sp The CASE OF THE FISHING SCHOONER Emo
OLA C.-Mra Samuel Collins, one of the char
terers and crew of the fishing schooner Enola
c. of Gloucester, seized in Trinity Bay by the
cutter Stella Maria for alleged illegal fishing,
arrived home at Gloucester Friday and has
sworn to an affidavit of the particularssof the
seizure before Collector Babson Of that port,
which has been forwarded to the proper au-
thorities at Washington. The affidavit sets
forth the following facts: The Enola G. was at
anchor; was not fishing and had not been fish
ing in shore; that she was boarded by the cap
tain Of the cutter Stella Maria, who engaged in
friendly conversation; that Capt. Cunningham
asked the captain Of the cutter in regard to the
treaty, as he would not fish in shore until as
sured heihad a right to do SO; that the captain
OF the cutter replied that the treaty had passed
Parliament by a large majority and that in his
opinion there would would he no trouble in
fishing in shore; the captain of the cutter said
his was not revenue vessel, but a lighthouse
tender and had nothing to do with the fisheries
that some of the crew boarding the cutter ask
ed what the brass gun was for on board a light
vessel, and was told that it was to be put Oh
Bird Rock as signal gun; that acting on these
assurances the Enola @, proceeded to fish the
next day, and that the captain of the cutter
came down stream and lay in ambush as he
afterward informed them, from noon until six
O'Clock in the evening, waiting for the wind to
die away SO that the schooner could not escape
when with three indians and seven other white
men, all armed, he came alongside and boarded
the schooner; that he then read his commission
and took charge of the vessel, ordering one of
his men to the wheel; that when charged with
his duplicity by Capt Cunningham he replied
that he had no right to give Americans infor- 3
nation, they must look out for themselves
The schooner was taken to Farther Point. Tel
egranis were exchanged with the authorities at
Ottawa and the schooner was lowed to Quebec

The Leavenworth & Denver Railroad
'the narrow GAUGES to be very properly
made "a feature" in the coming grand cole
bration. And this is right. The narrow
gauge road is an enterprise secondly in i'm
portance to the town only 10 the bridge, and
it is eminently right and proper, that it
should have prominent place on the pro-
Rramme. Being the only road of this kind
in the United States il will he as much
matter of curiosity 10 the people as the bridge,
and as it i. peculiarly our own enterprise, it
is very appropriate that we should make
formal demonstration in honor OF its inaugu-
ration, while the people ofthe State are here
in thousands to join with Us. The bridge /
a work for the special benefit Of the city and
the roads approaching us from the east, but
the marrow gauge" is work for the whole
State; when its main stem is completed,
trayersing the entire length Of the State from
east to west, and its projected lateral branches
running out to north and south, from various
points along the line, it will lie one Of the
most. important enterprises in Kansas its
benefits will not be confined to any one local
ity, but it will be State institution, and it
is highly proper that the people Of the State
should join with US in celebrating its insugu-
ration. The Bridge and the Narrow Gauge

nection with the east, and the other is the
beginning of our most perfect connection with

THE PEACE Foley.

"Peace hath her victories, no less Ienown-
ell than war,"-so the poet said, and the re-
mark contains full AZ much truth as poetry.
Leavenworth got her first start through the
war, and in some way-perhaps naturally
her people seem to have ''got a notion" al
hat time that her prosI er.ty was TO !be pre-
longed and perpeiuated by war, and as soon
as there was no longer a common enemy to
be fought, they went to fighting one another.
This foolish policy was, unfortunately, KEPT
up entirely too long until We had fought
away many golden oPportuniiies-but the
people are now generally satisfied that tight
ing among themselves is mistake-that ii
We can't have things our way, it is better to
have them our neighbor's way than TO not
have them at all. And the effect Of this
"new leaf" which we have recently turned
over, is to he seen on every hand-tl'e fruits
of the new policy are already visible in the
progress of our railway enterprises, in the
revival Of improvements Of all kinds, in
our improved trade, in the greatly increas-
ell activity OF business, and in every indica-
ton Of general material prosperity. Then

EnlrnRIAL EXCuRSION.

