NOTES FROM ELDURADu.
ELDoRADLJ Jan. l,

ELDoRAD }, Jan. !, 1873
Mr.. John Friend, Of this place,
has just received his lost son fron,
the Comanchs Indians. He was
captured by them i've years ago.
on tho Texas border. Al tho time
Ars. Friend was scalped aud left ror
dead, but happily recovered, and is
now 3 citizen OF EIdOrado. The
boy remembered the tragedy well.
and when the mother exhibited the
scar caused By the brutal sSvages,
be ct once recognized his mother,
whom he supposed was dead. The
boys appearance indicates that his
treatment has been very severce.
He cannot speak word of English.
The boy Yves eight yesrs old when
taken.
They commenced work on the
Bob Tall railroad on Christmas. !
learn that one hundred mon will be
employed on this end, While as man,
more will work on the other, when
the weather will permit.
s. LATER.
A party Of buffalo hunters have
returned, January I'd, from a hunt.
They were ali moro or less FROST
bitten. several with hsnds and feet
frozen. OHe Of the number, a Mr..
Thompson, Q citizen of this PLACE,
was brought home dead. Having
wandered from the camp In search
OF gamo no was oveEt6ken by the
storm and PeEished. In that condi.
ton he was found by his compsn-
ions. Tomorrow they will bury
him by the side OF his wife. who
died some tine ago. He leaves an
only child, . bright little girl OF
seven years, to. mourn his cruel
fate. We know Of no cOnnection
here or elsewhere belonging to the
girl, hence she is fEIendless and LETT
to the mercy Of strangers.
New Years passed OF rather dull.
It rained and slse.ed all day. Late
in the evening e began to snow, bat

BBuTAL.-I learn from good au.
thOrity that murder was commit
ted At Winfield, Cowley county, y
few days ago It appears that two
men, strangers, entered & saloon
and called for drinks. They were
waited upon by the bartender,
(have forgotten his nancy After
drinking they turned to go without
paying. When reminded OF IL one
turned around and shot the saloon
keeper dead. Then both rushed
from the building aud made their
escape. II is supposed that IL was
their way OF pay ing on an old
grudge. The o hers are after them
and IL is hoped that they may bt-
speedily overtaken aud punished.

rHs PENALTY" RUnBUs AGAIN.

Every year, for s0Be time, .
proposition has been introduced into
our legislature to postpone the ten
per cent. penalty for the Aou.psy-
ment Of taxes. Every good citizen
has rejoiced that It has been defeat
cd as often as introduced. This
measure has generally been inauR.
urated by some politician. who
thought he would gain favor with
the people by advocating II. Now,
however, VIC are surprised to see
some OF the newspapers urging it.
The proposition has alWzys, here
tolore, except lSes year, eome Arom
come OF the old-s0ttlsd counties,
such - LeavenWorth or Douglas.
Last year II was introduced into the
Legislature by . roaring orator nom
Southern KANSAS. II Il isintroduo-
ID this year We hope &c will be nncer-
imSusly kicked ont, - IL was last
winter II the Senate. Who asks for
this measure ? Not The people OF
the State, certainly. So far e. our
observation has extended, aad Il has
bean considerable, th6 heavy tax
payers OF the cities are the ones
who have asked for the passage OF
such . law. To our knowledge,
there has never been . single peti-
ton from the farmers and mechan-
ics'asking for its passage. Non who
pay heavy tsxes want the use OF
their money few months longer
without costing them anyIhInR.
They are the Ones who want the
poualty postponed, and they arc &C.
tusted solely BY selfish motives.
Or course We are NOT discussing the
justice Of the penalty or che taxes.
We Si1ply propose TO speak OF the
policy of POsrPoDing the penalty,
aud the effect such postponement
would have upon our finances. By
tho tenth OF January two thirds OF
the people st least, and in the in.
terror counties four-1ifths OF them,
have their taxes paid. The deIIu.
quont tAx.llsts IN this part of the
State are mostly composed OF spec.
ulators, non-rosldentS and ''un-
known" owners. What sort Of ius-
tice would it be, aftsr the large ma
jority Of the rosidents have paid
sheIf taxes, to pOstpOac the penalty
for tho nOn.rosidoats and sDecuia.
aosl By the tlmo the law could be
passed Q good many people will
have paid the penalty. What gin be
done for thsmP Put them end the
treasurer to the trouble Of paying
it baekf
ID most cases the taxes are those
the people have voted upon them
selves. They are burdensome and
It would be . great blessing II they
did not have them to pay. But the
people OF tho State expect to, and = I
large majority Of them DO, come
square up and pay them. They be.
lieve that is the way tS do busiaess.
Ne don't believe they would be any |
better prepared to pay In Nay than
10 January. There are two things

