres. Theoretlc-
ally, all of the 6OO,000,000 acres of land
are open to settlement. Practically, there
are not 100000 acres today upon which
a settler of limited means could file an
original claim under the present land laws
with the intention of permanently estab.
fishing himself and bis family and not
starve to death or be driven from his pre-.

Chean RniIroad Fare.

India is the land of cheap railway
travelling. The returns of the East
India railway show that in IL months
1S,5OO,OO0 passengers used the line and
that of these 100000 travelled third
or lowest class. The cost of carrying
was one-eighteenth of penny per
mile, and the charge to the passen-
gers was a little more than one
farthing. Great as is the difference
between the cost of transit by this line
and parliamentary or even workmen's
rates, the comparison between in
comes of the lowest class of passen-
gers in India and Great Britain is still
greater. The average monthly income
of the former in shillings corresponds
with the number of pounds earned by
the latter in a like period.

Missouri River Leaking.

New York Press.
Civil engineers and river men who have
been watching the course of the Missouri
River for some time, endeavoring to ac-
count for the extremely low stage of water,
believe that some subterranean waste Of
the waters that we're formerly drained by
the Missouri River is gradually lesseniDg
the volume of water. What was once a
mighty stream is gradually dwindling until
now the river is 30 low that it has much
the appearance in places of a sluggish creek
with only narrow stream of water be-
tween its banks. 1t has been suggested
that the opening Of artesian wells through
the Dakotas and the great combined flow
of these wells is the cause of the lessened
volume of water in the river.
