As for ourselves, we confess we cannot
appreciate the force of his logic. For
example, we do not see why the COM
panions of the man in the dark, with
the pint bottle, might not just as well
follow him into the grog-shop and de-
YOUR with him just as much rum as
was consumed in the dark.
Our correspondents plan for promot-
ing the temperance cause, seems to us a
very strange one. 1t is like undertake
ing TO stop the flow of a river by in
creasing the volume of its current, or
to stay murder by multiplying murder
GUS deeds. His idea is that we must
put this thing in its very worst light in
order to become sufficiently alive to the
magnitude of its evil in order to go to
work in dead earnest to eradicate it.
If boy is sick and an insufficient inter
est is manifested with regard to his
dangers, he should be strangled'in order
to excite alarm. But might not the
poor little fellow die from actual suffo-
cation, or at least from the effects of
the strangling process?
Let all good citizens set their faces
sernly, firmly, and earnestly against
any measure that, instead of diminish
ing the sale of whiskey, will only fur
nish increased facilities for the traffic,
blighten with darker shadows the
homes of many of our citizens, and
drive away from us only a larger num-
Der of those whose permanent citizen
ship in Emporia we desire most. Let
us go to work to diminish intemperance
instead of throwing out to it facilities
for stronger and wider foothold.

TEXAN CATTLE.

JUNCTION CRY, KAN, Feb. 8, 1870.
EDITOR NEWS: In your issue of the
4th inst. you ask "are Texan cattle real
ly infected with Spanish Fever" Being q
native ofTexas, and resident for TWEEN
ty-five years, feel competent to answer
the question. Il reply, no. There is no
such thing as Spanish Fever in Texas
cattle, or the "Texas cattle fever" as it
is generally called here. The idea is
absurd, ridiculous and only those who
fear competition put forth such objec-
tions.
1 have no interest in your town, but
will give you few figures as proof OF
the advantage of the Texas cattle trade.
About 200, 600 head of Texas cattle reach
ed Abiline and vicinity last summer.
OF that number, about 150, 600 head were
shipped east 10000 driven to Omaha and
the west, and 10000 are being wintered
hereabouts. Just think, what an inn
mense trade this must necessarily bring
to the country. In Abiline last sum-
mcr, $4,000 worth of goods were sold
to Texans alone. While at this place,
at least $4,000 worth was sold. Add
the sales of Salina, Ellsworth and other
points, and they will amount to $500
which is no small thing.
If 1 had time, would say more in
behalf of the Texas cattle trade. But
enough for the present. d.

MIR. KALLOCH,s LECTURE.

The lecture OH Saturday evening of
last week was a success in every partic-
ular. A crowded house, a discourse
full OF thought, beautiful in diction, al
most faultless in delivery, ana eloquent
in everything, there was the utmost sat
isfaction manifested. The lecturer hav-
ing for his theme "Stren9th from An
tugonim," by numerous illustrations
from Nature, the Bible and Life, show
ed how n man, Mt first q weakling, be-
came developed into giant of intel
lectual and moral strength by suffering,
by opposition, by abuse, or by some
other antagonistic force. The illustra-
lions were most apt and the argument
= most conclusive. The young men OF
his audience must have gone from the
lecture room much more strongly forth
lied in the resolution to battle manfully
with difficulties come they i'm whatever
shape fate may send them.
The Emporia Library Association has
much cause for graduation. Every
movement that has thus far been made
has proved an onward step toward the
permanent success of this institution
Four lectures have been given, each @
success financially and as being well re
ceived by the people.
Efforts are being made to collect to
gether first-rate library. Donations o.
books by citizens are being made in {
generous way. And right here let Us
say, let every citizen look over his Ii
brary and select therefrom q good bool
or two and bring to /. E. Perley as {
contribution to the library of the Asso
citation. The donation will be no grea'
sacrifice TO yourself, while it will be
thankfully received by the Association
1t will not be an absolute loss to you
rs whatever its contents are they will
be rs accessible to you as before.
We do not see why we may not now
have one or two lectures by rs many o
our townsmen. We have no doubt tina
there are quite good many of our citi
zens who could read or recite us just q
instructive and perhaps just as enter
tanning lectures as any of the four tina
have been given. If thought advisable
n smaller admittance fee might b.
charged. Whatever is obtained in thi
way would be clear profit. What d.
the lecture committee say?

