OWING An APOLOGY

Some weeks ago the Commonwealth pub
lished . statement that Judge Dillon had
condemned openly in court, an article which
appeared in this paper under the caption OF
1.-THE Judgment Day has Come" The
statement of the Commonwealth was most in.
famously falee in every particular. Judge
Dillon simply made an explanation of the
'Brown case" at the request of one of the
attorneys for the defence, and the editor Of
the Commonwealth in unseemly haste to graf
ify personal feeling Of revenge and obtain
favor with Gov. Osborn circulated the ma
iicious report. But that is past now, and
owing to the limited circr'ltiJn of the Com
xaon.ealM the lie didn't travel far. How.
ever We now desire the people Of Kansas to
note the fact that We have published in full
the decree of the court in the case, and our
assailants dare not do the same thing.
The Commonwealth has had very little te
say on the subject of late, although it just
broke the monotonous silence last Thursday
By iatimating that The TINES owed Messrs
Osborn, Mcdowell and Delahay an apollo
~. If the claim for an apology is an hon.
ct one, the Commonwealth and the gentle
men defended by it will have to look &c
Judge Dillon's Court for its payment. We
did owe it to our readers to furnish all the
facts in the Brown case'' and that debt We
have faithfully discharged. The Common.
scealtk likewise owes its readers the same
thing, but peculiar embarrassment, which
never troubles newspaper, but frequently
vexes IN organ, prevents the estate Paper
from paying the honest debt.

The perpetuation of the political power
of Leavenworth depends on the action Of
liz Representatives in the present Senatorial
fight. We have Senator and Governor
from this place, who depend on the Gu oPe'-
alton of other localities for their power in
their respective positions. Leavenworth
will undoubtedly claim the succession for, at
least, one of these positions, and it is wisdom
IN make no mistake now that will lose
everything.
However much we wouid like it, all the
political power OF the State cannot be con-
cen,ra,ed here. To attempt it Is suicidal, as
it would pu, US in opposition to the remain
der Of the State. All the injury Leaven
worth has ever received was owing to an IN
happy faculty our Representatives possessed
Of warning against every interes, outside o
our own. Let us, therefore, in the presen
fight, give stchison or Lawrence, Southern
| Kansas or Western Kansas fair show 70
political power. For the good Of Leaven
worth and her Senator and Governor "
beg our Legisla' never to allow privat
ambition to interfere with our metropolitan
interests. Let u, instead, harmonic wit
our neighbors and secure the co-operatio
oftheir Senator in all laudable efforts to in
crease the importance of Leavenworth.

rRANsP0RTAGIo ROUTE 10 THE
ATLANTIC SEA BOARD.

Senator Sawyer is now preparing bill,
which he will shortly introduce for reference
to the new Committee on Transportation to
the Seaboard, providing for granting the
right of way to the Eastern and Western
Transportation Company. The preamble
of this bill will set forth the important prob
lem as to how to obtain cheap transportation
from the Uper Valley OF the Mississippi to
the Atlantic Ocean, and urge the necessity
Of constructing frst-class railroad four feet
eight and one-half inches gauge, built aud
heavy freight with rapidly and economy.
1t is proposed 10 run the new road from
Port Royal; Beaufort County, South Carroll
ma to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, with a
branch road to st. Louis, divergins in
Missouri near the Arkansas boundary line
at the thirty-sixth parallel. The route
from the South Carolina seaboard through
Chatham, Efingham, Tatnall, Twiggs and
Travis counties, Georgia; Randolph, Jetier-
son and Monroe counties, Alabama; ltaw-
amba, Marshall and De Soto counties, Mis-,
sissippi; Shelby county, Tennessee; Critten-
den, Cross, Poinse,t, Sharp and Fulton
counties, Arkansas; Oregon, Howell, Texas,
Laclede, Benton, Cass and Jackson counties,
Missouri; Wyandoae and Leavenworth
Counties, Kansas, indicate the course Of the
main road, while Po~ell, Sherman and
Jefferson counties, Missouri, indicate the
course of the St. Louis branch. 1t is claim
ed that as soon as the necessary grants Of
right OF way can be obtained from the Coy
ernment and the States, enough English
capitalists stand ready to build the road.

II Is strange that the opponents Of Sena'
ator Pomeroy constantly try to convince the
Legislature and the public that he is corrupt,
and yet announce boldly that they have
money and other corrupt means to defeat
him. They hold up their hands in holy
horror at corruption, and yet publish that
they are supplied with money to defeat Pom.
eroy and his friends. We still believe that
Pomeroys friends are masters Of the situa.
ton this announcement of the corrupt de-
signs of his opponets having made him many
advocates. He needs no money, his value

LOUIS NAPOLEON.

The history of Louis Napoleon reads like
a romance. The nephew of the greatest
warrior of modern times, he had none Of
the elements of victory that Napoleon the
Great possessei. The New York vagabond
became the T.-sident Of France, the London
policeman made himself Emperor.
France under his reign reached a fictitious
importance, but the late war was the de.
structioa of all the grand hopes of the EN-.
pi,.. With defeat came Louis Napolesn's
exile, and the establishment of the Republic,
amid scenes of blood that We hope will
never be re-enacted. By his death, the
friends of Republican France in the Cnite'
States, hope for the firm establishment o.
the Republic. We trust their hopes will BE-
realized, but let them recollect that no Re
public was ever established except by educa'
tion and liberation,
