n We like to endorse man with soul, wher-
ever we find him, and in whatever party. DAVE
Holt, Treasurer of Richardson County, Nebraska,
fills the bill in one particular, at least. The De
linquent Tax List is about to be published. The
pubisher of the Rulo Register, in order to prevent
q competing newspaper making anything ont of
it, put in bid to publish it for nothing; but
Holt gave it to the Falls City Journal, at legal
rates. That is the way to do it. We do not care
Q continental for the sweet-scented quarrel going
on between the two papers; but when any man
calling himself printer undertakes to ruin his
own trade to spite competitor, We like to see
them come HOLr over him.

The Council Grove Democrat is informed, that

A REMINIsCENCE.-The Topeka Record gives a
history of JIM. LANES proposed great Southern
Expedition, in 1861, designed to take possession
of the Indian Territory and Texas, form three or
four new States, and to colonize Kansas men in
them, to be chosen Congressman and Senator'S.
The Record is severe upon the fogyism of Gen.
HUNTER, who knocked the scheme in head. That
being the case, the country is far more indebted
to Gen. HUNTER than it has been aware Of. fhe
nipped in the bud the aspirations of the band
of shystep who were to follow LANE South, he
did an act for which the country should be CRATE
full. Senator MCDONALD and Tom Bowen, of Ar
kansas, Secretary HEATH, of New Mexico, ct cets.a,
are fine specimens of Lanes hangers-on placed
in responsible Offices.

HIS HEAD LocATED-Judge WEBB, of one Of
the Southern Kansas District Courts, lately refns
ed to allow a detective to testify, as he did not
consider the evidence of professional liar worth
anything The Manhattan NafioRalist wants to
know what authority the Judge has for calling
them professional liars, rejecting their testimo-
ny. Authority not, if the detective in question
was anything like the stripe Of scallawags thieves
and cut-throats that over1an Kansas, during the
war, committing outrages under tle authority Of
detective papers, Judge wEBB did right in reject
ing his testimony. They are not fit to associate
with respectable men, o1to testify against CON-
mon felOn.

Press sAssoCIATIoS.-The Southern Kansas pa
pers are proposing meeting of the SAFE Press
Association at some point in Southern Kansas, du-
ring the present season. Now is proper time to
ask: What is the use Of such meetings, or Of
State Press Association A portion of the pub
fishers meet together, and pledge each other to
maintain regular rates for work. Then, some
fellows who do not attend, or who are imported
for the purpose of publishing papers in somebody's
interest, 90 to undermining the prices, in order to
secure the public printing, and enable them to
exc ont precarious existence. The members Of
the Association simply resolve themselves out Of
public work, or break their pledge. Forour part,
we are resolved to fight these rats with rat med
icine, until they get sick of their own game. =