The Fort Scott Monitor makes suggestion
which will undoubtedly he heartily seconded
by every faper in the Stale, e., an excnr'
sion of the Kansas editors to Philadelphia at
the time Of the Republican National Conven-
ton. This is likely tostrike one, at first, as
a s'big thing" but as Kansas editors are used
to doing big things there is nothing visionary
or imprac,icable about it, and We agree with
the Monitor that ''if the editors Of Kansas say
they wan, to go Philadelphia, they will go,
and lie splendidly received everywhere"
We second the motion; "a palace car tram
for the entire trip, with Niagara Falls and
the Natural Bridge for side shows" seems to
US to be Just about the thing, but we don I
think such an expedition as that, from Kan
sas, could discharge its whole duty without
visiting Harper's Ferry, and singing "John
Brown" on the sacred soil of Old Virginia.

PUBLIC CONFIDENCE.

Citizens Of Leavenwsrth never felt more
confidence in the future Of this town than
they feel to-day. In times past there has
prevailed among 4 class Of our people,
spirit Of despordency-a lack Of faith in the
future-which was no. only discouraging in
avery great degree, 10 these interested in the
town, but had the effect Of driving away all
outsiders. A man locking for good point
at which 10 locite and 60 in:o business, is
not likely to invest his means in town in
which those most inteie.ted have no faith;
If tho,e who are here all seem TO lie dis
couraeed and anxious 10 get away, the stranger
very readily and naturally concludes that ii
i. prudent to profit by their experience, and
% away while he can. But such spirit Of
discontent is not now to be found among our
people, and the very fact that everybody
looks and talks hopefully, is OF inestimable
value to us-it causes strangers 10 locate with
Us, encourages our own people TO 60 ahead
with public and private improvements, and
is sufficient, of itself, to make shines lively"

FULL OF GOODS.

The merchants of Kansas will End the
metropolis, this spring, full Of goods; our
merchants have never before purchased 20
largely, and as our railroad connections with
all parts Of the State are now as good AZ the
bert, Leavenworth offers better inducements
than any of her rivals, to the country trade.
The fact that all our shrewdest dealers, ard
those who know best how to gauge the mar
ket, have jus. about doubled their usual
stocks this spring, shows that they anticipate
q very large increase in the trade, and that
their e1pections must have some solid basis,
for a prudent business man don't buy goods
unless he knows how he is going to sell. but
Notwithstanding the big stock already re-
ceived, some of our largest dealers inform
us that their calculations have been much
below, rather than above the demand, and
that to meet the rapidly increasing trade,
large additions 10 their present stocks will
be necessary. This . healthy indication.

THAT ELEVATOR.

Whit has become of the enterprise talked
of a few weeks ago, Of establishing grain
elevator on the site of the Montauk Mills?
We have heard nothing OF il for some time
past, but it should not be permitted TO call
through" The place spoken of is just the
one of all others for an institution OF this
kind, AMI we presume the property could be
bought now at a very reasonable tgure-for
much less than will he asked for 1t few
months hence. The business already done
at Leavenworth in grain would pay an estab-
lishment Of this character, while the addi-
tional advantages il would offer to shippers
would tend to largely increase the trade.
The new and improved railroad facilities
that we now enjoy, will make the gain trade
at this point much heavier in the future than
il has ever been in the past, and We do moi
know of an opening anywhere, giving better
promise of good return than the proposed
elevator. Let it go ON.

