RAILROAD RING.

Mr.. Sidney Clark and his friends
have, from the first opening of the cam
paign, last summer, constantly howled
that the Railroads were forming q
''ring" against the best interests of the
people-that is in opposition to his cleo
ton to Congress. His organs and claq-
ers are still bowling "railroad rings :"
the railroads are going to elect weak
man that they can run, etc. Now we
hope the people and their representa-
tives will not be fooled by this old
demagOgical cry. 1t is the regular
demagogue game to array one interest
against another, to make political capt.
tai from. What are the facts There are
more of the Kansas railroads to-day in
favor of the election of Sidney Clarke
to the Senate than are in favor of any
other man. The Joy interests for him.
The principal men in the L. L. & G.. r.
r. are for him. The Central Branch
interest is for him, and we hear from
reliable authority that the Stevens in
terest is for him. Now what man is
there on the track for the Senate that
can muster half the army of railroad
influence he can. The fact is, Sidney
belongs to Joy as much as ever one
man belonged to another, else why
did he not do something for the Chero-
kee settlers? Mr.. Clark had more rail-
road votes in the State Convention last
September than any man in it. We are
thoroughly Disguised with the cry of
railroad ring" by Clarke, when he
is the only man we know of who is try
ing to form such a ring.

KANSAS AHEAD,

A correspondent of the Prairie Far.
mer writing from Anderson county,
disagrees with correspondent of the
American Agricultural from Kansas
who claims that Kansas crops are light,
and corn, oats, and potatoes almost en-
tire failures. The Anderson county
man is justly outraged at such repre-
sensations, and writes the Farmer as
follows:
''Wheat is an average crop in quanti-
ty and is superior in quality, with a
larger average than last year, and sells
at from seventy-five to ninety cents per
bushel. Oats short but well filled, and
as the average was large, there is a
large amount of oats in the state SELL
ing from twenty-five to thirty cents per
bushel. Corn was cut short to some
extent by the dry weather in May and
June. Yet there is an average crop,
and many fields will produce from fifty
to seventy-ffVe bushels per acre, and it
is coming into market at thirty-ive to
forty cents per bushel. There is con-
siderable old corn yet in the country
the average was much larger than last
year and will be greatly increased the
coming year. Potatoes, both Irish and
sweet. are very large and yield well, so
much so that the prices are very low.
Turnips are enormous in size, and a
good crop generally, and few men fail
ed to raise them so large that they sell
by dozens instead of bushels-worth
twenty cents per dozen or bushel. Cat
tie and hogs command good price
and to take it all around, think Kan
sas cannot be considered behind any of
the older states, and is far in advance of
some so far as crops are concerned, and
as for stock, no other country can equal
it. l was raised on an Illinois farm,
and think am posted in regard to these
matters,o

BEER, BRICKS, AND BUILDINGS.
Mr.. Taylor of Birmingham, the foun
l., g Io.,l

Mr.. Taylor of Birmingham, the foun-
der of freehold land societies says:
persuade man to keep sober. tell
him that with every quart he consumes
twenty-five bricks. l show him how,
in the course of two years, at one quart
day, he swallows as many bricks as
would make q nice cottage. My old
grandfather died when nearly q hun
dred years old. He lived in one house
nearly eight years, and at the time of
his death, he had not so much as brick
or chimney-pot, although he had paid
rent all his life. Now, had he belonged
to a building society, his grandson
might have been better off than he is.
have said that quart of ale is equal
to twenty-five brick, and a paper of to-
bacco is the mortar to lay them with.
There they are, the twenty-five bricks
and the mortar going from many a
mans pocket over the public house
counter every day. Such men will
never be freebolders. In Birmingham
we have bought freehold land at the
rate of Is Cd. per yard-two quarts of
ale and q paper Of tobacco exactly.
remember some time ago telling the
coal-heavers and the limestone quarry
men, in a meeting at Dudley, that every
quart of ale was equal to half yard of
| freehold land. One man got up at the
far end of the room and said, "What is
that You say, mister?" replied, why,
my dear fellow, with every quart of ale
you drink you swallow half yard OF
land Well, them said he, 4 have
swallowed many field in my time
Upon a calculation. we find that the
loss of money alone to man spending
Cd. a day in drink "a piat of ale for in
stance) amounts, at the end of twenty
seven years with compound interest at
five per cent? to the large and hand
some sum of five hundred and nine
pounds, sufficient to buy half a million
of bricks, which would build, say TWEEN
| ty-one houses; or, at one shilling and a
| penny per square yard, it would pur-
chase an estate of two acres of building
ground, or land enough for forty re-
spectacle houses and gardens; or it
would purchase three good houses all
complete.
Workingmenl is there not sone in
ducement here to leave off drinking
Remember that in the above calculation
there is nothing whatever put down for
loss of time and health; this would
amount to far more than the actual cost
of the drink.

