White Cloud Kansas chief. [volume] (White Cloud, Kan.) 1857-1872, 1857-07-16

blow, Blow, Ys Gentle Breezes !"
We would recommend to the august
bag of wind, who blows through the col
umns ofths Holt County News. that he
mind his own business, and We win en-
deavor to mind ours. If he desires to
say something fat. he should at least at
tempt to make it original. and not chew
over the cud as it was spit out by the
editor of the Elwood Advertiser. If
these wiseacres are to be believed, Hhnsss
is soon to be deluged with fraternsl
blood, solely because we saw ct to say
what we thought in regard to Governor
Walkers Inaugural. If the editor OF
the News wants to know what has caused
20 much bloodshed in Kansas, we can
tell him. It is because well-meaning but
thoughtless people have listened to and
followed the advice. OF such fellows as
he, who have been very careful to remain
where there was no danger. but have
clustered and gsssed. melting others to
deeds Of violence.
Some people have rather peculiar no.
tions of conservatism. We noticed that,
as long as we came down pretty sharply
upon Gen. Lane, Gov. Robinson, and
other Free State men. we were very con-
servative-exceedingly so-but as soon
as we ventured to doubt the propriety OF
the course of his Majesty, Gov. Walker,
a pack of calves along the borders of Mis-
souri,. Immediately set up bawling, cry
ing ultraisH. In the eyes Of the editor
of the News, and sages Of that ilk, con-
servatism consists in shooting it into the
Free State ranks hot and heavy; but it
is the height of tiltraism, to insinuate
that the other party does not contain the
essence of perfection. 1t has not been
our intention to NEEDLE in politics, nor
have we done so. In our objections to
Gov. Walkers Inaugural, we took Meth
er Free State nor Pro-Slavery grounds
but some people attempt to make great
buggaboo Of it. While they are at it,
they should give some of the leading
Southern journals a raking down. for we
observe that they are the worst enemies
and most bitter fault-fnders that Gov.
Walker has. But when the editor Of the
News insinuates that we have assailed the
character of Gov. Walker, or counselled
resistance of a single existing law, OF
favored a disturbance of any kind, be
insinnates what he knows, or ought to
know. to be false.
In short, we have nothing to take back,
in reference to the Inaugural. The News
was gotten up. and the editor employed
by company of gentlemen. of different
political parties - Old Line Wings,
Americans, Democrats, Bentonites, and
Anti Bentonits-and tho paper was to
steer clear of politics. But if the editor
sees fit to direct his efforts against the
Bentonites, and elOctioneer agains: Major
Rollins, the American candidate for Gov
ernor of Missouri, (as he is doing, and
if all parties are satisfied with it, it IS
none Of our business; and we desire him
to consider himself in the same fix, as
far as we are concerned. Sir Knight,
Squashahogsny Highfalutin Bombaste'
Cnndiff may be an adept at thrusting q
wooden spear into ring. and all such
tom-foOlery-he gay even haze taste
for re hashing other mems stale sayings
but, really, we have managed to get along
thus far without his advice, and perhaps
We can continue to do so. If he desires
to prevent Us from speaking our senti-
ments, perhaps he had better whistle up
his hounds, and go about it Oid-fashioa,
like men of similar spirit have done be,
fore him-thst is, tumble our press into
the Missouri. The river is handy, and
there is plenty Of room. Otherwise, as
longas we do not violate any of the laws
of the Territory. or of society, nor give
expression to sentiments more harmful
than those in reference to Gov. Walker
Inaugural, we say to him. his aiders
abettors, satellites, and suckers
