The splintering of a white residence with rine bullets fired by negro hands, all on account of the fact that a white saloon refused to serve drinks to negro- soldiers, seems to be Inceutlve for dastardly action of the negroes. Demands of a peremptory nature have been made on the comnmndet of Fort Brown for the arrest and proper punishment of marauders and- the matter of sending state troops to the scene Is only held In abeyance until it Is known what federal military authorities Intend to do.

The men who control such things had It set tled except that Mr. Reynolds would not agree to make the race. Since then, however, he has been whipped Into line. He has entered, but in a half hearted manner, with no idea of being elected, perhaps with no desire to be elected.
