The question is do we want to do away with our herd law and try free-range? Some think we should while others think we should not. Which side is in the majority? At the last election on this subject free range was badly snowed under, but there is no question but that many people have changed their minds since then. The editor of the Coldwater Enterprise gives 100 reasons why he is not a populist.

He could have boiled the list down to one, which would have expressed fuily as much as his 100 reasons. Something like this would imply all. "We are one of John Sherman's brood of cuckoos." Kiowa Review. Thank you, Jasper, for the compliment. We are proud to be classed as a friend of so eminent a statesman and grand man as John Sherman.

He knows more in a minute than any izen pop statesmen knew, knows or will know in a life time. We haven't just exactly agreed with Sherman on finance of late but believe he knows more about it than we do or the editor of the Review does.

W. Davis, Kiowa County's representatiye in the last "war" legislature, was in town the fore part of the week on legal business. He came down to replevin the Yalkman cattle which G. W. Yickers had attached, and to get other cattle of Yalkman's, which he (Davis) has a $500 mortgage upon.

Sheriff Taylor and Joe Mclntire went out to Yalkman's farm to get the cattle but returned empty handed, and learned that Yalkman had driven the stock to Mullenville to ship from that point east. Immediately upon receiving this information Mr. Davis left post-haste for Greensburg and will follow the stock and regain them if possible. This office acknowledges a pleasant call from Mr. Davis, who gave us an interesting account of his troubles with Yalkman, and says he is laying for the fellows whom he firmly believes got him into Yalkman's cell on purpose to get him pounded or killed.

lanta and were in camp near the city, a rumor got into camp that all of the Indiana troops were going home to vote. It was in the fall of Lincoln's second election. We bad not been in camp long wbea we got marching orders and thought sure ve were going home to Tote. We marched back: over the railroad, over the same ground that we fought the rebels from Chattanooga to Atlanta. Every traiu we saw we spotted as the one on which we were to ing of the 2Dd day's march we heard something in front of us that sounded awful natural.

We came to the con clusion that some of us stood a good chance to go to our long home to vote. Old Hood had played and about faced the rebel army and started back for Nashville over the same ground they had fought and retreated over from Chattanooga to Atlanta. Part of Hood's army had left the railroad and gone by the way of Lost Mountain, and our corns was ordered to follow them to the mountain and if we didn't overtake them to come back to the railroad We started at day break; our supply train was detained from some cause, and we had had nothing to eat since the day before. W7e marched until noon and camped where the rebs had camped thenight before. We picked up grains of corn, where the rebs had fed their mules the night before, and parched it.

Soon the bugle sounded to fall in and we were on the march again We marched until 3 clock, when we halted in front of a large plantation where there were some cribs full of corn. When we broke ranks we broke for those cribs, and piled into them about four deep and of all the cursing you ever heard that beat it. Some el low would yell "get off of me you you're smotherin me;" another would say "you're breaking my neck," and so on. They kept swarming in and out of the cribs like bees in a hive as long as there was an ear of corn left. I got about a dozen ears.

I got one of my bunk mates to watch the corn while I took the coffee not and canteens ana went down into the woods in search water. I went about 300 yards and came to a small open field; "Holy Moses" it was a sweet potato patch ul of nice big sweet potatoes. I hopped over the fence and commenced "digging taters on the share," but I had not more than got my share until there was a soldier to every hill, and the old man's share was pretty slim. I found no water all about it when I found the "taters." We had proceeded as far as we were ordered to go, and started back to the railroad. Some of us had raw potatoes and corn to eat tnat day while others had nothing.

WTe ot back to the railroad sometime in the night, and great ceaser how we did draw sow-belly hard-tack and beef to eat with our po tatoes. The next morning we pushed on after the main part of Hood's army, which was making for Snake Gap a gap'm the mountains through which; they expected to pass. Sherman' thought he could cut Hood off at Snake gap by sending the 14th corps over the mountains. Once on top of the mountain we could command the gap. We began climbing the mountain at dark; the trail was hard to follow was so narrow and steep we had to go in single file and each man had to hold on to the belt of the man in front of him.

It took us till about 3 o'clock in the morn ing to reach the top, and were too late; the rear guards of Hood's army having passed through the gap. We followed the rebs to Galesyille, and halted. "Old Billy" had taken one of his crazy spells and sent old Pap Thomas with the 23rd and 4th corps and most of the batteries to Xashville to meet A. L. Smith and to receive Hood when he arrived at Xashville.