and are ready for market as soon as the
wool can be clipped. Usually this trade
| is inaugurated by the first of April,
sometimes in March. The feeders dur
| ing February and March, are generally
at the sales of those months, meet the
shippers and contract for their stock,
agreeing on a time and place of deliv-
cry. During the months of June, July
and August, those who are engaged in
wool growing meet the buyers at these
sales, whereby concert of action is OBJ
tanned prices are agreed on; sacks are
taken out and thus this most import
ant business is satisfactorily carried on
in few hours.
The farmer and the farm hand meet
here during the spring monthly sales,
the first to engage, the latter to make
contract for his summer work; each
readily ascertains what his neighbors
and friends are paying, and what those
desiring to engage are receiving, and
thus standard of prices is more read
lily established than under the old plan.
Contracts for the delivery of grain-of
wheat, corn, oats, &c.-are also made
between the grower and warehouseman
or feeder; goods are purchased; taxes
paid deeds are recorded; transfers of
land made; and during the fall and
winter months, nearly all the fattened
hogs are sold for immediate or future
delivery. The examination and pur-
chase of agricultural machines, reapers
and mowers, plows, harrows, and plan
tiers, are usually made on these ''sale
days" The manufacturers send their
wares, and the husbandmen have an
opportunity for comparison of the diff
ferent implements, and the benefit of
the ideas and experience of their neigh
bors who may have previously purchas-
ed, thereby gaining a much more intel
ligent idea of the merits or defects of
machinery than could otherwise be OBJ
tained.-Department Of Agrtcultatre Re

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.
The Opening Of the Winter Term,

The winter term of this useful State
educational institution opened on Mon
day the I'd inst, under very favorable
auspices. The attendance is large, one
hundred and thirty students being in
daily attendance. The need of addition
al room is severely felt. Many of the
classes are too large for the recitation
rooms. Over twenty students from
abroad were deferred from coming this
term, fearing that they could not be ad-
mitted.
For the last three terms the Faculty
have been steadily raising the standard
of qualification for admission and con-
tinued attendance in the several classes.
The discipline of the school is so strict
that unworthy pupils are speedily weed
ed out. As result of pursuing this
policy, the school presents to-day, per-
haps, the finest body of students gath
cred in any institution in the State.
There is more maturity of mind than
formerly, more evidences of high state
of culture.
All in all, the Normal School is in a
more prosperous condition than ever
before. 1t is an honor to the advanced
educational opinion of the State. We
trust that it may receive from the Legis-
lature this winter the aid and encour-
agement which its merits so richly de-
serve

proper to look into the manner in
which the business has been conducted.
Bonds have been made ont, signed and
delivered over to certain Il. r. CeDipa-
mics, according to real or imaginary
contracts, for which the people voted.
Where are they, Messrs. Commission
ment to compel citizen against his
ers? 1t is time to enquire, also, wheth-
er official custodians of the eounty's in
terests, the county Commissioners and
Attorney, saw that those contracts were
fulfilled, in letter and spirit, when they
proceeded to put the golden letters OF
100000 upon the people of the county.
And when the people undertake to
investigate all of these important ques-
lions, it would seem the dictates of COM
mon sense, that they should not put the
men, whose actions are to be investiga-
ted, upon the investigating committee.
If any body played into the hands of
the Rail Road Companies, it would be
better not to employ the men, who
must have done it, to expose them
selves, by showing to the world where
in they were lacking, either in judg-
ment, honesty or legal knowledge.
Even if they should, for their county's
good-Gnd a consideration Of three or
four thousand dollars attorney .feeS-be
willing to perform this humiliating
task of pointing out their own er-
rors, we could not find it in our hearts
to be so cruel as to exact it of them
we would employ other attorney, to at
tend to the business.
Citizens, bow your necks meekIy to
the yoke and pay your taxes, or act like
wise men in attempting to defend your
legal rights. CITIZEN.

RAILROAD TAXES.

Much has been said in regard to the
heavy taxes levied upon the people this
year and when it comes to paying four
per cent. upon the valuation of proper
ty, it is no wonder that there should be
squirming. 1t is high time they should
look where all the money goes. They
want improvements and are willing to
pay for them. The masses are not
churlish and dishonest; they are will
ing to vote and pay for what is neces-
sary to advance the general good; but
they are not, and should not be willing
to silently see their honest, hard earn
ings worse than squandered to increase
the opulence of dishonest politicians
and capitalists. Hence the present de-
termination of certain parties in the
county to look into the legality of GER
tain railroad transactions that have ia
ken place within the county, that in
volve the amount of 100000, with in.
terst, to be paid within the next thirty
years in taxes. We have a constitu.
ton, and it is right that it should bt
maintained in its integrity, and that ev.
cry citizen should claim the protection
for himself which it guarantees hence
the justice of inquiring whether there
is any power conferred by that instru
consent to become stakeholder in pri
vate companies. If there is no sucl
power granted, it is time the people
should stand for their rights, and throw
off the yoke that has been put upoI
their necks, even though the majority
may have consented to it.
Then, even lift be right and constitu
tional to tax the people to pay for rail
road stock, the purchase of which the!
opposed with all their legal power, it il

laria. No form of Intermittent or Remittent
Fever can resistit. Quotidian, Tertian, Ruar-
tian, and Twenty-one day Chills are obliged

cies of Marsh or Swamp Fever. 1t is the COM
plete master of Brow Ague, Periodical Head
ache, Intermittent Neuralgia, Splenalgis or
Pain in the Side, and of every variety and
modification of Intermittent and Bilious
Fever.
Nor does this medicine resemble any other
of the thousand compounds advertised for
these affections. It is the pure distillation
from the most costly varieties of Cinchona
bark, and is in itself pharmaceutical triumph,
q therapentical wonder. 1t at once checks the
Chills and restores the blood to its proper con-
sistency, thereby Graduating all traces Of this

