k9~A fellow passed down Ludlow street
yesterday evening, with each arm encirclins
a female The question which he raised over
there was, whether he was prompted by alFec.
tion, pure, unde6ed, and double-rigged, or
whether he was simply ndulgng in an a
greeabe expedient to hold himself up. To
us it looked like a cunning piece Of strategy
to Support the centre and "cover ils move

A U. s. SENATOR ELECTED.


People in this region of country will be
somewhat surprised to learn that eAr Leg
islature have elected a United States
Senator to succeed ]. H. Lane. We believe
they almost universally regarded next win
ter as the proper time for this election to
{ take place. This question was asked the
candidates in this nnnnEv before the cleo

ZOE, and they all took grounds against #
This was the feeling here, and we are Glad

IN the surrounding counties, voted in 40.

ents. Bat it seems that quite large ma

we" OF this matte. We know nothing
~ 'A opinions Of the people who sent
20 Representatives who supported the
measure, but we have either got to say they
are carrying out the wishes of their con-
stituents or that they have been corrupted
We honestly believe that the members were
not bought up,
30 The only law upon this subject is to the
effect that Senator may be elected when
ever the Legislature passes a concurrent res
rolution TO go into an election for that pur-
pose, SO that so far as any law is concerned
it is regarded as aJegal transaction. 1t re-
mains question altogether for the United
States Senate itself to settle. Of course
the curses heaped upon Carney will be nu-
merous and strong. We know that this
measure was opposed by some of his
strongest friends, and we were told that the
Governor did not urge it. The blame must
be laid altogether with the Legislature
The opposition to Lane in that body is very
strong, and it took this shape. We also
have conclusive proof in our mind that
Lane would have attempted the election this
winter had not the thing been impossible.
The game was Matched by him at Washing
ton last winter, and he did not abandon it
until after the Paola fzzle. This we be-
lieve to be true, and as far as the howlings
of his office-holders and newspapers are
concerned, let them "howl'' The pros
pect is not very flattering for them.
We are sorry that this election has taken
place this session, as it viii tend to ex
cite the people and make politics boisterous
and bitter.

DARING MURDER.-The White Cloud
Chief says: On Monday night, 5th ult., a
party of men proceeded o the residence of
Mr.. Coots, residing in Rush Bottom, and
killed him in his own house, by shooting
him down. A report has been started that
he was shot by jawhawkers from Kansas,
but many say that such was not the fact.
Kansas may have much more to answer for,
but the brutal murder of Coots is said to
have been perpetrated by his own neighbors.
We hope that Rosecrans will inaugurate
policy that viii bring midnight assassins to
the gallows.

There was big scare at Topeka, on
Tuesday night. A report was received just
at dusk, which was considered reliable, that
two hundred guerrillas had crossed the line
at Aubury, and that it was expected their
number would be augmented to thousand.
They designed visiting Paola, Olathe, To-
peka and Lawrence. The excitement for a
few hours was intense, and every man, in
GLIDING the visitors of the capital, was arm
ed and put on duty. There proved to be
no foundation whatever for the report, that
we could learn of.