Besides ali this. almost every
school district and county have

The State has done the same. In all
these bonds the people have enter
ed into 9 compact with the pur
chaseFs that a. . certsin fine the ! :
tePest on these bonds should b..
paid. We must keep our cOn'ra :

pOne the penalty. and thereb! the
payment OF the taxes, aud we VIC.
late our pledges, fail TO pay the in-
terest on our bonds AMI damage our
credit abroad aud at home very ma
teriaily.
The passage Of such an act would
be . very bad precedent to Get, be-
cause It would certainly be repeat
ed. Pass such Law aud next year
the people would hold back their
taxes In expectation that the next
legislature would do the Same thing,
aud 'So'it would go from year TO
year. Downright repudiation would
be almost as honorable o PROPOSE
tioa 0s this one to postpone the
penalty for the bene1t Ct the few.
| Bot aside from other TeasOns, We
bslleVe such . lew would be uneon-
stitutionAl. e certainly would g
far - it might effect eur State
bonds. After defining the manne.
In which debts msy be incurred, fol
the purpose Of "defrayin extraor,
binary expenses," making public
Improvement" ETC., the constitution
says:
"And every such law shall pro

such debt, and the principal thereof
when Il shalt becoule due and shall

principal aud interest aud such ap
preparation shalt not be re-
peaIed, nor tke e0r6S p0skpOaed Of
diminishen, until the principal and
interest of such debt shall have beer
wholly paid"
This provision applies directly tC
. large amount OF our outstanding
State bonds.
So, seeing that the people do no
and never have asked for this meas
ure seeIAg that it would work ia.
justice to 9. large majority Of tbs
actual residents; seeing that Il
wosId be an expression OF bad faiit

our whole financial system; seeing
that It would really afford 40 relief
to our people; seeiRg that 1t is IL
violation Of the State Constitution
seeing there Is q general loosen. IS
now about our collection laws By
which we suffer vastly, we do not

the best interests of tie State and
the people, can propose AID advo-
cate such Q measure. II It il

hope Il may meet the fate of Its

More Disguised MilliOnnaires from the
Valleys and Mountains of Italy.
Yesterday the steamship Erin, Of the National
line, brought to our shores large body of exiles
from sunny Italy. Though accredited in some
quarters with being counts (they number male
and female, 55O) OF decayed but ancient families,
the greater part are, without doubt, only barren
OF cash. This does not prevent them from
being "all honorable men," and after a
careful inspection Of the palms OF many, az they
were extended outward, no 'hOrny hands OF
Italian government, at Five Points House OF In.
dustry on Monday night last were visible. In fact,
all the males were evidently gentlemen In reduced
circumstances, and the females are entitled to
honorable mention for having the courage TO share
their fortunes. The children came In the natural
course OF events.
EN- ROUTE TO BUENos AYREs.
These e1ntUees, who ruthlessy tore themselves
the e sntreaties of government oIicials that they
would remain to honor their land by their presence,

sailed" But through some dread fatality
that seems to follow all Italians who
forced by trining misunderstanding on the part
OF 'the shipping agents. to pursue route leading
last case If only for the sake of variety Il may be
well to imagine that the Erin was bound for South
America but was forced out OF her course and so
far north as this port by the great storms that have
prevailed on the Atlantic.
