The PEOPLE oBE GULLED.-The Dem
ocratic Territorial Convention recently
held at Leavenworth, was termed "Con-
vention Of all the Conservatives" The
old Pro- Slavery leaders ruled the roast.
A resolution was submitted, opposing the
admission of negroes into Kansas. Here
upon the Slavsites kicked up muss. and
the resolution was made to read free ne
gross-thus countenancing the admission
of negroes who are slaves. In truth, it
is the old Pro-SlaVery party whitewashcd
over, and called Democratic. Nothing
was done that the Pro-Slavery party dis
liked, and the profsssed Free State men
in the Convention knnckled down to them
completely. The object is. to make Kan
sas a Slave State, in the name Of Democ-
raey, while making the people believe
that the question is definitely settled
Hundreds who have heretofore fought
against Slavery, viii rush blindly into
the Democratic gull-trap. and win be
dipped into making Kansas Slave State.

They attempted to accomplish their end
openly. but failed-they are now at work
secretly, and unless the freemen of Kan
sas are wide awake and vigilant. their
enemies viii steal a march upon them.

CORRECTIONAL friend informs us, that
Sammedary's whipping. by a brother Of
Bob Schenck, which we mentioned last
week. was administered in theysar 1910.
instead Of 1912 General Harrison had
made speech. in which he mentioned some
Of the customs of early times in Ohio.
In his "reminiscences, he mentioned his
intimacy with the Schenck family-the
parents Of Bob and his brother. Medary
made these remarks the pretext for cast
ing foul insinuatiOn upon the character
of Mrs. Schenck. Sans chastiser, who
was Lieutenant in the Navy, being at
Washington City, took up copy Of the
Statesman, in which he saw the SANDER.
He became so incensed, that he travelled
all the way from Warrington to Colum-
bus, to fog the slandsrer. Stopping at
hotel, and inquiring where he could find
Medary, he was told that Sam usually
passed by there, in going to and from
his meals. and was expected along
in a short time. He then gave the
waiter half dollar, if he would watch
for Sam, and point him out as he passed.
The waiter did so-in a short time
Schenck got to "see SAM" and flogged
him, as before stated. We make this
correction with pleasure. as the biography
Of so distinguished an individual should
be true to the letter.

Here, then, We have a tax in this
County, of SIC, 44O.234. Now, what is
this heavy tax for! We hear it urged
every day, that Kansas should not yet be
admitted as State, because she is too
poor = by remaining Territory, the
Government viii pay all her expenses.
Why, then, we ask again, these heavy
taxes? Part of It is Territorial tax
what use is it appropriated to? This
tax is as heavy as that Of many of the
States-yst we are too poor 10 become a
STATED And the County portion of the
tsx-do the officers swallow it all up
Part Of it, we may be told, is school tax.
Where, in Doniphan County, is there a
free school? We have not yet heard OF
any.
Large as the tax is, it is much smaller
than it would have been, had all been
taxed. In this place, nearly half the
people wcrc passed by, by our extremely
moral, sober, and competent Assessor. And
AZ It was in this place, so no doubt it was
in other places. He let many slip. and
piled it heavily upon the shoulders of the
balance. A certain amount of taxes had
to be collected. When the Assessor
made his returns, tile Board of Commits
sioners had to determine what per cent.
should be levied to raise that amount. As
amatter of eourse, as large amount Of
the property in the County had been
skipped by the Assessor, the balance had
to bear heavier tax, to raise tho required
amount. We are not in favor of rebel
ling. nor refusing to pay taxes 1--WE have
paid what little taxes were charged against
us)-but it is no more than right, when
men are so heavily taxed, that they should
know what it is for.
