THE GRANT COUNTY NEWS, April 10. 1891. It needs no nrgniriont lo prove Hint n hungry Iutlfun can readily becomo n bad Indian. Hunger will make n nvnge out of tho meekest man or bcofit; therefore it behoove tlio Imlian bureau of the government Jo fee tlmt no Iudinns. go hungry tlirotigh the fault of it or its ngentu. A convict in (he Iowa peniten tiary lifts been relented after f erring fourteen year for n crime of which he wnu innocent, lie was rouvteted of the murder of his brother, and ceiiteuccd to iiujirin onment for life. Hcecntly the real murderer died, and on Inn death bed made n confession. In two yearn it will be dilliuiilt to iiud a muii otioeetl to the elec tion of United Sttcu senator by direct vote of the people, and when the new idea is ouco adopted it will be fctill more ditllcult to find 11 senator whoso election in tainted by charges of bribery, a tusk which ie now, nine, entirely too easy. The San Francisco Commercial iS'cWB nays that "choice I'acilic coaBt hop, which comprise tlio best assortment offered in the cnslorn market, have lately changed hand there at ll()c, a lot of 100 bales of Oregon bringing that rate, while bent eastern offering were Keeking tt buyer at about "e. There's a slight diirerenco of opinion between the democratic governor of Rhode Island and the democratic governor-sonator of New York ns to who is the gov. ernor of Connecticut. It is quite probable that the same two gentle men disagree as to who should receive the democratic presidential nomination. (iovcrnor Hogg, of Texas, thinks lie knows when lie gets enough of anything. He has vetoed a bill jmsfud by the legislature, author izing the acceptance of. the sugar bounty by the stale for s igar pro duced on the state sugar plantation. He objects to the bounty becaiine he thinks it will lead to govern ment siiK!rvision and interference with state affair. Thin veto may 1m) based on good constitutional grounds, but it will cost thu state of Texas a "pretty penny." "Uneasy lies the head that wears n crown" was never truer than it is today. He is a careless student, indeed, who cannot, in even a cas ual study of the present t-ocial and political condition of Kurope, per ceive the marked tendency towards a general upheaval. Whether or not when the now smothered vol cano bursts its bonds and overllows continental Knrojie the people will himply exchange masters or be come 'their own masters depends largely njiou the people them-felves. Is anything impossible? For years wo had been told that it was iuiK)88il)le to duplicate the silk veined paper upon which the government prints its inoney,whieh is manufactured under the control of the government, by a tecret process which has made its owners nil wealthy; yet this paper has been so well imitated that experts have been unable to tell the gen uine and the imitation one from the other. A very dangerous counterfeit S'-i silver certificate is in circulation printed upon this minor, and everyone should exer cise care in receiving notes of that denomination. The series coun terfeited has a picture of General Hancock on the face of the note. A judgo away down in Georgia, while sitting on a cape where there was liable to be some shooting in court by friends of the prisoner, delivered the following in n vigor ous manner: "If any man is de tected in this court with a weniHin on his person, either concealed or excised, it will cost him just SlOOO, twelve months in the peni tentiary anil six months in the chain gang. If ni.y man in this court room knows of anyone who has a weapon, he can now btep forward ami make ailldavit to that eliect, and we'll suspend this case right here and try the man who has the pistol, the first thing we do. I want to say, further, that if any member of this bar is inter fered with in any way, it will cost the person who interferes with him $100 and costs and twenty days in the chain gang. That's all I have to say, and now let anybody who wants to interfere with this court begin right now." Not a word was fuid by anyone, and the trial of the case proceeded. The state that isn't icprcscntcd at the world's fair will loose a great deal more than the exliibi- , lion win oy us notciicc. Many good judges aro of the opinion that the raisin-growing industry of California is Icing overdone. There has certainly been an extraordinary increase in the annual product of late, while tlio conditions are'right for.n frtill further enormous growth. The qucttiou, therefore, is whether the output will not soon exceed the demand at paying prices, or Indeed, at any price. It is understood that n request recently reauhed the euslonis de partment from Wahiiiiton that steps be taken to prevent the em! - J gration of Chinese from Canada lu the Foiled States. Tho depart- i incut answered that it lliul no power to take action of the kind suggested. Once the Ceiestinls pay ik)II tax, they are at liberty to come and go the same as any other person in Canada. Two years ago two Americans were murdered in Pennsylvania by three Italians. Two of the murderers escaped to Italy with $12,000 stolen money, and the Italian government icfiised to give theiu up. Secretary Blaine will make use of this incident in the present negotiations. Socialists throughout Italy are organizing a demonstration for the first of May. As a preparation for the demonstration they have issued a sinister manifesto printed on red paper, which is being (ecretly distributed among workingmcn. In an article on the travels to tho Holy Lard, the writer says that exhorbitant prices are charged by the boatmen to carry passengers across the Sen of Galilee. Tlieie is now no mystery as to why the Saviour walked those waters. The reason the tourists don't is because they can't. Superintendent G. S. Downing, of the jM-niteiitiary, has received 70 prisoners since the first of dan nary. In the same length of time he lias discharged ill! by expiration ami commutation of M'liteneeH. This leaves an iucreasu of III pris oners for the tits t quarter of this ycftr. There are now 'loll convicts in the institution. Some people wonder how it is that so many towns develop in a few short years into big cities, says the Silverlon Appeal. Here is one of the means by which the marvelous results are accomplished. The people of Tucson, Arizona, by a jtunlic subscription, buy S,()()U copies of their local paper every month for the purs)Mi of sending it abroad, and, in addition, pay S'JOO a mouth for "write nps" of their city. Tamar, Colormio, pays S'-'OOO for a pamphlet and SlfiOO for "wiite ups" in the local press. The .Monitor of Fort Scott, Kan., is paid $7,000 for talking up the advantages of that city. Many other towns are doing us milch, and the people in this part of the country will find it pays cities as Well as individuals to be advertised. RrID NhDBmD Agricultural Of XX o j3 1 axi or C. A.
