A press dispatch of April 15
skys that the principal event at
Yellowstone park that day was
“the arrest of one of the em-
ployes of the Yellowstone Park
Transportation company, the
ooncern that owns the hotels and
stage lines of the reserve. This
man was found at a point about
five miles from the president.
The trooper promptly ordered
his hands up and marched him
baok to the post at the point of
his revolver. He was getting
too close to the president, the
trooper explained, when he
brought in his prisoner. The
man was released with a warn-
ing to keep away from the presi-
dent’s neighborhood and go pro-
vided with a pass in the future. ’ ’

LET US BE CONSISTENT

The Index is an independent
paper politically and endeavors
to handle any political question
without partisan prejudice For
this reason we can consistently
criticise any party or movement
that is public in its nature.
We see in a late dispatch from
Washington that democrats are
rejoicing over their “good luck”
in the fact that the trusts and
railroad combinations, are dis-
pleased with the treatment they
are receiving at the hands of the
republicans in the courts.
Now, if we remember correct-
ly, it is only a few short days
since the demqorats were com-
forting themselves with charging
the republicans with being the
fridnds of the trusts and other
great combinations.
The question would naturally
arise, can the trusts look totheso
rejoicing democats for friend-
ship and sympathy? if not,
where does the rejoioing come
in? If th6 cry against trusts
that came up from the democrat-
ic camp daring the last campaign
was in good faith, why not be
rejoicing with the people of the
country over the victory won bv
the republicans over the trusts?
We may not be well informed
as to the purposes and aims of
the democratic party. Perhaps
it is to bunt objections to all the
movements of other parties in-
stead of inaugurating movements
and polioies of its own. Per-
haps its purpose is to play hide-
aqd-seek with the great eoon -
ornic problems instead of push-
ing boldly to the front with well
defined propositions for their so
lution. It may be that it will
work good to the country to be
all the time objeoting, but we
think it better polioy to at least
stand aside and give the other
fellow a show while he is at the
bat. And above all, let us be
oonsietent.
Weatherford man says two
Mineral Wells girls came here
sometime ago and going to John
Gilbert’s livery stable asked for
a gentle horse, as they wanted to
drive out in the country a few
miles. John hitohed up a rig,
says our informant and told them
that the horse would be all right
if they kept the rein from his
tail. When they returned in the
evening he asked them if they
had had any trouble. 'Oh, no
said one of the girls, 'there was
one little shower, but we had an
umbrella, and we took turns at
holding it over the horse’s tail,
so that there was not a drop of
rain touched it, and we got
long all right. ’ ”
The Index is always ready to
make allowance for any mistake
or blunder made by anybody,
but it claims the right to inquire
into the whys and wherefores of
a peculiar incident. On the oc-
casion of the preident’s visit to
Yellowstone park we took part
in the general interest of the
country in his behalf and was
glad to know that such a pleas
ant profiiable rest was within his
reach. But we want to know by
what authority any other Amer-
ican citizen can be arrested anc
marched out of the reservation
at the point of a sixshooter? The
dispatches say he was “too close
