OLD SErTLERs.-The old settlers
about here seem to think that the east
ern excursion which was gotten up for
their especial benefit was badly man
aged in some way. 1t was like hold
ing out something good for a person to
grab at, and just as the good thing was
about to be seized, it was pulled away.
After arrangements were made no time
was given for persons to get ready for
the trip. Certificates were sent down
here which would entitle the holders to
tickets, only about four or five days be-
fore the excursion was to start, so that
when the announcement was made in
the News persons had to drop every
thing and run for dear life to catch the
train. Few people were prepared to
go cast for a month on one or two days
notice. People south and west of this
had no show at all. No instructions
were sent with the certificates to amount
to anything. In fact the management
of the whole thing looked as though
the fewer that went the better the get
ters-up would be pleased. Several per-
sons have been in our Office this week,
and others sent in, to get certificates,
and were much disappointed when they
were told that the time had passed
that the train had left on the 22d, and
tickets were not good except on that
train. At least two weeks notice
should have been given if the eIcur-
sion was for the benefit of old settlers,
as 1t pretended to be. If it was gotten
up for elbow" for select few, it was
run all right.

what has been DONE" Exactly. The
trouble Is that there has been too much
"disappEuval" by the people to suit the
democracy, and we fear that in its pres
ent demoraliSed condition the proposed
convention could not do much that
would meet with the appreciation of the
masses. But by all means let Daniel
have his convention. It will serve to
stir up the bile in the Democratic stom-
ach, and cannot possibly harm anybody.
lit viii "enthuse" new life in the Dem
ocracy, as Daniel predicts, and give us
something to do next summer, we
should DO pleased. We don't want it
all one way by any means. If the con-
vention is held we trust the principles"
enunciated will "guide" the Democracy
better in the future than those of the
past have. We should think that Dan
iel and all live Democrats would want
as little az possible of the principles that
have guided" them in the past. ''The
past" is what ails the Democratic party,
but it seems its leaders will never find
that out, little more of such principles
and such "guiding" as the Democracy
have had in ''the past" and "the jig is
up" forever.

THE KANSAS PARKER. =


We learn from the November num-
Der that this valuable Magazine will be
issued twice month after the first of
January. It will be printed on fine
tinted book paper, in the highest style
of typography. We are glad the Far
nler has met with such success as to en-
able it to take this step forward. 1t is
one of the very best agricultural papers
in the. country. Every Kansan may
Justly feel proud of it. It is a faithful
representative of the progressive spirit
of the State. 1t is not edited exclusive
~ with scissors, as too many of our ag-
ricultural papers ara. There is much
intelligent industry in its pages, and
about every line in it is not only very
readable, but imparts some useful infor-
nation on the various subjects within
the range of a farm paper. Kansas can
boast of as good an agricultural journal
0s the best of the states. The money
heretofore sent east for agricultural pa
pers should be kept at home to build up
our own Kansas Farmer. For 1872 we
can furnish TIE News and the Kans as
Farmer twice a month for So.

SErTLED.-Mrs. OLesry's cow has
filed large space in newspaper and
Geographic literature for some weeks.
The responsibility of the Chicago fire
was well nigh fastened upon the poor
"baste," when an extra effort was made
to relieve her of the blame of that con-
hagration. The indignant Mrs. O'Leary
was interviewed" by a reporter, and
she most stoutly denied that her cow
had anything to do with starting the
fire. But alas for her reputation for
veracityi new effort has been made
to provo the cow guilty. That digni-
fed body, the fire commissioners of
Chicago. have been in session, and be-
fore them it was ascertained beyond
the possibility of doubt, that the afore-
said cow did give the fatal kick. 1t is
but proper. to state, however, that the
commisaion considerately allowed that
Mrs. O'Learv had "no more RESPONSE
bility in the matter than what was af-
forded by her ownership in the cow"
The worst feature of this investigation
is that a miserable fiddler named Nc
Laughlin Is proven to be as much to
blame as the cow. He was having q
good time at his home, and wishing TO
cook some oysters in the highest style
of the culinary art for his social friends,
he undertook to steal the milk from
Mrs. O1eary's cow. Becoming indig-
nant at this attempt to pilfer her milk
the COW aimed fair blow at McLaugh.
lin, which unfortunately missed him
and struck the, lamp which the "spal.
peen" had near. by, and that's the way
the fire started. We hope this settles
the question.

HORRIBLE TALK.