Are you suffering from costiveuess or IA
need of an efficient purgatiTss Edward Will
der's Family Pills are a vegetable tonic and
invigorant of uncommon excellence. For
constipation and biliousness they are certain
remedy. BY their action they both revive and
refresh the overloaded system. Nor is this
all. There is nothing in their composition
which is not vegetable. They are potent for
good among the strong and robust. They are
the one aperient or laxative needed by the del
icate and weakly. The liver, the great secre-
tive gland of the body, determines both the
purity of the blood and the condition of the
bowels. These pills contain herbs, gums,
roots, and barks, every one of which is cele-
brated as an antibilIous remedy, and which, if
there be single asceFtained fact in medicine,
constitute the most genial and perfectly salts
factory purgative yet discovered. They do
nor rasp or injure. They clean out the de-
PRAYED and vitiated secretiens Of the alimen-
tary canal. They stimulate and persuade the
liver. They tone the stomach, and through il
the brain and nerves. They do not irritate-
they restore. In all the Phlegmasia, Rheum-
atism, Eryapelas, Vertigo, Dizziness, Inflam-
nation of the Brain, Liver, Kidneys, and
Bladder, and in every other affection in which
purgatiye is desirable, these pills are beyond
all peradventure a true panaeea. Hence use
none other, as they can do you no harm, and
their effects are invariably beneficial.

All medical men agree that Sarsaparilia is
the most efficient of all the alternatives derived
from the vegetable kingdom, and the Iodide OF
Potassium the most powerful of all those OBJ
tanned from the mineral world, and all who
have had any large chemical experience are
satisfied that either of these substances IN
creases and intensifes the power of the other.
The Potash augments the activity of the Sars-
aparilla, and this in its turn adds immensely
to the virtues of the Potash. Together. in the
combination of Edward Wilder's Sarsaparilla
and Potash, they constitute the most PO,cerful
Blood Purifier and Constitutional Alterative
ever used. sNo disease or affection which de-
ponds on impurity of the blood can resist its
action. Such is the confidence in it that 4 cure
is guaranteed in every case where the direc-
tons are followed, in any of the following
diseases: Scrofula in all its multitudinous
forms, Chronic Rheumatism, CutaneOus Alice
tons, Syphilis or Veneral Disease. Scrofulous
Sore Eyes, Glandular Swellings of the Neck or
elsewhere, letter, Weeping Sore Leg, Ulcers
of every kind, Pimples on the Face, Ring
worm, Seald Head, Falling OF the Hair or Al
lopecia, White Swelling, Ague Cake, Chronic
Erysipelas, Dropsy, &c. This medicine has
effected the most wonderful cures. So much
so, that now the most eminent physicians in
the world are prescribing it in their daily
practice. They know its worth. Now is the
season of the year when your system requires
an Alternative medicine. Then get this at once.

By process recently discovered, have been
able to obtain from the bark Of the Wild Cher
~ (techically the PrunuS Virginiani) an
extract which has been pronounced by the
Pharmaceutical Society of London and Berlin
to possess more of the virtues of this invalua-
BILE tree than any other ever presented to
them. One single teaspoonful of Edward Will
der's Compound Extract of Wild Cherry con-
tains more of the active principle of the Wild
Cherry than any other preparation contains in
q wine-glass full. To this extract is added
other ingredients derived from the vegetable
kingdom, which give an efficiency, activity,
and power to this remedy which justly entitle
it to be called the Destroyer of Coughs, Colds,
Catarrhs, Larangitis, Asthma, Influenza, and
Group. Not one of these affections can with
stand it. They yield instantly to its magic
power. Besides these diseases, it is invaluable
in Pneumonia and Pleurisy. In Bronchitis,
acute and chronic, ii is unfailing, and in the
cough OF Consumption it affords a relief which
no other remedy is capable of doing. LII its
composition summed up all the ingredients
necessary to effect permanent cure, which in
every case is warranted if used according to
directions.

A few of our old settlers will doubt
less remember the subject of the fol-
lowing paragraph from the Common
1ceGlth:
'sThe old settlers of Kansas will re-
member Col. Leonhardt, an enthusiastic
Hungarian, who occupied q prominent
official position in the free state army.
He was brave soldier, sterling free
state man, and red-hot radical-train-
ing with such men as John Brown,
Richie, Abbott and Phillips. He did
valuable service for the free state cause
on the stump and in the field. He set
tied in Lyon county at an early day, but
removed to Iowa in 1860. OF course he
took SIN active part in the war for the
Union. We are pleased to note that he
has removed to Kansas again, having
made farm home in Wabaunsee coun-
ty. He is now in Topeka, and is being
heartily received by his old comrade
and friends
