a SONG OF THE OLD PIONEERS.

There's hero adore
Full as much or even more
Than the heroes Of whose fame we often hear
He is bent and old and gray
And he hasn't long to stay,
He is known as the old pioneer.
It was in the days of old,
In the early days Of gold.
Now vanished ah many year.
When they came in wagon trains
Der the wild and painless plains
That first came the old pioneer.
There are few that fully know
How he fought the savage foe
And bow many loved ones lie beneath the plain
Till the trumpet rends the skies
And all the dead arise
There can ne'er be truly numbered all the slain
Yet not in vain the quest
For they won for US the west
To the broad Pacifcs breaker beaten shore,
Where the red men used TO roam
There is many happy home
While the years are ever adding more and more
But gone are the ways
OF the early golden days
And gone are the red men and the deer;
Aye gone from hill and plain
Never to return again
AS when first came the old pioneer
Their ranks are growing thinner
| And their hair has turned TO gray
We miss them from their places every year.
And the few that God has left us
Hayn very long TO stay
Soon farewell to the old pioneer.
They are drifting, drifting, drifting
Unto the silent land
And toll and grief have turned their hair to gray
Till they seem as il but waiting
To hear the great command:
Come weary ones and put your cares away;
Come ye heroes OF the west,
Come and enter into rest,
No longer mid your labors need you stay,
Your race on earth is run
And your work is nobly done.
Come up higher TO the brighter better day"
Let us not forget TO love them
And to praise them when we may
And to hold their deeds in memory ever dear.
When the grave has closed above them
1t will be too late to say
All the loving words of sympathy and cheer.
Hail the broken hero band
OF the early western land.
For all their trials none may ever tell
Bid them still a hearty cheer
While yet they linger here
For soon comes the last farewell
Aye let ii ne'er be said
When these heroes all are dead
That they unsung. unhonorod fought and fell;
Give now your lovo and cheers
To the fading pioneers
For soon comes the last farewell

CITIZENS TICKET.

FOlltlcally speaking, InlngS
are pretty badly mixed up in
Custer county this campaign in
county or local affairs, but on the
State tickets, the Democracy
will win in the county by at least
300 majority, as the new Citizens
ticket will in no way prove detri-
mental to the State Democratic
party.
Reports are very encouraging
for the success OF the entire
Citizens ticket. There may be
some who are ignorant why such
a party entered the political con-
test. But there is just canse for
such action. 1t is a protest of d
wronged people against the ac-
ton of the majority of the Board
of County Commissioners of this
county holding Office by virtue
of the suffrage of the people. 1t
is a protest against the tax equali
zation of the county whereby
such a mine as the Ramshorn,
worth million dollars, and 9th
er valuable mines of the county
are only compelled to pay in tax
es this year 1920. Was such a
wrong ever before fastened upon
the taxpayers OF any county ?
We say not
The Democrat candidates
more particularly say the new
ticket will disrupt the Democrat
ic party and elect the Republican
ticket in Custer county, and they
call the new ticket all manner of
harsh names. But who is the
cause of this new ticket ? 1t is
the Democratic party itself. 1t
was led and ruled by Ravenel
Macbeth, who dictated the party
; of the county, and who viii meet
a Waterloo on Nov. 4th. and
probably defeat his entire ticket
But the politicians of thu Demo
: cratic party tied to him because
he gave them glowing promises
and nominations. but the people
were not satisfied with the man
ner in which the Mackay con-
vention was run and consequent
! IL new Democratic party has
: entered the arena, known as the
Citizens, who have decided that
the Democracy of Custer county
ought to be of more Importance
and greater than Macbeth. The
d Citizens party asked that Mr.
Macbeth be turned down, and the
p Democratic party might name
any Democrat they cared to for
n State Senator. Would they do
d it I? No 4. They had no regard
L for the wishes of the majority of
: the people. Senator Macbeth
! would not stand aside for the
st welfare of the party and for the
5 cause of harmony. but has jeop-
le ardized the whole Democra'
) party in the county just to re
it ceive nomination.
III This is a free country, and on
Nv person has just as much right L
aspire for an Office another. bu
there are some enominated on tn
C. Macbeth ticket who do not ap
). pear to think so. They say tha
ch party principle is at stake. bu

Receiver Asked for N. g. Railway

New Orleans, La, Oct 4.-The most i'm
portant development in the New Orleans
street car strike today was the filing of
petition in the civil district court for
the appointment of a receiver for the
railway company on the grounds of gross
mismanagement by the officers. Charles
A. Favrol and l.. A. Livaudais are the
stockholders and bondholders who filed
the application. They allege that he Off
GERS have neglected and made no effort to
run cars, causing loss to the company
of many thousand dollars a day and thus
jeopardizing the payment of interest on
bonds. Judge st. Paul fixed the hearing
for next Tuesday The railway officials
state that the filing of this petition will
prove beneficial to their interests mas
much as it will bring the present contro-
versy to a discussion.
Tonight Mayor Capdevielle is endeav-
oring to arrange a settlement on basis
of ten hours and 81 per day.
The railway company is making every
preparation in systematic way for the
operation of their cars, although nothing
but mail cars were run.

tee about forty eight former PopuIists
and mossy-back Republicans met in the
court house here, with two "Independ-
ents," w. H. Marlborough. of Loufsburg,
and T. T. Hicks, of Henderson, and about
100 negroes.
Mr. Hicks first took the floor and spent
about one hour trying to get himself TO-
gether and explain how it was that Cy
Watson did him up" so badly. He then
spoke in terms of compliment of the
Democratic ticket and accepted it as a
standard that they should try to reach
He then introduced his brother "Inde-
pendent and newly converted Rep. from
Louisburg.
Mr.. Marlborough took something over
an hour explaining 10 the one hundred
negroes and the forty-eight Republicans
Populists and one independent (Mr.
Hicks) what a great man he was, for
refusing TO be dominated by a political
machine. He did his best to justify him
self and make the crowd think it was
honorable for him to enter a Democratic
convention and work for a nomination,
and as soon as he was defeated turn
traitor to his friends and his party.
At the close of the speaking the chair
man left his seat and went down to get
his orders from Boss Jack Garrett. At
ter talking with Garrett a few minutes,
he resumed his seat and called the con-
vention to order.
Then Hicks made motion and Garrett
seconded it. Then Garrett made motion
and Hicks seconded 1t. Hicks talked to
Garrett and Garrett talked to Hicks
few minutes, then a vote was taken and
JAS H. Ball was nominated for the Leg
islature and w. H. Smith was nominated
for sheriff.
Then Hicks made another motion and
Garrett seconded it and it was ordered
that they were not to put candidates for
the other offices but would make the
fight for these two offices.
Then, on motion of Garrett seconded
by Hicks, John d. Cooper and man
named Watkins were appointed a commit
tee to confer with committee for War
rem and put up candidate for the Sen
ate.
Watkins above referred to was seen
after the convention and denied being
there. Another leader among them was
heard to say that the whole affair was
"bursted" and he would have nothing'to
do with them.
