We would whisper a word in the ear
of our belligerent exchanges, for their ben
eft, and would simply suggest that they
make paper soorthy the support of anins
telligent public. and they will have no
occasion to labor to traduce others who
have already met with success. God
helps those who help themselves not
those who labor to rob others of name
and position.

OF The Illinois Central Railroad is
still experimenting with coal burning en-

the engine ran 254 miles with coal, at a
cost of 1925. The cost of wood would
have been 31.75, making saving of
S22.50 by the use of coal.

Room for All.


There is class of journals all over the
country which desire notoriety, and are
hourly seeking some method to obtain it.
If they cannot get noticed lcgitimately,
like puppies barking at more stately ours,
they attack some paper which has an ex-
tended circulation, with the view of get
ting notice, Indifferent as to the charac-
ter Of that notice, So they can get before
the public. We have our rlind on sever
al newspapers of this class, and have re-
solved to allow them free passage TO OBJ
livion, without any effort on our part to
hasten them in their progress. We have
other duties to perform than to notice the
puppies snarling at our expense. If the
circulation of the Herald of Freedom was
I limited to four or FIVE hundred subscri-
bers, it would be looked upon as very fair
paper, and 10 one would whisper word
against its course or policy. 1t has a cir
eulation and position equal TO no other pa
per in the West, and is welding an influ-
ence severely felt by aspiring demagogues-
hence the desire to crush it out. Poor
fools, when will they learn that there is
room enough in this world for them and
us; and that their assaults neither weaken
our influence nor strengthen theirs?
GOur exchanges will please accept our
thanks for their kind expressions in re-
gard to the late war of words between
Chas. Robinson and ourself. Among the
many articles vindicating us, we copy the
following from the Chautauque Democrat,
an old free soil paper with which we used
to exchange when publishing paper in
Pennsylvania. The editor says
'BRowN VS.. RoBINsoN.-In the foolish
and unfortunate quarrel between Brown
of the Kansas Herald Of Freedom, and Gov
Robinson, We notice most of the Republi-

favor Robinson. Why, we cannot divine

disgraced, is considered of more importance

of course, the facts in the case. But we

OtThere is story in Washington that
in consequence of the declining state of his
health, Gen. Cass will soon withdraw from
the head of the State Department, and
that Governor Walker will be recalled
from Kansas to fill the place of the great
Observation-Disclosures Sun.
We place no confidence in the rumor
Gov. WALKER cannot be spared from Kan
sas, and in justice to himself and the peo-
pie here, he should not consent to be re-
called TO fill another post. He is Just
getting acquainted with the settlers, and
they are getting acquainted with him, and
wish him to remain until our troubles are
over. IF Gov. Walker should leave us
now, the country would be involved in
strife again ere one month should expire.

Excitement about Claims.

in the vicinity of Moneka. held two claims
each, under the bogus laws. The new
corners who saw this, and had no fear of
said law before their eyes, jumped the ex-
ira claims so held, and commenced build
ing on them. In one instance, the man
who held the claim shot at the new COM
or, and came near killing him. He had the
man arrested, and tried before the Justice
of the Peace, who held, it is said, three
claims.
| The Justice asked the plaintiff if he
went upon this mans claim with the in
tention of holding it. He replied that he
did. "My decision then isl said he,
''that he served YOU right. You ought to
be shot,
Sometime after, two men came in from
Indiana. They took claims held by men
occupying two, and commenced improy-
ing them. The first had his wagon, trunk,
harness and provisions put in pile and
E
sued for trespass, and fined one cent, which
he refused to pay. The second was ar
rested by the sheriff for trespass, and ia
ken before the Justice of the Peace for
trial. On the trial it was proven that the
prosecutor held two claims, and that the
defendant did not go upon the quarter
section which had been filed upon BY the
prosecutor. The Justice decided that he
had committed trespass, and that he
must be bound over to the higher Court
in $500 bonds, to stand trial fora crime,
the penalty of which is twenty years i'm
prisonment in the penitentiary. The men
on hearing this. arose, and drawing their
reyoivers, told the Justice that they should
depend on those for justice after this, and
not on him; and raising the "whoop'
they defied the sheriff and his posse to
take them. Saturday and Sunday were
busy days, preparing for the sheriff, whom
they expected on Monday.
In order to keep the peace, the prose-
cutor withdrew his suit. and thus saved
the people from coming in collision with
the bogus officers.
4 short time since, Mr.. Stillman and
Mr.. Comstock were at Lecompton, to test
the validity of their title to the claims
they had jumped. The officers at the
Land Office sustained them in their posi-.
ton, and told them if they were molested
again by the men who held two claims,
/ they would send down and have them ar
rested and punished for violating the q.
i s. laws.
In many localities in this Territory,
and also in Nebraska. men are trying to
hold two claims, and in order to do ne
sort to violence and mobs. It Is well to
have it understood at once, that no man
can hold more than one claim.