There appears to have been consid-
cradle excitement over the murder of
Mr.. Floyd in the buffalo regions, an &C.
count of which we copied from the
Aarkaneas City IrGVeIer last week.
There is the usual bluster about exter-
minating the Indians, etc. Prof II. B.
Norton writes the following sensible
comments about the matter to the 1Fau-
eIer of last week. There ought to be a
little more of the spirit of this article
manifested toward the Indians:
tsThe murder was probably commit
ted either by a scouting party Of the
Big Hill Osages, or by the Cheyennes.
Decapitation is the Usage sign of salts
fed revenge but it is also used by the
Cheyennes, and might be the means of
concealment adopted by whites seeking
to throw the blame upon the Indians.
The fact that the wagon had been hauled
off by oxen was singular, complicating
the problem.
The probability is that the murder
was committed by Indians. However,
there is no good reason for the horrible
talk of determination which is so COM
mon. Twenty murders have probably
been committed during the past year by
whites on this trail between Wichita
and the Red River, without exciting
half the comment which this case has
elected.
It should be borne in mind that white
buffalo hunters are trespassers upon the
Indian lands, regarded by them much
as we look upon cattle thieves. An I'M
precedented number of whites have
been out on the plains this fall, driving
the huffal0 far tn the west and eX-
ceedingly wasteful of them in their
style of hunting, and this has stirred
up much anger among the Indians.
1t should also be borne in mind that
as great difference exists in the chsrac-
ter of Indians as among whites. The
great mass of Indians are no more re-
sponsible for the acts of few than we
are for deeds of Quimby or Msdli-
colt" ..r--

THE NEW COLLECTOR AT NEW YORK

The Chicago Post says: general
Chester A. Arthur is undoubtedly, the
best person the President could have Sc
lected at this time. He has distinguish
ed himself as an earnest Republican, an
enthusiastic supporter of the Govern
ment, man of the strictest honor and
integrity, and citizen whom all par
ties respect. Several times since the
Inauguration of Gen. Grant, Gen. Ar
thur has been recommended by his frieds
to honorable and responsible places.
He was widely talked of for Sub-Treas-
urer at the time Judge Folger succeed
ed Gen. Butterfeld, and again when
Mr.. Hillhouse went in. This he an
nounced he could not accept, even though
it was offered. The new Collector is
very active among the business men of
New York; he is prominent as Secre-
tary of the Third Avenue Railroad
Company, but has no interest that can
possibly conflict with the duties of his
office Had such existed, he never
would have accepted the place. Gen.
Arthur is the author of the bill which
passed Congress in 1870, providing for
the enforcement of the Fifteenth Amend
ment, and for the suppression of re-
peating and other frauds at the Con-
gressional elections-particularly in
New York. No man has ever
said aught against Gen. Arthur; he will
take honor and ability to the perform
ance of his duties, and will greatly
strengthen the administration every

The students of Harvard have a queer
idea of fun, and their efforts to produce
it are singularly idiotic as well as decid-
eddy wicked. With an ambition to be
original, and without any great stock Of
Originality ON which to draw, they have
abandoned all the old stereotyped col
lege pranks and taken to the amuse-
ment of blowing up buildings in which
unsuspecting people are sleeping. Their
exploits in this direction last year were
more destructive than brilliant, and
their attempt recently made to blow up
the New Holyoke House with nitro
glycerine, has resulted In the arrest OF q

"A dispatch from Milwaukee says
Captain a j. Longworthy, agent for
the Milwaukee relief committee, has
just returned from a visit to the burnt
district of the northwest, where he has
been to investigate certain reports of
fraud and misappropriation, all of which
he found to be false, and started by I'M
scrupulous parties who had not suffered
by the fire, but who had applied for aid
and been refused. The captain found
everything working well at all the dis
tributing points, where much has been
done and great deal is yet to be done.
The relief committee, in junction with
the government, are now directing
their attention to providing seed for
the spring, and circular will soon be
issued on this point. In travelling over
the blackened wilderness, Captain Long
worthy gathered many interesting ac-
counts of the great tornado, and the

HARK FROM THE 1oNBs.-This week
we hear a genuine but feeble voice from
the. Democratic grave yard. 1t is the
only sound sWs have heard from that
bourne for several weeks, which SEEM

and courage. 1t proceeds from the pen
of the Hon. Daniel Webster VOORHEES,,
the great Hoosier Democrats orator
and politician. Daniel is in favor of
making one more desperate effort to re-
cover from the widespread defeat" of
the late elections. He "keenly appreci-
ates the importance of an authoritative
expression of the principles which are
to guide US in the future as in thepast,"
and for the purpose of obtaining this
expression Dan wants q Democratic
National convention called at some
central point in the West" he don't
want to wait till the time for the con-
vention to meet next season. If the
matter is delayed till that time he seems
to fear that all the Democrats will have
