KANSAS GOVERNMENT TO BE ARRESTED We
cut the following from the St. Louis Repub-
hcas:
The District Court for the Territory Of
Kansas, it il stated, will meet ut Lccompton
on the first Monday in April. AT that time
the case Of the members Of the Bogus Legis-
lature, and of the Mock Governor, and other
State officers, will be presented for the con-
slderation of the Grand Jury. Under the
laws Of the Territory now in existence. it will
1e strange il all these men are not indicted
Ihat their arrest will follow, If they do not
make their escape from the Territory, is
equally certain.
If SO decided, let them 80 ahead. Every
violent undertaking Of this kind will help to
assure tho admission Of Kansas aud the ac-
ceptance of the Constitution she has present
Ell to Congress. Let them defy the people
let them attempt TO ''subdue . the free cx.
preston Of their sentiments and their wishes !:
let them indict and imprison the peoples Or
hcers such an effort, such an net will 90 very
tar towards assuring their liberation from
PRISON 70 assume the functions of supreme Of
neers Of the Free State Of Kansas le
tolerably certain p procure that result. 60
on, gentlemen, in your blind, mad zeal.
eT- The Burlington and Missouri River
Railroad 60. ask Of Wapello county another
corporate subscription Of 500, 200 TO their
road, N addition 70 100000 already sub
scribed, The Eddyyille Commercial opposes
1t, for it cannot see why that road is entitled
70 all the county assistance, when such en-
terprlses as the keokuk and Fort Des Mones
road, which, to say the least. viii be quite rs
important TO the county, may be expected to
solicit similar aid, and the county would be
lndlsposed to add anything to $500. 600 Of
liability, and her bonds would not be likely
% be worth much II she did. Ii would seem
as II the reasoning was foreible. We do not
ask Of the people Of the interior TO refrain
from assisting enterprises from other points
which are likely to prove advantageous to
them, in order to husband their resources for
the advantage Of keokuk enterprise, but
We would suggest TO them to consider their
own relative interest IN these two roads: con
slder whether il will not promote their own
prosperity TO preseye the power OF rendering
material assistance 10 our road, which wiIl
certainly, under equal ana ordinary auspices,
penetrate 70 Their region before the Burliag-
Ton road; and before casting their votes for
the new loan, reflect whether doing 10 Will or
will not materially impair their power or
weaken their willingness to assist the keokuk
and Fort Des MONIES road. we do not pre-
tend g judge q that; we only ask them 70 do
50, calmly and candidy.
