AID FOR KAEsAs.-During the past week i,
our citizens have been favored with a state
ment OF the suferiIgs in Kansas, together
with the causes which led thereto, by Col.
MoUIToN, who has recently returned frsm
that "dark and bloody ground."' The at.
tendance at the lecture of the Col. at the
Town Hall on Friday evening was very
small, and, Of course, no action was taken f;
but on Sunday afternoon, at bis lecture in
the Disciple Church, every available seat
was occupied, and his remarks were listened
to with marked attention. A committee,
consisting Of Messrs. F. w. SEYMOUR, H..
H. STEVENS, H. Y. BEEGE, CHAs. JUDp and
4. 9. SWITZERLAND, were appointed, which
shall constitute the Central Committss of
Portage county.
On Monday night, the Committee had
meeting and organized by the appointment mt
OF F. w. Seymour, as Chairman ; H. H.
Stevens, Secretary, and H. Y. Beebe, Treas.
urer. The Committee ordered the Secre.
tary to provide subscription papers to be
placed in the hands of suitable persons in
the county. with request that they bs dill.
lgently circulated, and the amount raised
be paid over TO the Treasurer on the first Of
each month.
We understand that measures will be i'm.
mediately taken by the committee to have
the county thoroughly canyassed, and we
hope our citizens will respond in a liberal
manner. Money, wheat, clothing and pro.
Visisns are what the people in Kansas re.
