The new Constitution just adopted
by the people of Illinois, by large
majority, is said to be the best in the
Union. 1t is expected to prevent bril-
berry and corruption in the Legislature,
the gerrymandering of election dictricts,
the misrepresentation of public money,
the extension of terms of Office by Leg
islation, and a variety of other things,
with which the citizens of this State
are only too familiar. Illinois is to be
congratulated if this new fundamental
law meets with that success in purify
ing matters that is predicted for it.
II we thought that result could be
reached by a new Constitutional Con-
vention in this State, we should heart
ily favor one.

NEW PAPERs.-New papers are null
tiplying rapidly in Kansas. This is one
of the surest evidences of our rapid
growth and development. This week
we have received two new ones, which
are not only credit to their own locali-
ties but to the State.
The Parker Record, printed at Parker,
Montgomery county, by G. ID. Baker,
formerly connected with the Topeka
Record, and a brother, we believe, of
the old "wheel horse" +. p. Baker, is a
splendidly printed paper. 1t is edited
with more than ordinary ability, as a
perusal of its able editorials will
abundantly prove. Bro. Baker knows
how to run a paper, and there is no use
in predicting success. He tciH succeed.
Maysville Locomotive is the name OF
n large new paper coming to us from
Maysville, Marshall county, Kansas,
printed and edited by our old friend and
co-laborer, p. II. Peters. The LOcomo-
tice is, of course, not only we'll printed
but its matter is lively and spicy.

THE Times says arrangements have
been made with the Chicago and South
western railroad company for the COM
pletion of the bridge at Leavenworth.
The Chicago and Southwestern road
will also be extended from Leavenworth
to a connection with the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe road at Topeka.
II we have a right understanding of the
matter this is to be done at an early
day. This will give Southwestern
Kansas direct connectionwith Chicago
via Leavenworth, and it will do more
for the interests of our metropolis than
anything that has happened for years.
We now say to Leavenworth: "Push
things"

Affairs in Wall street were comparatively quiet
during the morning although gold was extremely
sensitive to cable reports concerning war, before
the formal opening.
Room gold sold at IS to14; recorded transactions,
49,, after which there was advance TO 1885, 4
decline to 49,, and return to 49,
In the afternoon the excitement in the gold room
intense and the fluctuations wide and frequent.
at one time private cable kilograms reported q
panic in the Berlin house and sympathetic decline
at Frankfort. This was Immediately accepted by
the gold room meaning war, and there was a
rise to 49, with enormous transactions. At this
juncture report was received that Leopold had
withdrawn, which caused q tumble to ID, at which
point the decline was arrested. The announcements
from Washington that the Funding bill had been
defeated in the House quieted the market for q
time, but soon the report that the difficulties be-
tween France and Prussia had been aInicably adj
tusted caused the widest excitement and the mar
ket plunged downward under heavy sales Frantic

The adoption of the substitute for
General Banks resolution in the House
OF Representatives virtually indorses
the position of the President, and COM
mits the Republican Party to what is
popularity called an anti Cuban policy.
Theproposition here embodied is briefly
as follows: That no matter what our
sympathies may be or what wrong the
principles of liberty and Justice may
suffer in the struggle now going on in
Cuba, we as people have no right to
interfere further than to secure, in CO.
operation with other Governments, an
observance of those usages of warfare
recognized by civilized nations.

The Topeka Record, n few weeks ago,
suggested that the next Republican
State Convention place in nomination
colorcd man for one of the State Of
fees. We see no objection to this if an
intelligent and capable man can be NOM
mated We are in favor OF doing JUS
tice to all parties. There are some very
able colored men in Kansas-men who
would be credit to any position in
which they might be placed.
