Shall We Vote or Not Vote,

! THIS IS A QUESTION OF GREAT IMP0R-
Il tanee. My OWN opinion is that We ought not
to vote; but this difference of opinion will by
no means prevent me from selling all the goods

nal apportionment act of the bogus authorities.

Supposing, however. that the voters will vast
ly outnumber the non-Voters, have made espe-
cial arrangements for their accommodation, not
in the way of voting. but in the way of supply
ing them with GROCERIES and PROVISIONS
at the LeavenHorth and Kansas prices.
The attention of the settlers on the Neosho,
Usage, &C., is particularly called to this arrange
ment.
On or about the Ist of October | shall take
possession of my new store, which is of solid
stone, with brick front. thus afforiing an excel
lent opportunity for refuge in time Of war and is
three stories high aud sixty feet long. Ny OBJ
ject is to sell at wholesale at precisely tho same
as the heavenworth wholesale stores, with the
addition of freight from LeaEenworth here.
This will enable the distant settlers TO obtain

Violence al The Election.
LINZ Co. Ian. 5th. 1853

LINN Co., j an. 5th, 1905.
6. W..Brown, Esq.-The election yes
terday. was and exciting affair.
In Paris, the bogus county seat, and the
only strong hold of slavery in the county,
all wasquiet. About 80 votes were polled
against the Lecompton Constitution. No
pro-slaYery man voted, as they called the
election Free State humbug. For State
officers, they polled over 100 votes.
At Sugar Mound, over 100 votes were
polled against the Constitution and for
State officers. As the polls were about
closing, Capt Montgomery, who COM
manded the Territorial militia which was
organized for the defence of the ballot
box, arrived at Sugar Mound with copy
of the Lawrence Republican, Extra. He
read this to the crowd, and made a speech.
During the excitement he seized the bal
lot-box and dashed it to pieces and then
stamped upon it.
At Potosi, about 5 miles from me, one
of the Judges, pro-slavery man, armed
with revolvers and knives, undertook to
prevent an election on the Constitution,
declaring that question settled. He also
proclaimed the late election laws null and
void, and said he should allow every man
to vote who offered to. Soon after eight
men,, whom all present knew, resided in
Missouri, rode up, voted. and returned
back to the State. The returns will be
speedily sent up. zase =

This annoyed the South~ood family so
much, that Mrs. Southwood on a certain
time met Mrs. Stone at the well and
Knocked her down with ahaad-spike, and
dangerously beat her. Connected with
this, some other Free State settlers re-
turned and began to gather up their stray
Stock-hogs. &c. As this had all been
appropriated, and much of it sold, the
present owners refused to give it up
The real owners feeling themselyesstrong
enough, took it. They also armed them
selves in body and went to those who
occupied claims formerly owned by Free
State men, and ordered them to leave,
which was done; "Old Preacher South
wood" among the number. They came
to Ft. Scott and made complaints before
the Grand Jury, of those men who had
warned them off, and had all whom they
could identify arrested under the rebellion
act.
$Others were arrested for stealing hogs,
and Others for secreting them-and so on
long string of indictments and harrass-
ments and trials, similar to those against
the Free State men at Lecompton.
This finally become so grevious the
people would stand it no longer and re-
sisted. The court at Ft. Scott, became
second edition of that under the infa-
nous Lecompt. To correct this the Free
State settlers established Sguatter Court,
before which they tried all men who had
in any manner interfered to harrass them.
Several were tried and fined. In every
instance they were required to make full
restitution. While this court was in ses-
sion an attempt was made by the o. S.
Deputy Marshal to arrest them. But no
arrests were make by the posse, as they
were fred on by the court which caused
them to retreat and keep at safe distance.
Considerable firing was done on both sides,
but no harm was done. No one was
killed or wounded. Both parties sent for
reinforcements. About dozen men came
in here from Missouri, but finally went
back without doing anything. About a
hundred and twenty-five Free State men
came in to aid the court. At this time
six Free State men had been arrested;
most of them isolated individuals. To
liberate them, an attack was meditated
on Ft. Scott. The citizens organized for
the defence of the town and kept guard
nine days, day and night, till the arrival
of the troops on the 21st of Dec, since
which time all has been quiet.
Of the six prisoners, two are out on bail
without trial; one was discharged after
examination; one gave bail after exami-
nation, and two escaped.
Ft. Scott is perfect hot-bed of fanati-
cism. A Free State man who goes with
his party in the election is marked man
and his continued residence made as un-
comfortable as possible.
A petition is being circulated now to
get the county seat changed, and also the
name of the county, SO that man may
have some show of Justice, and not be in
danger of his life. We also expect the
voting precincts to be changed.
In this precinct we suppose there are
not 300 legal voters. Now the Pro-
slavery vote is 376 and the Free State SO.
December 21st they pOlled 219 votes
for the Constitution. . j.

Fort Scott.


Fort Scott was a small military out
post; in no sense Fort, nor in any man
ner fortified. 1t was built sixteen years
ago as a station for troops, to hold the
Indians in check. The buildings are all
frame, but one which was the old guard
house, now used for a grocery store
The officers quarters, being four houses
on one side of square, are now the prin-
cipal residences of the citizens. Two
buildings, one on each side of the square,
were barracks for soldiers. These are
now offices, &c. On the same side with
one of these barracks is a large stable two
hundred feet long for dragoon horses. On
the remaining side of the square is the
old guard house and the building former
ly used as hospital, and one other build
ing for soldiers quarters. This is used
for the same purpose now by company
of United States troops which came down
here to defend the town from ,yIM LANE,
in the last war, and are to remain here all
winter. The public square contains about
two acres. 1t has a well and row of
shade trees in front of the dwellings.
Fort Scott is situated about four miles
from Missouri, on the point of a narrow
bluff, made by branch putting into the
Narration river from the South. As you
go South, the prairie widens, and on this
elevation the new town of Fort Scott is
principally situated. At the Fort, the
divide is about forty rods wide. The
town plat goes on to the bottoms on
both sides of it.
The buildings of this post were sold at
public sale BY the Government to the
highest bidder about two years ago. They
brought from 500 to $500 spiece-not
including the land. There is no title yet
to that; it being part of the New York
Indian lands. The frst purchasers were
Pro-slavery men. and they yet hold aeon
trolling influence here. There have been
but two or three buildings and these were
logs put up since the citizens owned the
town.
The Town Company have five hundred
acres laid out for town, but so far as l
can Judge, with little or no prospect OF
ever making anything of it. The vio-
lence and insults shown to the Free State
settlers have created a prejudice against
Fort Scott which will be serious draw
back to its prosperity. The town is plea
sanity situated. But no scenery, however
beautiful can counteract the malign intiu-
ences of ultra Pro-slsvery and Border
Rufian rule. Rale or ruin is the motto
and submission or determination the ex-
action. The country about is fast set
ting up and by another year will be
mostly taken. There is considerable coal
west of here, and stone in abundance
Water is plenty, and timber As in other
parts of the Territory rather scarce, for so
great an extent of prairie. j.