THE TEMPERANCE QUESTION.

Lying on our desk is communica-
ton intended for publication whose
author takes grounds in favor of licens-
ing saloons for the sale of whisky in
Emporia. We intended TO give it a
place in our columns in order that both
sides might have hearing, but owing
10 the unexpected length of our Tope-
ka letter, it is necessarily crowded out.
However, in justice to those who en-
terrain a different view from that put
forth in two or three other communica-
tions that have lately appeared in THE
News, upon the same subject we here
with present as succinctly as we are
able the arguments for the other side as
set forth in the article before us:
In the first place our correspondent
maintains that saloons would have the
wholesome effect of diminishing in-
stead of increasing the sale of liquor.
His argument is this: A man who
wants merely drink of whisky is
compelled, in obedience to the customs
and regulations by which druggists
allow themselves to be governed and
from which they do not allow them
selves to deviate, TO buy pint, where
as half gill would have supplied his
needs. Having obtained his pint duly
bottled, he steals out in the dark, calls
TO him his alcoholic friends, who hav-
ing found some hidden recess, demon
like, devour with him the soul-destroy-
ing liquid.
Now had a saloon thrown open to
him its inviting door he would have
stepped in, purchased his half gill
drank it, and gone contented to his
home. The conclusion is-although
our correspondent does not draw it
that the establishment of saloons would
diminish The sale of whisky in Empo.
ria in the ratio of eight to one, or in
other words eight gallons are now
consumed where one would be dispos.
ed OF If we had saloons
End. Saloons will diminish the con
snmers, which is simply corollary de
duced from his first proposition.
Sd. Saloons are a living temperance
lecture, admonitory in their nature.
4th. Saloons would arouse the antag
onism of all temperance people an'
thew would set themselves earnestly a
work to stop the sale of rum
These are the points which our cor
respondent makes, and we give them t.
the public for what they are worth

Why does not Emporia have a hearse /?
Why she has not had one heretofore
may be plausibly answered by stating
the fact that there have been so few
deaths in our midst that the necessity
for one has not been very urgently felt.
But we need one now and need 1t right
away. In such town as ours, with a
population of nearly $500 souls, aug
mented by daily accessions, there must
be, I'm the natural order of things an oc-
casional death, and 1t is severe rehec-
ton upon our rcputationfor enterprise
in most respects well deserved-that we
allow our dead to be borne to their fl
nal resting place in a vehicle so unfit, SO
lily adapted to the purpose. Let us
have hearse at once.
Our graveyard too needs attention.
For n town of the size and Importance
of ours TO have no other place to inter
our dead than to scatter them over some
portion of our wild, open, bleak prair-
ie is, to say the least, shameful.
We are making efforts to become q
city of the second class. Let us go to
work at once TO fence our graveyard,
lay out avenues, and give it some sort
of decent appearance.

Rev. N. A. Walker, of the Disciples
church, visited Kansas a few months
since and remained several weeks in
Emporia, during which time our citi-
zens will remember he preached some
admirable discourses on christian
union. He writes back a letter to the
Cincinnati american Christian RecieIc,
from which we make the following ex-
tract:
Kansas is one of the most beautiful
countries / ever saw. Its population is
intelligent, earnest, active, and, for its
opportunity, piOHs. There are but few
"fogies- to be found in the whole State.
Religion in its purity, temperance, edu-
cation, equal rights, political and relig-
ious, without distinction of color or
sex, and the highest order of public
worship are bound to triumph in Kan
sas. Such noble men as / met in Kan
sas seem to be the select of the nation.
Emporia seems to be the emporium OF
all. Its editors, its bar, its officials, its
business men, ministry and churches
are the highest order of men and wo-
men who occupy all the high points OF
reform. Not drinking saloon in it.
An ordinary temperance lecture is in
good demand at S25.
