JgDaE L. D. BAILEy.-Judge Bailey is
looming up prominently as q candidate
for the United States Senate, and bids
fair to start out with the support Of the
Nsosho Valley. with some strength from
other localities. Judge Bailey would
make Senator Of whom Kansas would
have no occasion to feel ashamed. He
is man Of iue ability, of unexceptiona-
bic moral character. and OF that dignified

much alike-only the Judge is little in

A RIVER ROUTE FOR THE RAILROAD j.
A. Hopkins. Esq. Chief Engineer Platte
Country R. R, was in town on Saturday
last. having just made an examination OF
the Bottom ronte from st. Joseph to
Forest City. with view of sscertaining
whether or not this would be shorter
and more practical location for the Rail-
road than the one already graded from
Savannah. He reports the distance by
this route. from St. Joseph to Forest City.
twenty EIGHT miles, while the distance by
the other route is ,hirty.eight miles
Mr.. Hopkins considers this route the
most feasible one yet considered. not only
on account Of the distance saved but the
saving in the cost Of construction. and the
availability of the road after built for the
heavy business which must necessarily be
done on it. The road bed, he thinks,
would be measurably better. and its
grades and curves being fewer compared
with the bill route. would ebviste a great
obstacle to running heavy trains aud max
ing good time.-HoN County Sentinel.
