THE BORDER COUNTIES OF MIS-
SOURI,.

The creation of the Department of Kan
sas leaves the border counties of Missouri
open to the re settlement of guerrillas and
their friends. The orders of Gen. Brown
1.-THE new commander), calling back the
loyal inhabitants, are well understood by
those who know the man and his policy.
If the banished population of the border is
permitted to return (they are all loyal, J
there is no Leace to Kansas. If the Paw
Paw militia cross to guard the line (ss is
contemplated, we may expect to see our
towns sacked and citizens murdered next
summer. We must have a material guar
antee for the safety of Kansas. The only
one we know of is in the possession of the
infested district The counties of Jackson,
Cass and Bates should be held by Kansas
troops, since the only refuge for guerrillas
within seventy or eighty miles of our bor-
der is in the counties named. Those couu-
ties should belong to the Department of
Kansas, and must be, if We are to be pro-
tected at all. The loyal men of that sec
ton all desire it, and Kansas should assist
by all means in defending men of such In,
tegrity of purpose, and at the same time
maintain her own peace.-ConSerOGtiUs.
Just SO, Mr.. Conservative. Before you
oro -our political confreres secured ''sep-
80 De,, Rrtment for Kansas" the Border
Corr,;ss Of Missouri were in the Kansas
District and gafntSOned by Kansas. troops,
the very thing you nov say is necessary to
the peace of the BorderI We see the drift
of This. It is the Conservatives bresk-wa-
ter against possible disasters on the Border
during the coming season. Hereafter all
border troubles are to be charged not upon
tie military administration of AFFAIRS as
heretofore, but to the circumstance that III
two sides of the Border are in different De-
psrtments-a result which the creation OF
the Department Of Kansas brought about.
We sincerely hope that there may be peace
on the Border uuder Gen. Curtis admins
tration. He shall h&ve OUT cordial support
to this end. But if trouble comes to Kan
sas as the effect of this creation Of the De-
partmsnt of Kansas for political purposes
we shall do our part to see that the FSspon-
sibility falls where it belongs. No such
dodge as the above from the Conservative
will avail

Carney and his bought-up newspape rs
have been saying for months past that he,
Tom Carney, was protecting the border by
money paid out of his own pocket. The
Leavenworth Times (owned by Carney has
said this, the Lawrence Journal. alias To-
peka Tribune (owned by Carney) has said
this, the Emporia News (owned BY Carney
has said this-and so on with all the mer-
cenary and miscreant press.
We take the above extract from recent
number of the Leavenworh Conservative
What we have published in the News in
relation to the protection of the border by
the Governor, has been published as part
of the current news of the day, and our re-
collection is that an article on the subject
published by US, was clipped from the Con-
sentative itself The scribbler probably
the Immaculate D. w. himself-who wrote
the foregoing extract asserts, as will be OBJ
served, that the Emporia News is owned by
Gov. Carney, Z" though deep, perchance, the
villain lied -, when he said so, and he knew
it. That the News is owned or controlled,
or in any way influenced, by any one ez-
cept ourselves, is simply untrue. The peO-
pie in this community support paper and
take pride in so doing. This relieves US
from the necessity of levying black mail in
order to sustain a sickly existence, as some
papers we wot of are forced TO do. When
ever you desire this question brought up
again Just mention it.

tenths of the producers be put in the field,

language as the above is pregnant with
