If Jupiter PluviuS only wreathes
his face with such a broad smile
that little water will come about
the first of next week on the Plains
and Randall county particularly,
the revelation that will be shown
visitors to the reunion in the way
of beautiful county will be some
thing akin to marvellous. Even if the
old fellow persists in froWning and
keeping his face Wreathed in an UNI
ending exhibition OF Indifference be-
tween now and that time this coun-
try viii not be ashamed of its gay
raiment OF early spring. The en-
tire Plains country is covered with
4 rich green verdure refreshing to
the eye and suggestive of peace
and plenty. From i season of
dearth and calamity the country
has emerged into the glad sunshine
OF a plcntiouS prosperity. Nature
is a wise old dame, after all.

of the Roman republic, Macau-
lay said;
"Then none was for a party:
Then all were for the State;
Then the great men help d the poor,
And the poor men lov'd the great;
Then lands were fairly portioned;
Then spoils were fairly sold;
The Romans were like brothers,
In the brave days Of old"
Referring to then" and touch
ing on the conditions Of his
day, Cowper gives utterance to
the following:
"But the age of virtuous politics is
past,
And we are deep in that of cold
pretence;
Patriots are grown too shrewd to be
sincere,
And we too wise TO trust them"
While not altogether agreeing
with Cowper on his sentiments
as set forth in the above lines
yet it is true thatto a very great
extent We, like Rome, are turn
ing from a nation Of patriots to
a country OF partisans. Those
familiar with the history of the
Grecian republics and later on
with that of Rome cannot fail
but note the repetition in our
own country of many of the
courses which led to the down
fall Of those ancient common
wealths. 1t was not until those
people became rich and power
full that the political CRATER got
in his deadly work and then fol-
lowed the purchase, for gold, of
legislative bodies; whole
senates and chief magistrates
became an easy prey to corrup-
ton and the boosted liberties of
the masses was no more. Gold
sought to rule in those days; it
succeeded and today, with US in
high places as we'll as low its
pernicious practices are clearly
visible. Millions were spent in
our last National campaign to
secure a man who was "Conser-
ative"-friendly to GOLD.
Seats in our National senate and /
in the House have been bought |
and paid for out of 'slush funds"
and at many times the price at
-ached as compensation to those .
;o-calIed "public servants. "
And it is sheer nonsense to say
hat men who will thus publicly
md shamelessly purchase an
,tlice will MT sell the rights of
he people. But as one Con-

Local ranchmen in discussing
the market situation say that
the Panhandle will not have
the usual amount of stuff to 20
out this year, and that ship
ments to market are going to be
late. Cattle were IN thin COndi-
ton so long as q result Of the
protracted dro-th that some
time yet will be required to get
them in shape for market. The
low prices brought by the half
fat stuff that has been SHIPPED out
already has had the proper etfe ct
in causing let-up in the pro
cedure, which will result in no
further sacrifice of cattle. Grass
is reported growing nicely all
over the range country and cat
tie are taking on Eat rapidly.
There is plenty Of grass aud
water apparently, to carry
everything through in good
shape until fall, when if the ex-
pected fail rains materallze,
stuff will go into the coming
winter in very satisfactory
syle.

Everything points to indications
that the Panhandle's old-time pros
perity is coming again in alIits Wig
or this year. Cattle are almost
sure to 90 higher within the ensu-
ing six or eight months; other kinds
OF stock are selling at good prices,
and crops-this promises TO be re-
cord-breaking crop year.

A Strong Endorsement.

To the voters of Clarendon:-Realiz-
ing that D. Luther Green is compara-
lively unknown outside of Salem, we
think it proper to inform the voters OF
Clarendon that we know him well, and
can commend him as a high-toned gen
tleman. His whole career has been
such that there is not suspicion
against his character. He has modest
retiring disposition: he is a factor in
church work, and an active support to
our public school, and all things else
which look TO the upbuilding OF his
community. He is q business man, a
book-keeper and farmer by professions;
and we believe will, if elected, bring
honor to himself and to his county. We
can assure the people of Clarendon that
Mr.. Green's act will not cause any
humiliation or regret.
