A man from the country was in town Monday night, and thought he would paint this town red by tiring oft" his pistol, but un ofllccr nabbed him, and he was made to "shell out" to the tune of $3 for his sport. A Mr. Hawk was in the City Monday last, and while watering his horse at the public got his forefinger on his left hand entangled iu the lariat rope that held the animal which gave a sudden jerk that pulled his finger oil'.

The Monitor, successor to the Haskell County Republican, made its appearance last Saturday evening. It was brimful of local news, and is a very creditable sheet, and advocates Republicanism which is a serious fault, as Its editor, Mr.

The democracy of the United States, as show in its platform, has the courage of its convictions.

Can there be as much said for the after their national convention? so a The Santa Fc Loader, LEADER PCBLISBIXG COMPANY, T. B. PILES, Editor. DEMOCRATIC TICKET. FOR GROVER CLEVELAND, FOR ALLEN.

G. THURMAN. Bklva Lockwood said to the Republican Convention at Chicago, that if they would insert a plunk in favor of woman suffrage, 6he "would 6trip for the fight" in favor of that party. Now, Belva, don't "strip" the Republicans have no red bandannas to cover their faces. The saloon-keepers of Chicago are reaping a ncli Harvest tins wees, helling beer to the Republican delegates.

This convention was made the occasion of a ig party drunk, in order to bloviate, and to work the political bile olTof their stomachs. At last accounts there was two good 6ized breweries on tap. Up to the time of going to press there has been no definite news arrived from Chicago as to who the Republicans have picked upon to be their standard-bearer and get licked at the polls this fall. One thing is certain, that whoever they choose will get "sat down upon" heavily at the November election. The girl of the period continues to make her mark in the educational world.

Of the six fellow ships, worth 400 each, awarded to the students of Cornell university this year, one-half have been won by women, after a lively competition; and still more significant is the fact that their success was acliiev ed in architecture, mathematics and botany. Last Friday the Emperor Frederick died alter a short reign, and was succeeded by his son who will bear the title of Wil liam II. This makes three emperors in three months that has filled the German throne. The good old Kaiser Wilhelm was the first to bow to the Grim Reaper then followed his son. The House of Ho.

henzollern has produced some great mon- archs that has tilled thrones and made the name of Prussia illustrious, among the most prominent was Frederick the Great and old Wilhelm. The friends of Hon. Thomas Geor of Wellington, Kansas, have presented his name as a suitable candidate for Gov ernor ot this commonwealth on the dim ocratic state ticket. Mr. George, besides being a gentleman of fine ability, will have the united and hearty support of his own party, and as he is well known in this sec tion, will make serious inroads in the Re publican ranks, if nominated, and as he is from the southwestern part of this State; where a large influx ot democratic voters have taken place within the last two years there is a probability of success attending his candidature.

REPUBLICAN IDOLATRY. There is one thing that the thinking people of this country should ponder over before casting their ballots, and that is the difference between the Republican and Democratic parties in regard to the estim ation that they hold and pay to their leading men. No dem ocrat has ever asked a third term or permitted his name to be used in that connection. The democratic party regards this unwritten law of the founders of the Republic with a sacred re verence that is in striking contrast to their cotemporary party. In 18S0 Gen.

Grant after serving two terms permitted his name to go before the Republican Na tional Convention for a third term, and was defeated by only a few votes. During the past year, Blaine, the most prominent man before the eyes of his party in con nection with the Republican nomination for the Presidency, has been compelled to write two or three letters in respect to making himself clearly understood on that subject, and after he had emphatically de clined, and then repeated it again, his idol atrous partisans affects not to regard his wishes, or else they secretly cherish the belief that he is trying to ape such politic ians as Caesar, Cromwell and Napoleon, and in the very face of these facts, with the letters of Blaine in their pockets, dele gations from whole states have arrived at Chicago during the past week, with Blaine banners, Blaine badges, and with brass bands playing airs to the Plumed Knight of Maine, and announced that they will cast their ballots for the author of the "Mulligan Letters," "first, last and al ways." This teaches us that the Republi can party is a one-man party, that their idolatrous devotion to their bosses has bnge of Caesarism in it that makes even honest Republicans suspect their patriot ism, and drives them into the de mocratic ranks. The democratic party is greater than its standard-bearers, while the Republican standard-bearers are bigger than their party. To The Public. Any Recounts against the Champion or J.

M. Gore, should be filed for settle ment with Judge Baker. All accounts due the Champion or J. M. Gore are left for colleeiion with and may be paid to Judge Baker.
