S.KRnkas Kansas Kansas -


Gus. The Pioneer is itching for the smell OF gun
powder. The Pioneer tries to DO honest-and
can't. The violent system of crushing-out Is
consumated in Kansas, and the Free State men
and women, who are not incarcerated at Lecomp-
ton. for their opinions, are flying to their homes
in the North, naked and destitute, with every
thing they once owned appropriated by the grace
less rufians of the Border. At this condition OF
things the Pioneer smiles, then chuckies, then
whimpers, with an onion in its eye, . Poor Nam
sas Where are thy murders now and thy
civil wars, and thine outrages?" ?" Honest lago!
The vanity of tho Pioneer man is rcw. And
then he leans back upon his dignity and declares
with his accustomed nasal twang, 50 Order reiJns
in Varsav.'' Unfortunate, but most appropri-
ate quotation! Comparison true to tine lie !
Does the Pioneer man know where 1t originated:
When the Empress Catherine and her successor
Alexander crushed out the liberties of Poland,
and hurled the artillery over struggling Repue-
lic till its homes were desoated, and the streets
of its capital crimsoned with human gore, the
honesty Of the world was shocked, and the Press
cried out satricaly '' Order reigns in Warsaw p
When Napoleon the little, aimed revolver at
for whom they pleased-at the peril OF lie,
and ground the liberties of the French people
under the remorseless tread of tyranny-the world
echoed with sneer 6 Order reigns in Warsaw -
So now. when Union Democracy has driven into
Kansas the congregrated scoundrels OF the nation
when laws have been enacted which exclude
men from the ballot-box, unless they will swear
that slavery is a holy thing-when all Free State
men have been either driven out of the territory,
or locked into filthy prison to await their sham
sentence for murder next April-when Freedom
has been crushed out, and slavery already inau-
gurated, the Pioneer puts on one of its pous long
faces and exclaims-s' Order reignS in Var
sar!'
Yes-that's the point exactly ''Order reigns
in Warsaw - (Kansas) just as s. order reigned -
in own-trodden Poland, just as g order reign
ed in volatile France under the tyrannical ed
lets of the paryenue usurper, the noble nephew
Of his uncle,' just as g order reigned !" in Aus
tria and Hungary, after Haynau's butcherng
guillotnes had been walking among the free
thinkers, and Republicans
But the Pioneer says Sc That Jaw (the 4,e-
braska Billy secured to the actual inhabitants of
the Territory the right to determine their local
institutional
What brass-fronted impudence! On the con-
trary, the silly author Of that paragraph knows
that Frank Pierce has sent them Governor arm
ed with the power to veto the laws which the
q actual inhabitants = may make that under the
Nebraska Bill the ' actual inhabitants " cannot
"determne their local Institutions" by excluding
slavery from the Territory, even by a unanimous
cote and that in spite of or rather under 8 that
law" armed Rufians marched into the territory
and wrestcd the ballot box from the people
Wonderful " security ~
But the infalible Pioneer further says I" Pro-
Slavery and Free State Rulians have Jared alike.
Equal and exact Justice have been rendered to
ALL
What blessed accuracy Of vision! The Pio-
neer quill-driver has evidently been looking
through glasses, but not Of that kind to improve
his eye-sight. His penetration is about as acute
as it was last week when he published a ''wther-
ing letter" from Secretary Marcy to Gov Grimef,
Of Iowa, which proved next day to be only a
"withering" humbug-especiall s'withering" to
its victim. "The Pro-savery and Free State
Ruffians have fared alike'' eh Buford's drunk
''United States troops;'' where are the Free
State men who have been thus enlisted? We
hav'nt heard of them! Where are the 'Pro-
slavery rniiianS," that have been met and turned
back, as the Free State emigrant train of $50
in October? We havn't heard Of them.-
Where are the ''Pro- Slavery rufians'' who have
been arrested for s'Trcason,' and incarcerated
in a damp unhealthy 1oorless dungeon, like the
t2O martyrs now pining in that lonely prison.
Strange-we have not heard of any such The
Pioneer finally says: "The free State settlers
are evidently looking forward to ultimate secu.
rity and repose.' Not a doubt of it. Many of
them are already" secured'' with United States
artillery bearing upon them in their waking and
sleeping hours, and many others have found
"repose beneath tho green sward of Lawrence,
sacrificed npon the altar of Free Thought by
pack of heartless drunken assassins, who would
{" hurrah" " before the Pioneer Office if they lived
in st. Paul. ''Security ind repose ''-oh yes
with vengeance! The Pioneer need not ham
ker after any more blood, until it washes from
the mantle Of its party all that has been split for
the last two years in Kansas, enough to condemn
forever the administration in the eyes Of the civ
ilized world. And there will be enough more
murders and outrages, before the Pioneer can
wash lis hands. of the disgrace of being an ac-
compce in such villainy, or before it can satisfy
the world that Governor Geary is saint, or that
the late administration is picture of " the i'm.
maculate conception
