THE PUBLIC LIBRARY OF KENTUCKY.
Second Grand Gift Concert.
DAY OF THE DRAWING FIXED.
No Postponement from September IS.

To the public:
The Trustees of the Public Library of Kentucky
being satisfied from the large sale oftckets already
made, and the daily increasing demand for them,
that there will be no occasion for postponing the
second drawing in the Gilt Concert In aid of the
Public Library of Kentucky, have instructed me,
as their agent and manager OF the GIFT Concert to
ing will positively take place on September 2sth
prox., and will not be postponed. An active de.
mand for tickets from every State and Terri.
tory of the United States, and from the Canadas,
giving assurance to the Trustees that no crcum-
stances can prevent drawing at the appointed
time.
A sufficient clerical force is engaged to keep up
with the orders for tickets and in order that this
Office may be relieved Of the Immense pressure
diately preceding the drawing, agents especially
and those DESTROYS of procuring tickets, are re
quested to send in their orders Immediately sales
viii have to be closed in time make the
preparations for the drawing. 1t is the wish of the
management to fill every order Tor q ticket as well
to sell all the tickets but those who apply first
must first be supplied and, if those who put of
buying until sales closed, have their money Ie-
turned instead Of the tickets ordered in the hrs.
Gilt Concert In December last, when thousands Of
dollars that came too late sent back, they will
have none to blame but themselves.

THE EPIDEMIC OF CRIME.

The New York papers and other journals
are wondering much Of late over the un-
precedented prevalence of crime. They
seem to forget that the careful details OF
murder, robbery, swindling, arson, and so
forth, as given in their columns day by day,
have direct tendency upon the morbid
minds of the imaginative, the unbalanced,
the depraved, the drunken, to induce an
initiative repetition Of these acts. If a
journalist is so ignorant that he is not aW are
of this tendency, he has missed his voca-
ton He would 90 better for himself and
the public should he cease to be a writer
and become reader and student. But the
gentlemen OF the press cannot plead lgnor-
ance. Their minds so acute on other sub
ects, are not obtuse on this. They are
well aware of the power of words in type.
They know that the printing press possesses
''-thc art Napoleon
OF winning lettering, moulding, welding, bending
The hearts of millions till they move as one"
And with this knowledge they cannot hold
themselves entirely guitless while continu-
ing to publish daily all the vile details Of
the vIlest crimes.
The excuses made for these reproduce
tions of wicked scenes before the public
Imagination are entirely worthless and will
not bear an honest examination. The real
reason is that these publications bring in
money, and SO will anything that panders
to the depraved tastes Of mankind.
But if this evil principle is to prevail in
the press of the land, and the epidemic Of
crime continue sweeping off its ten thou
sands, there must yet come the cry Give
us liberty of the press that like other lib
erty, is regulated by law"

UNFAIRNESS OF H. S. d. d. OPPOSITION TO
TILE SII CROLY LIND GR1NT

| UNFA IRNESS OF Ia. S. d; ~ OPPOSIIION ~
THE ST CROLK LAND GRANT.
Opposition to the renewal Of the St. Croix
land grant to the State of Wisconsin, comes
with very bad grace from the spectators
who try to borrow the name of Minnesota
as a shield to their operations, and who are
really actuated by their interest in perpet-
uating the L. S. 81 NJ. r. II. monopoly. The
following official statement Of the number
of acres granted four prominent western
states for railroad aid during the last TWEEN
ty years, shows that other states were
granted far more than Wisconsin originally,
and it would certainly be unjust legislation
that should now take back anything what
ever from her unequal share, especially if
this be done in the name of Minnesota.
Look at 1t:
Iowa ,526,727 acres.
Wisconsin ,77S,36O
Minnesota a--------------------9,IS IS3,4O5
Kansas --------------9, 100000
And in a tabular statement of the amount
realized per mile from sales of granted lands
on twenty-five different railroad lines, it ap-
pears that only three have made more mon
ey from government generosity than the l..
S. 81 NJ. r. r. These three were the Bur
linoton 6 Mo. River K. r. (Nebraska), the
Flint & Pere Marquette Road (M:ch.) and
the Union Pacific r. r., the latter only ex-
ceeding the gains of the L. S. & NJ. by
few hundred dollars per mile. The follow
ing shows the price per acre and rate per
mile Of the L. S. & VI. compared with three
Pacific roads:
per per mile.
Lake Superior & Miss, -s4 S. S53,o94
Union Pacific -------------4 2l----53,S S86
Denver Pacific lS----59,3j4
Kansas Pacific Observation-Disclosures O1----39,296
The average amount realized per mile
on the twenty-five roads was $4,000 (and
a little oveD The average cost of railways
per mile in this country is about 544 600.
Land grants thus have on an average built
so per cent Of the railways aided. But the
L. s. 81 II. r. r. realized far above this aver
age per mile for her sales The land grant
she enjoyed yielded over 900 per mile,
enough with right management to build the
whole line Of l56 miles, and net the com
pany a million and half Of dollars to start
with. Why that is any reason for taking
away a large slice ot Wisconsin's land
grant pittance, or remanding the whole
northwestern portion of this State to its
primeval wilderness condition, we fail to
sce The state Of Minnesota has had a no
bic portion Of the public domain; the Lake
Superior & Mississippi r. r. has been built
and endowed richly by national generosity;
Jay Cooke has been paid ten times over
already, and will be paid hundred fold by
the syndicate business. Why then allow
these names to plead poverty and whatnot,
and rob poor Wisconsin of property justly
her own? Let Congress aaoaheo to the facts
and do us at least, the tardy justice Of re-
2aeUinq the 81. CrOir grant.