Sherman disbanded the 16th corps and put part in the 17th corps, and with the 14th, 15th, 17th and 20th corps marched back to Kingston by way of Home. At Kingston the supply train was filled up. While waiting there some of the 10 Indiana boys went out scouting to a little town Castville about twelve miles from camp where there was a a bnshvyhackers The boys got scattered and the bushwhackers got two of them hung them to a tree by their feet, cut their throats from ear to ear and left them hanging there. The two murdered boys were found next day and brought into camp. The Col.

of the 10th then ordered his men to be ready to march at dark, it wras rain ing when they started. They went to Castville, found out from the niggers where the bushwhackers lived they had scattered to their homes surrounded the houses and at daybreak closed in on the bushwhackers and captured them. Those bushwhackers looked like death right there when the sentence of death was read to them. They were hung next day and Sherman's whole army was there to see them strung up. By this time the supply train was loaded and we started back to Atlanta, tearing up the railroad and cutting off all communication as we went.

Shortly after reaching Atlanta Sherman's army started on its famous march to the sea. IeilABOIX "Wanted. 200 head of cattle to pasture. Plenty of grass and water. Xo better pasture in the county.

Durham last Saturday night and made merry for several hours. was gotten up by Mrs. Durham as a surprise on the Prof, and also as a farewell party to the Misses Greenwalt. A fine time was had in the pursuit of social games and devouring most of the contents of a heavily ladened supper table. It was one of trose occasions when the young lads ond lassies leave the scene reluctantly.

On last Friday afternoon, while Henry Ward was preparing to butcher a hog, an accident occurred which plunged himself and family into deepest mourning and called for the sympathy of the entire community. Mr. Ward had sunk a barrel iu the ground to facilitate scalding the hog when without a moment's warning and while his attention was temporarily directed to another matter, his little son, Roscoe, aged two years and nineteen days, fell into the barrel head foremost and, although almost instantly rescued, was so severely scalded that he died in abou nt two hours afterwards in great agony. Greensburg Signal. The Kiowa Review demands that we give proof of our statement that Lew-elling is a tool of jointists and gamblers." That's easy.

We cite the Lew-elling cuckoo editor of the Review to Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Lease, the brainiest person in the pop party. Again, we cite you to the "New Era," a populist paper published at Topeka. Again, we citb you to that pop lawyer at Kansas City, Kansas, Smith, who is being sued(?) for libelling pop officials. Again, we cite you to Jim Legate, of Leavenworth, another prominent pop who is running an anti-administration sheet.

Again, we cite you to the fact that Lewelling virtually pardoned two convicted Hiawatha jointists. "Again, the very fact that Lewelliug's Attorney General refuses to prosecute jointists is further proof. Again, the very fact that never, in Kansas history since the prohibition law went into effect, haye joints run so openly and unmolested as they are now. Take Lewelling's own home Wichita for example. You must be a young freshly-hatched-out cuckoo to ask such an impolitic and foolish question of a "Sherman cuckoo." MARCH 24, 1 804.

A Fascinating' Fad. One of the latest fads is the collection of portraits of noted people; and a very fascinating fad it is, alsa a profitable one, providing, of course, it does not costs too much. A new leature in Demorest's Family Magazine, com men-) ced in the Anril number, is especially timely, and offers an excellent opportunity for forming a superb collection at a minimum expense. Two pages are devoted to exquisite half-tone portraits of celebrities, quite equal in effect to fine photos, and about cabinet size, which are printed so they may be removed without mutilating the Magazine, and arranged in an album especi-1 ally designed for the purpose. This is to be a permanent feature: and those interested in making a portratait collection should avail themselves of this exceptional opportunity, as furnished during the year would costs quite 8100 in photo form.

The presence of four strange and heavily armed men on our stieets Monday evening caused no little uneasiness and some alarm in view of the frequent raids by outlaws on the border and in the territory.

It was soon learned that they were officers from Woodward and were after horse thieves. From what we can learn a man claiming to be from El Reno rode into Woodward looking: for stolen horses and mules. He came on in this direction and overtook a band of Hungarian gypsies, then went back to Woodward, swore out a warrant and started the officers after the gypsies. It appears that some six or seven men had been seen camping with the gypsies at night but disappearing during the day, and it was- supposed the gypsies acted as SDotters for the other fellows who came in at night and run off the stock. The gypsies came into town Tuesday and were soon under arrest.

About the time the officers were ready to start back to Woodward with their prisoners a telegram arrived announcing that outlaws had held up the town to the tune of 67.000. The wholo thing seems to have been a put up job taget the officers out of reach so as to h--ve the way clear to clean up the cash. A little later orders came to release the gvpsies and the officers hurried baclc to Woodward. Ashland Journal.
