It waa in tho month of December,
1823, that James Monroe laid down thb
principle in his annual mossngo to con
gress that no European nation ought
to bo allowed to plant new colonies
upon this continent. This was all
there ever was of what Is known aB
tho Monroe doctrine. It did not refer
to colonies already esiaoiisiiod; it re
ferred alone'to tho future.
Rosowater has publictly allied him

According to tho Inter Ocean's re
port of tho winter wheat crop in Illi
nois, thore woto about U00,000 acres
less planted last fall than tho previous
fall. But the growing crop at present
is good, promising much above the
avorago yield. On account of tho
drouth last fall tho winter whoat crop
in all the west will fall far below, in
acreage.that of tho previous j o ir, henna
there is great iuuuceineut for planting
largely of spring wheat.

The Pitkin (Col.) lndependmt says
that three years ago, March 1st the
llrst house a log cabin -was built in
that "camp," and that now it has four
hundred houses and about 2,000 inhab
itants, with tho prospects of an enor
mous "boem" tljm SVvlng. In addi
tion to the fact that it is one of the
best mining districts, in tho Gunoisofi
country, the IX & S. P. railroad is fin
ished to within 12 miles of Pitkin, nnd
will reach that town by Juno next.

Repudiation does hot pay in tho end.
Our townsman, Jolm Fitzgerald, tho
railroad builder and contractor, has
had in his possession soino Wisconsin
railroad bonds that ho received in part
payment on a contract years ago, and
that had no market valuo for n long
time. Ilowover, tlio mills of the law
grinding over so slowly, finally got out
some kind of grist, and the bondu art
good now not only for their face but
every $1,000 bond costs tlierepudiators
the sum of S1.781.B7. Tho 8781.67 re
presents the accrued interest. Mutt

Sergeant Masoil, who shot at Gui
teau, through the window of tho jail
was sentenced by tho court martial to
be dishonorably discharged, 'to forfeit
all honors and pay. and to servo eight
years at lmrd'labor in prison. He has
been taken to the Albany prison. Pe
titions for his pardon are being sent to
tho President from everywhere, large
ly signod. While we think tho act of
shooting at tho assassin, under the cir
cumstances, a foolish and oownrdly
out, wo remember that tho tone of
nearly the entire press of the country,
great and small, just at that time, ws
such ;u to make any crank bolievti that
to kill Guiteau, would not only bo a
virtue, but entitle the killer to the
higheBt honors of a patriot and a hero.
And it was generally lamented that
Mason's shot did not take deadly effect.
When Mason made that shot the peo
ple were not done deploring tho failure
of the prison-guard to kill him, when,
as it was reported Guiteau drew a knife
on him; and tho wliolo influence of the
press and people, was sufficient
to induco many men to beliove
that the slaying of the
assassin of Garfield would bo no more
criminal than the killing of a snake or
a mad dog. Honco tho people were
to blame for the guard going beyorul
his Boldlerly duty, and thoreforo wo
argue that tho people are doing right
in asking for his pardon.
Mason was guilty of agrlovous offense
toward army regulations, but he com
mitted no crime against tho prevailing
sentiments of the masses of the Amer
ican people, but acted strictly in liar
money with thorn.

School Interests,
Since my article of last week, I have
studied up the matter of school houm
bonds and will give the rest the benefit
of my work. I find that having an
enumeration of about 80, wo can issue
bonds to the amount of 82,000. They
cannot draw over 7 per cent. To start
this we must get a petition signed bj
one-third of the voters asking the
school board to appoint a meeting to
voto oi' the issuance of bonds, said no
llcoto be given 20 days prior to the
meeting. The.school board then, pro
vlded two-thirds vote in favor of
issuing the bonds, Issuo the bonds and
send them to tho Stato Auditor for
auditing, who in turn sends them to
tho county clerk for registering, when
they aro roturned to tho school officers
to be placed on the market, In talk
ing over this matter with our citizens
I find .that all think wo should have a
building at least 40x40, two stories 0
and 11 feot.
Lot us give this matter -a thorough
ventilation a week from Monday night
at the annual mooting. Post yourself
on what It will cost and how long wo
ought to havo to pay it off in, and how
much wo could pay each year. Wo
all feel tho need of a good school house
and school in our town and lot us not
be divided on it. Get it tho best way.
the cheapest, and quickest way. We
are all proud of our town, and this is
the noxt step to make u success of it.

Some wcoks ago a communication
appeared In tho Washington Post, a
Democratic , puper, which wan out
rageously nbuslvo of Garfield, declar
ing him to bo a demagoguo and wily
office seeker. Tlio editor of the Post
stated that tho author of tho article
was a prominent Republican, a mem
ber of tho Chicago convention, and
that IiIb name would be given to the
public on demand by Garfield's friends.
Tho demand lias beon made, but tho
name appears to not bo forth coming. It
is probable that the Post lied about tho
authorship, ami that it was a Demo
cratic scheme to cause trouble amongst
Republicans, to bo engendered through
the varied remarks, concerning the
matter, of the Republican press. If
this was the hope of tlio author it has
mot with Blgnal failure, for the news
papers universally ourso tho writer of
tho Post letter, whoever ho may bo, aa
a vandal and liar, and none are strong
er in their denunciations than the stalwarts.