The New York World has considerably
modified and stoned down" its late strenu-
Gus demands for straight Democratic
ticket" and since the election in New
Hampshire seems to be quite ready to fuse
with the Liberals. In its issue OF last Sat-
urday, the World, after succinctly defining
its position, and declaring its willingness to
cooperate with the Liberals and support
their nominee, thus indicates its first choice:
We will not dissemble that our own opin-
ion of Governor Brown is also very favOra-
bic. Next to his being thoroughly sincere
and honest man, We think the best point in
his favor is his undoubted nerve and political
courage. He is AZ far removed as any man
in public life from any suspicion of being a
time-server. His antecedents make him the
httest representative in the country of
combination between Liberal Republicans
and Literal Democrats. The Cincinnati
Convention is an outgrowh Of the Missouri
election of 1870, in which Governor Brown
vas the standard-bearer. But whether he or
some other Liberal Republican shall be the
candidate of the combined opposition TO
Grant, j. question which We are content to
leave 70 the uninfrenced decision of the
Cincinnati Convention. Governor Brown Is
a candidate for whom Democrats would have
no difficulty in voting; but If the Cincinnati
Convention proves to be strong BODY Win
a powerful constituency to back it, Demo
Gratis will not quarrel with 1t on mere points
of personal preference.

~axuYA~ORlH.

We have already said, times without num-
Der, tia, the permanent prosperity Of our
town mus, depend in great measure upon
our manuiactories-tha We CANT all live BY
selling TO one smother, but must make some
thing. Though everybody, We prerume, adj
mits the truth Of all this, it is necessary to
s'keep i, before the People''-like news
paper advertisement, one or two publications
will no: generally do much good-it needs
to be seen every day, and all the time-and
this is our excuse for SO frequently recurring
to the yery important question of manufac'
lures. The man who manufactures, at
home IN article for which We have hereto
FIRE been obliged to send abroad, Is bene-
factor 10 the town in double sense-hs fur
nishes employment, for men who would
no, otherwise remain there, and keeps al
home, in circulation among our own people,
the money that heretofore went abroad.
Several new enterprises Of this character
have been established in Leavenworth re-
Gently, but We still have room for more. A
company with moderate capital, was o.
ganizeJ some months ago, to start an estab
lishment for manufacturing carpets; thes'
works .-e now in foil operation, are turn
ing out two and three-ply carpets OF al
kinds, which, in style and finish, are not ii
any respect inferior TO the best eastern o
foreign goods; every yard they make Is al
sorbed by the market as soon as it Is ready
and though the works have only been in op
Grafton abou. a month, they have turne
out ten thousand dollars worth Of good
and consequently that amount Of money h'
been retained at home, instead of being ser
abroad 10 eastern manufacturers. But th
field is not fuIl-,here is still an abundant
of room-and scores Of other manufactu
ing establishments might be opened vii
, like suocess-wiih profit to those engage
auj to the general benefit Of the town.

ElsEWHERE m KANSAS.

Our exchanges in all parts Of the State say
"Leavenworth has taken new lease Of life"
they chronicle the fact that The TINES
comes to them brim full Of good words for
the town, and without single exception the
papers OF the State profess their beliefthat
the Metropolis is now entering upon season
Of prosperity such as she has never seen be-
fore, even in her palmiest days. And they
very generally understand the reason
for the faith that is in them: Our railroad
facilities, which have been steadily improv-
ing and extending, for some years past, now
enable us to reach our customers in all parts
of the State, without any delay on the road.
The people Of the State have always desired
to deal with Leavenworth merchants, and
have only bought at other points because OF
the..dif6culty in getting to and from this city.
But all this is past and Leavenworth is no
lon.er tout of the way."

.xor,1CR STEP FoRWARD.

The General Superintendent Of the Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific lines has given
official directions to the officers in charge Of
the Le,yenworih division Of the road. to
carry all freigL,s and passengers bound west
Of the Missouri, to Leavenworth, hereafter,
instead Of to Kansas City, as has heretofore
been the practice This is another step in
the right direction, and another proof that
things are working" Heretofore, owing
to the bridge a, Kansas City, and the sspe-
rior facilities which were thus afforded for
crossing the river, everything destined for
the Kansas Pacific road was taken by the
C.,R.I. & l.. road to Kansas City, and de-
delivered 10 the X. p. at that place. But
hereafter all through freight and passengers
will be delivered at Leavenworth, and as the
bulk of the Kansas Pacific business from
Chicago comes over our road, this new ar
ransement will add largely to the business o.
our branch OF the X. z. The time is moi
far distant when the "Branch' Of the X. r
will be known as the main line. The chang
in this respect, referred to by US few day
ago, will take place ere many months.
