REPUBHSREH.

At the request Of several Of his friends
We republish, upon the outside Of this
paper, Capt. N. Wiley's Texas cores
pondence. While we are at all times 10th
to occupy the readers allotted space BY
publishing articles the second time, we
feel that we are warranted in giving the
Captains correspondence space again
alone on account Of the racy reading il
affords. 1t shall be seldom, we assure
our readers, that they will be troubled
by republications of reading matter.
The Saline County journal. [volume] (Salina, Kan.) 1871-1893, 1871-09-21


The earnest consideration of every
voter Of Saline county is directed to the
three railroad propositions published in
our advertising columns. And We c.
pecially petition al not TO jump to the
conclusion that some immense burden is
sought to Be imposed upon the county.
People are apt to fear increase OF taxes,
and it is proper they should be, but when
the construction Of IN enterprise for the
advancement Of the country and the ben
eft and accommodation Of the people is
aimed at it is their duty to look well into
the merits and dement's involved in oil
the issues touching the case IN hand. If
the wise Judgment the calm calculation
Of people, and not theft hasty conclu-
sions, alone control them, then we are
DESTROYS of leaving all issues with them,
satisfied that they will discriminate in
favor Of what is best for ALL.
But these propositions need to b talk
ed up to . nicely. They are new to the
people and the thirty days that are to
intervene to election day is none too long
for mature consideration. Above all
let all discussion be based upon facts and
figures, and clear the way Of prejudices
jealousies and unwarranted assertions.
The county board acted Wisely in sub
hitting the propositions at day previ
GUS to our county election. Politics
should in no wise be connected with them
They partake Of too vital o part of the
people to be hamperei by party aspcr;
sions and personal strife; and We pro
pose that any person seeking his ad
vancement to Office through the medium
of advocacy or denunc,ation Of the prop
ositions shall be irretrievably sunk. Lei
politics stand upon its own foundation
and the propositions upon theirs. If Z
man comes to You, farmer and fellow
voter, and talks railroad to you and
turns round and asks you to support him
to Office, place HIM in the category o.
those who are selfish enough to care for
selfsggrandisement only and who wou:;s
cell his birth right for an Office, and shur
him like you would q contagion. Ou'
with ss;acn men, be they friends or foes
This advice may be uncalled for, and VI
hope so, but as an election is close a. hant
and as politics m.S run wild, It is t'me'!
that It shall be resolved into . purpos'
to meet emergencies.
| Our election is that the proposition
should receive the sanction Of every MAJ
in Saline county. We have an opportu
nifty that We may never have again. AL
main lines of railway in Kansas will b
built At no distant day, and the count.
that does not strike for it's share mus
accept back seat in commercial impor
lance and growth.
